RANGERS WIN WORLD RECORD 53rd LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP

Sunday, April 25th, 2010

by Marc Roseblade

Glasgow Rangers won the SPL title today with a 1 nil victory over Edinburgh side Hibernian (Hibs) with 3 games remaining in the league.

This is a world record 53rd league title for Rangers and makes it 9 in total for manager Walter Smith.

Walter Smith makes history with Rangers

Amazingly, Rangers have still to secure Smith as manager for next season after an uncertain financial year for the Glasgow side. Their owner David Murray put the club up for sale and Smith was put on a rolling contract as any new owners may want to bring in their own people. With Rangers now winning the title again, as well as the CIS League Cup this season, anyone in Scotland would tell you that Smith is the best manager in the country and any new owner of Rangers would be crazy not to secure his services.

The league title this season also secures automatic Champions League entry for Rangers next season, unless Lyon win the Champions League this season. If Lyon win, they drop Scotland’s European coefficient, in which case Rangers would need to play in the 3rd qualifying round.

Good news for USA fans as Maurice Edu played a part in today’s victory. He’ll bring home some more silverware and another medal in time for SA.
