Rangers have four games in hand for a few reasons. We played today, they play tomorrow. There was a run of really bad weather in March; a couple of cup replays; the SFAs stupid decision to postpone the entire league programme the weekend before the Scotland v Italy game; Rangers decision to cancel a game against Gretna to give them time to prepare for their CL game against Lyon; and ultimately their UEFA Cup run giving them no free midweeks.
The Glasgow derbies were bunched together because the New Year game was postponed following the death of Phil O Donell. But yes, it is a shit league, tbh.
Anyway. Rangers need to win 5 of their last 6 games. Including the UEFA final, they have 7 games in the next 18 days. I think Celtic have a wee chance still.
