Fans Predict 'Carnage' As Celtic & Rangers Paired In Cup Double-Header

Fans Predict 'Carnage' As Celtic & Rangers Paired In Cup Double-Header

Used though we are in Ireland to the prospect of a GAA double-header, football fans in Scotland are predicting potential carnage as Rangers and Celtic prepare to play alternate Scottish League Cup semi-finals in the same stadium, on the same day.

Due to play Aberdeen and Hearts respectively, Steven Gerrard's Rangers will first play out their semi-final clash in Hampden Park at a lunchtime slot.

Later on that evening, Brendan Rodgers' Celtic will also play in Hampden Park to decide who meets Ranger or Aberdeen in the cup final.

In what is largely being presented as a disastrous scheduling error, many are curious how things may play out when four sets of fans descend upon Glasgow in such a short period of time.

Given that neither Celtic nor Rangers ever tend to play in Glasgow on the same day to avoid potential incidences, this development certainly appears unusual given the sheer quantity of fans from either side (and from Aberdeen and Hearts) that will be in or around Glasgow.
