Glasgow Rangers fans are delighted with a statement from the club calling fans to stay at home ahead of the Old Firm derby next weekend.

The Gers’ status as Premiership champions was confirmed last Sunday after Celtic could only manage a 0-0 draw with Dundee United. In the aftermath of that triumph, thousands of supporters took to the streets of Glasgow to celebrate, breaking coronavirus regulations in the process. There were also reports of damage to public property (Sky News).

Such is the worry that a similar situation could occur around Rangers’ clash with Celtic, Justice Secretary Humza Yousaf has suggested the game could be postponed (Twitter). Now, the Gers have released a statement imploring their supporters to stay at home instead of taking to the streets.

The statement was shared on Twitter, and it delighted the fans. They took to the social media platform to share their thoughts on this important matter.
