Rangers release a pre-St. Mirren statement warning of disciplinary action…
It is against the law to use flares and pyrotechnics at sporting arenas, and supporters who do so run the danger of being arrested, according to Rangers.
The announcement was made following the official warning given to Gers supporters for an ostentatious pyrotechnics display during a recent victory over Dundee.
A plethora of flaming flares billowed smoke onto the park, forcing both Rangers and Dundee players to leave the field of play after traffic had already delayed the game.
Rangers send warning on pyrotechnics
Rangers have expressed their apologies for the Dens Park incident and forewarned supporters that the team may face disciplinary action from the SPFL following an inquiry.
The assertion reads as follows:
Rangers FC wants to warn fans that using pyrotechnics inside sports stadiums is not only prohibited but also dangerous as they get ready for an intense month of games.
Football fines may be imposed on the team, and fans who bring pyrotechnics to games run the danger of being arrested.
Rangers expressed remorse for the pyrotechnics display at Dens Park last month, which set off the fire alarm and forced a temporary suspension of our game against Dundee FC.
This prompted the SPFL to launch an inquiry, and it has now placed Rangers in a situation where a repeat could result in the club facing disciplinary action.
Rangers will maintain a constructive dialogue regarding this issue with the Scottish FA, Police Scotland, the SPFL, and the Scottish Government.
The club would like to thank all of its supporters for their wonderful and continuous help during this hectic match season.
Ultras culture across Europe
Although the Dundee Pyrotechnics show was highly daring, it’s crucial to emphasize that other parties are also at the center of the controversy besides the Ibrox Club.
Scotland is not the only nation going through a revolution of sorts, with the spread of Ultras culture around Europe having an effect of its own.
However, as using pyrotechnics is prohibited in Scotland, supporters are breaking the law, and Rangers are obviously under pressure to take action.
Even though flares and pyrotechnics can make a powerful statement, Scottish football is obviously not ready for them, and spectators are advised not to light them inside the stadium.
