Stadium closures for Old Firm over fan disorder
The scenes after the Scottish Cup tie between the sides last season
Celtic and Rangers have both been ordered to play their next home Scottish Cup matches behind closed doors after last season's quarter-final was marred by fan disorder.
Both clubs will also have to pay £100,000 to the team they are drawn against in that fixture.
The two clubs could also face a second home match without fans if there is a further incident of either side's supporters engaging in "unacceptable conduct" in a Scottish Cup fixture.
Celtic progressed to last season's semi-finals by beating Rangers on penalties at Ibrox, after which fans of both teams spilled on to the pitch.
The sanctions are likely to come into force when both sides enter this season's Scottish Cup in January.
Celtic said: "We are shocked by this disproportionate punishment for a relatively small incursion by Celtic supporters at a moment of emotion and celebration.
"Our club has never defended supporters entering the field of play and we have repeatedly taken action when it occurs.
"However, we understand the part emotion plays in football and would have expected the context and distinction in behaviours to have been taken into account by the panel.
"Another important distinction is that, on this occasion, Celtic were not the home club, responsible for stadium safety arrangements.
