A Celtic fan who subjected a police officer to sectarian abuse has been given a community payback order and told to carry out 80 hours unpaid work.

Paul Hamill was stopped from entering Celtic's Champions League home game against Spartak Moscow on 5 December as he was "severely intoxicated".

After being arrested he later swore and made sectarian remarks to an officer.

At Glasgow Sheriff Court, the 21-year-old, from East Kilbride, admitted abusive and threatening behaviour.
