Charlie Nicholas slams Celtic legend Stan Petrov as he questions his punditry credentials

Charlie Nicholas has criticised Stan Petrov's Celtic knowledge and questioned why BT Sport use the Bulgarian as a pundit.

The 42-year-old was the in-studio pundit for Celtic's Europa League 4-3 defeat against Real Betis in Seville.

Petrov was drafted in after Chris Sutton and Neil Lennon were refused entry to Ibrox as the broadcasters devised an alternative plan.

But former Hoops star Nicholas launched an unprovoked attack on Petrov and claimed that he didn't know anything about the current Celtic squad.

Nicolas was a regular pundit on Sky Sports' Soccer Saturday show for years but the 59-year-old was replaced this summer.
