Chris Sutton labelled ‘pathetic’ by Robbie Savage for dodging Rangers and Celtic question

Robbie Savage mockingly called Chris Sutton “pathetic” after he declined to respond to a title question about Rangers and Celtic.

The Gers defeated Hearts 5-0 on Saturday, February 24, to take a five-point lead over Celtic at the top of the Scottish Premiership.

Although Celtic still has a match against Motherwell on Sunday, February 25, Rangers are currently clearly ahead.

On BBC Radio 5’s 606 [24 February, 8:15pm], co-host Savage questioned Sutton seven times on whether Rangers would go on to win the title. Sutton repeatedly sidestepped the subject.

Sutton gave a variety of responses, such as, “I think the Rangers should lose,” “It seems like it’s over, or at least Rangers fans think so,” and “at this moment.”

Sutton gave a variety of responses, such as, “I think Rangers should lose,” “It appears to be over, at least that’s what Rangers supporters think,” and “right now, they’re favorites.”

Sutton, a former Celtic striker, also stated that Rangers were “favorites” and “ahead,” desperately trying to avoid saying with certainty that Rangers would ultimately win the championship.

Savage responded, “What a pathetic person.”

To give Sutton his due, he did commend the Rangers’ “remarkable” play since Philippe Clement took over for Michael Beale.

Even though it will be fantastic to rub it in when the title is lifted, it was also evident that he was just having a little fun with his responses.

A few months from now.

The Gers are suddenly heavy favorites to win the title after defeating Hearts, or more accurately, thanks to their performance in cruising to a five-goal victory.
The Light Blues aren’t giving up just yet, even if there might only be two points left at the conclusion of the weekend.

Compared to five months ago, when everything were hopeless, Clement has done wonders at Ibrox and has restored the fan base’s faith.

That’s not to suggest we’ll win every game from now until the conclusion of the season, but Celtic cannot stop us right now.
