The pair were charged with “excessive misconduct” by the Scottish Football Association after a close confrontation following Saints’ 4-0 win at Dens Park on March 10, and an independent panel issued the punishments after a Hampden hearing.

McCann will have to sit in the stands in games against Hearts and Celtic while Clark will miss matches against Aberdeen and Motherwell.
