Rangers flip narrative as McInnes makes mark

THIS ONE MADE ME PUT MY PHONE DOWN BECAUSE RANGERS ARE SUDDENLY SITTING JUST TWO POINTS BEHIND CELTIC AFTER BEATING THEM TWICE IN A SINGLE WEEK, WINNING ONE NIL AT CELTIC PARK RIGHT AFTER SMASHING THEM THREE NIL AT IBROX IN THE LEAGUE CUP, WHICH IS WILD BECAUSE JUST A MONTH AGO DEREK MCINNES LOOKED COMPLETELY FINISHED AFTER HUMILIATING EUROPEAN KNOCKOUTS BY JAGIELLONIA BIALYSTOK AND JABLONEC WHERE THE TEAM COULD NOT DEFEND TO SAVE THEIR LIVES, AND THE THING IS MCINNES WAS EMBARRASSED BUT NOW HE HAS CLINCHED SIX WINS IN A ROW AND CONCEDED ONLY ONE GOAL IN THAT WHOLE RUN, WITH OLWETHU MAKHANYA WINNING MAN OF THE MATCH AND EMMANUEL FERNANDEZ RACKING UP ELEVEN CLEARANCES TO HOLD CELTIC TO A SINGLE SHOT ON TARGET. ANYWAY DID YOU SEE WHO JUST WALKED IN?

THIS IS GOING TO SOUND FAKE BUT EVERYBODY WAS WRITING OFF DEREK MCINNES LIKE HE COULD NOT ORGANISE A DEFENSE, WHICH IS WILD BECAUSE HIS SIDE JUST WENT TO CELTIC PARK AND RESTRICTED CELTIC TO A SINGLE SHOT ON TARGET THE ENTIRE MATCH! AND THE THING IS PEOPLE FORGOT MCINNES HAS MANAGED OVER EIGHT HUNDRED GAMES AND HIS HEARTS TEAM CONCEDED THE FEWEST IN THE LEAGUE LAST SEASON, SO NOW RANGERS HAVE REELED OFF SIX STRAIGHT WINS AND CONCEDED JUST ONCE IN THAT RUN, WITH DAN NEIL AND NICO RASKIN MAKING FIFTY MORE PASSES THAN CELTIC IN THE OPPOSITION HALF TO PIN THEM RIGHT BACK, WHICH MEANS THE TITLE GAP IS SUDDENLY DOWN TO TWO DAMN POINTS AFTER BACK-TO-BACK DERBY WINS. ANYWAY I NEED A CIGARETTE AND I DO NOT SMOKE.

Rangers have won six consecutive games, including back-to-back Old Firm victories over Celtic, cutting the gap at the top of the Scottish Premiership to two points.
