Ian Crocker has long been the familiar voice of Sky Sports in Scotland, especially when it comes to Celtic and Rangers matches.
His commentary has become synonymous with Scottish football, with Celtic supporters particularly recalling his enthusiastic coverage of their 3-0 victory over Rangers in 2022. Reo Hatate and Liel Abada were the stars of the show that day, as Celtic reigned supreme at Celtic Park.
Despite his passion for both Glasgow clubs, Crocker often faces criticism from fans questioning his allegiances. However, the veteran broadcaster finds it amusing when social media users try to determine his loyalties based on his commentary.
Crocker explained, “It’s funny when people try to label me as a Rangers or Celtic supporter based on my reactions. It’s all nonsense. Sometimes I may not go all out for a goal because I’m trying to clarify the details. It comes with the territory and you just have to roll with it.”
While some may continue to speculate about his favorite team, Crocker remains dedicated to supporting his hometown team, Weymouth, and West Ham. Ultimately, his professionalism shines through in his coverage of both Celtic and Rangers matches.
One of Crocker’s standout moments came during Celtic’s thrilling 3-2 win over Rangers, where his commentary captured the excitement of the game. It was a night to remember for Celtic fans, as they celebrated a crucial victory on their path to reclaiming the league title.
