Celtic fined by UEFA for anti-monarchy banners after British Queen's death

Celtic have been fined over "provocative" anti-monarchy banners displayed by their fans at a Champions League match last month less than a week after the Queen's death.

One banner spotted among the Hoops' section of the ground in their match against Ukrainian side Shakhtar Donetsk in Poland on 14 September stated '**** the crown'.

Another read 'Sorry For Your Loss Michael Fagan,' a reference to a man who broke into the Queen's bedroom in 1982.

The Scottish champions have been fined €15,000 euros by UEFA's control, ethics and disciplinary body over what was described as "a message not fit for a sporting event (ie a provocative banner)".

Celtic were also fined €4,250 euros for the lighting of fireworks at a home Champions League match against Real Madrid on 6 September.
