“Too many people say a lot but do nothing” – John Hartson slaps down Tavernier for latest Celtic comments

This is something I believe all Celtic fans can get on board with.

Just prior to the League Cup final, we had to endure the unending nonsense from the Ibrox players and manager in the press where Michael Beale spoke about Ange being lucky and Fashion Sakala referring to us as ‘the other mob’ and how they are the better team.

Sakala’s was clearly comments that were scripted that someone in Ibrox told him to say and Beale? Well, Beale just lets his mouth run away with him.

And another player that has let his mouth run away with him was James Tavernier.

The Rangers skipper flapped his gums in the media by claiming that Celtic will meet the ‘real’ Rangers in the next Hampden showdown in an interview that tells me one thing.

These guys have learned nothing.

And John Hartson has brilliantly called them out on it.

Speaking on The Go Radio Football Show, Hartson said, “I’ve spoken about this before. It doesn’t concern me.

“Because in life there’s doers as there’s sayers. Don’t be a sayer, be a doer.

“Make sure that if you’re in the team for Rangers you make sure that when you cross that line, whether it’s at Celtic Park, Ibrox or Hampden that you are at your very, very best.

“And you’ve got to hope that every other player around you is at their very, very best and then you might, you just might, catch Celtic on a bit of an off day or you might play better than Celtic on the day, and then you’ll win the game.

“There was there was a few quotes coming out of the Rangers dressing room before and I said the same it doesn’t make one bit of difference.

“You do your talking on the pitch and then by doing that, that’s when you’re gonna win the respect of the supporters.

“In my life too many people say a lot but do nothing. BE A DOER, don’t say it, go do it.”

This is bang on by Hartson but I fear that come the end of April, Tavernier is just going to be labelled as another sayer and will be adding another two failures to his long list of failures since becoming the Ibrox captain.
