Jack to face Jambos after appeal success
Rangers have won their appeal against Ryan Jack’s red card against Hibernian.
The midfielder will now be free to face Hearts tomorrow after the decision by a Scottish Football Association tribunal.
Hearts forward Isma Goncalves is also available to play after winning his wrongful dismissal claim.
Pedro Caixinha has revealed he has factored refereeing decisions into Rangers’ training sessions after their controversial loss to Hibs.
Midfielder Ryan Jack was sent off after motioning his head towards Leith frontman Anthony Stokes during a first-half melee in the 3-2 defeat.
Caixinha admits his men need to learn to control their temper – and confessed he has even thrown a few contentious calls into their practice matches to drum home that crucial lesson.
“Sometimes we will take a bad refereeing decision here in the training session to make them understand that things are going in that direction and might happen,” he said.
“That’s the only way you can train in those circumstances and allow the players to be focused on the tasks.
“That’s what we did with part of the analysis after the match.
“But I cannot control what the other players from the opposition teams are doing. I can just control mine.”
