Brendan Rodgers claims Celtic should show “class” and give Rangers a guard of honour – and then use it as motivation to regain their title.
Rangers are due to visit Celtic Park on Sunday in their first match since being crowned Scottish Premiership champions.
The traditional salute to the champions was not carried out in 2019 when
Celtic visited Ibrox in their first game since securing their eighth consecutive title. Gers boss Steven Gerrard revealed the club had taken the decision out of his hands.
Rodgers, whose Celtic side beat Rangers 5-0 a year earlier to clinch the championship, referenced an occasion when Sir Alex Ferguson’s Manchester United players gave Jose Mourinho’s Chelsea a guard of honour in 2005.

United have won the Premier League a ridiculous 13 times but, according to GQ, six of their teams have been among the seven worst in history.
The worst side to have won the league since 1992 is United s 1996/97 winning side, which only won 21 games.
Just ahead of them are the Arsenal side that won it all in 1997, while United s treble winners are ranked third worst.
While they conquered on all fronts, United s historic 1998/1999 are ranked so low given they only won the league by a point.
Elsewhere, Leicester s Incredibles are ranked 21st, two spots worse off than Kenny Dalglish s Blackburn team.

John Terry has questioned whether any team will ever beat Chelsea’s 86-game unbeaten run at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League, after Liverpool’s landmark defeat.
Indeed,
the Reds had won or drawn 68 games on home turf since Crystal Palace tasted victory on Merseyside.
However, amid Liverpool’s current poor form, Burnley added another stinging point by claiming a landmark victory.
Jurgen Klopp‘s men had not scored in three matches going into the game. As such, Ashley Barnes’ penalty proved enough for a historic 1-0 win for Sean Dyche’s men.
