Michael Beale SACKED by Rangers as Aberdeen defeat the final straw for beleaguered boss

dailyrecord.co.uk

Michael Beale has been sacked as Rangers boss after less than a year in charge at Ibrox and just seven games into the Scottish Premiership season.

The Englishman paid the price after a defeat at home to Aberdeen left them seven points off the title pace with three losses in the opening seven games.

Rangers also lost their first derby with Celtic and their opening league fixture at Kilmarnock. They looked to have quietened the early crisis mode with a string of wins but a 2-1 defeat to the Dons at Ibrox brought it all back to the fore.

And the early season struggles have seen the Ibrox board act swiftly rather than risk the damage getting worse as they pulled the trigger on the 43-year-old.
