Only time will tell whether Michael Beale has as much faith in the Rangers squad he inherited from Giovanni van Bronckhorst as public utterances would suggest.
Had Beale’s men held onto the lead which existed with 87 minutes of this scrappy Old Firm clash played, the manager would have had cause to scoff at those who insist major surgery is required at Ibrox. The suspicion remains that Beale, now five matches into his tenure, is playing a game of public relations; this Rangers group are serial failures at domestic level. Beale has been brought here to somehow buck that trend.
