Chris Sutton gets absolutely clattered live on BT Sport

Rangers fans will be watching this over and over.

Former Celtic forward Chris Sutton has made it his retirement's work to wind up Gers supporters at every opportunity imaginable and he relished his old team's victory over their arch-rivals on Saturday so much that he was eager to have a bit more fun the following day. Sutton was discussing the weekend's action in the Scottish Premiership when he was rudely interrupted, although it was definitely pre-organised to add to the entertainment value of the programme. As he strolled behind the goal, notes in hand, he found himself on the receiving end of a slide tackle from Motherwell legend Stephen Craigan. https://twitter.com/sportingawayday/status/911921066070683649 It's absolutely clear that everybody knew it was coming but the way that Sutton went down would suggest he didn't expect the impact to come quite so hard. It's been a weekend for men in suits hitting the deck in Scotland as, 24 hours earlier Rangers manager Pedro Caixinha went flying under an accidental challenge from his own player, Josh Windass. Sutton is one of the more outspoken pundits currently working so the embarrassment of being upended on live television likely won't shut him up for long. And he would have to do some serious digging in his Twitter mentions to find sympathy after being wiped out. Twitter really is a lovely place to hang out.
