Shocking News:£21m player who left Celtic in 2024 says he’d be open to joining Rangers
Celtic legend was still tuned into events between Rangers and Hibs.
The Sky Sports pundit was given a day off after Celts romped to an impressive 6-0 victory at St Johnstone on Saturday night. Former Hibees boss Jack Ross filled in in Sutton’s absence as he provided a perspective from the green side of Edinburgh during Sky’s coverage of the 12noon kick-off.
However, the ex-Hoops striker was still given a shoutout at half-time after flooding Kris Boyd’s phone with texts asking why Rangers weren’t a man down. The visitors were awarded a VAR penalty moments before half-time after John Souttar blocked a shot with his arm. But on-loan Swansea City frontman Mykola Kuharevich failed to cancel out Tom Lawrence’s opener as his poor effort was saved by Jack Butland.
While there can be no complaints over the spotkick, Sutton reckons Souttar was lucky to stay on the park – and he wasn’t shy in letting pal Boyd know all about it.
Boyd revealed: “Can I just clear something up? My big friends was on the texts saying, ‘Why has he not been sent off?’. He’s not been sent off because Jack Butland’s behind him and he would’ve saved it. So he wasn’t denied an obvious goalscoring opportunity. There you go, Mr. Sutton. Straight away he text me – ‘Why’s that not a red card?’. Straight away, honestly.”
Presenter Eilidh Barbour just shook her head as she laughed: “I can’t believe we’re talking about this when he’s not even here. They are arguing with each other and they aren’t even both here.”
