QUOTE OF THE DAY

‘I’m a Celtic fan and I would’ve had Paul Gascoigne or Brian Laudrup in a minute. George Kelly is on the wind-up about Henrik Larsson’

a Gers fan for 36 years I have to say I would have loved Larsson to have played for us. He was a terrific player, a genius, and any Gers fans who says otherwise doesn’t know the game.”

The actions of a current Celtic striker haven’t gone down too well, with one caller unhappy with Moussa Dembele’s body language after he was taken off in the 1-1 draw away to Astana.

said: “Brendan Rodgers will have to have a word with Dembele. He sat on the bench after being subbed and when Leigh Griffiths scored the equaliser his face was tripping him. He has to learn it’s a team game and back the Bhoys no matter what.”

Celts boss Rodgers said it was an “outstanding result” in Kazakhstan which sets the Scottish champions up nicely for the return at Parkhead in their bid to join Europe’s elite in the group stages.

But said: “Celtic should be aware of Astana on a better surface. I know 1-1 was a good result but only the woodwork and goalkeeping saved them from disaster.”

Celtic’s Old Firm rivals continue to make progress in domestic competition and some of their new boys have made an early impression.

But said: “Rangers beat the mighty Stranraer and are playing class football against pub teams and suddenly they are going to win the league. They will do nothing but watch Celtic stroll to 10 in a row.”

said: “I’ve witnessed two bad tackles this week – the lunge on Niko Kranjcar from Stranraer’s Ryan Thomson and Scott Brown’s stamp against Astana.

“But the only pictures I’ve seen is of Joey Barton for a challenge that didn’t merit a mention on BT Sports. The witchhunt has begun already.” CALL THE HOTLINE TODAY FROM 11 TILL 12 NOON on: 0141 309 3306 or email us: hotline@dailyrecord.co.uk
