Rangers vs Celtic odds SLASHED for protestors to strike amid growing sporting chaos

After delaying the Grand National and causing chaos at the Crucible with an orange powder stunt during the World Snooker Championships, where will Just Stop Oil, or any other protest group for that matter, strike next?

The big derby in Scotland is a major deal at the best of time, but a Scottish Cup semi final at Hampden cranks it up a notch. Celtic will be looking for Hampden revenge after losing 2-1 at the same stage last year, while Rangers need a win to retain any hopes of lifting a trophy this season following their Premier Sports Cup final defeat to their rivals and falling well off the pace in the Premiership.

Whether targeting the biggest fixture in Scotland to get your message out there - regardless of what it is - is the best idea, we’re not sure. But with millions tuning in from around the world, there’s certainly an audience to play to. Going by the reaction of snooker fans (who knew they were so foul mouthed?), any attempts to hijack the last four clash with a protest likely won't be received too well from those there to see their team.
