To be honest, it was no great shock after the Welsh government's announcement. Per capita they have fewer omicron cases than we have.

mr mojo risin Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Can hear the conspiracy theories now if Rangers get to visit Aberdeen & Celtic with no home fans. Did Dave King bring Omricon into the country. 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the break is moved forward, then the Old Firm is the played when Aribo, Bassey and Balgoun are at the African Cup of Nations, but just before Kyogo and Rogic would fly out to play China (i think?) and Vietnam. But, of course, Its about the fans. (for the avoidance of doubt, if Rangers had a chance to gain an advanatage like this, we would absolutely be arguing for it too).

Never knew the African Nations was even on, never thought about players that would be missing. I doubt they would be the first games back though, that would reshuffle the whole calendar and there’s no guarantee it’ll automatically start again after 3 weeks.
