 chiefs said the game was not in danger, as long as the violence did not escalate.

But SFA Security chief Willie McDougall has been in touch with the British Consul consul, title of the two chief magistrates of ancient Rome. The institution is supposed to have arisen with the expulsion of the kings, traditionally in 510 B.C., and it was well established by the early 4th cent. B.C.  in Riga, about the match on September 2.

Spokesman Andy Mitchell Andy Mitchell may refer to:

 said: "The information from the consul is that there is no obvious threat to the Scotland supporters.

"But we are seeking more information and will continue to monitor the situation."

The Travel Club newsletter will keep the 1000 or so fans expected to travel up to date with the situation.

Mr Mitchell added: "There is no suggestion that the game will have to be moved or that fans would be advised not to travel."
