Barry Ferguson offers Rangers penalty verdicts as he names the Celtic strength Michael Beale will take inspiration from

Barry Ferguson insists Connor Goldson did no wrong in his latest Rangers handball incident - as he compared the squad depth of his beloved club and Celtic.

The Hoops remain nine points clear at the top of the Premiership table after Glasgow's big two beat Kilmarnock and Dundee United respectively by 2-0 margins across Saturday and Sunday. Goldson's outstretched arm collided with the ball in last week's 2-2 draw with the Hoops at Ibrox and it sparked debate over whether or not a penalty should have been given against him.

So when the ball hit him at close range off the back of a United set-piece at Tannadice, any quelled penalty box chat immediately sparked up again. Speaking on Go Radio, former Rangers captain and Record Sport columnist Ferguson absolves him of any Tannadice wrongdoing, but that doesn't put him in the clear when it comes to the derby day incident.
