On this day in 2004, Celtic took another step on the road to completing a green and white wash over the blue half of Glasgow.
Having defeated Rangers 1-0 at Ibrox in October 2003, the Celts stuck three past their title rivals on home soil in January 2004. Goals came from Petrov, Varga and Thompson.
That victory marked two in two for the season’s Glasgow derbies. A 1-0 victory over Rangers in the Scottish Cup would follow that March, along with a 2-1 League win at Ibrox in the same month. Then in May 2004, the whitewash was complete in dramatic fashion as Chris Sutton famously chipped Stefan Klos in the game’s dying embers.
Celtic were quite simply in a league of their own.
