Rangers striker Kenny Miller claims Scott Brown tipped Aberdeen as Celtic's biggest threat this season to "noise people up".The Light Blues have returned to the Scottish Premiership after a four-year absence and host Hamilton in the curtain-raiser at Ibrox on Saturday.However, Hoops skipper Brown claimed the Dons, who have been runners-up in the previous two seasons, would be the side most likely to push the champions who are going for a sixth straight title.Miller pointed to the fact Rangers beat Celtic on penalties in the William Hill Scottish Cup semi-final at Hampden Park last season as evidence of the Gers' potential challenge but nevertheless is taking Brown's comments with a "pinch of salt"."There is no way Scott Brown actually believes that," said the 36-year-old former Celtic player."He is saying that to get a headline and noise people up but let's be honest about it, he knows from the semi-final last year where yes, we won on penalties but we dominated that game, were worthy winners, - if it hadn't been normal time, it should have been in extra-time."So he knows the challenge we are going to bring this year."Asked if Brown's remarks were just part of the Old Firm rivalry, Miller said: "Again, I don't think Broony got his own (team's) scores against Aberdeen right at Parkhead."He said they came to Parkhead and got points but they never, so we will take that with a pinch of salt as well."Brown said on Monday that in "the last couple of seasons (Aberdeen) have come to Celtic Park and got points and we have struggled up there" - the Dons won both home games with Celtic last season but lost both away fixtures, while Celtic won all four meetings in 2014-15.
