Stressed out Mark Warburton has cut Celtic’s lead at the top of the Premiership down to 10 points!

Wednesday’s results saw Brendan Rodgers side go 25 points clear of Sevco after 23 matches increasing the prospect of the March 12 clash between the two clubs being a title clincher or even title party.

Warbo claims to be a former city trader but seems to struggle with figures when he attempts to justify his failure to deliver on #goingfor55.

At the state-of-the-art Murray Park training complex on Thursday the current Ibrox boss was trying to explain away his side’s 4-1 hammering from Hearts the previous night.

Under pressure to justify how Celtic can be so far in front he came up with an answer from left field.

According to a Q and A in the Evening Times Warbo said: “So, take away their record run and they win four games less, how many points are they ahead? 13. If we won one of those games, now it is ten. They are on a record run, all credit to them. They are breaking a record going back how many years?”

Hopefully Warbo won’t cast his mind back to the 66/67 season and inflict a pair of defeats on Jock Stein’s side from Nantes which would result in May’s 50th anniversary celebrations being cancelled.
