Disgusted Rangers fans quit Ibrox just 20 minutes in to leave Amazon Prime doyen stunned

Disgusted Rangers fans quit Ibrox just 20 minutes in to leave Amazon Prime doyen stunned A first half horror show from Russell Martin's side is threatening to get even worse and some punters don't want to see any more Rangers manager Russell Martin cuts a frustrated figure on the Ibrox touchline Rangers fans started leaving Ibrox after just 20 MINUTES as their team's Champions League dream imploded in front of their eyes. ‌ Russell Martin's shellshocked side shipped three goals to a Club Brugge team who no doubt can't believe their luck and already have one foot in the league phase and are counting the £40million jackpot that is surely coming their way. ‌ Nasser Djiga's moment of madness in just leaving a ball over the top for Jack Butland to collect was punished in exquisite style by Romeo Vermant, who chipped the ball over the stranded keeper first time. ‌ The boos started in earnest after just seven minutes when Jorne Spileers was given the freedom of the penalty are to double the advantage. And a third goal after less than a third of the game had been played proved too much for some. Fans started making their way to the exits no doubt with a stiff drink in mind given what their team had subjected them too. Article continues below It was picked up by stunned Amazon Prime commentator Jon Champion, who was quick to point out the mass exodus. The anger of those who stayed was also not lost on former Gers coach and co-commentator for the night Neil McCann. And the fear will be that this could get far, far worse before it gets any better and some punters would rather not hang around to witness it. Chris Sutton stuck the boot in when he posted on social media: "I thought Rangers fans don't do walking away… 20 minutes in and many have given up already…" ‌ Rangers goalkeeper Jack Butland looks dejected You can follow our LIVE blog here.

Louis Munteanu bid blows Celtic out the water as Brendan Rodgers reveals reason for two transfer blocks

The Hoops are desperate to get attacking reinforcements in before the September 1 deadline Celtic's hopes of landing Louis Munteanu have suffered another setback - with the CFR Cluj star said to be on the brink of a move to La Liga. ‌ The Romania striker is said to be on Brendan Rodgers' radar, with the Hoops reportedly seeing a £6.9million bid thrown out earlier this summer. ‌ Munteanu is also wanted by Ligue 1 side Rennes, who are on the hunt for a forward after selling Arnaud Kalimuendo to Nottingham Forest. ‌ And now Fanatik now claim Valencia in Spain have launched a bid to bring the player to the Mestalla. They report that a loan offer worth £.17million has been submitted, with the Munteau then joining the La Liga club permanently next summer for £8.6million. As well as Munteanu, Celtic have been linked with Leicester City legend Jamie Vardy, who is a free agent after ending his memorable spell with the Tigers at the end of last season. Rodgers previously worked with the ex England international during his tenure at the King Power Stadium but has refused to comment on Celts' interest in the 38-year-old. The Irishman has however confirmed that loan rules have held up the Parkhead exits of duo Stephen Welsh and Marco Tilio. Defender Welsh is a target for Plymouth Argyle while Rapid Vienna are keen on Aussie Tilio. ‌ Rodgers said: "What makes it difficult is that there's selling a player and loaning a player. "And obviously we only have a certain amount of loans. ‌ 'So there's six loans internationally that the boys can go out. So then you then have to look at it. Who is to go out? And sometimes clubs will offer to buy a player and they'll offer to loan a player. "So we have to make sure that it is the right loan. "And the two boys that you mentioned have been great and they've had opportunities to move on and I hope for them that they get the chance to do that. "But there's a little bit more behind the scenes that needs to happen for that to take place.'
