Rangers new boy Jake Hastie told to 'grow up fast' by shock jock Adrian Durham after Celtic boast

Jake Hastie has been slammed by loudmouth radio presenter Adrian Durham and told to "grow up fast" after he was filmed on holiday claiming he was "here to stop 10".

The 20-year-old will officially join Rangers from Motherwell when the transfer window opens in two weeks' time and is currently sunning himself in Ibiza following the season's conclusion.

Hastie is one of the hottest prospects in the Scottish game but his boasts on the holiday isle didn't go down well with the shock jock talkSPORT presenter.

In a live stream posted on the Instagram account of former Hearts youngster Rico Quitongo, Hastie declared he's "here to stop 10, ole ole" as he partied at the famous Ocean Beach club.

But Durham told his show this evening: "What about the Rangers new boy, Jake Hastie, he’s been filmed on holiday declaring he will stop Celtic winning ten in a row, no surprise he is teenager, he joins from Motherwell on a free this summer.

"He declared in a video, he is here to stop 10-in-a-row - you’ve just set yourself up for a massive fall.

"Here’s a tip, grow up fast."

Durham is renowned for his bellyaching towards Scottish football. Earlier this year he launched an astonishing attack on Scott Brown and labelled his celebrations after scoring a last minute winner against Kilmarnock as "embarrassing".

Two years ago he collided with former Celtic star and Record Sport columnist Chris Sutton.

Durham took exception to Sutton’s comments on Twitter concerning Arsenal’s 10-2 aggregate defeat to Bayern Munich, suggesting the furore would have been far greater if a Scottish team had suffered the same fate.

The loudmouth DJ hit back in a lengthy radio rant and had a pop at Celtic’s defeat to minnows Lincoln Red Imps in Gibraltar in their Champions League qualifier.

Durham said: "Judging the league by Celtic’s performances is kind of misleading. Celtic are in their best moment in years and have a manager they all think is a genius as Liverpool fans did for a short while.

“So when Celtic lose 7-0 in Barcelona you wonder about the state of the league. Jeez, what would happen to Hamilton? So now Arsenal are in a terrible run of form, a manager the fans were protesting about before the game, crowds are the lowest for years, they aren’t the best England have to offer and recently lost at home to Watford.

“It’s no surprise they got battered, especially after their captain got sent off. Imagine the score if Scott Brown got sent off in Barcelona. Are Arsenal, in the state they’re in, representative of what the Premier League can offer? Of course not and everyone realises it apart from Chris Sutton.

“Celtic are the best Scotland can offer and lost 1-0 to the Lincoln Red Imps of Gibraltar. Sutton has forgotten that after all the hidings dished out to Motherwell and Ross County."
