Todd Cantwell wasn’t in the mood to share at Hampden. But the Rangers ace hopes it will be cups and not drinking bottles that his side are hogging next year.
The new Ibrox playmaker found himself at the centre of a social media storm following last month’s Scottish Cup semi-final when a clip of him refusing to allow bemused Celtic ace Reo Hatate a swig from his side’s water bottles went viral. Record Sport columnist Chris Sutton was among those quick to troll the former Norwich star after the bizarre watergate row but Cantwell reckons he was only treating his Hoops opponent the way he’d expect to be dealt with by the Celtic squad.
That incident wasn’t his only run in with the Parkhead players at Hampden, with the 25-year-old also involved in a full and frank exchange of views with Hoops skipper Callum McGregor at the final whistle. Cantwell knows there’s not much point in him mouthing off now after three straight defeats to their bitter rivals.
