It has been boom and bust for the loyal bears.
This morning it is burst once again as a demoralised squad of players led by a deluded rookie manager are tasked with stopping Celtic’s fifth treble since Mark Warburton led the Tribute Act into the top flight in 2016.
Ahead of the grans return a Scottish Cup Final was lost to Hibs which turned out to be a decent marker for the years that were lying ahead.
Since that eagerly awaited promotion the loyal fans have witnessed the greatest period of domination that the Scottish game has ever known- from across the city.
All but four of the domestic trophies have gone to Celtic with St Johnstone winning the same number of trophies as the Tribute Act.
It was really Stein in 65.
Rangers won only 4 titles until Murray took over and started his nonsense along with Celtic going backwards.
Then 2000 O’Neill kicked it off again & Rangers couldn’t cope.

Micky Beale and Fashio Sakala whipped the Gullible & Deluded into a frenzy last week- now they must face the music knowing that more than soothing soundbites are required to sooth the pain of more Celtic successes.
Nearly 60 years on the march.
From Bill Struth to Jock Stein (1920-1965) Celtic won only 5 titles.
League placings 1945-65 below.Celtic were 3 titles away from Rangers (35 to 38) when Murray took over in 1988, after Celtic closing the Struth gap.
Celtic within 3 present day. https://t.co/2HckvBrhiA pic.twitter.com/OI4YxP5I8k— Lint (@Zeshankenzo) February 27, 2023
St Johnstone fans will be quick to point out they have won more trophies than Sevco, not the same number. Scottish Cup in 2014 and 2021 plus League Cup in 2021…. 3 trophies to Sevco’s 2….
