Yesterday, the club laid the blame for last Friday night’s crowd disorder at Fir Park firmly at the door of the Green Brigade section of their support by effectively banning their collective presence at Parkhead.

The club have issued suspensions from home and away games, subject to further inquiries, to 128 people identified as being allegedly involved in the setting off and throwing of flares and smoke bombs before and during the Premiership game at Motherwell, as well as the significant vandalism of seats in the South Stand at Fir Park.
