Former Celtic striker Chris Sutton says Rangers are handing their rivals their dream of winning 10 titles in a row.

Rangers parted way with manager Mark Warburton at the weekend with Celtic 27 points clear at the top of the Scottish Premiership.

Sutton says Rangers supremo Dave King should have been bolder and fired Warburton beforehand, and hit out at a lack of planning appearing to be in place at Ibrox.

Commenting on Twitter, Sutton said that Rangers are becoming their own worst enemies and Celtic are likely to profit.

He said: “There is no plan, director of football? Is there going to be a permanent manager? I thought that’s what businessmen were supposed to do and plan for the future.

“It’s been an absolute shambles and Rangers are handing Celtic 10 in a row on a plate.”

The title this year looks already to be a foregone conclusion and Rangers face a battle simply to finish in second place.

The two teams play each other in early March for the final time in the league campaign, with Celtic already recording three wins in all competitions over their rivals this season.

Brendan Rodgers’ Celtic are unbeaten in domestic competition this campaign and their relentless success has only piled the pressure onto Rangers, as they edge one step closer to a sixth title in a row.
