Chris Sutton handed out the Derek Johnstone treatment on BT Sport tonight by describing his fellow pundit as an Ibrox cheerleader!
The former Wolves and Millwall midfielder looked pained to be on duty at the St Mirren v Celtic match, just a couple of miles along the motorway from Ibrox.
“Making a DVD about Andy Halliday? He’s a bang average player!”
“You’re a cheerleader for Celtic these days!”@alexrae1969 ???? @chris_sutton73…
No punches pulled on Scottish Football Extra!

Sunday’s Glasgow derby was the first topic for discussion with Scott McDonald and Stephen Craigan making up the numbers.
Sutton was the last pundit to be asked for his verdict on the derby clash and delivered a scathing account of the action and the claim that Steven Gerrard has made progress this season.
Rae couldn’t bare to hear some painful truths so close to Celtic clinching an eighth title, after a predictable defence of the latest Ibrox revolution tempers were raised when Sutton slammed Rae with the cheerleader tag as both men attempted to talk over each other.
