Steven Naismith condemned the crowd trouble which marred Rangers' Champions League game against Unirea Urziceni.

And the young forward claimed the actions of a minority of supporters detracted from the performance of the team as they earned a 1-1 draw against the Romanian champions on Wednesday night.

"It was disappointing to see what went on the other night and everybody at the club definitely does not condone it."

The club were charged with the improper conduct of their supporters following the disturbances in Bucharest and the matter will be dealt with by UEFA's control and disciplinary body on Thursday.

Rangers chief executive Martin Bain claims the trouble was triggered by poor organisation at the Steaua Stadium and over-zealous policing and has vowed to argue a strong case.

Bains' explanation for the crowd trouble was also backed by Superintendent Mike Dean of Strathclyde Police, who was helping to co-ordinate security at the ground.

However, if UEFA do decide to impose sanctions, the Scottish champions could face a fine or even be forced to play behind closed doors - a scenario Naismith would be completely unfamiliar with.

Naismith added: "I've never played in a game in a big stadium behind closed doors in such a big competition. I wouldn't know what it's like to be honest.

"It's not nice to see and I think everybody associated with the club is disappointed with what went on. It maybe took a wee bit away from the performance."
