They say absence makes the heart grow stronger, but we're not so sure.

Celtic and Rangers may have played in separate divisions since 2012, but the Bhoys are in no rush to see their crosstown rivals any time soon. Rangers are currently sitting pretty atop the Scottish Championship and could have confirmed their promotion back to Scotland's top tier with a win against Raith Rovers. As the game entered stoppage time, the league leaders held a 3-2 advantage and fans began to celebrate. https://twitter.com/Mr_CallumWright/status/716289780502421504 https://twitter.com/pamelaRFC/status/716289894256099328 https://twitter.com/jakewalker_39/status/716290970288001024 But a 94th-minute equaliser from Harry Panayiotou meant the Ibrox faithful will have to wait another week until being crowned Championship champions. Unsurprisingly, their Old Firm rivals enjoyed the shift in tone. https://twitter.com/CelticBible/status/716293629787127808 https://twitter.com/RossStevenson97/status/716309382397562880 https://twitter.com/GraemeBlack78/status/716308160294875136 https://twitter.com/petersmith96/status/716304560499900416 Still, some Rangers fans saw the bright side, as they now had the chance to secure promotion in front of a packed Ibrox. https://twitter.com/garylove89/status/716309089299611654
