Sniggering Rangers told Celtic Treble tears will dry quickly as Modric is more Murray style moonbeams
Rangers fans have been having a giggle at Celtic's tears after Treble failure on the Hotline all week.
But Hoops fans have hit back and insisted their club has the last laugh. Kenny Wilson, Moffat, said: 'With Rangers fans at long last having something to cheer about this season it makes me laugh that Celtic only doing a double this season is something to gloat about.
'Yet another season winning nothing, getting beat at home by Queen's Park yet our captain crying is something to chuckle at. If only your own players have a fraction of his talent or passion maybe they would be in with a chance of winning the League Cup.'
Peter Lyons, Blantyre, said: 'Can I ask if true why were you walking past Hampden on Cup Final day when the Govan Galacticos were knocked out in an earlier round by that euro force Queen's Park. Every single Hoops fan still has tears of laughter.'
Glen Mitchell emailed: 'The usual Ibrox leaning supporters of a simply unsuccessful club are taking the mickey out of Callum McGregor shedding a few tears.
'This is a player who has won in excess of 20 trophies, six of which came in the Gerrard period, where they won one from nine. St Johnstone won more than they did during Steven Gerrard's tenure. Don't forget the tears from Ryan Jack either when they lost a League Cup Final.'
Mark McManus, Purley, said: 'I was pleased to see the usual Rangers support on here celebrating a Celtic loss in lifting the Treble. It's great to see that they have something to celebrate at the end of the season.
'No doubt they will be gloating over the billions they will be spending next season to catch up with the champions of Scotland with the one of six managers in the frame along with Luca Modric who apparently is chomping at the bit for a move to Ibrox.
"I say get Slippy back. He has unfinished business as he left early to be successful at Aston villa and Saudi Arabia.'
Meanwhile, the Rangers boss search drags on and Robert Livingston, Palm Beach, said: 'Maybe they should have put half a dozen names in a hat a month ago and have Andrew Cavenagh – who knows nothing about soccer – pull one out. If it's true the new owners are giving Rangers £100m to spend they should have gone and got the best – Jose Mourinho.'
Elsewhere, a tale of two hitmen with Gers' Cyriel Dessers on target for his country and ex-Celt Kyogo out in the cold in France.
Chris Lowe, Yoker, said: 'With Dessers scoring in a Green and White jersey for the Nigeria national team, I'm surprised he hasn't got £30 million rated headlines with mythical Italian teams interested. That's 29 for the season for Cyril, if he played across the city there would be a bidding war.'
While Stephen Mulhern, Dumbarton, said: 'What bigger incentive does Brendan Rodgers need to pick up the phone to Kyogo after reports claim he has been told to find a new club? I've watched every Celtic match since his departure and you don't need to be a rocket scientist to see they are a shadow of a team with him missing.'
Finally a word for a promotion hero.
Stephen Johnstone, Ardentinny, said: 'David Martindale has been outstanding for Livingston, juggling both roles as manager and keeping the club from extinction.
'He deserves the next managerial award as others would have thrown the towel in. Well done Davie, you are a true professional, you hung in there and hope you reap the rewards next season.'
