‘Same excuses every time’ Ibrox fans finally turn on Gerrard

Unless he hit the M74 southbound last night after the defeat from Aberdeen Steven Gerrard will find no hiding place from last night’s Scottish Cup defeat.

Having bought into the hype and sent the wage bill soaring the former Liverpool youth coach has to pick up the pieces of another season that has failed to deliver.

The Brownie Points of reaching the group phase of the Europa League are fading as rapidly as hopes of winning a trophy with Aberdeen bringing a halt to hopes of delivering the Betfred or Scottish Cup.

Gerrard has carefully kept a distance from all of the humiliating defeats with his players firmly in the firing line after every set-back.

At the start of the season the current Ibrox boss gave the captaincy to serial failure James Tavernier with Daniel Candeias, Alfredo Morelos and Ryan Jack all given roles to play with true blue Andy Halliday also kept on to play his part in the latest revolution.

Without Champions League money, Moussa Dembele and Brendan Rodgers Celtic would be vulnerable to the world class young manager installed at Ibrox.

Reality bites today, it’s never pretty but Gerrard is set to join Mark Warburton and Pedro Caixinha on the scrapheap with only the timing and wording of his departure to be finalised.
