Andy Halliday shares verdict on Rangers breaking Celtic’s 69-game unbeaten record
Andy Halliday has claimed that Rangers won’t finish the season unbeaten under Steven Gerrard.
The Bears are currently unbeaten in all competitions and have opened a strong gap at the top of the Scottish Premier League to Celtic.
After the 4-0 win over Ross County, the Gers have now opened up a 13-point gap to their fierce rivals as they charge towards the title.
Halliday claimed that no team will ever surpass the unbeaten record set by Celtic under Brendan Rodgers back in 2017.
“People are talking about the unbeaten run, I wouldn’t go as far as that,” he said on the Open Goal.
“I wouldn’t get as carried away. I just think the amount of games you’re going to play. That Rodgers’ season with Celtic, I don’t think we’ll see that again.
“I do think that it’s going to come, but seeing the next four, five, six, seven games? I don’t see it coming.”
Celtic went 69 games unbeaten back in 2016-17 and eventually lost that in a 4-0 defeat against Hearts in Tynecastle.
At the time, Rodgers claimed that he can’t ever see that run being beaten, and Halliday appears to agree, despite Rangers looking untouchable.
Gerrard won’t be targeting this, and he will be taking it one game at a time.
Last season, the Bears got a sniff of success and threw it all away when it got down to the business end against the likes of Hearts and that can’t happen again.
Let’s forget about these unbeaten runs and take each game at once until we are lifting that title and who knows? More than just the league.
