Rangers were dealt a tough Champions League lesson tonight at Ibrox and it’s one Celtic fans have never experienced against Club Brugge.
Brugge battered Rangers in 20 painful Champions League minutes as Celtic supporters enjoyed watching Kris Boyd’s tears.
But it seems that after those 20 minutes, the BBC posted what they could hear and see the Rangers fans doing.
And this will have Celtic supporters in tears.
The BBC could hear Rangers fans boos ‘less than a mile from Ibrox’
The BBC posted on the live feed, “HALF-TIME: Rangers 0-3 Club Brugge
“The BBC office in Glasgow is less than a mile from Ibrox.
“There have been fans in red, white and blue heading past for a while now and we could hear the boos as the half-time whistle went.”
With Rangers struggling to get into the Champions League group phase, Celtic supporters look like they will be Scotland’s sole representatives in UEFA’s elite competition.
That is, of course, if Celtic beat Kairat Almaty at Parkhead tomorrow night.
If Brendan Rodgers’ side can make it and Rangers don’t, the amount of pressure on Russell Martin will be phenomenal.
And that is something every Celtic fan wants to see.
