“Seeing Celtic miss out on the Treble like that, it’s sweet. Not because Aberdeen won, but because they….” —Excited Barry Ferguson who is unbeaten against Hoops Destroys, RIDICULES Brendan Rodgers men for being Sh*t after defeat to Aberdeen, Shares WHY He’s Happy Celtic Lost the Final
You can just imagine what Barry Ferguson must be thinking after watching Celtic collapse in the Scottish Cup final. The former Rangers captain, never shy when it comes to calling out his old rivals, would no doubt have a few choice words after Aberdeen stunned Brendan Rodgers’ side at Hampden.
Disclaimer: This article is a speculative piece intended for entertainment purposes. It is based on the type of views and tone Rangers legend Barry Ferguson has previously expressed in public and on his podcast, but he has not made these specific comments regarding Celtic’s Scottish Cup final defeat. The quotes attributed to him here are fictional and should not be taken as direct or verified statements.
Jimmy Thelin’s Dons weren’t just underdogs — they were written off completely. But in a game where Celtic were expected to cruise to a Treble, Aberdeen showed up with fight, discipline and a fearless attitude. For someone like Ferguson, who values grit and leadership, it was the perfect example of how to rise to the occasion — and how Celtic completely failed to do so.
“Massive credit to Aberdeen and Jimmy Thelin,” you could almost hear Ferguson say on his podcast. “That’s how you turn up for a final. Mitov, Shinnie — they were brilliant. But from Celtic? That was bottle job stuff.”
For all the talk of dominance and squad depth, Celtic folded when it mattered. The final whistle didn’t just signal the end of the match — it ended dreams of a Treble and left their fans stunned. And you just know Ferguson would be smiling at that.
“You expect big players to show up on the big stage. Celtic didn’t. They looked like they thought it was already won. Aberdeen humbled them.”
Rodgers and his side came into Hampden as heavy favourites. The banners were ready, the confetti was waiting. But Aberdeen ripped the script to shreds — and Ferguson, like many Rangers fans, would relish seeing the green half of Glasgow left speechless.
“This should’ve been a procession for Celtic. Instead, it was a reminder that Scottish football still has shocks — and pressure still makes some teams crumble.”
Of course, Ferguson would likely caution Rangers not to gloat for too long. His message would be clear: Celtic will come back stronger, and it’s up to Rangers to be ready. But that doesn’t mean fans shouldn’t enjoy the moment.
“Let’s be honest — seeing Celtic miss out on the Treble like that, it’s sweet. Not because Aberdeen won, but because they exposed Celtic. They didn’t just lose. They got outworked and outclassed.”
Celtic fans might call it bitter, but for Rangers supporters, it’s a rare end-of-season boost. And while Ferguson didn’t need to say a word, you can bet plenty of Light Blues knew exactly what he’d be thinking.
After all, as he’s said many times before: big teams show up on big days — and Celtic just didn’t.
