BOYLESPORTS and Paddy Power have paid out on Celtic winning the SPL after Rangers went into administration on Tuesday.

The Gers, who are four points behind their arch-rivals, will be deducted ten points as a result of the move.

The situation arose as a result of a tax tribunal which could cost the club £49m.

Rangers are still be nine points ahead of third-placed Motherwell having played a game more.

Boss Ally McCoist is 7-2 with Paddy Power to be the next SPL boss to leave his post, behind Dunfermline’s Jim McIntyre at 6-4 and Hearts’ Paulo Sergio at 3-1.
