There was no shortage of options to feed my football fix on Wednesday night but the TV was only set for one game - Celtic at Kilmarnock. No matter how painful, how torturous I knew it was going to be.
And believe me the last day has been excruciating for everyone connected to Rangers after Celtic secured the title. But you know what? I made myself sit through it all. I took in every minute of the game AND the celebrations.
People dub it the Lovenkrands Final because Peter scored the last minute winner… but I prefer to remember it for my exquisite free kick! Seriously though, what an occasion, what a game and what a win. Both teams had fantastic players but our Rangers side.. wow. The characters in that team were huge. What a time to answer the critics. To shut people up. Listen, Wednesday night was the best I’ve seen Celtic. The way they moved the ball, how quickly they got about the pitch and the way they took their chances.
I suffered the same at points in my career. I lost leagues that I felt should have been won. And there’s no doubt this is one that Rangers will feel slipped away from them. It’ll nag for a long time. Maybe he will come up with something different at Hampden, a change in personnel or formation that will see them get off on the front foot. But first things first, Rangers need to make sure they finish the league season strongly at Tynecastle to carry momentum into the final.
