🔗 Share this article Unbowed Wilfried Nancy insists he is not worried about the sack but supporters show wrath after loss. The under-pressure manager stated he did not fear dismissal, claiming, “The team is really close to things turning around,” even after sliding worryingly close to the exit with a convincing defeat by Rangers. Another Collapse Results in Derby Defeat The home side were in front the visitors at the break but a disastrous second period enabled Rangers to pull level on points with the defending Scottish Premiership champions. Nancy, who was hired in December, has now overseen six losses in eight games. “There is unity with the board,” stated the manager. Questioned about whether he was concerned, Nancy said: “I don’t think about it. I concentrate on finding ways to help my team to improve on details. Fan Fury On Display The fans displayed their anger – directed at the board and manager – by protesting at full time. The hierarchy are reportedly likely to re-appoint the former boss, who enjoyed a successful temporary stint before Nancy was hired, if the Frenchman were sacked. “The outcomes [that leads to pressure]. So this is the reality for the moment. Yet when I say that’s how it is, that is not a sign that I am a defeatist guy. No. The message is we are really close, extremely close to reverse our form.” Nancy’s Persistent Belief The coach remains focused on the fact the side can perform strongly for a half at a time. In fact, if not for poor finishing they would have been greater than 1-0 up. “I saw enough other than the fact that we didn't take more goals,” he said. “I know that we lost, but I must remain fair. “The level we had at certain moments was exceptionally high. That happened. I wouldn't talk like that if it was not the case. Therefore, when it comes to wins, I noted it's a repeating pattern. For that reason I believe we are nearly there to a shift in fortunes. Right now: the fine margins.” “I saw many, many good things that we did, once more. But now it’s about performing for 90 minutes. My narrative would not be the same. Therefore I firmly believe the team can to turn things around.” Röhl’s Cautious Response Danny Röhl was cautious about a championship push even after what seemed like a huge result. “Step by step, then we can really build up momentum,” he said. “The confidence in the team is outstanding.”
