Paddy Power takes superb aim at the Rangers fans after draw with Celtic at Ibrox

Ibrox Stadium

Good old Paddy Power. The bookmaker never misses a trick when it comes to Glasgow Derby to get social media posts out there to promote its brand.

And why should it? Football is all about fun and Paddy Power has earned a reputation for being one of the best accounts out there for ripping into all football teams.

We told how it took aim at Fabio Silva for his disgraceful antics at Ibrox on Sunday as the Portuguese auditioned for the Olympic diving team.

His theatrics won his team a penalty and changed the course of the Glasgow Derby. 2-0 up and cruising, Silva’s dive earned Rangers a lifeline in which they took to grab a 3-3 draw in a crucial title match in Govan.

Philippe Clement looking daft a full-time

As well as Alex Rae making a fool of himself at full time, so did Philippe Clement and 48,000 Rangers fans.

After booing their team off the park at halftime, the Ibrox clan celebrated the draw like a win and Paddy Power took full advantage of those scenes:

Now I get why they reacted like this. Coming from 2-0 down to snatch a draw is a decent achievement but let’s not forget one thing.

Rangers had to win that game at Ibrox. If they wanted to win the league, they had to go out and show that they could beat us in a meaningful game.

They didn’t, again. And now the title is in Brendan Rodgers‘ hands heading into the split with the final derby game still to come at Celtic Park.

Those celebrations at full-time look a little premature and daft now from the Rangers manager but hey, let them get on with it.

They do their talking off the park, we do ours on it.
