Crazy scenes outside Ibrox as Rangers fans welcome Steven Gerrard ahead of huge game

Reuben Pinder

Rangers could become champions this weekend

Rangers fans gathered in droves to welcome their team to Ibrox ahead of what is likely to be their last home game before they clinch their first league title in 10 years.

Ahead of their game against St Mirren, fans congregated outside the stadium, letting off red and blue flares while singing chants.

When manager Steven Gerrard arrived at the stadium, his car was swarmed by adoring fans, who spontaneously broke into a Viking style clap, much like Iceland’s fans did at Euro 2016.

Rangers could become champions this weekend if they beat St Mirren and Celtic drop points against Dundee United on Sunday. If it doesn’t happen this weekend, their next chance to secure the title will come at Celtic Park after the international break.
