Rangers hero Ally McCoist has fired a hilarious Celtic one liner amid Chris Sutton's ban from Ibrox.

Sutton was denied access to Rangers' ground last week after the Govan club felt he posed a security threat at their match against Lyon.

On this week's edition of BT Sport's Scottish Football Extra show McCoist and Sutton had a bit of banter about the issue as they were quizzed by host Darrell Currie.

Asked if he was frustrated after Celtic's defeat to Bayer Leverkusen last night, Sutton said: “Yes, with the Celtic performance but I’ve been quite positive because I have been allowed into three football grounds this last week.

“I heard though that, Ally, you had a bit of complication getting into Paradise?”

McCoist then responded: “Absolutely not Christopher no complication at all. I was welcomed there as normal with open arms.

“There was a little bit of patter at the car park. On my way in two security lads said ‘At least we’re letting you in McCoist’. One of those lines. And they were laughing.

“And I said ‘So you should lads’. And they asked ‘Why’s that?’ And I said ‘Because I’m actually fifth top scorer at this stadium!”.
