Well, whilst we’re basking in the glory of another title win, Rangers are doing their best to make it even sweeter.
After ‘threatening’ to make things a title race this season – yeah, okay – the Gers have imploded and have now got rid of Graeme Murty.
A man who simply stepped in to try and help the club, he’s been utterly thrown under a bus, and plenty of our fans are not impressed with the Gers on Twitter:

Terrible the way he's been treated. Seems like a nice guy.

So when he was winning they were calling for make sure he gets the job but now was thrown under a bus horrible club

As a Celtic fan he really was thrown to the wolves, the Rangers Board should be ashamed how they have treated Murty.
All the best to him.— Peter (@18peter88) May 1, 2018
Aye cos it was aw his fault. The caretaker. The guy doin them a favour cos the manager got sacked and the guy they wanted to replace him said No. Murtys to blame 🙄 🙈

The Verdict
I don’t really care about Rangers and what they get up to because, in recent years, it’s more than made us chuckle and strengthened our position.
I do feel sorry a bit for Murty, though, because he was just simply trying to help out in a role that he wasn’t really ready for.
Hopefully his next employers treat him far better than that mob, whilst I feel bad for whoever comes in as well.
