The message Rangers must send to Celtic as derby dominator pinpoints the key detail needed to reignite title race

Charlie Miller’s record in Old Firm games for Rangers reads: Played 10, lost none.

So the former Rangers midfielder knows how vital it is to come out on top in Glasgow derbies. But the nine-in-a-row hero admits beating their city rivals in their own backyard was even better than a victory in Govan. Miller says Michael Beale’s current crop have to send a message out to Ange Postecoglou’s runaway leaders when they meet on April 8.

He knows how tough that will be but insists an away win next month could keep alive Rangers’ faint hopes in the title hunt. He said: “Going to Celtic Park and winning puts a marker down. But the mentality has to be right. Some of Rangers’ players have it because they’ve done it before. But others haven’t experienced it yet. Winning any Old Firm game was brilliant. At Ibrox you were always expected to beat Celtic.
