In the lead up to the Glasgow Derby game this weekend, we’re looking at some of the stuff which has been said this season with regards to both clubs and the pundits who have got it horribly wrong.
One man who lit up social media back in November was former Celtic striker Craig Beattie.
Relatively new to the punditry game, Beattie looked nervous and a bit vacant as he delivered his verdict on where he saw the title race going.
Whether the former player was trying to make headlines or not by saying what he did, we don’t know. Beattie questioned Celtic’s ability to win the league under pressure.
In front of the Sky Sports camera, he stated while everyone is asking if Rangers* can hold up, they should be asking about Celtic’s mettle.

This has turned out to be a classic interview. Four months on and under pressure Rangers* have folded like a cheap tent. After the pressure felt at Celtic Park after our defeat at the end of 2019, we’ve shown why we are the champions. 13, points clear with a League Cup in the bag and a semi-final date to look forward to, not bad.
