Barry Ferguson has called on the Rangers board to give Giovanni van Bronckhorst some proper backing in the January transfer window if they decide to stick by the Dutchman.
The Light Blues gaffer has come under increased fan pressure following a string of poor performances and results this campaign. The Champions League bid ended in disaster with the Ibrox men picking up the unwanted tag as the 'worst ever' group stage team following a -20 goal difference in a section with Liverpool, Napoli and Ajax.
Domestically, things have not been much better of late with dropped home points against Livingston and a defeat at St Johnstone - that sparked a furious reaction from the travelling support who confronted skipper James Tavernier after the game to get an answer to what has been going on of late. Van Bronckhorst revealed in his press conference a couple of days back - despite trailing Celtic by seven points in the title race - that he not spoken to any member of the board in the wake of the Perth defeat, and in Fergie's mind that means he is staying put.
