How Rangers Have FELL APART | Explained

16 months ago, it seemed that Rangers had fully returned to their former glory. The previous season, they had gone unbeaten on their way to an historic 55th league title, their first in a decade, and after the departure of manager Steven Gerrard to Aston Villa, replacement Giovanni Van Bronckhorst built further, securing the club its first Scottish Cup since 2009, and guiding them to the Europa League final where they lost on penalties to a strong Eintracht Frankfurt, having beaten Borussia Dortmund, Braga and RB Leipzig to get there.

But since that night in Seville, fortunes have changed on the blue side of Glasgow. Van Bronckhorst was dismissed following a poor start to the following season, and while successor Michael Beale – who had previously been assistant manager during Gerrard’s tenure – improved performances in the second half of the campaign, a nightmare start to the 23-24 season has seen the Englishman relieved of his duties just seven games in. In the words of Joshua Barries, editor of Rangers review, “hope had been drained” out of Ibrox, with the Gers already 7 points behind Celtic in the table, looking on course to miss out on the title once again.
