I am sorry but when that Spud came on the pitch & swung at Fat Frank Lampard & missed by the way, think the repercussions for Chelsea/Spurs were harsher, English clubs are a much easier target I'm afraid. £25k is a joke, Celtic got of lightly no doubt.

Different case - that was a deliberately aimed punch, with the intent to hit Lampard, in this case the Celtic fan patted Dida on the cheek without any real malice.

Dida did the Celts a favour as the attention was switched to his acting and not the pitch invasion and the fact that the guy wasn't even caught.
At least it puts to bed the myth of "if it was a British club (don't go there Gump) they'd throw the book at them".
if it was a premiership club... the book and half the library would have gone their way.

I think UEFA have got this one right.
