A peculiar narrative has emerged this week regarding the perceived gap between Celtic and Rangers following the League Cup final.
The suggestion seems to be that because Rangers forced the match to penalties, the difference between the two clubs may not be as significant as initially believed.
It’s important to remember that Celtic remain unbeaten in the league, hold an 11-point lead over Rangers, have won the first two Glasgow Derbies of the season, and boast a deep, talent-filled squad.
This dominance was clearly not lost on Michael Stewart, who highlighted the stark ‘reality’ of Rangers’ current financial situation compared to Celtic’s.
Stewart bluntly stated that Rangers “are nowhere near the club Celtic are,” during a discussion about what Rangers need to do to close the gap following the League Cup final—a remark sure to ruffle feathers among the Ibrox faithful.
