Ibrox would be a great day out, even Stirling Albion would be. Some people on here just continually moan about everything about the club. Yes a lot is wrong but some have 100% negativity.

when we played at those grounds, they were in real competitions.

How long do Rangers get to piss around with the arrangements exactly? Must be a right faff with the club if we're trying to sort out travel etc.

The last game they played against Solihull got rearranged because of the internationals, so maybe they're looking to change the date.

Could you imagine the anger if it gets called off!

These are real competitions for the level we are playing at.

Nah, the trophy is a real competition for the level we are playing at. This is some nonsense dreamt up by some joker a couple of years back.

I'll be going to see a Wrexham team playing in a famous old stadium that I've never been to. The fact that it's unlikely to be the first team doesn't matter.

Rangers (and I am not a fan of them, not much of one of Celtic either still less Rangers though) are a major European club and Ibrox is a major European stadium no question at all.

I know it won't be the first team but if we play them at Ibrox that is surely the biggest club/ground Wrexham will have played at away since we played Man United in the FA Cup in 1995? Whilst the Premiership is a much bigger league than the Scottish league to me Stoke and the Brittania is one level but Rangers and Ibrox another higher one.

Maybe we should just play 2 sides in different comps that weekend as Liverpool seem to be doing with the Carabao Cup/World club challenge. We did that once with the FA Cup and Welsh Cup. Play the kids at Ibrox (if it's switched) what an experience it would be for them.
