Another normal weekend in Glasgow as Celtic win again and Rangers humiliate themselves.
On Saturday, Brendan Rodgers kept up hopes of winning another Treble after Celtic beat Raith Rovers to progress in the Scottish Cup.
Then, 24 hours later, Rangers were dumped out by Queen’s Park in one of the biggest cup upsets, as Celtic’s Treble chances were provided with another boost.
You would think the entertainment of just getting beat by a lower-league side would be enough action provided by Philippe Clement’s side.
But James Tavernier topped it all off by watching his stoppage-time penalty being saved by Calum Ferrie.
As you can imagine, this topic was discussed on talkSPORT, as Gabby Agbonlahor and Jeff Stelling brought Celtic into the conversation.
Celtic are ‘laughing’ at Rangers after Scottish Cup defeat to Queen’s Park
You have to applaud Clement for lasting this long in the job, normally Rodgers has already seen off the Rangers manager, but with a 13-point gap and the trophies still coming in for Celtic, the man in the Ibrox dugout is still in charge.
Jeff Stelling stuck the boot into the Gers by stating on talkSPORT Breakfast that Celtic are ‘laughing’ at their rivals.
Whilst Gabby Agbonlahor was trying to get hold of an absent Ally McCoist and explained how Celtic are preparing for Bayern Munich, whilst Rangers are losing to a second-division side.
“I have been trying to look if we have Ally’s (McCoist) landline number,” said Agbonlahor. “He’s not answering his phone or his mobile. Can we get his house number? Just ring it until he answers.
“I went to the Glasgow derby last year. I think Celtic won by about three or four. On the way back to the car, the taxi man had on the local radio. They weren’t happy. I would hate to listen to that radio channel last night. They weren’t happy!”
Jeff Stelling added: “Especially when you are in a goldfish bowl of a city like Glasgow and Celtic fans, they have had one of their greatest weekends ever. Laughing at Rangers.”
Agbonlahor then stated: “Bayern Munich in a few days, in the Champions League for Celtic. Then your rivals are losing to a second-division team.”
Celtic prepare for Champions League clash against Bayern Munich
Healthy lead at the top of the table. League Cup in hand. And favourites for the Scottish Cup.
So, it’s now time to enjoy what is going to be an enthralling Champions League encounter against Bayern Munich on Wednesday night.
It’s unfortunate that Daizen Maeda will be suspended because he has probably been Celtic’s best player this season.
But time to create history, and ruffle some feathers because Bayern’s results on the road in Europe should provide the Celtic fans with hope.
