Rotten Rangers give Celtic Champions League solace as Parkhead punters accused of celebrating failure – Hotline

Old Firm fans are used to fighting over who is the better team. Now they are arguing over who is worse. Rangers picked up the embarrassing record as the poorest performing side in Champions League history but it was hardly a breeze for Celtic as they ended a winless campaign with a 5-1 thumping against Real Madrid. Rangers fans accept they were guff – and they urged Hoops supporters to do the same.

Gordon Ferguson, Kilwinning, said: “ Celtic scored two goals and won two points more than Rangers. It’s hardly a gulf. Is it just possible the two clubs have ultimately been rank rotten?”

Gary Stevenson, Newtonhill, said: “You have to laugh at the Celtic players congratulating each other after only losing 5-1 to a Real Madrid side who played with the handbrake on. Celtic have invented a new trophy, the Chances Created Cup! Celtic are every bit as bad as the rest of the Scottish clubs in Europe this year.”
