The striker later released a statement on social media: “One mindless idiot ruined what was an unbelievable night of football. Congratulations to Nottingham Forest on their victory and good luck in the final.
“As an ex-Forest player, I will not let one scumbag ruin my respect for the Forest fans. Incredibly proud to be captain of this group of Sheffield United players, they gave their all and can hold their heads up high. We will be back and go again. Thanks for all your messages and support after the incident. Billy.”
McCoist, speaking to Gabby Agbonlahor and Laura Woods, added: “When I was fortunate enough to score against Celtic for example, the first thing I wanted to do was get back to my own fans and celebrate with the Rangers fans, because Celtic fans don’t want to see you celebrate and I get that.
“Just go and enjoy the occasion with your own fans and celebrate, that’s what you should do. Never mind there’s no place for it, that is a jailable offence.”
