The battle for Christmas No.1 has grown a little more heated, heightened by a bizarre feud between fans of Little Mix and supporters of Glasgow Rangers FC.

Rangers fans have been campaigning to get the track ‘Glad All Over’ by The Dave Clarke Five to the top singles spot this Christmas, in honour of their striker Joe Garner.

However as Talking Baws reports, this has angered many Little Mix fans – who are hoping that their current single ‘Touch’ while beat off all competition come the week’s end. However, ‘Gers fans have responded in kind. See the Twitter battle unfold below:

The battle for Christmas No.1 is currently being led by Clean Bandit with ‘Rockabye’, while Little Mix are also in competition with Rag ‘N’ Bone Man.

After revealing that they ‘would love to play Glastonbury’, Little Mix also made headlines this week when singer Leigh-Ann Pinncok was reportedly ‘slapped’ by a fan.
