The Ibrox boss missed a huge chance to cut the gap down on Celtic and Aberdeen at the top but failed
They’d been waiting for this moment to come along ever since leaving Parkhead with their tails tucked between their legs. For weeks now, they’d be hoping it might drop out of the sky and land at their feet.
But, rather than gain a bit of ground on the front runners by eating into their lead, Clement and his players actually conspired to fall even further behind, as the five point gap they began the weekend with increased to six thanks to Marley Watkins’ late winner in Ayrshire. Rangers? They’re now just a single point better off than fourth placed Dundee United and it seems more likely they’ll be focusing on fending off this threat from Tannadice rather than harbouring any real hopes of getting involved in the argument brewing between the top two.
But it’s not going to wash with a support which is teetering on the brink of a full scale revolt as their club stumbles around from one mess into the next both on the park and off it. Add to that the fact that, already minus a full time chairman and chief executive, Rangers are now also going about their flawed business model without a director of football and it’s no wonder these fans are demanding fundamental change at the top of the old staircase.
