Lee Johnson in Rangers 'disrespect' claim even if Gio van Bronckhorst rings the changes against Hibs
Lee Johnson insists it would be disrespectful on the Rangers players who take to the field at Easter Road on Saturday to say they would be weakened as the Hibs boss admits the Ibrox club could prioritise their Champions League playoff second leg against PSV Eindhoven in Holland four days later.
The Englishman was in Govan to run the rule over their next Scottish Premiership opponents as they battled out a 2-2 draw with Ruud van Nistelrooy’s Eredivisie outfit.
Giovanni van Bronckhorst is expected to make changes for the trip across the M8 as he looks to keep key men fresh for the match in the Philips Stadium.
PSV Eindhoven have had their match with FC Volendam postponed this weekend to allow them extra time to prepare for the shoot-out in Eindhoven which led to a debate over whether Rangers should have been afforded the same opportunity by the SPFL and, indeed, whether it would even be beneficial.
