McInnes Ban Expanded; Hearts Context Included

Derek McInnes, Rangers’ manager, was sanctioned for describing a controversial Celtic penalty as “disgusting,” with reports varying the punishment from a four-match touchline ban to a three-match ban with a suspended term as Rangers appeal the decision. The cases spotlight the broader debate in Scottish football over how managers’ post-match comments regarding refereeing are regulated and whether the penalties fit the remarks, with Rangers insisting the sanction is excessive and should be overturned.
