Breaking News:Rangers set to accept new financial hit as Ibrox decision made in redevelopment

Rangers are ready to take a financial hit just to ensure they get back to Ibrox “as soon as possible”, according to football finance expert Dan Plumley.

 

The Light Blues have played their opening home games of the Premiership season at Hampden Park after redevelopment work from the summer overran into the new campaign at Ibrox.

Philippe Clement’s side will return to Ibrox for their clash with Dundee on 21 September but Plumley admits their turnover from the game will be impacted as the Copland Road Stand remains closed.

 

“Given the PR fallout from this from the off it’s a case of let’s get back there as soon as possible,” Plumley exclusively told Ibrox News.

 

“They can put the whole thing to bed and whether or not you have to take the slight hit to deliver that, that’s the kind of stance that they’re taking.

We’ve talked a lot at length about the financial side of it having not been able to play there already, we’ve talked about the financial side of it, we’ve talked about the impact on fans and the wider PR take on it.

 

“None of that has been overwhelmingly positive so I think from the outside looking in that they may not be able to hit the ground running for that particular game, but in the future that will be fine.

“It’s just a case that they’ve got to get back there as soon as possible.”
