The Ibrox side's coaching staff were embroiled in separate flashpoints at Easter Road on December 20 and again at Celtic Park nine days later.

Members of the Light Blues coaching staff breached Disciplinary Rule 204, which concerns team staff, players and club employees failing to conduct themselves in an orderly manner.

At the match against Hibs, which the Gers won 3-0, technical coach Tom Culshaw clashed with Hibs No.2 John Potter on the touchline following a challenge on Borna Barisic by Easter Road defender Ryan Porteous, who was sent off in the aftermath of the incident.
