Celtic´s Mc Donald goal seems to define 43rd Scottish league against Rangers

On Saturday, Rangers host Celtic in the 290th league installment of the all-Glasgow clash ‘The Old Firm’. The two sides are first (Celtic) and second (Rangers) in the Scottish table and will likely decide the title as they have divided it amongst themselves in every season since 1985/1986.

Rangers have won a world record 51 domestic league top flight titles.
Among European clubs, Celtic are ranked in the top three, having won 42 Scottish league crowns. Mc Donald goal seemed to define another Championship...

The last side to snatch the Scottish title other than Rangers or Celtic were Aberdeen in 1984/1985.

Taking nothing away from Celtic or Rangers, but the Scottish league is a very bad standard of Football. So no wonder Rangers and Celtic have won so many titles.
