It's virtually impossible for fans of both halves of the Old Firm to be happy at the same time but Ange Postecoglou and Gio van Bronckhorst managed that feat at the end of last season. And it seems the feelgood factor survived the summer with Rangers and Celtic supporters convinced in equal measures that their team will go from strength to strength in the coming season.
That doesn’t mean the back-biting and sniping at each other doesn’t continue unabated. There’s no dolphin music in the background here, folks, so without further ado, let’s get started. Lance Little, Erskine, said: “I can’t wait for the new season. Celtic have signed well in keeping the two best players in the league last year and adding a few more quality players. Our Japanese stars have had rest time and look even more dangerous. We missed the Treble last season but I’m confident of getting it this time. We are the champions, and we welcome the chase.”
But Robert Livingstone, Palm Beach, Florida, emailed: “With so many new Rangers players ready to take the field and Morelos back in weeks, the Gers fans will be looking forward to a great season of Scottish football. The Rangers squad looks much stronger than when they last won the title, so winning three domestic trophies may be a possibility. But no matter what the critics spew out about SPFL, it’s always great to see the start of a brand new season. I’m looking forward to watching the live game on Saturday and let’s make it a great season for the fans whoever they follow.”
