With 13 matches left to play Phil Clement’s exciting young side are trailing Celtic by 13 points in the SPFL Premiership.
The former Monaco boss has been in charge at Ibrox for 18 months, despite the promises and fawning media coverage he is not getting any closer to Scotland’s Most Successful Club.
With a run of home fixtures and a rare victory away from home the heat is off Clement who was presented with just a 22-year-old Portuguese defender with less than 20 career appearances the only January addition to his exciting young squad.

Europe again is proving to be a very handy distraction for domestic failings, Clement has mastered that with all sorts of spin applied to results in the Europa League.
A top eight finish has excused Clement’s side a Play Off fixture but also denied the club a £2m plus pay day during the long cold month of February.
Sunday’s Scottish Cup tie at home to Queens Park should be fairly routine Hearts and Kilmarnock away from home on February 16 and 26 pose an ominous threat to the Clement Revolution!

Should Michael Nicholson lead Celtic's Summer 2025 Transfer Window business?
Yes, he has priceless experience, the only man for the job
No, never again, his failings are piling higher and higher
Must be the first time I’ve ever been pleased to see Hearts hit a bit of form, Joe. As long as it’s just the usual temporary variety.
Editor: Not having Neilson or wee Naisy in the dug out could make it interesting.
Oh what’s it called again, “ Austerity “
The Daily Record still saying they had a good January transfer window because Chelsea decided not to move for Jefte ?
Aye they had a good window as well because they signed the boy from Dundee,lol in the Summer.
The Daily (Scummy) Record Just feeds yourself and everyone else that reads it pack after pack after pack after pack of lies Harold…
Not worth the read I’d say !!!
Gap il be 17 by end of Feb MINIMUM! Lg DEFO won b4 the Split where ANY sort of Defeat at the SHIT-DOME after will IGNITE stories of Revolutions, #Gon fur 2 & the OBLIGATORY Close Season Champions BAWAHAHAHAHAHA!!
CELTIC could draw every single game from now to the end of the season and STILL win the league……13 games left 13 points ahead and 29 goal difference…..it won’t happen we will extend our lead….
How does that work then? 13 points versus a possble 39? ??
So the baldy hun scum eejit still trying to use ourselves to keep himself relevant?
Can’t take that we have moved on to far bigger challenges than the Glasgow derby’s regarding importance for ourselves.
They don’t even rank in our top 10 matches this season, and hopefully that remains the future for ourselves also.
Must be cold in our shadow Fillipe Fillop…
What’s he waffaling or wailing about now then !
I had no idea that we have 171 Board members …But it must be correct…’cos they’ve all voted in your poll for Nicholson.
