Danny Murphy has claimed that the last Old Firm derby had to be canceled due to too few away fans attending.
Clashes between Celtic and Rangers have only been played in front of home fans, with clashes erupting since 2018 when the Ibrox club first reduced the rivals’ player quota to 750 players.
The Hoops last won 2-1 at the end of December, but the victory remained despite Garth’s pleas to keep supporters on site.
It was reported yesterday that initial talks had taken place to reinstate a smaller 750 allocation for the remaining two Derby games of the season, but there is still a long way to go before both clubs agree the necessary concessions.
It is understood that there is.
The former Liverpool and Tottenham midfielder told talkSPORT: .
The last game they played, I played.
maybe 15, 20 minutes?
“Maybe it’s okay to be honest.
” The reason I changed direction was the lack of fan interaction.
It was so strange that I couldn’t bear to look at it.
I think that’s it (the needle is missing).
