Scottish Premier League

Blue is the colour as Rangers' joy mixes with sheer disbelief


Hibernian 0-1 Rangers

Graham Clark at Easter Road
Monday May 23, 2005
The Guardian


This was a title race that eclipsed even the one staged two years ago when Rangers became champions by just one goal. Then there was always the possibility of Ibrox success on the final day: yesterday it proved the most improbable of triumphs.
For 88 minutes the helicopter carrying the league trophy had its flight plan laid out to reach deepest Lanarkshire with Celtic leading at Motherwell, but then the away fans' section at Easter Road that had been goaded into silence by the Hibs supporters after Chris Sutton's goal at Fir Park, erupted at the news of Scott McDonald's equaliser.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rangers' supporters sang and danced and even their players briefly began a jig of joy before remembering that there were two minutes left in both matches and realising that, on the previous evidence of a rollercoaster season, anything could still happen.
The match in Edinburgh finally petered out with Hibs content to be beaten by only a single goal. Coupled with Aberdeen's failure to score enough goals in their win over Hearts, the result was enough to secure a Uefa Cup place next season.

As the final whistle sounded Marvin Andrews, a born-again Christian who has played on for the past few weeks despite a cruciate knee injury, sank to his knees and offered up a prayer. It was an image that somehow encapsulated this most dramatic of days.

The match-winner Nacho Novo collapsed in the goalmouth, Alex McLeish and his backroom staff hugged each other, Shota Arveladze - in his last match for the club -did the same silly dance he performed two years ago, and even injured players such as Stefan Klos and Gavin Rae forgot their problems and raced on to the field. Throughout the stadium, though, there was as much a sense of disbelief as joy.

The Premier league's helicopter, meanwhile, had to be rapidly rerouted to the capital, so it was some time before the trophy was delivered and presented. In the interim Hibs did their own lap of honour.

Rangers' fans continued to savour their success and one anorak pointed out that it is 90 years since Celtic have won a league title in a year that ends in a five; the most bizarre statistics are uncovered in such heady moments. It was also recalled that Rangers had stood five points behind Celtic with only four games remaining after losing 2-1 at home to their oldest rivals on April 24.

Finally the Ibrox players reappeared and again the blue end of Easter Road became a ecstatic seething mass. Fans kissed and hugged, and their heroes gratefully accepted the scarves, hats and other paraphenalia that rained down upon them. The actual presen tation was somewhat lost in the mayhem as players were given their medals and eventually the trophy, when, perhaps for the first time, the entire Rangers squad suddenly understoodwhat had been achieved on a day that had begun as a mission improbable.

They had travelled to Edinburgh knowing that even a win might not be sufficient, although they were professional enough to achieve that first objective through Novo's 59th-minute strike at the end of the one genuinely decent move of the match.

Otherwise it was a scrappy affair in which the Hibs' quartet of Scott Brown, Ian Murray, Derek Riordan and Guillaume Beuzelin joined Novo in the referee's notebook.

The Spaniard's 25th goal of the season sparked celebrations of a sort but it was the overhead kick 30 miles away by an Australian two minutes from the end of the league season that really got the party going. The question now is when will it stop?

It was a final triumph born of adversity, success when failure seemed inevitable and a huge feather in the cap for McLeish, who on occasions this season has been under huge pressure.

He had said beforehand that whatever happened on the final day he was pleased with the progress of a team that last season had lost out on the championship by 17 points.

Pleased would not begin to describe his emotions this morning.
