Rangers defender Kirk Broadfoot insists everybody at Ibrox is focusing only on their own title challenge despite pressure from Old Firm rivals Celtic.

The Gers maintained their four-point lead at the top of the SPL table with a 3-1 victory over Aberdeen on Saturday and Broadfoot believes the form of Celtic - who have won their last nine league games - is not causing a distraction.

"We never watched any of the Celtic game because we were watching a wee bit on Aberdeen," he told the club's official website.

"I didn't actually know the result until half-time in our game and even then, that's only because I saw it flash up on the television.

"We're not concerned about Celtic, only ourselves. As long as we keep winning that's all we need to clinch the title. It's important to just focus on our own preparations.

"That's not as simple as it sounds because we have a lot of hard games ahead but it doesn't bother me what other teams are doing."
