A meaningless Old Firm game? That simply doesn’t exist.
If it does, I never experienced one – and I played in a few on both sides of the divide. So don’t tell me that Saturday’s game at Celtic Park doesn’t have too much riding on it. I’ve played in them when they’ve effectively been title deciders. But I’ve also been involved when a league has already been won before kick-off. And I’m telling you, the edge to it was exactly the same.
Trust me, you NEED to win that game irrespective of the circumstances. Listen, we know the league is all but done and Celtic will be champions. But from Rangers’ point of view? There’s plenty on the line. For a start, my first question to Michael Beale would be: ‘In your time as manager this season, can you finish with more points than Celtic?’
