Erm yeah right, thats clearly the case in the above links. And is he remotely suggesting we've got it fundamentally wrong about Rangers and Celtic and theres a lovey dovey feeling with this chilled out attitude at the derby matches?
But given he is a politician Im kind of not surprised by the blinkered attitude and ignoring all the negative stuff.

I think you'll find the quote came before the incidents were reported in the media. At least that's the way it's been reported here.
Whilst I'm no fan of the First Minister he has taken a high profile stand against sectarianism over the years and in particular the sort evidenced by Celtic and Rangers.
