During a Scottish Premiership match between Dundee United and Celtic, Celtic fans protested against high ticket prices (£42 for adults). The protest involved throwing tangerines onto the pitch, causing a delay in the game. A banner reading “Enjoy the fruits of our labour” was also displayed.
Celtic lodged an official complaint with the SPFL regarding the pricing. Dundee United attributed the high prices to increased policing and stewarding costs associated with a potentially championship-clinching game for Celtic. Commentary from Chris Sutton highlighted the frustration of the fans while expressing disapproval of the disruption to the game.
A second, shorter delay occurred in the second half when inflatable footballs were thrown onto the pitch.
The game continued after brief interruptions due to the fans' protests. The actions of the Celtic supporters reflected their strong dissatisfaction with the ticket pricing structure.
