Rangers fans will hate latest Scotland vs Greece developments as announcement made
Rangers supporters will be handed a break from their dismal start to the campaign.
Russell Martin was sacked by Rangers after just five wins in his first 17 matches in charge of the Govan club.
While Rangers’ search for a new manager will dominate the landscape in the coming weeks, the Scotland national team are also in action.
However, Gers supporters with hopes of watching the national team’s clash with Greece will be filled with dread after a new update on the Hampden Park contest on 9 October.
Rangers have history with Scotland vs Greece referee
Rangers stars Liam Kelly and John Souttar are in the Scotland squad for their crucial World Cup qualifier with the Greeks.
However, they and supporters will hate the latest announcement that has been made ahead of the clash, as Espen Eskas has been appointed as the referee.
The Norwegian was in charge of the Gers’ 0-2 loss to Fenerbahce in the Europa League round of 16 last season, and booked 11 players at Ibrox, before Barry Ferguson’s side won a penalty shootout.
Scotland action gives Rangers fans a break from club chaos
Light Blues supporters may be grateful for the international break, given the chaos surrounding the Auchenhowie club at the moment.
The Martin era prompted significant protests and division among the fanbase, and the 49ers and Andrew Cavenagh have a tough job to restore faith in their abilities to lead such a historic institution.
- Martin was appointed in June
- He only lasted four months in the role, after a miserable run of results
- He was doomed from the start, as most fans never wanted him to take over the job
They have the break to think up a plan and ensure that the man they appoint is the right man to take the Gers forward, and challenge Celtic for the highest honours in the country.
Hopefully, they get it right and the Bears fans are not looking to future international breaks for a bit of relief from happenings in Govan.
If that happens, then the club will be looking ahead to the future, rather than the bleak circumstances that they find themselves in right now.
