Celtic fined by UEFA over anti-monarchy banners
The club have been handed a find of around £13,000 for banners displayed at their away match against Shakhtar Donetsk
Celtic have been fined over "provocative" anti-monarchy banners displayed by their fans at a Champions League match last month less than a week after the Queen's death.
One banner spotted among the Hoops' section of the ground in their match against Ukrainian side Shakhtar Donetsk in Poland on September 14 stated 'F*** the crown'.
Another read 'Sorry For Your Loss Michael Fagan,' a reference to a man who broke into the Queen's bedroom in 1982.
The Scottish champions have been fined 15,000 euros (just over £13,000) by UEFA's control, ethics and disciplinary body over what was described as "a message not fit for a sporting event (ie a provocative banner)".
Celtic were also fined 4,250 euros (£3,733) for the lighting of fireworks at a home Champions League match against Real Madrid on September 6.
Rangers have been fined £12,284 for “improper conduct of the team” against Napoli after receiving six bookings, two of which led to the sending off of James Sands.
Hearts were fined £2,194 after fans threw objects onto the pitch during their away match against Riga in Latvia.
