A Rangers fan who lashed out at police during the club's city centre title party has been ordered to undertake unpaid work.
Bryan Morrison, 35, repeatedly punched and kicked officers' shields in Queen Street on May 15, 2021.
The offshore worker, of the city's Knightswood, also tried to grab the shields and gestured aggressively.
Thousands of jubilant Gers fans gathered in George Square earlier that day to celebrate the club's Scottish Premiership win.
Glasgow Sheriff Court heard Morrison remained in the square at 10.55pm as an "escalating situation" took place.
Prosecutor Mark Allan stated that Morrison returned to the public order officer cordon three times in eight minutes.
Mr Allan added: "He repeatedly punched and kicked the shields and at another point attempted to seize hold of the shields and thereafter thwart the efforts of the officers."
The hearing was told that the crowd was eventually dispersed and CCTV was later used to trace Morrison.
Officers initially attended at his home but he was not available due to his line of work.
He later handed himself in.
Morrison - who has previous convictions - pleaded guilty to behaving in a threatening or abusive manner.
Marisa Borland, defending, told the court: "He provided his details to police at the time - that's how intoxicated he was.
"He gave his details to police and then he went home.”
Sheriff Joan Kerr ordered Morrison to undertake 225 hours of unpaid work.
