A Remembrance Sunday minute’s silence was abandoned after just nine seconds when Celtic fans booed and sang pro-IRA songs ahead of their game at Kilmarnock.

The game at Rugby Park saw suspected Green Brigade members wave Irish and Palestinian flags, and let off fireworks.

Celtic fans held a banner which said: “From Balfour to Starmer. The crimes of the empire live on. Britain is committing genocide in Gaza.”

Referee Nick Walsh called time on the minute’s silence after just nine seconds when the boos and pro-IRA chants rang out.

The game was being televised on Sky Sports and commentator Ian Crocker said: “Sorry if you were offended with the disturbance to the silence.”

The Scottish champions went on to beat Killie 2-1 in their Scottish Premiership tie on Sunday with goals from Callum McGregor and Nicolas-Gerrit Kuhn.

The result sees Brendan Rodgers’ side go top of the table above Aberdeen.

Meanwhile, Derry City fans unfurled a sign that said ‘Free Palestine’ during their FAI Cup final against Drogheda United at Dublin’s Aviva Stadium.

Fans lit a number of flares and waved Palestine flags during the display on Sunday.

Derry City lost 2-0 to underdogs Drogheda in the final.
