RANGERS fans have turned out in numbers along the Clydeside this evening to celebrate title victory.
Scores of supporters have congregated at Pacific Quay in the city centre to set off flares in the colour of red.
Fans can be heard chanting "championes, championes, champions" as dozens of pyros have been set off over the River Clyde.

It is the first time in 10 years the club has achieved the title.
Earlier this week, Glasgow's top cop fired a warning to fans who were planning on taking celebrations to the streets of Glasgow.
Chief Superintendent Mark Sutherland reminded organisers that the plans were against the law under ongoing Covid restrictions.
He said: “Under the current restrictions no-one should be gathering in numbers of more than six at the stadium or any other location and Police Scotland supports the club in urging its fans to do the right thing and follow the coronavirusregulations around gatherings.”
We told earlier how the Scottish Government welcomed an intervention from the Light Blues, who commanded their supporters not to gather in defiance of strict coronavirus rules.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
