Rangers fans are getting antsy after three days of radio silence following the Scottish Cup disaster-class against Queen’s Park.
The Gers support are coming to terms with the shock Scottish Cup exit which effectively ends the club’s domestic season in a competitive sense before the cards are posted on Valentine’s Day.
Rangers fans are also beginning to turn off in their numbers with a Celtic procession towards a sixth treble in nine years well underway.
There have been calls aplenty for Philippe Clement’s head at Rangers and fans are awaiting communication from the club.
But with the anger continuing to rise ever since Sunday’s debacle, a tumbleweed is blowing across Rangers’ official social media channels and website.
Rangers make fans wait on Philippe Clement update
Rangers fans have taken to social media in their numbers to demand some kind of communication over the present situation at Ibrox.
A lack of communication led to pundits incorrectly suggesting Rangers cannot afford to pay Philippe Clement off, with claims the manager was on £50k per week later debunked.
The information vacuum has allowed anger to fester and now Rangers supporters want a coherent message about the club’s current directions from the higher-ups.
The pressure is now spreading to the Rangers board and new CEO Patrick Stewart, who is finding out quickly what life can be like in the Ibrox pressure cooker.
With the radio silence continuing into a third day, Rangers are under pressure to address supporters over the direction the club is heading.
Rangers fans furious at Ibrox ‘radio silence’
Here are a selection of posts from social media platform X.
One fan claims that ‘hiding under the bed isn’t leadership’ and has urged the Rangers board to ‘face the music’ one way or another.
Another described the situation as a ‘PR shambles’ claiming that the atmosphere online has now swirled into a ‘raging tornado’.
One claims that ‘saying nothing is what they’re good at’ whilst one despondent supporter suggested the regime’s behaviour displays ‘contempt for the fans’.
Ultimately, one fan reckons that the radio silence is ‘harmful to the club/fan relationship’.
One Twitter user sums up how many are feeling by quoting Sean of the Dead, where the characters hatch a plan to go to the local pub and wait for the apocalypse to ‘blow over’.
