Steven Gerrard has won Premiership manager of the month – not a bad achievement considering he lost a major cup final.
But try telling that to Ladbrokes who have astonishingly glossed over Celtic’s tenth trophy in a row to paint a rosy picture of The Rangers in December.
We understand this Premiership manager of the month winner doesn’t take into account cup wins and losses and we have no gripe with the prize being given out but when it came to Ladbrokes promoting Steven Gerrard – they claimed he was undefeated in December.
Praising the manager for his exploits is one thing but not making note of a cup final defeat in-between tells you the angle they were going for.
Rangers in December:
👤 Six games
✅ Five wins
❌ No defeats💥 THAT win at Celtic Park.

Celtic fans were happy to make sure they remembered that it wasn’t an unbeaten December for the Ibrox club.

It’s still all very much to play for in the SPFL but only one team can still do a treble.
