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.
