What now for Rangers and Clement after cup shock?
In a normal time, in a season where the league has long been a failure, the embarrassing cup beat the lower opposition at home, marking the end of the Rangers manager.
In normal times, that guy in Ibrox Hotseat will not be able to survive Govan’s defeat to Queens Park. When this means the only realistic opportunity for domestic silverware is to surface in the smoke.
So why is Philippe Clement still working?
Because this is not the normal time for Rangers.
Two managers have been fired before the Belgians were appointed, and those who run the club hope to be stable.
It seems too early for Clement to extend his contract earlier this season. However, this has a purpose. James Bisgrove, Stewart Robertson and John Bennett to name just a few – Continuity and consistency are short-lived .
The new CEO Patrick Stewart is not going to stabilize on the ship, but to completely reintegrate it and make it properly sea.
Good performance against Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League and the Celtics in the League Cup final were a week before Stewart served as the post office, but the league points were on the way to St. Mirren, Motherwell, Heber S and Dundee lost the game on the road, with a firm victory on January 2.
So, is the CEO making Clement blurt out or throwing him to another lifeline?
