CHRIS SUTTON has urged Rangers to come out and congratulate Celtic on winning nine in a row.
The Hoops landed the Scottish Premiership crown yesterday after league directors called time on the current campaign due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
And Parkhead legend Sutton has told Glasgow rivals Rangers to do the "sporting thing" by offering a word of congratulations to Neil Lennon's team.
He wrote on Twitter: "It would be nice to hear from a Rangers representative, player, or the supporters and for them to do the sporting thing and congratulate Celtic on being the best team once again and the 9 in a row..."
Celtic ultimately ran away with the Scottish Premiership crown as they topped the table by 13 points.
And Lennon and his players still have the opportunity to land yet another treble with their Scottish Cup semi-final still to be rearranged.
Sutton added yesterday: "Well done to Neil Lennon and Celtic on 9 in a row.
"Thoroughly deserved. Serial Winners.
"Not even close once again..."
Newly-crowned Scottish champions Celtic exceeded the goal tallies of four of their previous eight-title winning campaigns despite only playing 30 of their scheduled 38 matches this season.
They had also surpassed their final points total for the second campaign in their current nine-in-a-row run.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
