AN OLD firm bigot was jailed for four months by a sheriff who slammed him for bringing shame on Glasgow.
Scott Lamont, was heard by police singing the words "Up to our knees in Fenian blood" on Cathcart Road on February 1.
The 24-year-old from Glasgow, pled guilty at the city's sheriff court after spending the night in the cells.
He was warned at the time that he was facing jail for his crime.
Lamont was sentenced to four months in prison, reduced from six and given an 18 month football banning order.
Sheriff Paul Crozier told his lawyer Joanne Gray: "Glasgow has developed a good reputation in recent years.
"We had the Commonwealth Games last summer, we haven't had an Old Firm game in years.
"What happened at the first Old Firm game? People like him let Glasgow down."
