Philippe Clement is expected to continue as the Rangers manager before their match against Hearts in the Scottish Premiership on Sunday, which will be broadcasted on Sky Sports. This comes despite his team’s recent 1-0 defeat to Queen’s Park, a team from the Championship, effectively ending their chances of winning domestic trophies this season. Currently, Rangers are trailing 13 points behind Celtic in the league, with 26 matches remaining, having already faced a loss to their rivals in the League Cup final. As Rangers approach the final stages of the Europa League, numerous supporters are urging that the Belgian manager be dismissed after merely two months in charge. Nevertheless, it seems to be a typical situation at Rangers leading up to their match on Sunday, which will be broadcast live on Sky Sports. Clement has also asserted that he has no intention of stepping down from his position. What developments are occurring behind the scenes? Rangers CEO Patrick Stewart (L) expressed his support for manager Philippe Clement (R) last month. It might not be shocking for supporters to consider the idea of maintaining the status quo since CEO Patrick Stewart announced a month ago that he would continue supporting Clement, at least for the time being. Despite a stretch of four consecutive away matches without a win—though one of those included an Old Firm victory—there hasn’t been an impulsive response. Stewart mentioned that it would have been “the simple choice” to heed the fans’ dissatisfaction and dismiss Clement. Nevertheless, he feels that his tenure as manager at Old Trafford demonstrates that frequent changes in leadership are ineffective. Nonetheless, he cautioned that results need to enhance, without providing any “absolute guarantees.” Rather than seeking immediate solutions, Stewart emphasized the importance of examining the underlying issues at Ibrox. Rangers have watched their competitors, Celtic, claim victory in 26 consecutive league titles, prompting the CEO to approve a comprehensive evaluation of the entire football department, overseen by outside specialists. The club is one month into a lengthy process aimed at addressing persistent problems both on and off the pitch. The focus is on resolving these issues, and although Issame Charai was appointed as the new assistant a couple of weeks ago, there remains a substantial list of tasks to complete behind the scenes at Ibrox. Boyd expresses that there is no cause for fans to feel optimistic.
