NEWS… BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT
Rangers manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s job was on the line last night after the 2-1 defeat by St Johnstone left Gers a massive seven points behind Celtic at the top of the cinch Premiership.
The Light Blues made unwanted history last Tuesday when their 3-1 home defeat to Ajax saddled them with the worst-ever record in the Champions League – and there was more pain in Perth.
Saints wing-back James Brown fired in his first senior goal after 41 minutes with a stunning drive and former Rangers striker Nicky Clark grabbed a second in the 62nd minute to leave the visitors reeling and their fans in uproar.
Gers skipper James Tavernier reduced the deficit in the 73rd minute but ultimately it was another punishing defeat which means the Ibrox side have now won just one of their last three league games, with their title hopes already slipping away.
