Rangers\u00a0took the decision to sack Michael Beale on Sunday following his poor start to the Scottish Premiership season.<\/p>\n
Saturday’s 3-1 defeat to Aberdeen, their third in only seven league games, was greeted with boos by the Ibrox crowd with Beale’s popularity at an all time low.<\/p>\n
The 43-year old arrived with the reputation of a talented coach who had been the brains behind Steven Gerrard’s Scottish title triumph but he has failed to produce a side to excite the supporters and challenge rivals Celtic who are seven points clear at the top of the table already.<\/p>\n
With the atmosphere around Ibrox increasingly toxic, Rangers’ board came to the conclusion that Beale’s tenure should be brought to an end on Sunday evening with a formal announcement expected.<\/p>\n
‘Everyone realises where we are, the standard and results need to be better,’ the Rangers boss added on Sportsound.<\/p>\n

Michael Beale has been sacked as Rangers boss after a poor start to the season<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Rangers have lost three of their opening seven games and were booed at Ibrox during Saturday’s 3-1 loss to Aberdeen<\/p>\n
‘We can’t hide behind the fact that we won four games because today wasn’t good enough.<\/p>\n
‘We had enough opportunities to win it then we end up getting beat by a scoreline we should never lose by here at Ibrox off a team like Aberdeen.’<\/p>\n
Rangers are seven points behind Premiership leaders Celtic, who won at Motherwell in thrilling fashion on Saturday.<\/p>\n
Brendan Rodgers’ side scored what looked like a late winner through Luis Palma in the 87th minute, but it was not quite so simple.<\/p>\n
Blair Spittal equalised for Motherwell in the fifth minute of stoppage time \u2014 only for Celtic to charge down the other end and win it through Matt O’Riley.<\/p>\n
