Rangers' Clint Hill

Former Crystal Palace chairman Simon Jordan has praised Rangers defender Clint Hill on social networking site Twitter.

Hill was the star for Rangers at the weekend, as he scored the equaliser against Celtic in the Old Firm derby.

The 38-year-old found the net in the 87th minute of the Scottish Premiership game at Celtic Park on Sunday afternoon.

The former Queens Park Rangers and Stoke City defender had a good game overall and has been playing relatively well for the Gers so far this season.

Former Palace chairman Jordan has praised Hill on Twitter, while Southampton forward Charlie Austin was pleased to see his ex-QPR teammate score against the Bhoys in the Old Firm derby at Celtic Park on Sunday afternoon.

Rangers are third in the Scottish Premiership table at the moment with 47 points from 28 matches.

The Gers are eight points behind second-placed Aberdeen and are as many as 33 points behind leaders Celtic.

Rangers will return to action on Saturday afternoon when they take on Hamilton Academical at Ibrox in the Scottish Premiership.
