Rangers took the spoils in the Old Firm clash at Ibrox on Saturday, putting themselves in prime position to take the Scottish Premier League title. The Ibrox side has a shot at a quadruple this season, after not winning a single trophy in the previous campaign.
For Celtic boss Gordon Strachan, it was speculated to be win-or-lose-your-job if Hoops failed to take three points from Glasgow rivals. A win would have drawn Celtic even with Rangers. Instead, Rangers are six points clear at the top of the table.
