Sunderland favourite Chris Maguire made a hilarious Newcastle United quip

The forward was taking part in a question and answer session on the Black Cats’ official Twitter account, and was posed a question on whether he would rather play for Newcastle or Rangers.

Maguire, a Celtic fan, takes a sip from a mug emblazoned with their logo and says: “Let me think about that one….None!”

His response pleased Sunderland fans – who responded in their droves – but not Newcastle United supporters, who jested back at the former Oxford United man on social media.

@NUFCblogcouk said: “Agh man. Gutted! Always wanted to sign an average League One midfielder..”

@_T_C_7_ added: “The fact atsu is a better player than him says it all”

@AmazingAllan50 tweeted: “Who are you again?”
