Steven Gerrard was welcomed by thousands of delirious fans as he entered Ibrox this morning.
The Rangers manager was bombarded by fans who let off flares in front of the stadium, with their first Premiership title in 10 years an imminent success.
Gerrard could hardly believe the turnout as he was given a police escort into the ground as supporters congregated outside and either side of his car.

At one point the Gers boss can be heard saying, 'I can't see' as he drives towards the entrance because red and blue smoke has fogged up the view in front of him. Officers and stewards were on hand to ensure it made it through.
Fans, filming the inside of the car, catch the manager and the other person videoing footage in the passenger's seat, laughing and enjoying the moment.
We told earlier how smoke bombs and flares were launched as fans welcomed their team ahead of this afternoon's league clash against St Mirren.
More footage emerging, seemingly of Ibrox head of performance Jordan Milsom, showed him entering the stadium blasting Tina Turner classic 'The Best' from the motor.
Gers can seal their 55th title this weekend if they win their match and rivals Celtic drop points away to Dundee Utd.
Social gatherings remain banned under the current Scottish Government safety protocol restrictions in dealing with Covid-19.
