CELTIC, Rangers and Hearts have all been hammered with fines from Uefa in the wake of recent European matches.
The Hoops were fined £13,169 for the anti-monarchy banners their fans displayed at their away match against Shakhtar Donetsk last month, with Uefa deeming the message “not fit for a sports event”.
Uefa’s control, ethics and disciplinary body took action over what was described as “a message not fit for a sporting event (ie a provocative banner)”.
One simply read: “f*** the crown” while the other read: “Sorry for your loss Michael Fagan.”
The second was a swipe referring to Fagan, who broke into Buckingham Palace twice in 1982.
The fans were spotted on TV as the BT cameras focused in on the travelling Hoops support.
Celtic were also fined £3,731 for pyro in the stands in their opener against Real Madrid.
Meanwhile, Rangers have been fined £12,284 for “improper conduct of the team” against Napoli on Sep 14.
The Gers received six bookings during the match, including two which saw James Sands sent off.
The Ibrox club flouted Uefa’s rules by singing God Save The King prior to that match but the governing body said no action would be taken for that incident.
