The great thing about a Rangers defeat is that it brings tears of pain to the Ibrox support and tears of joy to the Celtic fans.
All the posturing, grandstanding and bravado when they went top of the league is gone now. And as the reality sinks in that the team that they have is simply not good enough, the excuses and lies are all coming out now from them.
One of the best lies is, of course, that Celtic were 11 points clear at the top of the table. As we all know, that’s simply not true. Games in hand have dedicated that ‘clear’ is not the case and that is the argument this Rangers fan went with.

Michael Beale in charge to start the season.
Injuries to Ridvan, Balogun, Sterling, Raskin, Lawrence, Cantwell, Cortes, Danilo, Sima, Matondo.
But aye… 15 clear and we’ve had no c–t injured 👍🏻 https://t.co/ATWznLFElW
It looks like the tweet has been deleted so here is a screenshot for you to enjoy:
Hold on, wasn’t Michael Beale the Messiah who was coming to take over Scottish football? Wasn’t he the brains behind Steven Gerrard’s operation?
In the end, he duped the Rangers fans despite numerous warnings from the Celtic fans that Beale was nothing but a big-mouthed charlatan.
These claims were expertly taken apart by the Celtic fans as they delivered a bare-faced truth that will be uncomfortable reading for the Ibrox support.
Be prepared for some strong (but funny) language:
This lead gets bigger every time yous w–ks speak about it. 😂

Buckled at how this number keeps arbitrarily increasing to exaggerate the “job” Clement has done. It was 5 points at best

For all that has happened, it's worth remembering that Beale was hailed as a genius by every single one of you. BealeBall was all the rage.

A guy with 9 games under his belt as a manager got the job at Rangers 🤣
The world's most gullible fanbase.
