Saved

As Celtic prepare themselves to celebrate 3 in a row, with Rangers absent from the top league for two of them, imaginations are running wild amongst their supporters that they are now on the road to ten in a row.

Of course, Rangers don’t have our troubles to seek, but we are on course to return to the Premiership in August 2015, shortly after it is expected that Celtic will have secured their 4th title on the bounce.
No Rangers fan I know expects that we will win the title in 2016 on our return to the Premiership, as Celtic have been able to call on Champions League riches, and some astute dealings by Neil Lennon, to paper over the financial cracks at Celtic Park.

We do however, believe it is slightly presumptuous by Celtic fans that the biggest club in Scotland (that’s Rangers) will not be able to recover our rightful place at the top of Scottish football until 2023.

It strikes me more that those indulging in such conjecture are more likely to be trying to kick the Rangers support while we are down than actually believing it.

It may be that Rangers have more important fish to fry in the coming months than bother about retorts to this kind of nonsense, but Michael Grant can be assured that this article has been saved for a rainy day

Bill.
