It’s the morning after the departure before yet today is the day.
Steven Gerrard moved to Aston Villa yesterday after days of speculation linking the former Rangers manager with an Ibrox exit. Who is next to pitch up on the south side of the Clyde is now a hot topic – especially with a Premier Sports Cup semi-final at Hampden with Hibs next weekend – but there’s a big match in mind before then.
Scotland face Moldova tonight in a World Cup qualifier that could seal a play-off for a place in Qatar next year and there’s plenty going on around the squad too, while Celtic and the clubs also use the down-time off the pitch to put plans in motion for January.
