Rangers row prompts 'get your house in order' comment to clubs from First Minister

First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has warned football clubs to 'get your house in order" after further allegations of Covid breaches emerged, surrounding Rangers.

The Ibrox club are alleged to have had several players attend a lockdown party that was broken up by police.

Ms Sturgeon said she didn't care what club is involved, but said that all clubs must make sure they are following the rules.

She said: "It's really unfair to the vast majority of people in the country who don't have the privilege that elite sportspeople have.

"So can I say to football and sport in general, please make sure your house is in order, because it shouldn't take me standing here to say to highly-paid footballers 'you've got to follow the rules'.

"It really shouldn't take that, but the fact it does is hugely frustrating to me."

Ms Sturgeon added: "It takes me all my time not to stand here and use expletives whenever I have to speak about football again."
