Meanwhile, our Scottish football correspondent, Ewan Murray, is answering fan questions in a live Q&A on the Matchday Live blog.
One reader, John W, poses an intriguing question: “How do Rangers close the gap on Celtic next season—and is bringing back Steven Gerrard the answer?”
The return of Steven Gerrard remains a popular suggestion among fans and pundits. Gerrard, who previously led Rangers to domestic success, remains a figure that supporters would welcome back. Given his experience and the lack of obvious alternatives at higher-profile clubs, it could be a move that benefits both parties.
However, Gerrard alone won’t erase the gulf between the two clubs. Celtic remains well ahead of Rangers, both on and off the field. Closing that gap will require more than nostalgia—it demands smarter financial strategy and better decision-making. There is some hope on the horizon, with a potential American-led takeover on the cards, but significant change will be needed if Rangers are to mount a serious challenge next season.
