Edinburgh sides in trouble over derby drama

Edinburgh sides Hearts and Hibernian face a stiff financial penalty after both clubs were charged after a mass confrontation during last week’s derby. The Scottish capital duo have each been issued with notices of complaints from the Scottish Football Association following two second-half flash-points at Tynecastle in their goalless draw. The clubs have been charged with breaching rule 204, which carries a maximum fine of £10,000 (Dh48,000) in cases where “three or more players and/ or members of team staff from one team are involved in a confrontation with opposing players and/or members of team staff of the opposing team during and/or directly after a match”.
