Philippe Clement is a Rangers sucker as Hotline warned Ibrox gig comes with only ONE guarantee

The search for the next Rangers manager is drawing to a close but some fans aren't happy at the prospect it could be Philippe Clement.

Jim McClean, Rothesay, said: "Hotline caller Alan Flett's comments about Steve Clarke becoming the next Rangers manager make me wonder what planet he's been on for the last few years. Clarke is a very shrewd and clever man, to think he would be daft enough to take the Rangers job is beyond belief after he said goodbye to them at Rugby Park."

If the new man loses against Celtic in January then he'll already be on a shoogly peg."
