Queen's Park have broken their silence on Rangers moving into Hampden Park, with the Spiders also having an agreement to use the facilities from mid-September.
In a move necessitated by delayed construction work at their home ground, Rangers have agreed to temporarily relocate their Scottish Premiership matches to Hampden Park until early September.
The arrangement, confirmed by the Scottish FA and SPFL on Monday afternoon, will see the Gers play their scheduled home games against Motherwell on August 10 and Ross County on August 24 at the national stadium.
Additionally, there are possibilities of other home fixtures in Europe and the Premier Sports Cup being held at Hampden as well.
The relocation is set to last until September 5, when Scotland is scheduled to host Poland in a Nations League match at Hampden Park.
Rangers have committed to funding "an accelerated pitch growth programme" to ensure the playing surface at the national stadium is ready for the Premiership season kick-off and claim that they are "continuing to work tirelessly" to complete the renovations to the Copland Stand at Ibrox "as soon as possible."
