Well done Rangers, held their nerve after losing a two nil lead.
Have now beaten Celtic twice in the league but still trail them by 13 points. Clement was, from an Ibrox perspective, clearly kept on too long but is Fergusson the man or another manager who starts well and then falls away.
As for Celtic they will win the league and maybe the treble but it will be harder next season unless they recruit well. The money is there and need to be spent wisely or else Rangers will be breathing down their necks next season.
I‘m sceptical that Ferguson is the man for the job in the long term, but he’s steadying the ship a bit after Clement.
As for today’s match, it was nice to be on the winning end of a late goal at Celtic Park for once! Rangers played really well in the first half but the exertion of Thursday night started to tell in the second half. I definitely expected Celtic to go on and get the winning goal once it got to 2-2 so was thrilled with the final outcome!
Is he though? I'm not sure they're that much different than they were under Clement. He's been in charge for 5 games and they lost 2 of them.
Rangers are always capable of producing in a big game but are still very inconsistent. I feel like they tend to fare better when the pressure is off. Away to Fenerbahce, not many expecting a result, they go there and win. At home to Fenerbahce with 50k fans expecting them to progress, they crumble and scrape through on pens. Away to Celtic, title already done, no one really giving them a prayer, they go there and win.
