Chris Sutton has told Brendan Rodgers' Celtic detractors that their protests and sour grapes over the manner of his exit to Leicester City are 'unhelpful'.
And the Record Sport columnist also got into it with a fan who didn't appear interested in Champions League success under Rodgers. Sutton wasn't the most complimentary over the Irishman when he upped sticks for the Foxes in 2019 but he's been one of his defenders since returning to Celtic last week after the 50-year-old made his sensational return to Glasgow. He replaced Ange Postecoglou who had been pinched by Spurs after his Treble success.
After criticising them in his column, Sutton however aimed another pointed message at supporter group the Green Brigade who followed up the announcement of Rodgers' return with a revisiting of their banner from four years ago which read 'You traded immortality for mediocrity, never a Celt, always a fraud'. The former forward believes negativity on this scale is 'unhelpful' and that his old club needs everyone pulling in the same direction.
