On Thursday evening, Light Blues officials confirmed that they are poised to complete a deal that will see them temporarily relocate to Hampden Park in the early weeks of the new season until restoration work at the old ground in Govan is complete. However, to the despondency of Rangers supporters, they have been unable to put a timescale on just how long the repairs at Ibrox will take, with the club still waiting on building materials from further afield in order to get the stadium back into commission.
