Stevie Gerrard makes an admission Celtic fans will hate

Rangers manager Steven Gerrard has confirmed he has no interest in Celtic or what they are doing, and his sole focus is on Rangers.

In a shift from ex-managers who seemed to enjoy talking about Celtic and getting into spats with their various managers, Gerrard has revealed he isn’t looking at what is going on at Parkhead, isn’t interested in what’s going on at Parkhead, and is only focused on what’s happening at Ibrox.

Speaking at his pre-Killie presser, Gerrard was asked if he was interested in events in the east. His response:

“The situation for us is to worry about us, and what’s going on at Rangers, our focus can’t be looking over the garden fence; we need to make sure that we’re right, that we keep moving forward and building towards what we want. We’re trying to build something here that can compete domestically and do ourselves justice in Europe so whatever happens at other clubs is their business. It’s not tempting for me (to look over the fence). For me my priority is my team.”

So that’s that. For all the times Celtic’s manager has talked about Rangers, he isn’t going to be afforded the same courtesy of attention.

In short, they’re just not that important.
