VISIT THE RANGERS MATCH HUB MORE FOOTBALL INSIDER STORIES Rangers fans mock Luke McCowan’s title race commentsFor both Rangers and Celtic, their campaign has been a disappointment.Both clubs have vastly underperformed in Europe as well as domestically, which has led to a series of dismissals in the dugout.Therefore, it is a minor miracle that they are still in the Scottish Premiership title race, with Rangers only four points behind, while Celtic are six points behind, and they also possess a game in hand.However, their league campaigns have also been a major wake-up call, as many clubs in the division have proven they are capable of challenging the Old Firm sides on the pitch.Celtic have already lost seven matches in the division this season, while Rangers have drawn an eye-watering 11 games.Therefore, when McCowan came out after the Stuttgart match and said, “We know if we’re at it – no team in that league touches us”, the Ibrox fanbase were quick to laugh at the Hoops star.Seven defeats but no team can touch them 😂😂😂😂— David W (@TheGersUK26) February 26, 2026 That’s Rohls’ teamtalk sorted…— Rossco (@rosscurrie971) February 26, 2026 2 points from a possible 15 vs Hearts and Rangers this season🤣🤣🤣— BadgerBlue🌐 (@BadgerB33) February 26, 2026 Anyone remember that time they lost in the league 5 days ago?— AndrewReadyPaint (@aquickone17) February 27, 2026 Literally lost their last game 🤷‍♂️— Controversial Bear (@Shaun09902039) February 27, 2026 pic.twitter.com/haYSH8kvEv— 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 𝗕𝗘𝗔𝗥 🇬🇧 (@RangersBear55) February 26, 2026 208 bookmarks already.
