Giovanni van Bronckhorst and Rangers are in the firing line again as Hotline contributors queued up to make their feelings known on another poor night in the Champions League. Rangers’ defeat in Naples means they could end up with the worst record in the competition’s group-stage history if they don’t get something against Ajax on Tuesday.
Robert McNab, Dunoon, said: “What another disgrace that was. Gio and Tav were almost celebrating a 3-0 scoreline which was only down to Napoli taking their foot off the gas. Gio has made a lot of mistakes, but he isn’t the biggest issue at Ibrox. The board is. And, in Ross Wilson, we have someone who couldn’t see talent if it jumped up and hit him in the face. Gio will probably lose his job before long, but we will not address the rot and horrendous recruitment until we get rid of this crew. The fans deserve better.”
Robert Livingstone, Palm Beach, said: “Poor defensive marking gave Napoli an early jump out of the starting blocks and Rangers couldn’t recover. No matter the Aberdeen result, a change of management is a must to win the league. Someone ruthless who can turn it all around quickly before it’s too late.”
