Arsenal cancel their trip to US due to several positive Covid results within "their camp". Hopefully not passed on to our boys, or worse, Arteta got up close and personal with Skippy, Neilly and the delightful Emma, so hopefully they're fine also

Weird that it looks like we'll be allowed a fuIl house for CL qualifier but not for OF? Making the rules up as they go along again it seems.

Does this indicate that it won't be a full house for the OF game?

Got a ticket for Real Madrid friendly - buzzin at the thougt of being back at Ibrox.

Gaffer giving his thoughts just now.

Big Itten 2-1 The Famous- against the run of play!

Can someone throw on another ball so we can have one to play with?

All change from both teams now

Rush of blood from Bassey, good move tho.

Decent delivery from Tav at that free-kick

Early stages of 2nd half following a similar pattern to the 1st half.

Paterson on at right back and Tav playing attacking wide right midfield

Plenty of improvement required, Arsenal could / should be 3 or 4 goals ahead, but we are missing Borna, Kent, Aribo, Helander and Alfredo who are key players in our squad / system. Arsenal very good high press, their passing is fast and crisp but their finishing leaving a lot to be desired thankfully. Plenty to work on and hopefully improvement in 2nd half.

JD off injured and Wright on.

Opening 30 minutes underlining how our system relies on out and out width and how we struggle with out our best wide players and without Alfredo as a target man. Front 3 passengers at the moment, midfield chasing shadows and defending miles away from last season Glad it's just our 3rd pre-season game.

Nice that our 1st game in Lowland League is against Bo'ness United

Decent article in today's Scotsman on the historical links between Arsenal and ourselves https://www.scotsman.com/sport/football/rangers/why-arsenal-are-the-perfect-guests-for-rangers-150th-birthday-bash-3310890

As are Celtic for their home friendly v Preston tomorrow.

Please add my name - thanks

Apparently not! Celtic given permission for only 9,000 for their CL qualifier........ less than 1/6 of capacity.

Aberdeen have been granted permission for 5000+ fans for their European Qualifier next week. Good to see Abderdeen Council using some common sense. Wonder of GCC will follow their example?

This one seems to be gaining traction with rumours suggesting we have placed a firm offer.

Hibs played Arsenal and asked for 6000 and got 2000. Celtic have Preston and have permission for 2000. Motherwell playing in league cup and asked for 4000 (think that's how many STs they have), got permission for 2000 As for the others??? But if they were playing a decent side, they'd all pull in over 2000 fans.

Depending on who they are playing in said friendly, Celtic, Hibs, Hearts, Motherwell, Aberdeen, Dundee United......

To be fair, it's not just Rangers (or Glasgow based clubs) that are being denied increased fan allocations. Still stinks, but it's not "anti-Rangers" at this moment in time. However, will be interesting to see how many Celtic are allowed for their CL qualifier a week today (they've requested 20k).
