During Celtic’s win over Buckie Thistle fans were informed that Storm Isha had forced Scotrail to cancel all services from 7pm.
Scotland took a battering overnight, damage was widespread across the country with Ibrox among the casualties.
The morning after the storm before the damage was visible, over at Ibrox the banners covering up the big spaces at the Broomloan Road Stand were in tatters, blowing around in the wind which was down to more recognisable levels. The damage inside the Stadium is unknown.
Dynamic new CEO James Bisgrove recently told a Fans Forum that the club had advanced plans to raise the capacity of the Stadium to 70,000 seats.

Ibrox won’t be in use again until February 3 when Livingston are the visitors, the first of four home matches in 11 days.
As Isha dies down a little she will be replaced by Storm Jocelyn with Scotrail planning to close the rail network from 7pm on Tuesday.
On Wednesday night Philippe Clement will take his Tribute Act through to face Hibs as they play one of their postponed fixtures with no new signings expected to be included in the squad.
Kemar Roofe is hoping to resume full training in the next 7/10 days.

The state of that stadium it looks like the auld 50 pitches set up from yesteryear.
All that is missing with those boards scattered all over the place Steptoe&son with horse hanging around outside it,trying to pick up the bits of shite lying about and that includes the players and coaching staff.
On another matter is the guy that shouted about the deeds to the stadium still alive aka the boozejockey stink bomb bomber Brown,someone mentioned he was staying in the Copland hotel.
Boards scattered all over the place…
Not a new phenomenon for Liebrox is that one Scud !
Anything that damages this cesspit can only be an improvement…It’s a tip.
Old dump looks like the Louisiana Superdome after Hurricane Katrina hit.
Should’ve backed up those poles with something!
Never wish bad, but, in these circumstances I hope God has a sense of humour
Wot a dump, not fit for gypsies tramps and thieves…as they call others!!! the brass neck broxies.joke club.
Love the Simple Waste Solutions sign. Is that above the office where their transfer and recruitment team are based?
just thinking ths same thing, ye. could get their whole stadium into a few of these simply your waste skips, and chuck it all intae the other dump ‘oer at tyncastle.
