With virtually no live sport to report on Drew McIntyre has become some sort of celebrity after winning a game of wrestling watched only by a TV audience.
The fact that McIntyre is a ‘Rangers’ fan has given him some sort of celebrity status in the UK with appearances on BT Sport and TalkSPORT.
Enjoying his 15 minutes of fame and probably unsure of any current Ibrox stars he threw out a challenge to fight/wrestle with Scott Brown and Chris Sutton.
The Celtic skipper ignored the challenge from the pony-tailed hardman but always trying to remain topical Paddy Sports decided to play their part.

Ibrox fan McIntyre has known nothing other than Celtic title triumphs for the last nine years.

The excitement of a club from Ibrox joining the top flight in 2016 has quickly been drowned out by the sight of 10 successive domestic trophies being celebrated in the east end of the city.
