As Wednesday turns to Thursday, the weekend is getting closer and that means Rangers title charge is on the way.
No more disruptions, no more distractions, the talking will be done on the pitch.
Just as it seemed the middle of the week would come and go as normal, the massive revelation came that James Tavernier is set to leave Ibrox at the end of the season.
There will be some debate on the timing, but obviously, the process on the inside has come to a conclusion with the result that the club captain will depart after 11 years.
What a story. What a character in Rangers’ history. Over the next few weeks, we will witness the end of an era.
Best possible farewell for Tavernier
At Friday’s press conference, Danny Rohl will need to address the issue and acknowledge the impending departure of James Tavernier.
The Gers’ boss may even need to respond to an awkward question about how he will feature between now and the end of the campaign.
Needs must, but as everyone is aware, the bigger picture means that the priority is Rangers title charge and with it, the best possible farewell for the skipper.
This SPFL title race will be an end to the season like no other in the recent history of Scottish football.
Rangers, Hearts, and Celtic can all confidently say that their destiny is in their own respective hands, but something will give.
Ultimately, two clubs will fall short in the pursuit of glory.
Why Rangers can’t drop points against Motherwell
Three points against Motherwell on Sunday are essential for Rangers. Especially in the penultimate home game of the season.
It’s OK to say that the team may not win all five remaining games, but this isn’t the one to stumble or settle for a point. Not at all.
With Motherwell under Jens Berthel Askou, they will be expansive. They will attack.
That should suit Rangers. It will be an open game, with plenty of chances for both teams.
Rohl’s men must seize the initiative to control the game, but ultimately get the business done.
This is it. The resumption of Rangers title charge is just around the corner.
Are you ready?
