Peter Grant believes Rangers made a big mistake by sacking Giovanni van Bronckhorst in November 2022.
The Dutchman was succeeded by Michael Beale in the dugout, but that didn’t last long, and subsequently the Light Blues appointed Philippe Clement a little over a year ago.
As things stand, the Belgian manager is struggling, and questions are being raised about his future at the club.
On the Go Radio Football Show [1 November], Paul Cooney mentioned that the previous managers were dismissed around the same time of the season, but Grant interrupted when Bronckhorst’s name was brought up.
“Biggest mistake, biggest mistake,” he said.
Barry Ferguson added: “There were a couple of tough results. I thought it was harsh on Gio, I did say at the time.
“I think Gio is a good manager. He showed that previously at Feyenoord. He’s been over in Besiktas and he’s doing pretty decent.”
Rangers are struggling under Philippe Clement
Clement’s arrival saw an end to the tumultuous time Gers had under Beale, who had lost to the likes of Celtic and Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership at the start of last season before being sacked.
The former Monaco head coach has had a similar record in the current campaign, and it’s not surprising that fans are demanding a change in the dugout.
On the contrary, Bronckhorst had the Bears sitting in a more comfortable position before being sacked, and it’s fair to say that the manager who won the Scottish Cup and took us to the Europa League final was judged harshly.
While Clement also has a trophy at Rangers in his bag, the Belgian seems out of his depth right now, and his statements in the post-match interview after the 2-1 loss to Aberdeen on 30 October were embarrassing.
While Bronckhorst had his fair share of struggles, he was arguably a better manager than Clement, and many fans would perhaps rather see the Dutchman come back than stick with the current predicament.
