Celtic brushed aside the powder-puff resistance of Sevco to win 2-0 at Ibrox today.
Second half goals from Tom Rogic and Leigh Griffiths settled the issue as Celtic went eight points clear of the tribute act.
It was the third time in 21 matches that Pedro Caixinha has lost to the hoops with the fifth best coach in Qatar now facing a fight for survival despite having a three year contract.
Celtic looked like they were ready to sweep their opponents aside in the first 15 minutes but failed to take their chances encouraging Sevco back into the match.
Right on half time there was a flashpoint when Caixinha confronted Scott Brown in a clear bid to ingratiate himself to the home fans.
Five minutes into the second half a loose ball in the box went through the legs of Young McCrorie with Rogic smashing the ball into the net from 12 yards out.
