I am delighted to be here and to have this opportunity. Rangers is my boyhood club, and it has always been a dream to play here, so I was really keen to get it done. "A lot of hard graft has gone in to get to this point, and I'm just really happy. "The club are in a position where they want to get back to winning silverware more regularly, and I want to be a big part of that, so that's what I have come here to do.

Scotland striker Lawrence Shankland has completed a transfer to Rangers from Scottish Premiership rivals Heart of Midlothian, agreeing a two-year deal at Ibrox with the option of a further 12 months.

In December, they won the League Cup with a magnificent victory over Celtic at Hampden - another triumph for manager Stephen Robinson after three straight top-six finishes in the Scottish Premiership. However, the consistent league form that had characterised Robinson's tenure had evaporated this term despite their cup heroics. They were dragged into a relegation battle and when Robinson departed for Aberdeen in March, and former youth coach Craig McLeish was thrust into interim charge with one brief - survive.

“There's always been this narrative surrounding Scottish football and referees,” BBC Sport football expert and former Celtic forward Chris Sutton said. “Whose side are the referees are on? That's the way it's viewed among both fan bases. “There's always there's been conspiracy theories doing the rounds.”

The Scottish FA say referee "John Beaton and his family spent last night at home under police surveillance following a leak of personal details online" and have urged "tolerance and perspective to prevent any further, unthinkable escalation". Beaton has faced criticism following the award of a late penalty, which was converted, in Celtic's 3-2 Wednesday win at Motherwell. The incident at Fir Park, which involved VAR, was the latest in a series of controversies involving decisions by referees as the Scottish Premiership title race reaches its conclusion.

Last seen over the weekend putting in a routine display at Pittodrie as they clinched a deserved 2-0 victory at home against Dundee United, Stephen Robinson's men should find the mood in their camp at a season-high. Smelling what is another golden opportunity on Tuesday night, the Reds are rightfully installed as a standout contender here. Signing off April with a 1-0 win against Kilmarnock, Aberdeen have registered 10 points from their previous four Premiership appearances.

The Barnsley-born Republic of Ireland international went against club wishes to accept the chance to join St Mirren for the second half of the season. A number of team-mates from the United Under-21 side he captained in the first half of the campaign have struggled for regular appearances during their loan moves into the senior game.

The 12-team division splits into two groups of six for the final five matches of the season, with each team playing every other team in their group once. This creates some nail-biting tension down the stretch, as the relegation rivals face each other, as do the title challengers. It also satisfies TV broadcasters, who now get four Old Firm league derbies to broadcast every year.
