SHOCKING EXIT;Rangers board make Philippe Clement sign his sack letter
The Rangers board remain “fully committed” to Philippe Clement after the resignation of John Bennett, according to Chris Jack.
The journalist reported on 16 September via the Rangers Review that the Belgian will remain in charge despite an early exit from the Champions League and a heavy Old Firm defeat this season.
It was shared that acting chairman John Gilligan sat down with the manager at Ibrox after their 1-0 win against Dundee United on 15 September.
Rangers make Philippe Clement sack decisionIf it wasn’t already obvious that Clement would be keeping his role as Rangers boss after his contract extension, it is now almost guaranteed.
Over the last few weeks, there has been some pressure building up around the future of the boss following poor results in the Scottish Premiership that have them lying third in the Scottish Premiership.
Although their performances haven’t been the best, not all of the Gers’ new arrivals have been fully integrated into the squad.
This alongside the fact that Rangers weren’t even playing their home games at Ibrox will no doubt have something to do with it.
While fans and pundits alike may think the Light Blues are wrong to back Clement after his below-par performance in the transfer window, in the long-term it makes a lot of sense.
The club are undergoing a rebuild and once that’s complete, fans will likely see improvements across the board.
In other Rangers news, Tony Watt has reacted to the Gers’ game against Dundee United.
Watt admitted that Rangers can turn it up a gear even when they are under pressure for poor results and off-field trouble continuing at Ibrox.
Speaking on the BBC’s Scottish Football Podcast (16 September, 7:33) Watt shared his thoughts on the result.
“I thought it was a decent game and I thought Rangers started well and if you give them that bit of time they’ll cut you open,” he said
