Rangers are reduced to hoping for Celtic crumbs while Ange is about and he could do them a favour at Ibrox - Hotline

The knives are out for the SFA over the teatime kick off for next month’s Scottish Cup Final.

Hampden top brass were getting it in the neck from all angles over the 5.30pm start time for Celtic v Inverness on June 3. Such is the clamour that even a Rangers fan called the Hotline to back Celtic’s fury towards the blazers. Willie Mercer, Dumfries, said: “Once again those in charge of Scottish football have given zero thought to the fans of both Celtic and Inverness by deciding a 5.30pm kick off for the Scottish Cup Final. Doing this with no consultation with either club is a disgrace.

"No thought or consideration has been given to the inconvenience this will cause to the fans of both teams relating to their travel arrangements. While I support Rangers I am also a football fan and wholeheartedly back Celtic in their criticism of the SFA."
