Green eyed Celtic monster spotted on the Hotline but Rangers reminded what their Nice win really means

It's three points on the board for Rangers but it was hardly a Super Sunday as far as the grumpy bears on the Hotline were concerned.

Jason Holt's own goal was as good as it got in a drab game in Perth that saw Philippe Clement's team get back to winning ways in the league. But in contrast with Celtic's 5-0 rout in Dingwall, and their own 4-1 win over Nice, it was hardly inspiring. Dr Robert S Pender said: "So boring to watch. Lack of flair up front. How is it St Johnstone can unearth some exciting players with a very low budget and less wages?"

Alan Flett said: "An impressive win in Europe followed by yet another poor domestic showing, once again begs the question: why are Rangers so good in Europe but so poor in the SPFL? Could it be that the players just can't get motivated to face the likes of Celtic and Aberdeen but, are right up for the big games?"

Joe Graham, Garrowhill, told us: "European Rangers struggle again domestically. A hard-fought three points in Perth against St Johnstone isn’t what the fans are looking for. The magic wand Philippe Clement has in Europe needs to be waved in the SPFL if there’s any chance to catch up on Celtic and Aberdeen. Albeit it we didn’t lose any ground, but the performance is not to our liking. To win the Europa League would be magic, but ask any true blue supporter what they would rather have, and that is to finish above Gordon Ashley’s Celtic.

As far as that win in Nice goes, Graham Roberts, Edinburgh, thinks he's spotted the green-eyed monster skulking around. He emailed: "The jealousy from the green side of Glasgow is unbelievable. They have a pop at Rangers beating a poor Nice team yet when they thump an even poorer team like Slovan Bratislava suddenly they become favourites
