“I think we have made genuine progress and with a bit of investment in key areas and a bit more consistency I think we can go far.”

King certainly thinks Rangers can be the dominant force nextseasonandthereforestop Celtic from hitting nine titles in a row for a second time.

“You guys love these headlines,” said Murray. “At the end of the day, it comes down to what happens on the pitch. You would imagine Celtic are going to win the league this year so by definition they have been the best team in the country this season.

“But that’s not to say that can’t change.”
