Gio van Bronckhorst has never had the dreaded tap on the shoulder as a manager but he knows in this game it’s certain to come one day. He’s determined it won’t happen at Rangers though.
The Ibrox boss is well aware the axe man is never far away from the men in the dugout and the point landed close to home with his Light Blue predecessor Steve Gerrard getting jottered at Aston Villa this week. Van Bronckhorst feels sympathy for the title winning Gers hero but he’s got his own issues to deal with back in Glasgow.
Like the calls from some Rangers fans for him for similar action to be taken in Govan after early season frustration boiled over at the end of the dour Dundee League Cup win the other night. Van Bronckhorst can – understandably – point to some facts. Gers are just two points off the top of the table and in the last four in the Premier Sports Cup.
