#Rangers played Leverkusen the night before football was suspended in Scotland. Glasgow was full of Leverkusen fans when Germany was in the grip of the pandemic. There is a narrative here which at best is churlish, at worst, a targeted blame culture. Any figures from a year ago?

I voted for Gerrard #Rangers as MOTY. However, had the vote been extended until after #ScottishCup final, I'd still have voted for him. Callum Davidson was fantastic. Gerrard was incredible, a record-breaker. And add 13 games in Europe, to help the nation. No, only one winner
