Bang average Rangers are in meltdown as giddy Celtic fans hit Hotline to declare the banter years are back

Celtic supporters have been in party mode since the final whistle blew on Saturday’s Old Firm win.

But the cork burst off the champagne for real at Kilmarnock on Wednesday after a third straight Premiership title was sewn up with a 5-0 win and a performance bubbling over with quality. As expected, the joy, glory and downright bragging from the Hoops fans was flowing on the Hotline. First up is Lance Little, Erskine, who laid it on thick when he said: “Once again Rangers fans believed their team was good and they had a messiah as a manager. Then the light came back on and really hit home. They saw that they have a bang average team and boss. Once again Celtic sit top of the league. Rangers are in meltdown whilst we are having fun. The banter years continue.”

Kenny Wilson, Moffat, said: “Another title in the bag with a five-star display. The football at times was outstanding and every player was in top form but Matt O’Riley was different class yet again and Adam Idah was also tremendous.

"In top form heading into the cup final and if they play like that the double will be ours. As for all the doubters about Brendan Rodgers he has delivered yet again.”

Charles Maxwell emailed: “Well done Celtic. The best performance of the season by far both on and off the park. The team played great football, scored great goals and kept a clean sheet. The fans sang their hearts out for 90 minutes, best I’ve heard, and didn't disgrace themselves by throwing missiles. Now that's how to represent the club.”

David Bryce, Troon, said: “Celtic were absolutely sublime at Rugby Park. My only question is why it took us that long to perform to such a level. However we are champions again and congratulations to Brendan and the Bhoys! Magnificent
