Steven Gerrard: Rangers manager accepts one-match touchline ban, Celtic captain Scott Brown also charged by Scottish FA, Ryan Kent’s two-match ban upheld
Steven Gerrard has accepted a one-match touchline ban for his comments following Rangers defeat at Celtic.Gerrard has been accused of misconduct for comments believed to be made to referee Bobby Madden following the match.3

Steven Gerrard has until Friday to respond

Celtic captain Scott Brown has also been charged for not acting in the best interests of association football.Brown – who raised his arms in triumph in the direction of the Rangers fans immediately after the 2-1 victory – has been accused of breaching a rule which states players, coaches and officials should “act in the best interests of association football”.Rule 77 also references “improper” behaviour and using “threatening, abusive, indecent or insulting words or behaviour” and carries a minimum two-match suspension for players.Celtic later declared in a brief statement that they would “defend these charges vigorously”.3

Scott Brown has also been charged by the Scottish FA

He was involved in a fracas with Alfredo Morelos, who subsequently was sent off for elbowing the Celtic man.The Celtic captain and both clubs have until Wednesday to respond to their charges with hearings pencilled in for May 2 for all four cases.Meanwhile Ryan Kent, who raised his hand at Brown later in the match had his two-match ban upheld by the Scottish Football Association. Following the final whistle, Andy Halliday confronted the Celtic captain after he celebrated in front of the Rangers fans. Halliday was also sent off.Both clubs have also received Scottish Football Association disciplinary charges relating to the confrontation immediately after the game.

Another shambolic decision from the SFA.. can someone tell me what Scott Brown actually did. Its beyond belief.— John Hartson (@JohnHartson10) April 4, 2019
