Rangers will take a 5,000 mile round trip in the days leading up to the first derby of the season against Celtic later this month. The Ibrox side going out of the Champions League has obvious positives in cash terms for Celtic. It would not have been helpful to the Bhoys’ trophy hunt this season…
Yes it’s an advantage but theRangers will be eager to try to ensure last season’s success. Wounded animal type of playing. They’ll be tired so Ange should make sure we press hard.
Based on the current form of both clubs I would make the Hoops odds on favourites to take three points from Ibrox. The only question is can theRangers get their act together after the disaster of crashing out of the Champions League. I am not using the term ‘disaster’ for nothing because it is difficult to see how their players can motivate themselves while their board will be discussing the imminent fire sale. I reckon they are a busted flush.
HH Let’s not get carried away, it does not matter how far away our opposition travel we are out and about too, Celtic must not start getting into a false attitude as that is when Disaster strikes and players get injured with slack passing, We have to treat everybody with respect and Hammer them with Goals galore must keep this type of play going so don’t stop we have not won anything. just start of 10 in a Row if we keep playing fast games hh ktf
You have no idea how much that news upset me when I heard it. Naw, really I was so dreadfully upset at the thought of them spending 16 hours travelling each way. I was so upset I p*ssed myself. I even called my wife to tell her. She asked where I was ringing from and I said my waist to my socks…
