This Is Ibrox claims that while Willie Collum warmed up before kickoff against Ayr United, he was subjected to

“dog’s abuse” by the Rangers supporters.

The Gers-focused source claimed on Twitter in the lead-up to the game on February 10 that the official did not

receive a hearty welcome from the Ibrox stands before kickoff.

The Scottish Cup tie is the first Light Blues match Collum has taken charge of since he was at the centre of

controversy as the video assistant for the 30 December Old Firm derby [Sky Sports, 9 February].

“With eighteen minutes to go, Willie Collum is already receiving dog abuse from the stands as he walks down the

tunnel following his warm-up,” writes This Ibrox.

Collum blasted by Rangers fans at Ibrox after Celtic controversy

Following the 2-1 Celtic win at Parkhead before the New Year, Collum swiftly waved off what appeared to be a

handball by Alistair Johnston in his own box, causing a great deal of repercussions.

Although the club responded angrily to Philippe Clement’s earlier VAR performance, it has turned out to be the sole

setback of his rule thus far. The Belgian has downplayed the matter.

Although this was not the first time the official had made contentious choices that Rangers had to deal with, it was

thought that the hierarchy’s response cost them the upper hand in this particular case.

Collum assumes leadership as Clement’s team looks to go on their quest for an improbable treble, considering how

the season began under Michael Beale.

The contest is further enhanced by Scott Brown’s presence on the sidelines as the manager of Ayr United, but if the

Light Blues perform at their present level, they should be too strong for his Scottish Championship team.

Oscar Cortes, Mohamed Diomande, and Fabio Silva—the three January additions—arrive at Ibrox as the team begins to take shape under Clement.

In unrelated Rangers news, David Edgar responded to a Scottish club’s criticism of the SPFL over a Light Blues dispute that was deemed “embarrassing.”
