Chris Sutton ‘loves’ Andy Halliday, Celtic Twitter explodes

Andy Halliday had earlier claimed that Rangers could have caught up with Celtic last season and Chris Sutton’s reacted in true Chris Sutton fashion.

One would think that having dropped just 10 points over the first 30 games of the league season, it is pretty safe to say that the same club would not let go of a 13 point lead over the last 8 games. Especially when the chasing team was dropping points left, right and center since their return from the winter break.

At the end of the day, anything is possible. All of us could be living in an alien simulation and all of this could be just our imagination. But that is not a realistic way of thinking. Neither was Rangers somehow catching up with Celtic if the season had been played.

Yet that seems to be the tale that most Rangers fans seem to be telling the world from the moment the season was suspended due to the global pandemic. And some of the Rangers players have now joined the party as well, one of them being Andy Halliday.

Of course, Chris Sutton is a man who had to respond to these comments. And the Celtic favourite did so in his own unique fashion, putting down the former Rangers star in the process:

As expected, Celtic fans were going to have fun too at the expense of the departing Rangers man:

Halliday had spent five seasons at Ibrox but the club decided to let his contract run out, with him making just 12 appearances last season.

The Hoops fans will always remember him for that time he was subbed off in the first half at Parkhead with Rangers trailing 2-0. Halliday went on to lose his temper on the bench as a result. And Celtic fans wasted no time in singing his name from the stands.
