It was a blow, but we’re over it. Celtic just continue to concentrate on what we do best, and that’s winning trophies…

There seems to be a belief amongst theRangers supporters that failure to clinch 10 titles in a row back in 2021 is something of a demon that Celtic supporters can’t shake off.

According to some it has ‘ruined’ us, and we will never ever get over it. That it somehow occupies our everyday thoughts. It’s them that goes on about title 55 when they never once talked about 54, or 53, or 52 etc

Failure to do 10IAR was a big disappointment at the time, yes, it would have been great to yet again make some history by beating one of our very own illustrious records, but unfortunately it wasn’t to be. Like Rangers we equalled the record first set by Jock Stein’s side in the mid 1970s.

We just weren’t good enough that particular season, while theRangers clicked and produced some good form, aided by the absence of their supporters and fully deserved their first ever title win.

Celtic couldn’t have any complaints, and as disappointing as it was to blow the chance of making history, we put it firmly behind us, dusted ourselves down and went from strength to strength, winning the next three titles.  Their title win gave us Ange Postecoglou and led onto Brendan Rodgers coming back. We’ve won two Scottish Cups, two League Cups and three league titles since so no-one at Celtic even bothers about what happened in the Covid season.

It’s a simple as this,  we have won seven out of the nine available trophies as we added to our ever growing honours list to further establish ourselves as the best side in the country.

Was failing to do ten in a row disappointing? Yes, but does it eat away at us?  No it doesn’t, we just get on with doing what we do best, and that’s winning honours. We leave the what ifs and regrets to the sides who aren’t as successful as Celtic.

Just an Ordinary Bhoy
