The community safety minister's comments come ahead of the Scottish Cup final match between Celtic and Rangers at Hampden Park in the city on Saturday.
The Scottish government has condemned the 'violence, vandalism, and antisocial behaviour' that took place in Glasgow as football fans gathered to celebrate Celtic's title win. Around 25,000 people flocked to the city centre on Saturday to mark the Hoops lifting the Scottish Premiership trophy - for the third successive season. Across the day, Police Scotland made 19 arrests for various offences and enquiries remain ongoing into a number of incidents.
He also stated a major road junction was 'completely blocked' to traffic, the Tron Theatre had to 'cancel' a performance that evening, and the A&E at Glasgow Royal Infirmary was 'completely swamped'. Ms Brown said the behaviour was 'absolutely unacceptable', adding there is 'no reason' why a celebration should degenerate into disorder.
