Ibrox outfit Glasgow Rangers are a bigger club than Celtic, according to former Crystal Palace chairman Simon Jordan.

Former Crystal Palace chairman Simon Jordan has stated on social networking site Twitter that Rangers are a bigger club than Old Firm rivals Celtic.

Rangers and Celtic are two of the biggest clubs in the world and are fierce rivals in Scotland.

Rangers returned to the top flight of Scottish football only at the end of last season and may not end up second in the Scottish Premiership this campaign.

The Gers do not have the financial muscle or the squad at the moment to compete with Celtic, who have already won the Scottish Premiership title this season.

However, there can be no doubt that in the coming years Rangers will return to their best and give the Hoops a run for their money.

What the Gers need is a long-term plan and a shrewd recruitment policy. The Ibrox outfit need to sign the right players in the summer transfer window in order to close the gap between themselves and Celtic next season.
