Celtic ‘small-time behavior’ mocked by BBC journalist after what Rangers did to them.
Nick McPheat has criticized Celtic for failing to secure a “historic” ten-title run when Rangers won the SPL in 2021.
On Thursday (8 February), a journalist wrote about the Scottish clubs’ most tumultuous periods on the BBC Sport website.
He criticized the Hoops for failing to win the league title in “spectacular fashion” three years ago.
The Gers won their first trophy in ten years with a 25-point lead over their Old Firm rivals, who had previously won the Scottish football championship nine times in a row.
“Celtic fans, your team isn’t immune from small-time behaviour either,” McPheat went on to say. “Building up nine years of
consecutive league titles, only to watch a historic 10-in-a-row bid fail in spectacular fashion is undoubtedly your club’s crowning tinpot moment.”
Celtic fans won’t want reminding of Rangers’ title success
It was a tremendous disappointment for Celtic fans when their club failed to win the title in 2021, after there had
been so
much discussion about them perhaps winning 10 in a row in the years leading up to the season.
They were essentially uncontested for a number of years as the Gers took their time returning to the Scottish Premiership
and putting themselves in a position to compete for the ultimate award.
But they won the title in style under Steven Gerrard, remaining unbeaten throughout the season and scoring more than 100 points.
After a lack of success, the Light Blues hope to reclaim the trophy as they compete with their Old Firm rivals at the top of the table this season.
There are currently only three points separating the two Glasgow clubs, with Philippe Clement’s side able to tie the score and
assure an exciting few months ahead with their game in hand.
