Sports event consultant Mark Blackbourne will lead the Scottish FA's investigation into the disorder that followed the Scottish Cup quarter-final between Rangers and Celtic in March.
Ugly scenes ensued after Celtic's victory on penalties, with spectators entering the pitch. The match had finished 0-0 after extra time.
It was the second successive meeting of the sides at Ibrox in all competitions, but there were more visiting supporters at the cup game than the league encounter seven days earlier.
Approaching 2,500 Celtic fans attended the 2-2 Scottish Premiership draw on 1 March, but under Scottish Cup rules Celtic received an allocation nearing 7,500 – a full stand – for the quarter-final.

As of 30 March, 13 arrests related to the cup game had been made.
Celtic and Rangers are scheduled to meet once more this season, in the Premiership at Celtic Park on 10 May.
The review has commenced following a meeting of Blackbourne, both clubs, Police Scotland and the SFA.
The SFA describes Blackbourne as "a vastly experienced sports event consultant who continues to lead on match operations at major club and international competitions under Uefa and Fifa jurisdiction".
They added: "The review will seek to establish the facts surrounding what happened during the day of the match, both within Ibrox Stadium and the surrounding area, including examining events and decisions made in advance of, during and following the match, with a view to identifying lessons learnt and making recommendations to avoid a repeat of similar scenes at other fixtures with a similar risk profile."
