A Hibernian fan who confronted Rangers captain James Tavernier at the side of the pitch during a game has been jailed for 100 days.
Cameron Mack from Port Seton, East Lothian was also banned from attending Scottish football matches for 10 years.
He pled guilty to breach of the peace after the incident at Hibs' Easter Road stadium last month.
Edinburgh Sheriff Court heard the 22-year-old has apologised to the player and both clubs.
His lawyer told the court he has since received death threats because of his actions.
Mack kicked the ball away before the confrontation with the Rangers defender.
His actions were condemned by Hibernian chief executive Leeann Dempster.
