SPFL chiefs have come under fire from anti-bigotry charity Nil By Mouth for lagging behind in their efforts to tackle sectarianism.
The group have accused league bosses of routinely ignoring the issue and insist UEFA's punishment on Rangers shows strict liability IS the way forward.
It comes after Rangers were ordered to close a section of Ibrox for next week's Europa League clash with Legia Warsaw after UEFA came down hard on sectarian chants heard during the win over St Joseph's last month.
Ibrox will be 3000 supporters down for the return fixture with a place in the lucrative group stages at stake.
Rangers warned fans who refuse to stop singing sectarian songs they aren't welcome at Ibrox with the threat of total stadium closure on the cards if the problem doesn't go away.
Nil By Mouth have welcomed UEFA 's move. And they have claimed European football's governing body have shown the SPFL the way.
Campaign Director Dave Scott said: “This shows how far our league is behind Europe in tackling sectarianism in football.
"This stuff happens routinely in our grounds — but it’s routinely ignored, glossed over and they don’t want to confront it.
“Neil Doncaster said strict liability doesn’t work but Uefa think it does — and Rangers have accepted the punishment. We have strict liability in Europe, zero liability in Scotland.”
The SPFL have declined to comment.
Strict liability is a measure which would involve holding clubs liable for the actions of their supporters.
However Scottish clubs are against the idea and a BBC Scotland poll of the 42 senior clubs showed only three were in favour - Partick Thistle, Queen of the South and Annan Athletic.
A total of 14 clubs said they were against strict liability, 17 were not willing to comment, and eight did not respond.
