QUOTE OF THE DAY

‘What arrogance by Robertson and Rangers to think they can click their fingers and Celtic will come running. Stick your 800 tickets’ games. There has been debate about who was at fault but Celtic’s Covid red zones continued it by still refusing Rangers fans which is not in compliance with the rules. Why have Celtic not faced sanctions?”

Meanwhile, George Wilson, West Sussex, said: “The Hotline’s Rangers-obsessed expert Gordon Ashley has got his facts wrong again.

“He says Rangers have only won one trophy in 10 years. Coming up through the divisions they have in fact won four league titles and one Challenge Cup. Rangers winning the smaller trophies outside the top division had just as much value as Celtic romping the title by 20 or 30 points every year and winning cups when they had no opposition.”

Gary Stevenson, Newtonhill, said: “I wonder what the Lisbon Lions think about Celtic’s participation in the Europa Conference League? Teams are embarrassed to be in this competition.”

Looking ahead, David Bryce, Troon, said: “Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou appears to be quite ruthless and come the summer I am sure he will be telling Mikey Johnston, James Forrest, James McCarthy and Christopher Jullien to find new clubs.”

Finally, James McPake became the latest SPFL gaffer to get his jotters, with Mark McGhee coming in to replace him at Dundee.

Joe Graham, Garrowhill, said: “McPake was almost eight years with the club as player, academy coach, caretaker boss, and eventually taking over as manager. He got them promotion and into the quarter-finals of the Scottish Cup. What a way to treat a successful coach.”

Kevin Lord, Drylaw, said: “Why do the selfproclaimed ‘big clubs’ in Scotland continue filling the pockets of ‘loser’ managers on the gravy train that is the Scottish Premiership?”
