Champions Celtic, the numbers that matter and stay-away from Celtic Park today message

CELTIC today became the first Scottish club, dead or alive, to win 9-in-a-Row for the second time, a truly remarkable achievement for our football club. We are going to celebrate today but we cannot do that at Celtic Park so please do NOT head over there, it will only cause problems for the club.

Celtic have just posted this message on the official site, please read it and take heed.

Champions again. This is our 9.

Today Celtic have been declared Scottish Premiership Champions for the 9th season in a row.
We have dominated the Premiership, winning 26 games out of 30.

We have scored 89 goals, conceded just 19, and established a commanding 13-point lead at the top of the table. We are champions for a reason.

We dedicate this victory to you. To all our supporters. To the key workers who are saving lives, cleaning hospitals, stacking shelves and shielding loved ones at home.

Our 9, is your 9.

We want Celtic fans all over the world to celebrate in style, but, of course, safety is the number one priority for all, and for now this means celebrating in our homes. We all must stay safe and stay home. Please DO NOT come to Celtic Park.

We dedicate this league title to you. We dedicate 9 in a row to you.

This is our way. This is our 9. This is our time.

When it is safe to do so, the Celtic support will gather in our tens of thousands to celebrate this remarkable achievement. And don’t forget that we still have Scottish Cup business to attend to, our semi-final against Aberdeen will be played later this year or perhaps even early in 2021 and the Scottish FA are determined to have supporters there for both semi-finals and the final, where hopefully the quadruple treble will be achieved.

What a remarkable time it is to be a Celtic supporter!
