Police line the pitch at full-time after a fan invasion Finally, I would like to thank the Cabinet Secretary for Justice, Michael Matheson, for taking time to address our members in light of the events at the end of the cup final.The Scottish FA has an excellent working relationship with the government and we will continue our collective efforts to implement robust procedures to ensure no repeat of the unacceptable conduct at what should have been the showpiece occasion of the Scottish season.Following the meeting, Matheson said the Scottish Government will get tough if the SFA is unable to deal with the issues. Hibernian head coach Alan Stubbs described the scenes of the pitch invasion at Hampden Park as regrettable Matheson said: The scenes we saw at Hampden last week were appalling and the Scottish Government condemns in the strongest possible terms the disorder and violence which scarred the end of the game.But from those dreadful scenes there is an opportunity to address some of the negative long-standing issues in the game and I want football to be proactive and seize that opportunity.I hope football can rise to this challenge and finally address this issue, and the Scottish Government is ready to work together constructively on this. I am encouraged by the initial response, but let me be absolutely clear: the Scottish Government is prepared to act if Scottish football isnt. On that basis we will explore alternative options if no solution can be delivered by football. However, I genuinely hope that this is not needed and Scottish football takes control of its own destiny.
