Sutton takes a four-word dig with the SPFL title sealed

Rangers were never really in the title picture after failing to keep up the pace with their rivals since the initial months.

Before their game against St Mirren on Saturday, the Ibrox outfit found themselves a staggering 18 points behind their arch rivals.

With that lead now unassailable, the Hoops have successfully secured their fourth-straight league title.

Via X, Sutton wrote: “Are they still coming?”

Rangers cannot allow Celtic to win the title next season

To end Celtic’s dominance and secure the Scottish Premiership title next season, Gers must execute a strategic overhaul, leveraging their impending takeover and appointing a top-tier manager.

The takeover by 49ers Enterprises and Andrew Cavenagh, expected to conclude soon, will inject vital funds to bolster the squad and infrastructure.

Kevin Thelwell’s appointment will streamline recruitment, focusing on high-impact signings and addressing contract uncertainties for players like James Tavernier to avoid losing key assets.

The new manager must surpass Philippe Clement’s inconsistent tenure and rival Brendan Rodgers’ tactical acumen.

Candidates like Jose Mourinho or Steven Gerrard could inspire a similar rebuild.

Rangers need to prioritise transfer market efficiency, targeting a prolific striker and robust defenders to close the gap with Celtic.

Pre-season planning, including competitive friendlies and top facilities, is crucial to build cohesion.

Fostering a winning mentality, as Gerrard did in 2020-21, will galvanise the squad to challenge Celtic’s financial and psychological edge, ensuring Rangers reclaim the title.
