And Jim has also taken aim at Brown, saying he lacks the class expected of a Celtic skipper.The talkSPORT host said on Monday: “It was the celebration after they won, and Rangers would have celebrated if they won, but he was celebrating very, very close to the small number of Rangers supporters who were allowed in.And that’s what led to Gerrard to say, ‘a lack of respect’.“This is what he lacks, he lacks respect and you expect more from a Celtic captain.“I think of Celtic captains in the past, my God, I think of Roy Aitken, of Billy McNeill, the best one ever. Brown doesn’t have it for me in terms of respect. “He lured in Ryan Kent, who lost the plot, but he is 22 and Morelos is the same age.“Brown has been around the block and he knows what he is doing.”Ian Holloway, who was a guest co-host on Mondays show, also believes Brown stepped over the mark by goading Rangers supporters.And the former Blackpool and Queens Park Rangers boss also admitted, like Kent, hed very much like to punch the Celtic midfielder, too.Scott Brown REALLY got under the skin of Rangers’ players3

I look at him sometimes and I want to knock him out, he added.“The passion in that part of the world, it’s all part of it, but you’ve got to be telling your players not to rise to it.“I know I wouldn’t be able to [punch him] and he’s a good player. It’s all about the passion and he gets it.“But I do feel he’s stepped over the mark and you shouldn’t be going to the crowd like that.”
