Two banners from Celtic fans in the Champions League match away to Shakhtar Dontsk resulted in a fine of £13,500 from UEFA.
The ‘anti-monarchy’ banners got plenty of media attention with Simon Jordan, Graeme Souness and Ally McCoist left emotionally traumatised by th sight of th banners.
Today UEFA handed out a fine of £8,754 to th Ibrox Tribute Act over what has been described as a ‘provocative message of an offensive nature’ during their 2-0 defeat at Anfield on October 4.
A google search doesn’t shed any light on the banner, it certainly wasn’t discussed by the TalkSPORT snowflakes.
Rangers fined £35,234 for a number of offences at their #UCL clash with Liverpool at Anfield on October 4. A £14,444 for pyro, two separate fines of £8,754 for a “provocative message of an offensive nature” & violation UEFA’s face masks rule. And £3,283 for objects thrown by fans
