The 40th Anniversary of the Ibrox Stadium Disaster
The motion
That the Parliament remembers the 66 football supporters who died in the Ibrox Stadium disaster on 2 January 1971; conveys its sincere condolences to the families and friends of those who lost their lives on that day; notes that a memorial service will be held to mark the 40th anniversary at the stadium on 3 January 2011 and that the former Rangers and Celtic captains, John Greig and Billy McNeill, will lead out the teams before the traditional New Year's Old Firm game as a mark of respect, and looks forward to both clubs and their supporters putting sporting rivalries to one side and coming together to remember those who died that day.
