THOUSANDS of protesters are planning a"campaign of disruption" at Hampden in defiance of a decision by the Scottish Football Association to play a match against Israel at Hampden next week behind closed doors.that pro-Palestine activists have been trying to find ways to get round ticketing rules to enter Hampden as part of the demonstration.
The pro-Palestine campaign group Gaza Genocide Emergency Committee, which has been soliciting for tickets, are preparing a stunt at Hampden as part of a continued protest at the game on May 31. It is understood that to appease the protesters and refuse to play the games would result in two forfeited matches and Scotland's Women would lose 3-0 twice.Ticket sales for Friday’s game had previously been limited to members of the official Scotland Supporters Club or to those to have attended previous women’s matches to reduce the risk of anti-Israeli protests.
"Despite it being the world's longest... occupation , Israel is allowed to compete without exception in world events. "As a head coach, I am not in control of these circumstances," he said."Focus remains on qualifying for the Euros and giving the best to the team and protecting the players to ensure we can perform to the best level.
"Whether I'm comfortable or not from my personal view, the job has to be done for Scotland and I remain focused on the role."
