Rangers coaches Michael Beale and Tom Culshaw have been handed touchline bans but a disciplinary case against the club has been adjourned until a later date.
Rangers were due to learn their fate over two charges of failing to ensure players and staff conduct themselves in an orderly fashion, one relating to gestures made by Alfredo Morelos and Ryan Kent at Celtic Park, and the other for a touchline confrontation at Easter Road. But the case will be decided later.
Steven Gerrard will be missing members of his backroom staff in the dugout in coming games though after Beale and Culshaw were suspended.
Technical coach Culshaw has been handed an immediate one-match touchline ban for his part in the Easter Road incident, plus a suspended one-game ban which will expire at the end of the season. Hibs assistant manager John Potter, who was also charged with misconduct, was censured.
Members of the Rangers bench had reacted angrily to a red-card challenge from Ryan Porteous on Borna Barisic.
First-team coach Beale has received an immediate three-game ban with another two matches suspended. He was shown a red card at Celtic Park after disputing a late red card for Morelos after the striker received a second yellow card for a dive in the penalty area.
Hibs have also been censured and given a suspended £1500 fine for the touchline incident after being handed the same charge as Rangers.
No new hearing date has been set to decide the charges against Rangers.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
