Chris Sutton couldn’t help tagging in his new sparring partner after Celtic’s dramatic Scottish Cup win over Hearts.
Kris Ajer delivered the trophy with a forceful penalty to clinch the Quadruple Treble that had looked lost moments earlier with Ryan Christie saw Celtic’s third penalty saved by Craig Gordon.
Sutton watched the drama unfold alongside Ally McCoist on duty for Premier Sport with the two strikers almost coming as part of a package with Premier or BT Sport.

Throughout the season there has been good natured banter between the two men as they tease about the fortunes of their former clubs.
McCoist has enjoyed the success of his old club in the Europa League while Sutton suffered watching Celtic crash to four emphatic defeats as they finished bottom of their group.
Today was the turn for Sutton to enjoy the upper hand as Celtic completed a run of 12 successive trophy wins with a dramatic win over Hearts clinched by Ajer’s penalty after two saves from Conor Hazard.
