Graeme Souness urged to break Rangers tifo silence as Ibrox transfer backtracking has Hotline in stitches

There might be white smoke over the Vatican but we’re still raking over the ashes from last weekend’s Old Firm clash.

It might have been a dead rubber but the flames are still burning over the off-the-field shenanigans with objects thrown and that Gers tifo.

Andy Logan, Livingston, said: “Another instance of objects, this time a bottle, thrown by Rangers fans. When will the powers that be grow a spine and hand out appropriate punishment? This has happened consistently over a few years, but still they sit on their hands. Start deducting points.”

John Scott, Port Glasgow, said: “So Rangers' fan representatives say that a banner threatening to kill is ‘edgy’ rather than offensive. As one of the people it was threatening I found it offensive. I also think it falls foul of our current laws on hate speak. If pointing a gun at someone is edgy then Russians are being edgy all over Ukraine.”

Peter Lyons emailed: “Graeme Souness’ silence is deafening regarding the shocking tifo. Over to you Graeme.”

Steve Macleod, Wokingham, said: “Anyone who knows me in real life knows I’m a bit of a wet wipe worrier, but I have to say the tifo last Sunday had the ultras edge and some humour too. Frankly it is the biggest non story of the season. Relax everyone.”

James McParland, Coatbridge, said: “Why those young chaps from Union Bears think a tifo of Tom Selleck of Magnum fame with a gun will upset the Scottish champions and their fans is truly baffling.”

Celtic’s old boss Ange Postecoglou is in the Europa League Final with Spurs but Alan Flett emailed: “So Alan Brazil reckons that Celtic would get to the final of the Europa League. What a laugh. Does he honestly think that Celtic could compete with the likes of Lyon, Fenerbahce, Bilbao
