"They need to see some guidelines put down in writing so that they know exactly what's happening if they step out of line," said the manager.

"This club has been fined heavily for their conduct on the park and that has to change," said Jefferies, who plans to meet managing director Campbell Ogilvie on Monday to discuss the problem. "The fines will only go up and up.

"I've ended up being without Michael Stewart a couple of times for stupid things.

"If it's not going your way and you're angry, you've just got to bite your tongue.
"Retaliation gets you in trouble. That's something that we need to address."
