Barry Ferguson, recently made light-hearted fun of Celtic striker Daizen Maeda after spotting a post Maeda shared online. The moment sparked interest among fans, particularly because of Ferguson’s witty response: “I’ll save my words for rainy days.” The remark came after Maeda posted something that Ferguson clearly felt didn’t warrant a serious reply—possibly a motivational quote, a boastful message, or a celebratory post after a match.
Ferguson’s comment reflects his typically no-nonsense attitude and his long-standing rivalry with Celtic, which dates back to his playing days. Known for his strong opinions and passion for Rangers, Ferguson’s reaction wasn’t overly harsh, but it did carry a tone of playful sarcasm, suggesting that he didn’t take Maeda’s post too seriously.
Fans on both sides of the Old Firm divide reacted quickly. Some laughed along with Ferguson, while others defended Maeda’s right to post as he pleases. The incident highlights the intense rivalry between Celtic and Rangers, which extends beyond the pitch into the world of social media. While Ferguson’s words were brief, they managed to stir the pot and keep the banter alive between the two sides of Glasgow.
