Celtic and Rangers labelled 'European minnows' but Champions League return 'unfairly prejudiced'

Celtic and Rangers never had a chance of competing in the Champions League this season according to Simon Jordan.

The talkSPORT radio host and former Crystal Palace owner has reacted to a tough night for Ange Postecoglou's side at Celtic Park, where they watched their last 16 qualification hopes from Group F collapse in a 2-0 loss against RB Leipzig. Rangers meanwhile face Liverpool tonight at Ibrox and go into their fourth Group A clash having lost all three games against the Reds, Ajax and Napoli without scoring a goal and conceding nine.

It's the first time both of the Glasgow clubs have been at this stage together since 2007 and Jordan reckons years away from this stage has come into effect in harsh fashion this time around. He believes they are small clubs when compared to the strength of their opponents but this stint will do them well long-term.
