Rangers brutally trolled by Steve Clarke’s SON after shock Scottish Cup defeat to Queen’s Park
He's not the first to take the chance for a pot shot at the beleaguered Ibrox men
IT was another dark day for Rangers as they suffered a shock Scottish Cup exit at the hands of Championship side Queen's Park.
And others have been quick to pour salt onto the gaping wounds of the Ibrox men.

First, the Queen's Park players celebrated their victory by blaring a favourite tune of CELTIC supporters in the dressing room.
The defeat was a damaging one for Rangers boss Philippe Clement, and SunSport columnist Kris Boyd has called for the Belgian to lose his job in the wake of the loss, whilst Bill Leckie claimed there was more passion in QP penalty hero Calum Ferrie's FINGER than in the entire Gers team.
And now they've suffered a round of trolling from Scotland manager Steve Clarke's SON.
Clarke was in charge of Kilmarnock prior to taking the national team job and guided them to Europe in his final season in charge, signing off with a 2-1 victory over Gers at Rugby Park.

Clarke famously took a parting shot at the travelling support in his farewell speech to the Killie fans, saying: "I'm telling you now as I stand here in front of three stands with Kilmarnock supporters: bye bye Rangers."
And Clarke's son John has taken to X, formerly Twitter, to post a screenshot of his old man waving to the Gers fans with those last three words brutally included in the picture.
Meanwhile, Queen's Park's keeper Ferrie has revealed his thought process during his heroic penalty save.
The 26-year-old plunged to deny James Tavernier from the spot, before tipping away Robin Propper's header from the resulting corner to see out the win.

"The boys were unbelievable for 90 minutes, they threw everything at us in those last ten minutes and the boys were cramping up because the tempo was so quick.
"[Tavernier] is so good at penalties, and he really mixes it up, he goes right, left, everywhere, and puts so much pace on it.
"I changed my mind, I was going to go right but I thought 'no, go left.'
"Then it went to VAR and I can't even say my emotions during that."
