emailed: “Barry Ferguson said in his column Rangers fans need to give Gerrard time to sort things out. I agree – about 20 years should do it.”

Celtic fans seem confident ahead of the new season with a 4-1 friendly rout of Standard Liege on Saturday.

said: “Celtic have produced superb pre-season performanc­es across the team but Odsonne Edouard, Moussa Dembele, Callum McGregor and James Forrest look in sensationa­l form and can only get better. With Rangers looking doomed, the treble Treble is in the bag.”
