ELGIN City have been fined £25,000 by the Scottish Football League for selling 1,100 too many tickets for the game with Rangers.
The SFL board met on Tuesday evening to review the circumstances which led to the game being postponed on health and safety grounds.
They have ruled that Elgin City breached Rule 98.4 and Rule 44.5 of the organisation’s Constitution and Rules.
The Club have been ordered to pay a fine of £25,000 to The Scottish Football League, £5,000 of which will be donated to a charity chosen by Rangers F.C.
"Elgin City F.C. have also been ordered to pay compensation to Rangers F.C. of an amount no less than the actual costs incurred by that club in the preparation and planning of this match, these expenses to be satisfactorily vouched to the Board of the SFL," added a statement from the SFL.
"The Scottish Football League would like to stress in the strongest terms that safety of fans is our number one priority, and that all clubs must adhere to the officially sanctioned ground capacity as agreed with the Authorities."
The date of the rearranged match will be announced later this week.
