Breaking News:RANGERS PLAYMAKER HAS SIGNED A ONE-YEAR CONTRACT TO EXTEND HIS STAY

Upfront Ally McCoist admits he is starting to fear Rangers’ unbeaten romp to a 55th title was due to the fact supporters were locked out of stadiums due to Covid.

 

Steven Gerrard masterminded a season for the ages as they denied Celtic a 10th consecutive title, wiping out the competition and winning the Premiership by 25 points. The domination was pronounced but that title win now appears a singular act of defiance rather than a sea change in Glasgow. Celtic have won 12 out of the last 13 titles and they are primed and ready to extend their dominance after opening up a five-point lead following Sunday’s 3-0 trouncing.

Now McCoist has revealed for the first time he can see merit in the theory which Celtic fans raised over Gerrard and Rangers’ defining season. Speaking to talkSPORT, he said: “Do you know what someone said to me? I brushed it off at the time, and that particular season was a fantastic achievement, but I just wonder if the fact there was no people at the games did help Rangers more than I thought.

I felt it wouldn’t have made that much of a difference, but I look at some of the players now and I think they are affected by it and don’t seem to be handling the pressure. Maybe that season, playing behind closed doors actually suited them.”
