Kyle Lafferty gets into Twitter spat with TV presenter David Tanner
The Northern Irishman responded to a comment by the broadcaster which insisted Lafferty had been causing trouble behind the scenes prior to his exit from Ibrox in 2012.
Tanner had been debating with supporters over the perception of Steven Naismith, who also left Rangers at the time of the club’s financial implosion.

Lafferty discovered the tweet and shot back: “Causing bother within the club [laughing emojis] talk some s*** you do David. Jog on mate.”
Tanner then attempted to diffuse the situation, saying: “Now, now! There was conflict, big man!”
However, the striker was having none of it, ending the back-and-forth with: “Once a [bell emoji] always a bell.”
