Chris Sutton was quick to respond as Celtic sealed their 55th league title this afternoon, taking a swipe at Rangers in the process. The former Hoops striker, never shy in showing his allegiances, took to X (formerly Twitter) shortly after the full-time whistle blew on Celtic’s 5-0 dismantling of Dundee United to send a simple but cutting message.
In a clear dig aimed at Rangers, who year after year talk up their chances at the start of the season, only to fall away when the real pressure kicks in. Celtic fans will know exactly what Sutton is referencing, and the reaction online will likely be one of pure joy as title celebrations have kicked into full swing across Glasgow and beyond.
Are they still coming?

It’s been a season where Celtic have delivered when it matters most. After defeating Rangers in the Premier Sports Cup final back in December, Brendan Rodgers’ side pushed on and made sure to get the league title over the line with four games to spare. Today’s 5-0 win at Tannadice was nothing short of dominant, a true champions’ performance with every player stepping up when it counted.
Now, with the league title secured and the League Cup already in the trophy cabinet, attention quickly turns to Hampden next month. Celtic have the chance to complete a stunning treble when they face Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup final. It would be a fitting end to a campaign where the Bhoys have shown resilience, quality, and a winning mentality that others could only dream of matching.
Chris Sutton’s dig will no doubt have stung those across the city, but for Celtic fans, it’s all part of the fun. While others talked, Celtic simply delivered. A 55th title is now in the history books, and with another final still to play, the chance to add yet another piece of silverware to this incredible season is agonisingly close.
I’m sure every fan from Govan will be cheering on the Champions on Cup Final day because they surely want to keep the trophy in the west! 🤷🏼♂️
