Rangers fans were delighted with their team’s display against West Ham but also lined up to have a pop at Hotline regular Gordon Ashley’s praise for Celtic in their 2-2 draw with Blackburn at the weekend.
John Wilson emailed: “Gordon Ashley needs a lie down in this heat - he gushes Saturday’s game against Blackburn was one centre half away from some team. I take it he missed Siegrist’s saves and Celtic could not manage a win. Rangers beat a nearly full strength West Ham, who had been undefeated in 10 games, but somehow Gordon will make this out to be pre-season rubbish no doubt.
“He’d better hope Maeda’s in defence, because CCV will need to rugby tackle Matondo, who will rip that static defence to shreds.” Gary Stevenson, Newtonhill , emailed: “So Ashley’s Best Ever Celtic side manage a 2-2 draw with struggling English Championship side Blackburn Rovers while Rangers beat high flying English Premiership West Ham 3-1. I know, it’s only friendlies and don’t worry, Blackburn will get better.”
