QUOTE OF THE DAY

-

‘For Celtic to lose Gordon was a mistake. Their arrogance over his deal must’ve embarrasse­d the guy. It left him no choice but to leave’

constantly slating Celtic. Can they not get it through their heads we didn’t end the league early. The skint teams in SPFL did. And we will win 10 in a row.”

said: “Why do we keep getting told by Celtic supporters Rangers have only won 53 titles plus one shared title as if it were comparable to their situation?

“Rangers have won 54 league titles including one shared. Celtic have won 50 titles including eight in a row plus were awarded one league title in a Zoom conference by virtue of leading the league table when the season was ended with only 75 per cent of fixtures played. They are two completely different things.”

John Robertson’s call yesterday saying Celtic were average went down like a lead balloon with Hoops supporters.

said: “If he thinks Celtic are average, what does that make Rangers?

“When Celtic do 10 in a row, there is one thing for sure. Celtic will make history and Steven Gerrard will be sacked. He said he will stop 10 but he said that about nine and eight. He couldn’t stop a bus.”

said: “Doesn’t he realise what he is actually saying? If Celtic, who are by far the best team in Scotland, are average, where does that leave Rangers? Rank rotten. That’s where.”

The next stage of Scottish football’s pantomime will be played out at the courts tomorrow with Hearts and Partick Thistle fighting their relegation­s.

said: “I’m not a fan of football going into the law side but you can’t argue with the clubs. They have a right to try to fight for what they think it is the right thing for them.

“After all, self-interest is what drives our game and all of the previous decisions. What is so different about this scenario?”
