Kris Boyd Congratulates Celtic on Title Win
Former Rangers striker Kris Boyd has offered his congratulations to Celtic on their 55th league title win. The Hoops thrashed Dundee United to all but secure the championship, and Boyd believes Celtic’s consistency under Brendan Rodgers has been unmatched.
Boyd’s Reaction
Boyd told Sky Sports News, “First of all, congratulations to Celtic. Once again, they have been the outstanding team in Scotland. That consistency that Brendan Rodgers seems to find from his team is unmatched.” Boyd also acknowledged the significant gap between Celtic and Rangers in terms of trophy count, stating, “From a Rangers point of view, there is obviously going to be a takeover happening any time soon, but the harsh reality is that Rangers are falling further and further behind Celtic.”
Trophy Count
Celtic have now surpassed Rangers in terms of trophies won, with 120 titles compared to Rangers’ 118. The gap could widen further if Celtic win the Scottish Cup final against Aberdeen. Boyd noted that Celtic have won more trophies since Rangers’ return to the top-flight than they did during their time away.
Conclusion
Boyd’s comments highlight the significant difference between Celtic and Rangers in recent years. While Rangers are expecting a takeover, Boyd believes the club is falling further behind Celtic in terms of trophies won. As Celtic celebrate their title win, Rangers will look to regroup and start their season afresh.
