Chris Sutton wasn’t slow to react to Celtic’s 2-0 Scottish Cup win over Sevco at Hampden.
The scoreline barely reflected the gulf between the sides with only Willie Collum’s reluctance to red card Andy Halliday, Myles Beerman and James Tavernier keeping the scoreline respectable.
Callum McGregor and Scott Sinclair scored the goals that mattered as Brother Pedro’s claim that he had the best squad in Scotland was exposed and ridiculed.

After getting his starting XI badly wrong the fifth best coach in Qatar made two changes at half-time which made no difference whatsoever to the outcome of the match.
In the lead up to the match three clean sheets that had yielded seven points had been highlighted as some sort of Rodgers-like turnaround in form.
The basics of stringing passes together seemed beyond the best squad in Scotland for the first 45 minutes with Celtic coasting it with 75% possession.
