Pundit shares Police Scotland would never allow Rangers final day fixture

Rangers would have never been allowed to face Celtic on the final day of the William Hill Premiership alongside the Edinburgh derby.

Former Jambo Ryan Stevenson wanted the SPFL to end the season with the Old Firm derby and Hearts taking on Hibernian with the post-split fixture list.

While the idea sounds tempting, the cops surely wouldn’t have wanted to see it come to pass, given the personnel it would require and the obvious history of animosity between the two rivalries.

The recent Old Firm chaos at Ibrox in the Scottish Gas Scottish Cup quarter-final just goes to show how ugly things can get in Scottish Football.

Danny Rohl’s team got past Dundee United and closed the gap with Hearts to one point, making for a potentially interesting final day to the 2025-26 campaign.

Rangers can hold massive advantage after post-split announcement

Motherwell, Hearts and Celtic will be the Gers’ first three games after the split, giving Rohl a chance to stamp a mark in the title race.

If the Light Blues continue their winning run before facing Hibernian and then Falkirk to end the season, they will surely be in the driving seat to win the league title.

Also, Hearts will travel to Parkhead on the final day of the campaign, with both possibly having a lot to play for in that moment.

The Govan side are on a 14-game unbeaten run and go into the last six games with momentum on their side in the William Hill Premiership.

With the German manager on the brink of greatness, fans in G51 could see the unthinkable happen, as many had thought it impossible to be in such a position after Russell Martin’s dismissal.

Danny Rohl has defensive dilemma at Ibrox

Jayden Meghoma returned to the Rangers starting lineup against Dundee United, but wasn’t necessarily great in the 4-2 victory.

Tuur Rommens has picked up a knock at Ibrox and it remains to be seen how long the left-back will be out for after an impressive start to his career at the Gers.

It’s clear that the former Westerlo defender has been Rohl’s first choice in recent weeks, but the German manager surely needs to change his tactics up a bit for the upcoming matches without the Belgium Under-21 international.

Supporters in Govan will be nervous, but there’s also a pinch of anticipation that greatness is on the horizon.
