Queen of the South have apologised to fans after former MP George Galloway was allowed to attend their match against Dundee on Saturday.
The political activist has recently moved to Dumfries and Galloway and took in the 3-1 win at Palmerston.
Galloway posted about the match on his Twitter account, praising Charlie Adam 's performance in the Championship clash.
That led to some complaints from fans, with the former Glasgow Kelvin MP allowed to attend despite supporters being barred from grounds up and down the country.
Club directors are allowed to attend but are not allowed to bring guests.
Queen of the South said in a statement: "We can confirm that George Galloway did attend our game against Dundee at Palmerston yesterday.
"He was socially distant within an area of the ground where he formed a bubble with his family. All Covid protocols were followed at all times.
"We would like to apologise to our supporters who have been upset by his attendance at the match."
The former Labour and RESPECT MP explained that he had been there to discuss a sponsorship opportunity.
He wrote on Twitter: "My family have FIVE season tickets. I’m about to be a sponsor.
"I’m spreading the word about the club to millions of people."
