Brendan Rodgers will be in the Ibrox technical area next month after the Celtic manager was handed an immediate one-match ban for criticising the match officials in the aftermath of the recent game against Hearts.
The Northern Irishman was accused of breaching Rule 72 which forbids criticising match officials “in such a way as to indicate bias or incompetence” after Celtic’s 2-0 defeat at Tynecastle on March 3.
Rodgers claimed the “level of incompetence” made him worry for the game as he criticised the displays of the referee Don Robertson and his video assistant John Beaton in particular, with Yang Hyun-jun’s early red card and a controversial penalty for handball against Tomoki Iwata the key complaints.
