Rangers are calling on fans to follow government guidelines as they gear up for this weekend's title party.
Supporters have made plans to celebrate as the Ibrox side lift the Premiership trophy for the first time in a decade on Saturday.
However, the club say it should be done in a 'safe and sensible' manner due to the current Covid-19 restrictions.
Police and Government officials have already warned Rangers fans not to gather in large groups in and around Glasgow this weekend.
A club statement said: "This Saturday will be a historic day in the illustrious history of our 150-year-old institution. It’s been a long journey over the past 10 years and we would not have achieved ‘55’ without the loyalty and support of you, our fanbase. You have followed us through the darkest of times, and have stood firm, in anticipation of the club lifting the league trophy for a world record 55th time.
"It’s a day to enjoy and to celebrate the achievements of our club, and the title win by Steven Gerrard and his team. However, we are cognisant that the battle against Covid-19 is far from over and that the virus is still live. It hasn’t gone away.
"Please celebrate this historic day for our club in a safe and sensible manner, respecting public safety- adhering to the current government guidelines and restrictions which are still in place.
"In particular, please be mindful of the government guidelines regarding gathering in large numbers. If possible, please celebrate within your own community.
Once again, we thank you for your unrivalled support, and look forward to welcoming you back to our stadium to create the famous Ibrox atmosphere, once restrictions permit".
