A KILLER stabbed his brother to death after they had been watching a Celtic versus Rangers match.
Mark Byrne attacked Paul Byrne at the 51-year-old's then family home in Sandyhills, Glasgow, in May 2022.
Paul, 47, never recovered having been knifed in the heart.
Window cleaner Byrne who had never been convicted of violent offences before - went on trial at the High Court in Glasgow accused of murder. An offer to plead guilty to the reduced charge of culpable homicide had been rejected.
Byrne told jurors he had been annoyed at Paul that day for shouting down the phone to their mother.
This led to him stabbing his sibling although he insisted it was "a blur"..
