Rangers fan jailed after scarring Celtic physio for life with bottle at Ibrox match

A Rangers fan who scarred a Celtic physio for life after throwing a bottle at him during an Old Firm game has been jailed for 12 months.

Alan Crawford, 33, of Grangemouth, launched the missile from the west enclosure at Ibrox Stadium on April 3, 2022. It struck Daniel Friel on the head causing a bleeding wound which required four stitches.

Celtic would go on to win the tie 2-1 with Cameron Carter-Vickers netting the winner in the first half. Crawford pled guilty at Glasgow Sheriff Court to assaulting Mr Friel to his severe injury and permanent disfigurement.
