Celtic hero Chris Sutton blasts Rangers skipper James Tavernier over fan apology and comments

Chris Sutton has blasted James Tavernier over his apology to the Rangers fans after the hammering by Liverpool branding his words 'embarrassing' and 'scandalous'.

The Light Blues skipper was unable to face the media at full-time at Ibrox after the 7-1 thrashing after being requested to take part in a random drugs test in the wake of the result. Scott Arfield had fired the home side in front to send Ibrox wild but the joy was short-lived with the Reds upping the ante including a six minute hat-trick from sub Mo Salah.

However, the Rangers captain did share words via the club website as he apologised over the performance and result but insisted the players didn't throw in the towel in Govan. The result leaves Giovanni van Bronckhorst's men sitting rock bottom of the section with 0 points from four matches with a goals against total of 16.
