Mischievous Ally McCoist seizes on Celtic reverse ferret as Rangers icon in hysterics over penalty meme

Gloating Ally McCoist served up a stat bomb which left sparring partner Alan Brazil stunned over who tops the table when it comes to receiving penalties in Scottish football.

The Rangers icon came armed with his trusty facts book which shows the Premiership champions have received one more spot kick that their rivals. He joked Brendan Rodgers' side received their "usual" two spot kicks in Saturday's bonkers 1-1 draw with Motherwell as Luis Palma was denied by Liam Kelly before David Turnbull converted from 12 yards out. And the running battle with his on-air pal led McCoist to the edge of hysterics as he recalled a loaded meme that had him in stitches.

Speaking on talkSPORT, the Ibrox icon said: "Have some of that, I had written it down that I was going to have a go at you and that was it (Celtic getting more penalties than Rangers). Have you seen the one of the wee fella falling down in the garden? He's playing in the garden and he trips over and it goes to referee and he goes 'penalty to Rangers'. It's tremendous."

And the banter didn't stop there as McCoist showed the instincts which led him to become Rangers' record goalscorer as Brazil hesitated on reading aloud the grim stat which states Celtic are the first British team in history to go 15 games without winning a game in the Champions League.

McCoist added: "Celtic have made history? I'll read it. Brendan has put what down (15 games without a win in the Champions League)?
