Chris Sutton sends the Celtic fans a message after what Barry Ferguson said about them

The post-match analysis and pundit reaction to Celtic’s win over Rangers continues today as Barry Ferguson offers his view on the game.

 

Already this week the Celtic fans have been reading about how Ally McCoist was devastated at the result and how Graeme Souness’ bizarre view of just how big the gap is between Celtic and Rangers.

Overall, the Rangers-leaning pundits are understandably gutted this week and next to offer his opinion on the Celtic defeat is former Ibrox midfielder, Barry Ferguson.

 

Celtic fans ‘hurt’ Barry Ferguson

To be more precise, the result did hurt Ferguson but so did what the Celtic fans did to him whilst he was in the Parkhead director’s box during the 3-0 hammering.

 

Ferguson wrote in the Daily Record, “I’m not going to lie. This one hurts.

“Maybe it was because I was there to watch it with my own eyes, sitting in the directors’ box at Parkhead.

 

“Perhaps it was the joy on the faces of the Celtic fans when they were doing their wee huddle dance and laughing in my face when their team was 3-0 up.

 

“It was interesting, let’s just leave it at that.”

Ferguson also went on to say that mainly the ‘hurt and disappointment’ was caused by his own team’s performance and that the Ibrox club did not ‘lose the proper way’ against Celtic but it is clear that what the fans did really annoyed him.

 

And it wasn’t lost on former Celtic hero, Chris Sutton.

Sutton ribs Ferguson for Celtic fan comments

If anyone knows what it’s like to take stick from the opposition fans, it’s Sutton. Even when he’s doing his punditry for Sky Sports the former Celtic striker still gets ribbed by Rangers fans to this day.

 

And in response to Ferguson’s column, Sutton took to social media to rib the former Rangers captain:

Celtic’s win over their Glasgow rivals puts them five points ahead of them at the top of the Scottish Premiership table.

 

But even more interestingly is that Rangers sit fourth, one point behind Dundee United, who they face in the first game back from the international break, but also four points behind high-flying Aberdeen.
