Connor Goldson of Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers doesn’t like the club’s next opponents.

Suffice to say that Rangers fans on Twitter are liking what Connor Goldson said today.

Rangers could go top of the Scottish Premiership this weekend if Steven Gerrard’s side beat old rivals Hearts at Tynecastle on Sunday.

There is little love lost between both sides, and here’s what the Gers’ centre-back told a press conference, via The Record, earlier this afternoon.

“I’ve heard Tynecastle is one of the best atmospheres in the country. There is nothing better than winning away, making the home fans quiet and hearing our fans.

“This is a proper away game with a team that don’t like Rangers, we don’t like them and we go there for three points.”

And going by Rangers fans’ reaction to Goldson admitting that he ‘doesn’t like Hearts’, he has won more admirers.

On a personal note, Goldson struggled in Thursday’s 0-0 draw with Villarreal in the Europa League.

He was skinned once or twice, and also missed Rangers’ best chance of the game by shooting over the crossbar as the goal gaped.

For his and the Gers’ sake, you would hope that he is a lot better against the Jambos, because the home fans would never let him live it down if he went out and had a mare, on the back of these headlines.
