Chris Sutton has fired a cheeky dig at Rangers following the confirmation of their Scottish Premiership crown.
The Celtic hero took to Twitter and wrote: "Well done to Steven Gerrard and Rangers on a brilliant season and one in a row."
Gerrard's team ended Celtic's quest for 10-in-a-row after they won this year's Premiership title.
Rangers cruised past St Mirren 3-0 at Ibrox on Saturday, which brought the title in sight.
And Celtic’s failure to find a winner at Tannadice gifted Rangers the silverware.
Former Liverpool and England midfielder Gerrard took the Rangers helm in 2018, and has now completed a remarkable end to Celtic’s prior dominance.
Rangers fans flouted lockdown rules at Ibrox to celebrate the 55th crown for the second day running.
“After a superb campaign so far, Gers’ win over St Mirren yesterday put them on the verge of glory, with results elsewhere today meaning they can mathematically no longer be caught, with incredibly six matches still to play,” read a Rangers statement.
“It’s title number 55 for the club – the most of any football club in the world – and the first in 10 years following one of the most arduous decades in the club’s history.”
