Rangers board face 'ultimate test' over Gio van Bronkhorst as former Celtic man makes future call

Charlie Nicholas reckons the Rangers board will show patience with Giovanni van Bronckhorst and he WON'T be sacked.

The Dutchman is under increased pressure after a string of poor results and performances. They've dropped home points to Livingston, lost to St Johnstone at McDiarmid Park and shared the spoils with St Mirren in Paisley in a run that has left them trailing Ange Postecoglou and his Celtic side by nine points at the top of the Premiership.

The World Cup winter break is now in full swing with Rangers' next competitive game not until December 15. This period will allow the Light Blues to regroup, get injured players back and do plenty of work on the training pitch for the second half of the season. Nicholas concedes Van Bronckhorst and co won't catch the champions now but they still have the chance of Champions League next season, with two places up for grabs.
