Pundit Mark Wilson admits he felt sorry for Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou and Rangers counterpart Michael Beale as they sat for a rare snap together
The two managers were pictured together in front of the media ahead of their press conferences for Sunday's Viaplay Cup Final. As the assembled press were told the rundown of the day's events, the two managers were asked to side beside one another before heading out for a photocall and that led to an awkward pic which has gone viral on social media of the two sitting at a table.
Former Celtic defender Wilson found the photo funny as did much of the Scottish football cast on social media, but told Superscoreboard that he couldn't help but feel some sympathy for Beale and Postecoglou as they were made to sit tight together for the cameras. He said: "I felt sorry for the pair of them! They're professional guys and they would probably chat away.
"However in the public eye, their own set of supporters don't want to see any real friendship in the week leading up to the big game. The two of them played that part very well, it looked so awkward."
