The fall-out from the closure of Ibrox at the start of the new season will be catastrophic but other problems lurk.
I'm not sure what looks worse. Rangers mess up a rebuild at Ibrox and sack a staff member who couldn’t organise a delivery of building materials.
League games will need to be played on separate days to avoid social order problems and, even at that, there are no guarantees of trouble being avoided. Rangers’ governance has been called into question as a result of this fiasco. The last time I looked, the Ibrox chairman John Bennett was covering for the now departed CEO at Ibrox, James Bisgrove, following his decision to decant to the desert in Saudi Arabia.
But, given that Steve Clarke’s in charge of the national team, that’s a forlorn hope. The fixtures for the new season come out at nine o’clock on Thursday morning. That is the cue for mayhem. McGregor was, though, to be highly commended for his contribution towards the goal against Switzerland on Wednesday night that makes today’s Group A tie with Hungary a viable concern relative to the remainder of the competition.
