Happy New Year best wishes and festive glad tidings were in short supply as Old Firm squabbling and the usual Hotline spats were aired. As 2023 gets underway there was no shortage of callers having a gripe.
Gerrard Kelly emailed: "Michael Beale said Brazilians don't argue about ticket allocation, does he forget he is in Scotland? That's another comment which is a bit like Pedro Caixinha and his 'dogs barking but the caravans not moving' remark, which made no sense. Malik Tillman was also quoted as saying Rangers are the best team in the league yet they are nine points behind with a goal difference is way beyond help.
"Just because they have won four games they believe they are now world beaters again but don't make me laugh. Yes, I admit the league isn't done, but don't bump your gums after four games." Stephen Ferguson, Glasgow, emailed: "Hotline caller Bud Hay says Rangers have won four games in-a -row but they haven't beaten anyone yet, I would remind him that these are the same teams that his club is beating and are proclaiming themselves as some sort of superteam."
