Rangers fan shares what Clement was saying to angry supporters outside Ibrox after Old Firm loss

Philippe Clement asked Rangers fans for patience after clashing outside Ibrox following the Old Firm loss to Celtic, one fan has revealed.

Supporters were left raging after a humiliating 3-0 defeat at Parkhead on Sunday 1 September against Celtic.

This saw groups wait for the players outside Ibrox as the players returned after the loss and demanded more from them, resulting in heated exchanges with Clement addressing the fans.

Calling into Clyde 1 Superscoreboard on 2 September, someone who witnessed the altercations up close has shared what was said.

The fan said: “I went up to Ibrox after the game, I wanted something, some form of reaction from them. We were shouting at the gaffer saying ‘This isn’t Rangers, this is a disgrace’ and he was saying to us ‘We just need time and patience’. It’s like, you’ve had all the time in the world.

“[James] Tavernier came out the bus and he called us a disgrace and said ‘you’re supposed to be supporters’. That just kicked off everything; I ripped my season ticket up right in front of him.”

Host Gordon Duncan responded, mocking the fan saying: “How do you rip your season ticket? I thought it was a wee card nowadays. I’ve not had a season ticket in a long time is it not a wee card? How do you rip it?”

The fan in question didn’t have a response to this, immediately hanging up.

The Gers haven’t endured the greatest start to the season, while beginning the campaign at Hampden Park only made the tentativeness from fans even worse.

Being dumped out of the Champions League at the hands of Dynamo Kyiv in controversial circumstances was the icing on the cake.

The cherry on the icing on the cake came as the Light Blues suffered a terrible defeat against Celtic in a terrible performance on the day.

It is always a bad sign for a manager when fans react to a defeat by confronting players and abusing them as they get on the team bus.

This just creates a toxic atmosphere around the club which could spell the end for the Belgian manager, despite signing a new contract over the summer.

It is clear from the fan calling into Clyde 1 that supporters have already reached the end of their tether with Clement and his squad, and a massive improvement is needed after the two-week break.
