Chris Sutton delivered a tongue-in-cheek admission after Rangers saw a contentious penalty given against them in their win over Kilmarnock at Ibrox on 2 January.
With the three points, Gers closed the gap to five points and with a game in hand, they can be within two points of the league leaders.
Sutton wrote on Twitter, “Breaking News: A penalty has been awarded against Rangers…”
Boring by now
Sutton’s tongue-in-cheek comments on Twitter, mocking Rangers for a penalty awarded against them, reflect his known penchant for partisanship.
As a former Celtic player, he has been consistently vocal about his support for Celtic and his biases often colour his commentary.
While his comments may be intended as light-hearted banter, they underscore a pattern of favouritism towards Celtic and a tendency to provoke rival fans, especially those of Rangers.
The claim that Gers receive more penalties than the Hoops doesn’t align with statistical evidence, as refereeing decisions are typically diverse and influenced by various factors.
Sutton’s provocative remarks seem designed to ignite a reaction from the Ibrox faithful, contributing to the longstanding rivalry between the two Glasgow clubs.
By amplifying perceived injustices against Rangers, Sutton plays into the narrative that has fueled the intense rivalry, generating engagement and reactions on social media.
