Steven Gerrard Leads Rangers To Their FirstScottish Title In 10 Years
Rangers are Scottish champions for the first time
in 10 years after Celtic drew 0-0 with Dundee
United.
Steven Gerrard's side, who beat St Mirren 3-0 on
Saturday, have a 20-point lead with six games
remaining.
It is former Liverpool and England captain Gerrard's
first trophy as a manager in his third season at
Ibrox, and ends Celtic's bid for an unprecedented
10th successive crown.
It is the earliest Scottish title win in chronological
terms.
Rangers have dropped just eight points in an
unbeaten league campaign so far, with their victory
on Saturday their 28th win in 32 matches.
They have scored 77 goals and conceded just nine -
only two of which have been at Ibrox.
The Glasgow club were in the bottom tier of
Scottish football as recently as 2012 after their
financial collapse, and returned to the top flight five
years ago.
Rangers' first game as champions will be the third
Old Firm game of the campaign at Celtic Park on
March 21.
