Celtic hero reveals Rangers family divide and wild Helicopter Sunday fallout

Former Celtic striker Scott McDonald has revealed his family's divided Old Firm allegiances during an appearance on the Open Goal podcast. Despite growing up in Australia, McDonald explained that his father's side of the family from Castlemilk supported Celtic, while his mother hailed from Govan and came from a family of Rangers supporters.

McDonald also disclosed that Motherwell rejected a transfer bid from Rangers for him in January 2007. Celtic subsequently signed him for around £700,000 later that year, where he went on to score 64 goals in 128 appearances and won two trophies.
