Football ban's off for Elton
Sunday, June 12 2005 |
Scotland's biggest concert hall has lifted a ban on football shirts for Elton John's concert on June 12, 2005.
The SECC acted after Rangers and Celtic fans clashed at a Rod Stewart concert in May 2005.
But they relented after Elton fan Jackie Stevenson-Lawrence complained. Jackie wears a specially- created Watford shirt to all of Elton's gigs.
Jackie's husband Graham said: "I think a bit of common sense has to come into the equation."
But venue chiefs warned the ban on footie tops will still apply when Rod returns to the SECC on July 5, 2005.
