BT Sport has provided a unique build up to Sunday’s League Cup Final with behind-the-scenes coverage of the final days before the Hampden clash.
On Wednesday night they took their cameras along to Celtic Park to capture the drama of the win against Hamilton Accies among the supporters while looking in on The Linen 1906 ‘good wee boozer for Rangers fans’ as the midweek action unfolded.
Celtic fans and players are filmed during and after the match but there is no footage from The Linen once Andy Considine scored the equaliser.
? “I’m here to deliver silverware for the people of Rangers, not for myself.”
? What do you make of the job Steven Gerrard has done?
“Don’t ask me that.”Rangers ? Celtic.

While Chris Sutton locked horns with Neil Lennon in an interview there is a touching moment at Murray Park where Steven Gerrard and Emma Dodds share a kiss (3 minutes 12 seconds) before some hard hitting questions and answers about the match. For some in will have brought back memories of Jim White and Brian Laudrup during the Sir Walter Years.
Gerrard talked about ‘getting the Real Rangers back’ while Lennon straight-batted every question as his old team-mate fished for comments about the current side from Ibrox.
