Ally McCoist in razor sharp Rangers response over wretched record as he holds hands up and says 'I'm a hypocrite'

Ally McCoist turned the tables on talkSPORT sparring partner Alan Brazil after being teased about the prospect of Rangers becoming the worst ever team in Champions League group stage history by the Celtic-daft breakfast show presenter.

A 1-0 defeat to Ajax in their final Group A fixture at Ibrox next week would see Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s men finish with six defeats out of six and a goal difference of minus 19 - equalling the unwanted record set by Dinamo Zagreb a decade ago.

Although they could be spared this season by Viktoria Plzen who face Barcelona in their final game and the Czech side have a goal difference of -17 - so there is plenty at stake for Gers ahead of their meeting with the Dutch giants. However, despite a wretched campaign and the prospect of that ‘worst ever’ tag, Rangers could actually still finish third and drop into the Europa League. That would require the Light Blues to better their 4-0 defeat to Ajax in Amsterdam on matchday one and is extremely unlikely.
