The strange aspect of the 2021-22 season in respect of Celtic and Rangers was that age-old foes could paint a picture of contentment. Celebrations at home for one, praise across the continent for the other.
Rangers supporters had cause for frustration as they left the Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán in May after the Europa League final defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt, knowing their team may never have a better chance to land a European trophy, but there was pride in an outstanding run. Back in Glasgow, Celtic celebrated a 10th title win in 11 attempts. This has been an era of domestic dominance by Glasgow’s green and white, a point not typically recognised, including by their own support.
