The flag is being run up at Celtic Park this evening, but it points to yet more success rather than any surrender. Title No.56 has already been secured, though Martin O'Neill wants more. After all, the 76-year-old Irishman didn't return to Glasgow to top up his pension.
O'Neill's hunger for more
He is after more transfers – the incomings of Kasper Hogh and Camilo Duran won't satisfy him, exciting as though they are. O'Neill's is hungry for more. More signings, more success. And although part of the evening will pay homage to last season's league win, much of it will also look forward.
Dundee challenge
To that end, Dundee must be disposed of after Celtic's city rivals Rangers dropped points to Dundee's at Tannadice on Friday night. Dens boss Steven Pressley is no mug of course and will still be hopeful of getting something in Glasgow's East End despite being shorn of many of last season's key players.
Speaking of which, what will the post Daizen Maeda Celtic look like? Will the aforementioned Hogh hit the ground running? Only one way to find out.
