Jeff Stelling takes Rangers parting shot as emotional Sky Sports sign off includes Celtic trophy taunt

It was a day of celebrations and thank you messages - but Rangers were served one final jibe by Jeff Stelling as he stepped away from Sky Sports.

The sports broadcast has been at the TV giants since 1992 and is synonymous with their Soccer Saturday show, and he got a standing ovation on Sunday afternoon as he hosted his final show. It ends a run of almost 30 years as the flagship goals programme's anchor and it came on the day Fran Alonso's Celtic Women's side triumphed over Rangers Women's side in the Scottish Cup final.

But as the game started to edge towards a green and white victory in the 2-0 victory - goals scored by Natasha Flint and Claire O'Riordan - Stelling took a subtle dig at Rangers by pointing to Ange Postecoglou's team winning the Scottish Premiership. Celtic captain Callum McGregor lifted the trophy on Saturday after beating Aberdeen 5-0 at Parkhead.
