"Rangers Football Club is shocked at the disgraceful behaviour of Hibs fans at full time. Rangers players and staff were assaulted by these fans who invaded the pitch and in the interests of their safety could not return to the pitch for the medal presentation". There can be no place for the violent behaviour witnessed at the end of the Final and Rangers fully expect the Scottish Football Association and Police Scotland to launch an investigation to find out where security measures failed. The Club would like to commend Rangers fans for the restraint the showed under severe provocation.
A hero or MOTM or just an inclusion in the TOTW would be great. SPL gets no love at all!
Scottish League Cup Final | Rangers vs Celtic
Sunday 8th December 2019 | KO 15:00 GMT | Hampden Park
The match is live on BT Sports in UK.
I’d just like to mention that I’m looking at this match from an interest in Stevie’s managerial career, regardless of the club he is managing. This thread is not about whether you prefer Celtic or Rangers, this thread is for discussion of the cup final from a point of view of supporting LFC legend Steven Gerrard.
#Scottish League Cup Final 2019
Rangers are the most successful club in the Scottish League Cup (SLC) with 27 wins and 7 final losses, their last win being in 2011. It will come as no surprise then, that Celtic are the second most successful, having won the SLC 18 times while suffering 15 final defeats.
Neil Lennon’s men are going for a fourth successive domestic treble, and their 11th consecutive domestic trophy. Whereas Rangers are still looking for their first silverware since returning to Scotland’s top flight in 2016, and excluding their Second, Third and Fourth Division titles, their first trophy since 2010/11.

#Rangers
Team News
Midfielder Steven Davis may possibly be a doubt having "one or two carrying knocks".
Another possible doubt is left-back Borna Barisic who missed Wednesday's draw at Aberdeen.
