Desperate Phil Clement has revealed that his team are four points clear in the Last Six Months SPFL table.
It sounds ominously like the current Ibrox boss is being briefed by the same status that awarded Steven Gerrard the 85 Minutes title while Micky Beale claimed the crown for Level With Celtic after Free Monfs.
After enjoying five months being dubbed A Proper Football Manager it seems that the former Monaco boss is evolving into A Proper Sevco Manager as he clutches at straws as he stares at Celtic in the distance.
? LISTEN: “We took four more points than Celtic. Everybody would’ve signed for that six months ago.”

The purpose of a league table is to reflect performances since the start of a campaign, anyone can clutch at some favourable runs and results but you can’t get away from reality.
Clement will be well aware that his side have only picked up five points from their last five matches- not what the bears were expecting as they prepared to celebrate a Quadruple.
Since he told the Gullible & Deluded that he had got the reaction he wanted in the draw with Dundee the spotlight has turned towards Clement. Dujon Sterling’s comments were much better received.
With five SPFL matches to go Clement is expected to take at least three points more than Celtic- anything less and life will become very uncomfortable for ‘A Proper Football Manager’.
Embarrassing moral and 4 points more than celtic trophies

Another Moral Victory. Scored 3 goals against Celtic, won 4 points more but still 3 points behind. Hun maths.

We define them. Every single manager that comes in to them is utterly obsessed with us.

Remember when Gerrard won the 85 minutes league? There must be something in that old brick propping up the Ibrox roof that sends their managers doolally!!! ?????

Every time he opens his mouth its getting worse.
Even Rangers fans must be getting serious Pedro vibes form him. If he mentions a caravan we’re in the endgame.

You could have beat Celtic at Ibrox(not sure moral victories count), Ross County and Dundee, and be 5 or 6 points ahead now. But ye bottled it .

If he’s feeling the pressure now that a bit of heat is on him wait till he drops more points and his friends in the media turn on him nevermind the peepul , that’s when his feet will really be held to the fire.
Love to see how he copes with just a fraction of the shite BR,s had to endure from day 1.
