How did legends cope with Tennent's Sixes revival?

What the report says
BBC Sport Scotland reported that Celtic won the revived Tennent’s Sixes at Braehead Arena in Glasgow, edging Rangers 5-4 in the final after the tournament returned following a 33-year break. The competition, once a familiar part of Scottish football, was staged again over the weekend in a six-a-side format on a pitch laid over the arena’s ice rink.
The BBC’s recap focused on how the event unfolded as much as the result. It noted the unusual playing conditions, with the venue converted from its usual ice hockey use, and described a generally low-key physical tone compared with traditional league matches. One red card was highlighted in the group stage, while the final produced the biggest drama. The report also pointed out the tournament’s modified penalty format, where takers started from halfway and had 10 seconds to shoot.
Rangers had the upper hand in one of the headline derby games, beating Celtic 7-1 before the final. Barry Ferguson was involved in that side’s success, and Martyn Waghorn scored five goals in the match, according to the BBC. But Celtic recovered in the final to lift the trophy, ending Partick Thistle’s long hold on the title since 1993. The revival matters because it reintroduces a nostalgic Scottish football competition in a modern indoor setting, blending old tournament traditions with a more exhibition-style atmosphere.
