hueyview Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Just seen this... Makes you feel for Hamilton... At least Rangers internationals crooks get blazers for their trouble.. Jokes aside..

Jamboelite Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 They arent going to mention anything on an active investigation. Perhaps the police told them not to. if the amount is £80k thats bad but recoverable. Guarantee the vermin will be all over this with the “poppy thieves getting just deserts” chat.

Thought Police Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 They've probably announced it now because it's relevant and they're saying it's hit a few clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's possible quite a few clubs could have been affected if it's an organized scam on football clubs. So rival fans should hold their fire until the full picture becomes clear.

Perth to Paisley Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Wonder if it had anything to do with multiple duplicate tickets that appeared coincidentally against Celtic and Rangers?
