Well, Rangers have done it.
It’s been a long – very long – 10 years for the Ibrox club, but they’re back at the top of Scottish football.
Celtic’s 0-0 draw away to Dundee United today confirmed Rangers as title winners for the 2020-21 campaign.

Gerrard’s side have a trip to Parkhead penciled in for March 21 and it’ll be fascinating to see whether the Bhoys give the newly-crowned champions a guard of honour.
