Chris Sutton has blasted Rangers for the “shameful” Old Firm away fans shutout and insisted it will take the shine out of Saturday’s Premiership super showdown.

Michael Beale’s side will square up with the champions at Parkhead at the weekend looking to keep their slim title hopes alive.

But there will be no Rangers supporters to roar on their side after the Glasgow clubs slammed the doors shut on away ends at both grounds amid safety concerns with the recently reduced allocations.

Celtic and Rangers allowed around 800 travelling punters into stadiums in recent seasons in the wake of Ibrox chiefs slashing the traditional 7500 capacity in the Broomloan Stand in Govan.
