Interim Celtic boss Neil Lennon has backed Hearts chairwoman Ann Budge’s “big call” to close a section of Tynecastle after the disorder at last week’s Edinburgh derby.

Following a series of incidents during the 2-1 win for Hibernian, a 19-year-old has been charged in connection with a hate crime and a 38-year-old was arrested in connection with the use of racist language.

Another 19-year-old was also arrested over a flare being thrown and a 16-year-old was arrested in connection with a coin being thrown.
