Naismith frustrated by postponements
Steven Naismith has no fears about Rangers' ability to cope with a potential fixture backlog in the New Year.
But the midfielder admits the players are growing increasingly frustrated by their lack of football in recent weeks.
Tuesday night's Clydesdale Bank Premier League game at Dundee United was postponed for a second time due to adverse weather conditions, after significant water damage at Ibrox forced the weekend match against St Mirren to be called off.
That means the Scottish champions have had just one domestic fixture - the 1-1 draw at Inverness - in the last month, as they prepare to travel to Motherwell on Boxing Day.
Naismith said: "The stop-start to your week isn't the best preparation. We just really want the games to be back on, it's been a bit disappointing that they've been off.
"The thing a player likes best is a routine and knowing your full week. It's quite distracting when games are called off days before and training is changing. The uncertainty is definitely frustrating for the players."
