Old Firm duo hit by bans

Rangers striker Kyle Lafferty has been hit with a two-match ban for feigning injury while Celtic's Glenn Loovens has been banned for one match. Lafferty, who later apologised for his behaviour, had already been fined by Rangers.

Celtic defender Glenn Loovens was banned for one match for his challenge on Maurice Edu during the May 9 Old Firm derby.

Loovens appeared to rake his studs down the leg of Rangers midfielder Edu.

Loovens' Celtic team-mate Scott McDonald was found to have no case to answer for his tackle on Lee Wilkie during the May 12 victory over Dundee United.
