Simon Jordan expressed disappointment in the lack of competitiveness in the Scottish Premiership after Celtic secured the title over Rangers in another two-team race.
Celtic’s dominant 5-0 victory against Kilmarnock on May 15 sealed their title victory, leaving Rangers unable to catch up with just one game left to play and a six-point gap between them.
The failure of Rangers to win the Old Firm derby on May 11 set Celtic up for success, needing just one point from their final matches to clinch the title, which they successfully did.
Jordan criticized the lack of competition in the league, highlighting Celtic’s 12 out of the last 13 league titles as evidence of the lack of variety in winners. He raised questions about the quality of domestic football in Scotland and the absence of emerging talent in the league.
Rangers ended Celtic’s dominance in the 2020/21 season by clinching the title with 102 points and finishing 25 points ahead of their rivals. Despite coming close in recent seasons, Rangers have struggled in the Old Firm derby, winning just one of their last 11 league encounters.
To challenge Celtic’s supremacy, Rangers must improve their performance in the derby and aim to close the gap with their rivals in the upcoming seasons. Under Philippe Clement’s leadership, Rangers must focus on building a team that can compete with Celtic and strive for more competitive performances in the future.
