✨ AI Insight

Celtic and Rangers are separated by a single title, on 56 and 55, and together the Glasgow pair have won 111 of Scotland's championships. This is the most extreme two-club dominance anywhere in world football, exceeding even Real Madrid and Barcelona in Spain. The scale of the gap to third place is startling: Aberdeen, Heart of Midlothian and Hibernian are tied on just four each, meaning the Old Firm have won roughly fourteen times more titles than the next best club. The tail is a list of near-misses and history, with Dumbarton on two and Motherwell, Kilmarnock, Dundee, Dundee United and Third Lanark on one apiece, the last of these a club that folded in 1967.
