Bullish Nancy insists he is not worried about the sack however supporters show wrath after loss.

The under-pressure manager declared he had no concerns about dismissal, claiming, “The team is extremely close to changing our fortunes,” in the wake of sliding worryingly close to the exit with a convincing loss to the Ibrox side.

Another Meltdown Results in Old Firm Loss

The Hoops were ahead Rangers at the break but a collapse after the break enabled Rangers to pull level on points with the current league title holders. The French coach, who was brought in from the MLS, has now presided over six defeats in eight games.

“There is unity at the club,” stated the manager.

Pressed on the speculation, the 48-year-old replied: “That’s not my focus. I think about finding ways to help my team to excel on the fine details.

Fan Fury Outside Parkhead

The fans voiced their fury – aimed at the hierarchy – by protesting at full time. Club directors are reportedly likely to return to the interim manager, who had a fruitful caretaker period previously, if Nancy departs.

“The outcomes [that leads to pressure]. And that’s the truth for the moment. Yet when I say this is the reality, that is not a sign that I am pessimistic. No. What I mean we are on the cusp, really, really close to change the narrative.”

Focus on the Details

Nancy remains focused on the fact his team play well for 45 minutes at a time. Indeed, but for missed chances they could have been more than 1-0 up. “The performance had merit other than the fact that we didn't take more goals,” he said. “I know that we lost, but it's important to stay objective.

“The performance we had at stages was exceptionally high. That happened. I could not say that if it was not the case. But that’s why, when it comes to wins, I noted we've seen this before. That’s why I said that we are nearly there to getting it right. Right now: small things.”

“We produced plenty of positives that we did, like today again. But now comes down to sustaining it. My narrative would change the same. This is why I am a big believer the team can to fix this.”

The Rangers Boss Response

Rangers manager was cautious about a championship push even after what felt like a statement victory. “We take it game by game, and we can develop a challenge,” he said. “The faith in the group is excellent.”
