Some boy was killed after he was bottled in the streets around Ibrox just after Rangers won 3 - 2 at Ibrox this year.
And here's a report from the 3 - 3 game
CELTIC 3 - 3 RANGERS 8/10/2002
violence exploded last night in the wake of sunday's old firm match. police and ambulance services reported dozens of knife attacks and beatings as celtic and rangers fans clashed in booze-fuelled battles. strathclyde police arrested 32 people, 17 of them inside the stadium, after trouble flared at the end of the match, which ended 3-3. ambulance services and hospitals were working flat out throughout the night to cope with the injured fans.
worst hit were housing schemes and areas around pubs in glasgow, lanarkshire and paisley. one ambulance worker said: "these hooligans were just knocking lumps out of each other. it has been a very crazy night. it has been non-stop and the workers who finished their shift at 11pm were glad to get away. It has been hectic." fighting broke out almost as soon as the final whistle was blown and continued well into the early hours.
paramedics struggled to cope with the sheer number of casualties they were faced with. many of the victims were knifed or battered during fights between rival gangs of thugs outside busy pubs. an ambulance service spokeswoman said: "this has been our busiest night of the year so far. "all our crews were out answering calls and taking injured fans to hospital. we have been rushed off our feet. we expected a bit of trouble but this was way off the scale. it was just one call after another all night. fights have been breaking out all over the place and people have been getting slashed and beaten up in punch ups in the street or in pubs.
police said they had made 32 arrests by 10pm but were expecting to make more as the night wore on. one police officer said: "it was pandemonium out there. there were battles breaking out left, right and centre. we were going like a fair the whole night and we were expecting it to go on into the early hours of the morning. god knows what it would have been like if it hadn't been a draw."
shortly before the incident, a large firework was thrown on to the pitch. the device, which contained a series of smaller firecrackers, was reported to have been thrown from among the crowd of rangers supporters. violence also erupted close to belfast city centre yesterday shortly after the end of the nail-biting match. rival gangs clashed in the cromac street area soon after what was the most dramatic glasgow derby in many years. riot police moved in to separate the crowds, most of whom were wearing the colours of the scottish rivals. later, police came under fire in the westland road area of north belfast when gunmen shot at two security forces land rovers that were on patrol. no injuries were reported but a huge force of reinforcements swiftly moved in as crowds gathered and rioting began.

The Man U V Liverpool game is bigger than the Liverpool v Everton game. The crowd was so quite at the Everton v Liverpool game at the weekend you'd never get that at the Old Firm game.
