Rangers training match title was a fluke and Celtic have shown it's not even a debate – Hotline

The post-mortem of Rangers’ title defence collapse is still dominating the debate ahead of their Europa League return.

It's not so long ago that the fans were celebration a historic Premiership victory, but despite a clash with Braga around the corner the Premiership title is the only thing on callers’ minds.

Gordon Ashley, Ayr, said: "The evidence that last season was a training match title fluke is so overwhelming that it’s not even a debate any more.

"Celtic win every trophy for four years, then when they are deprived of the Messi, Ronaldo and FIFA proclaimed best fans in the word, and lose every trophy only to resume normal service when we return. Argument over."

Scott Cassidy, Bridgeton, remains convinced that the title wasn't decided on Sunday but all the way back in January.

He said: "After the dust has settled from the weekend. I still believe that Celtic making the SPFL shut down for winter early has cost Rangers the league. Not only has it cost us the league but also a manager as Steven Gerrard would have stayed but knew that Celtic run the league.

John Bruce emailed: "Supporting Rangers has been a roller coaster this season.

"From the highs of the European games to the lows of games against Motherwell, Dundee United and Celtic. Thursday's game against Braga in the Europa League is an ideal opportunity to lift the fans once more.

'The game will be more difficult without talisman Alfredo Morelos, who is also one of the tournament's top scorers. So the players will have to show more appetite than they did on Sunday and prove that they can win games, important games, without Alfredo - right until the end of the season."
