But Rangers say they may take similar action to their bitter rivals after accusing Celtic supporters of vandalising the Broomloan Stand as their side won 2-1 last month.
It is understood the Ibrox outfit claim a section of seating was damaged but Celtic insist they have yet to see any proof their fans stepped out of line.
In a statement given to Press Association Sport, the Parkhead side - who banked around £375,000 from their fans for tickets to the recent game at Ibrox - said: "As far as we are concerned the matter regarding payment for the significant damage caused to Celtic Park has been resolved.

"Responsibility for that cost will have to be accepted."
