Gerrard guides Rangers to Scottish Premiership title
Print Edition
Rangers鈥 first Scottish Premiership title for 10 years was confirmed yesterday after Celtic鈥檚 0-0 draw at Dundee United left it 20 points behind its Glasgow rival with six games left to play.
Steven Gerrard鈥檚 men have stormed to the title without losing a game to end Celtic鈥檚 stranglehold of a record-equalling nine consecutive Scottish league titles. Rangers were not even in the top-flight for four of those seasons after the club was demoted to the fourth tier after being liquidated in 2012 due to financial troubles. 鈥淭his club has been to hell and back over the past 10 years,鈥 said Gerrard after Saturday鈥檚 3-0 win over St Mirren put Rangers on the brink of a first major trophy since 2011. 鈥淚鈥檝e only been part of it for three, but I can certainly relate and I鈥檝e got that feeling and that affection with the fans and I know what they have been through.鈥 The former England and Liverpool captain never won a league title during his legendary 17-year career at Anfield. However, Gerrard has transformed Rangers鈥 fortunes both domestically and in Europe since taking his first senior managerial role in 2018. The newly crowned Scottish champions have reached the last 16 of the Europa League for the second consecutive season.
