MEP invited to Glasgow for talks over Rangers fans’ famine chants

FIANNA FÁIL MEP Eoin Ryan has agreed to visit Scotland as anger grows over sectarian singing at football matches.

Mr Ryan accepted the invitation after hitting out in the European Parliament at fans who chant a song which refers to the Irish famine of the 1840s, which killed an estimated one million people.

Rangers fans have been warned they face arrest if they are caught singing The Famine Song, which features the line: “The famine is over, why don’t you go home?”
