Nico Raskin is the latest Ibrox star to claim that there isn’t very much between the two Glasgow clubs.
Under Ange Postecoglou Celtic haven’t lose over 90 minutes in a Glasgow Derby since August 2021, a run that has delivered three trophies with at least one more certain from this season.
The big two meet again at Hampden on Sunday for a place in the final of the Scottish Cup with the stats beginning to pile up against Micky Beale’s squad.
Most clubs would keep media content to a minimum as they chase an elusive result but at Ibrox they seem to take a very different approach, talking up their prospects at every turn. Despite three defeats and one draw since September.
Picking up on an interview with Sky Sports, the Daily Record reports Raskin saying:
It’s very important for two reasons. Rangers we need to win something for the season and it is our last chance, we also want to win against them.
The last game we lost but we have another feeling, we are not that far from them. We had some chances, okay, they won, so now we focus even more on ourselves, and we go with a strong team and mentality, and go for it.
Raskin was substituted 62 minutes into Sunday’s defeat at Aberdeen, the Scottish Cup tie will be shown by Viaplay Sport, there is no obligation to speak to Sky Sports to for interviews.
Both clubs will stage their formal pre-match media conferences later in the week.
Just 13 points that’s all . Nothing much really
It’s great for Ange that these clowns continually do much of his pre-match speech for him. Just pin this up in the dressing room along with all the other pish they spout. Job done.
Now imagine any Celtic team spouting this oolr a nonsense in the cheating ebt years and ha ha not a chance and it be ridiculed if we did by media but also by us ourselves!! 13 points and counting and another incoming TREBLE!! Aye nae bother clown shoe!! Absolute weirdos tho this always been the mantra over there!! Glasgow is GREEN and White!! And we are the only real big club playing in that set up to by miles as their oldco director even told them Mr high Adam!! ” Only Global club in Scotland is Celtic”! His words tho I known it for years living overseas the weirdo cult of oldco and now secco don’t travel well
Pile of nonsense even
