CHRIS SUTTON and Kevin Thomson ended up agreeing to disagree during a feisty on-air debate during today's Celtic vs Rangers clash at Hampden.
Giovanni van Bronckhorst's side ended up winners as they came from behind to book a spot in the Scottish Cup final against Hearts.
Scott Arfield and a Carl Starfelt own goal were the difference after Greg Taylor had put Ange Postecoglou's team ahead in the second half.
Referee Bobby Madden was forced to hand out seven yellow cards during the match but he could have easily handed out more.
One controversial incident saw Rangers striker Kemar Roofe bring down Daizen Maeda as he aimed to counter attack.
Sutton felt the foul was worthy of a red card, but Thomson felt the yellow handed out was enough.
The Kelty Hearts boss said: "That's a shocker really, I don't like to see that."
Sutton then responded: "I'll tell you, that's a red card."
Thomson then continued "I'm not so sure that's a red..." before Sutton hit back with "Where has he caught him?".
"It's just a yellow card. It's just a professional foul, Chris," Thomson said. "He has just taken one for the team, it ain't malicious. He has just taken one for the team and clipped his ankle."
"He clipped his heel on his shin," Sutton then quipped. "We have seen the pictures."
Thomson got the last word in, adding: "He's not trying to play the ball. It's a professional foul. Maeda is driving away."
