Frail’s bhoys ready for Rangers title crunch

|
Youth boss Stevie Frail isn’t planning to change his side’s attacking instincts for tomorrow’s Murray Park clash with Rangers.
Celtic lost 2-1 to Rangers at home last month despite having the bulk of possession giving Rangers a slight edge in the title race.
The Ibrox side put up an impressive defensive barrier in front of goalkeeper Grant Adams and took their chances with second half goals from Archie Campbell and Kane Hemmings before Bahrudin Atajic scored a late goal for Celtic.
It was almost a re-run of some classic mid-nineties clashes between the teams at first team level when Tommy Burns side tended to emerge with a moral win with the points going to Ibrox.
Frail’s side is geared towards attacking football with the former Hearts boss convinced that only some minor changes are required to succeed tomorrow.
He said: “There are one or two small things that we need to take from the last game with Rangers.
“But looking at it from an attacking point of view we don’t think that there was a great deal wrong.
“Anyone who was at the game can see that we were a unfortunate not to win it. Rangers had a game plan, they stuck to it and got the points. We need to make sure that we have a game plan for Saturday and we take the points from them.”
Frail added: “This is a huge game for us but it’s a match that we feel we are eqipped to win.
“Rangers have had a few extra days to prepare after playing on Sunday but we’ll be up for the match and ready.
“We only have ourselves to deal with, we believe that we have a group of young players who will take enormous heart from the win over Livingston in terms of confidence.
“It’ll be tough going to Murray Park but whenever the lads put on a Celtic strip people are out to knock them down and it’s the same for Rangers.”
