The SPFL has announced the final run-in for the top six and bottom six teams, with the title hanging in the balance.
Andy Walker has informed Rangers that they can’t complain about the post-split dates, admitting that St Mirren are the only club that may feel shortchanged.
The SPFL has confirmed the final five Premiership matchups for the top and bottom six, with every point counting in the run-up as Celtic and Philippe Clement’s team compete for the title. Both teams face Hearts, Kilmarnock, St Mirren, and Dundee, but Rangers must play three away games to balance their home schedule.
The Hoops, on the other hand, were given an extra date at Celtic Park, giving them three home fixtures, including a potential title decider against the Light Blues on May 11.
Some Rangers fans have expressed worry over the extra game on home ground provided by the supercomputer for the vital last five.
Walker maintained that only Stephen Robinson’s men might be permitted to complain after the
“anomaly” of facing Celtic away three times this term. He told Go Radio: “I think every club have got 19 home and 19 away.
“The slight anomaly is that St Mirren have got Rangers and Hearts three times at home, and St Mirren have also got Celtic away three times. I can’t see anyone complaining.
“We are at a stage now where it’s neck and neck, where you have got to win your games. The only reason you are losing at this stage is pressure. The only reason Rangers lost was just the pressure of the game and they haven’t had players in this position before.”
