Andy Walker demands Celtic respect from Michael Beale as Rangers boss fired pointed reminder after 'wee dig'

Concerned Andy Walker has urged Rangers boss Michael Beale to show respect for Celtic after he called the Scottish champions "the other team".

The Ibrox boss stopped short of name-checking Ange Postecoglou's side ahead of his first competitive game against Hibs, as Gio van Bronckhorst's successor will look to immediately cut the gap on Celtic to six points with the Hoops not returning to action until Saturday when they go up against Aberdeen. When quizzed about overtaking the the league leaders this term, Beale stated that they could only succeed if "the other team" started dropping points.

After blanking their city rivals, former Parkhead star Walker reckons there should be a level of respect between both bosses and dressing rooms in Glasgow. Speaking on The Go Radio Football Show, he pointed to the relationship of Postecoglou and former boss Van Bronckhorst following his arrival at Rangers as an example of how the sides should conduct themselves.
