An imminent announcement from our board detailing that we'll be using Hampden for all home games until the end of October is the latest "rumours" doing the rounds.

Great, love Hampden.

Given the informed rumour mill is now suggesting late October before the Copland Stand is fully renovated to accommodate much improved disabled facilities, should the Club be considering hiring Hampden for the full season to ensure the proposed improvements to both Broomloan and Sandy Jardine Stands are completed too?

 

The Club are doing these renovations for all the right reasons. Fellow Rangers supporters will be accommodated in comfort with improved sight lines; however, the Board and Chairman have made a rip roaring arse of it. Bite the bullet and sort it out by utilising the best compromised option.

No.

If the actual estimate for work on the Copland stand is October then definitely book Hampden for the season.

It definitely was on Football Scotland (has since been removed and an "apology" printed) but didn't see it / hear about it being on DR but may have been.

Maybe I misunderstood what Davie Edgar said.

From a selfish point of view, I would rather it was Murrayfield. I hate going to Hampden 4 times a season never mind what could essentially be anything between 10-30 times depending on inevitable delays at Ibrox. Wont help the team one iota either

If it’s to be Hampden I wonder what kind of deals been done in relation to the hospitality/catering money of course we will never know or need to know but would be interesting to know .
