Rangers fans all say same thing about Philippe Clement sacking as news confirmed
Rangers fans believe the club simply cannot afford to sack Philippe Clement after they revealed losses of £17.2million.
The Glasgow giants have published their annual accounts and financial statement, disclosing a significant deficit despite achieving a record core revenue of £88.3 million.
These concerning financial records trace back to Michael Beale’s tenure, during which Rangers supported their former manager with numerous signings before ultimately parting ways with him after just one year.
Unhappy with the squad he inherited, the cycle repeated itself when the 50-year-old Belgian took over and the club forked out a further £14million on new players over the summer transfer window.
Operating costs at Ibrox have surged to £110million, with staff costs alone accounting for £61million, as the club struggles to keep pace with arch-rivals Celtic both on and off the pitch.
