‘Time for real leadership’: Rangers supporters group ask for Clement’s dismissal

A Rangers supporters group have released a statement calling for Philippe Clement to be relieved from his duties IMMEDIATELY as they warn about the "long-term implications" of failing to do so. 

The Rangers manager has overseen a run of results that’s resulted in the Ibrox club falling 15 points behind Celtic in the Scottish Premiership standings.

Fed-up fans demanded Clement was shown the door with explicit chanting following the 1-1 draw against Dundee on Thursday night. 

But despite the unpleasantly Dens Park exchange, the Belgian insisted that he still had "200 per cent" backing from the Rangers board.

And that's proved the final straw for The Rangers Supporters Association.

An angry social media post said: "The RSA calls on the club to take decisive action and relieve the current manager of his duties. 

"We understand the implications of making this change, doing nothing is not an option and will only further damage the club in the longer term.

"This is a time for real leadership from our new Chairman and Chief Executive.

“Perhaps also some of our more long standing board members/investors also reflect on their role in relation to the club’s current position on and off the park. 

"Stronger Together."
