A 28-year old man's been fined £400 for disturbances at an Irish republican march in Glasgow.

Brian Burke pleaded guilty at Glasgow Sheriff Court to threatening behaviour aggravated by religious prejudice.

Scott Cowan, 47, will be sentenced next month after admitting to shouting sectarian remarks and behaving in a threatening and abusive manner.

34-year old David Clark pled not guilty to forming part of a disorderly crowd, shouting, swearing and uttering sectarian remarks - he'll stand trial in December.

Lindsey Dalziel, 31, also denied acting in a threatening and abusive manner outside the Tollbooth bar.

She is charged with shouting, swearing, acting in an aggressive manner and uttering sectarian remarks while the parade was passing.

She will also face trial in December.
