Ally McCoist in Rangers vs Celtic guard of honour wisecrack

Ally McCoist scoffed at the idea of Rangers having to give Celtic's players a guard of honour ahead of yesterday's derby.

The Gers legend insists those sorts of gestures don't belong in the fixture between Glasgow's big two.

"I've just had one of the boys text me there, brilliant, and this is a great idea," McCoist said on talkSPORT. "Rangers should have done a guard of honour, right, and what we should have done is all the players should have had their water bottles and skooshed them, like the boy Cerny did at Celtic Park.

"It will never catch on, Old Firm guard of honour? Never in a million years will it catch on."
