GERS SET TO DROP IN by Jack Keithson


Rangers are set to be parachuted into the SFL next season – literally.

Players such as Lee McCulloch, Kirk Broadfoot and Lee Wallace will be dropped from a giant RAF Hercules plane onto the pitch at Ibrox to celebrate the opening of the new season.

With Newco Gers set to play their first game at home even though the fixtures have yet to be sorted out SFL chiefs were keen to afford a special welcome to the new members of the league.

A source said last night: “Top brass at the league were keen to show their appreciation to Rangers for gracing the lower leagues with their presence and this seems ideal. It was also armed forces day on Saturday so this could be a late celebration of that too.

“The players will be fully kitted out so they can rip of their parachutes and line up for kick-off and where better than Ibrox for this to happen?

“It’s not every season you welcome Rangers to your league”.

In a further bizarre twist, it has emerged that Celtic boss Neil Lennon will NOT enter the bidding for Barcelona star Lionel Messi this season plunging the Irishman’s future at the club into doubt.

It is the latest in a series of body blows for the long-suffering Parkhead supporters who could only watch on as stars like Korean international Cha Du-Ri left the club for NOTHING earlier this year.
