Rangers’ title challenge ended at 9:45pm on Saturday after Celtic battered Hearts after the Ibrox club drew with Dundee United.
The draw left Rangers fans calling for Philippe Clement’s head as the Celtic supporters sat back and smiled.
With Rangers pretty much out of the title race now, Jack Butland has shared what he thinks of the Ibrox club’s chances of catching Celtic this season and it’s fair to say it raised the Parkhead support’s eyebrows.
Butland said, “People might not think that – but you won’t catch us not thinking that. The reality, we know what it looks like. We know we need to perform better if we want to be in a title race.
By no means are we out of it but we’ve given ourselves way too much to do at this point. We need to start closing that gap and performances like that aren’t going to help us.”
Celtic fans tell Jack Butland where to stick his Rangers title comments
I mean even the most hardened Rangers fan on Follow Follow wouldn’t believe that nonsense because even if Rangers managed to turn their form around, Celtic are not losing four games this season.
And Butland’s comments were roundly ripped apart by the Celtic supporters.

Ah good to see he’s as delusional as everyone else
Seriously think someone needs to check the carbon monoxide readings in Ibrox because it can’t be a coincidence that they are all having neurological events at the same time

I get it, Butland has to come out and say something positive but at least be realistic.
But then again, we are talking about a fan base that still believes Rangers are the same club.
