Kilmarnock dispute Covid breach punishment
Rangers manager Steven Gerrard (right) speaks to Kilmarnock's Stuart Findlay at the end of the Scottish Premiership match at Rugby Park
ALEX DYER expressed his bewilderment over the Scottish Professional Football League’s (SPFL) decision to punish Kilmarnock for Covid-19 breaches.
The Ayrshire club admitted breaching regulations and were punished with an automatic 3-0 defeat against Motherwell and a £40,000 fine, which was suspended until June 30 following an SPFL tribunal.
Kilmarnock expressed their anger with the punishment in an official club statement on Thursday and Dyer echoed that following Saturday’s 1-0 defeat at Hamilton.
