Falkirk will ‘learn lessons’ after alleged Rangers crowd disorder

“Following yesterday’s match, many Falkirk fans have contacted us about away fans obtaining tickets for the home end and the behaviour of these fans, which included a steward requiring medical attention.

“We have also received complaints about sectarian singing from a large proportion of away fans.

“Football is passionate, but none of this is acceptable. We condemn all of the aforementioned incidents.

“We therefore apologise to our fans for the deeply unpleasant experience they were subjected to.

“Falkirk FC will work with Police Scotland, stewarding partners, our colleagues at other clubs, the SPFL and SFA, and endeavour to improve the experience for our fans.

“The club already had a robust plan in place for the final game of the season, with enhanced measures in place given the potential significance of the fixture.

“We are now considering further the implications of yesterday’s incidents for future matches against Rangers, including security and ticketing arrangements, and will inform our fans once a decision has been taken.”

In an additional post on X, Falkirk chief executive Jamie Swinney said: “We apologise profusely to our fans for what occurred within our ground yesterday.

“I assure all of our fans that lessons will be learned & that we will consider a variety of measures to control what we can control for future games.”
