    Police probe Rangers fan's Twitter 'threat' to Stephen Thompson

    Police are investigating claims that Dundee United chairman Stephen Thompson has been threatened by a Rangers fan on a social networking site.

    Mr Thompson is also alleged to have been subjected to sectarian comments and abusive remarks about his late father and predecessor, Eddie Thompson.

    It is understood Tayside Police visited the United chairman after concerns for his safety were raised.
    Rangers owe the Dundee club ticket money from a recent Scottish Cup tie.

    The debt from the game, which was played in Glasgow, is thought to amount to almost £100,000.
    However, Dundee United officials and fans are concerned the club will not receive the money after Rangers went into administration last week.

    Referring to the alleged Twitter threats, a spokeswoman for Tayside Police said: "We can confirm we are aware of the matter and are investigating it."

    Apparently, the Ayrshire bombers are starting their trial this week.

    Let's hope, if found guilty, they get lengthy prison sentences <ok>

    Well in that case he's an arsehole and deserves all he has coming unless of course Lafferty and the others brought it on themselves.

    Did that guy warrant a thread on the Rangers board? Apparently, so.

    Should this then be three threads on the Celtic board?

    Was I?

    I was not on any kind of horse nor was I on the "moral high ground", I was simply commenting on a topical News story that concerned Thomson. I passed no comment and likewise I neither condemned nor acted outraged at the story.

    What it has to do with the tale you mentioned I don't know. Both acts are to be condemned if true but one of these was only reported today while another (your one) has already been reported ( A MONTH AGO) and had a thread written about it, so is it to be cast up again every time someone allegedly receives threats from Rangers fans?

    If someone outwith the Gers fanbase threatens someone at Rangers in future should I just regurgitate this story to show that two wrongs do make a right?

    By that you mean it's the end of your discussion because you argument has been ripped to shreds.

    If you're going to pretend you never took the moral high ground then there is no point in continuing the argument is there?
