Rangers’ new manager Derek McInnes is reported to face a potential ban from the touchline during his opening domestic fixtures. The disciplinary action follows a charge connected to McInnes’s criticism of match officials. The reported sanction would apply in his first games as Rangers boss, limiting his involvement on the sidelines for those matches while the matter is handled through the appropriate disciplinary process.
The report indicates that the club’s appointment places McInnes in a situation where his stated role will be affected immediately at the start of the domestic schedule. While details of the charge and the specific match-by-match impact are described in terms of “opening domestic games,” the reporting is focused on the disciplinary action rather than any changes to Rangers’ squad or tactics.
No alternative outlet information is provided here beyond the same account, so the summary reflects the single published report: McInnes has been charged for remarks about officials and could receive a touchline restriction for early domestic matches.
