It is still massive,” said David Kaplan, a Jewish supporter of Heart of Midlothian, an Edinburgh club historically associated with the Protestant population. “Every club in Scotland has a religious affiliation in Scotland. Even if they don’t admit it, they all do.” Historically, most Jews have supported the Rangers and Hearts (the shorthand for Heart of Midlothian). When Jews arrived as immigrants from Eastern Europe in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, their children mostly adopted the teams of their friends and classmates. Most of them sent their children to Protestant schools, Kaplan explained, because they were more open to a range of students, in opposition to Catholic schools, which were focused on Catholic students.

Rangers have since 'condemned' the use of the image and the flag within the stadium. Police Scotland has confirmed that enquiries are still ongoing. A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Officers were made aware of a banner at a football match at Ibrox Stadium on Saturday, 30 September, 2023. The 29-year-old later told police that he did not do a Nazi salute but a gesture for the "hand and the Crown."

The problems preoccupying Scotland’s aging Jewish core — that its youth are bleeding away to Britain’s Jewish capitals London and Manchester in search of opportunities and are not returning — are common in smaller Jewish communities across the United Kingdom. Around 150 personnel from the UK Armed Forces, including representatives from the Army and Navy, were in attendance for the match.The 'death head', which was used by the 3rd SS Panzer Division Totenkopf during WWII who committed racially motivated massacres in France, was seen on a flag on September 30. Members of the army, Royal Air Force and navy were also in attendance at Ibrox to celebrate armed forces day. The emblem, known as “death’s head,” was used by the 3rd SS panzer division during the second world war – known for committing a slew of war crimes including the murder of millions of people at concentration camps. Had Third Lanark survived, it might have developed into a team with a reputation for Jewish support, much like Tottenham in England. In the 1920s and 1930s, Third Lanark, situated near a Jewish neighborhood, even fielded one of the very few Scottish Jewish professional footballers, Sam Latter. As late as 1960, the Jewish Chronicle reported that a quarter of the 6,000-strong crowd at Third Lanark’s stadium were Jews. There is this grouping that have this narrative that Celtic is all about Irish republicanism and that they speak for Celtic,” said Lord Ian Livingston, a Jewish member of Britain’s parliament and a former Celtic board member director. “If you are saying that you side with the oppressed against the strong, with anti-imperialist forces against imperialism, then this is an easy leap for them.”

The trial heard from PC Mark Boyd, 31, who was working on the segregation area between the two sets of fans. Josh Smith made the taunt at Ibrox Stadium during the club's Europa League semi-final clash versus RB Leipzig earlier this year. Sheriff Anthony Deutsch said after finding him guilty: "I regard this as serious, I wonder what the Leipzig fans thought. The tie went to 2-2 and it was on a knife edge - I was merely signalling we would not surrender and continue to fight."

Police Scotland have opened an investigation into reports of an offensive flag being displayed at Ibrox on Saturday, September 30. Jews felt that they were caught in the middle,” said Harvey Kaplan of the Scottish Jewish Archives Centre in Glasgow. “Jews also probably had less bother because… Protestants and Catholics were more likely to be fighting each other.” Celtic’s two Israeli players at the time — Nir Bitton, left, and Liel Abada — hold the Scottish Premiership Trophy after a match between Celtic and Motherwell at Celtic Park in Glasgow, May 14, 2022.
