Rangers v Celtic: Halting unbeaten run not enough to paper cracks, says James McFadden – Finishing 2nd in a Two Horse Race is not good enough for Celtic! #Celtic #Rangers #ScottishFootball #scottishfootballmatters

Celtic supporters are really depressed.

After 9 successive Scottish Premiership titles and 4 Trebles in a row, they have had one season where 2nd in the league is their sole consolation.

Only that is no consolation at all – because 2nd to Rangers is nowhere as far as Celtic followers are concerned.

Of course, Rangers – or Sevco as some in green favour – were absent from the Premiership for five seasons.

That was a very dull period for the Parkhead club. A Two Horse Race is no fun at all if the other horse can’t even make it to the gallops.

But Rangers/Sevco are now back – and are galloping too fast for Celtic to keep up. All those seasons of swatting Also Rans left Celtic richer money-wise but complacent.

As for the rest of the Premiership clubs, they go through the motions every season, helping the media pretend that the top league is a competition.

It is NOT.

It is a dreadful, boring and unacceptable duopoly.

This farce must end NOW.

Either Celtic and Rangers agree to a drastic overhaul of the finances and structure of Scottish football – OR THEY LEAVE.

Time for Change.
