Rangers fans have reacted to the sacking of Giovanni van Bronckhorst with many thanking him for the Europa League run last season.
The Dutchman has officially been axed by the club with the Light Blues releasing a statement on Monday morning. The decision comes with recent results not meeting expectations of the board, supporters and the manager. Dropped home points to Livingston was followed up with defeat at St Johnstone and a share of the spoils with St Mirren pre-World Cup shutdown. That poor run has left the Ibrox men trailing Ange Postecoglou and Celtic at the Premiership summit by nine points after just 15 games.
The fan pressure was growing on the Rangers boss in recent weeks with performances both domestically and in Europe not meeting the high standards expected. The Champions League campaign ended with six defeats from six games against Liverpool, Napoli and Ajax and the unwanted tag as the 'worst ever' group stage team in history. Injuries have been a major issue at the club this campaign with the likes of Connor Goldson, Tom Lawrence, John Souttar, Filip Helander and Ianis Hagi all long-term absentees.
