Rangers fans all say the same about Andreas Skov Olsen signing permanently after latest
Rangers fans do not want to see forward Andreas Skov Olsen sign permanently for the club in the summer transfer window.
The reaction comes after Rangers were knocked out of the Scottish Cup by Glasgow rivals Celtic at Ibrox, with the contest decided on penalties following a 0-0 draw.
James Tavernier hit the crossbar and Djedi Gassama missed his penalty as Celtic won the shootout 4-2 to advance to the semi-finals of the competition.
Rangers’ season now rests with the Scottish Premiership, where Danny Rohl’s side can win the title if they can overturn Hearts’ six-point advantage at the top of the table.

Skov Olsen started the contest against Celtic at Ibrox, but the 26-year-old was substituted in the second half with Rangers pressing for the opening goal of the game.
The forward joined the Gers on loan from Wolfsburg in the January transfer window with an option to make the move permanent for £8million in the summer.
The Dane has made eight appearances for the club, scoring just once and providing just two assists, with fans having expected to have seen more from the winger.
Rangers fans were unanimous that the club can not sign Skov Olsen in the summer, with one supporter saying he is a “waste of space” and an “empty shirt.”
Rangers confirm Youssef Chermiti transfer stance
Sources have told Football Insider that Rangers have no plans to let Youssef Chermiti leave the club despite concerns over his performances.
Rangers signed Chermiti from Everton for £10million last summer, and the striker has yet to convince supporters that he was worth the investment.
The 21-year-old has scored three goals against Celtic and four goals against Hearts this season, but otherwise his output has been limited in front of goal.
Chermiti failed to get on the scoresheet in the Scottish Cup defeat to Celtic, despite Rohl’s side having had 24 shots on the visitors’ goal.
Only six of those shots were on target as Chermiti, and his strike partner Ryan Naderi were thwarted by a resilient Celtic defence and goalkeeper Viljami Sinisalo.
Rangers and Chermiti will hope to get their season back on track when they travel to St Mirren next in the Scottish Premiership.
