WE'LL KEEP WORKING AWAY

Training key to finding solution to Gers' travel woes says Mo

WE'LL KEEP WORKING AWAY

SAME players, different pitch, polar opposite results. Mohamed Diomande is as mystified as any fan over the away day blues that have brought a huge cloud over Rangers' season.

The Ivory Coast international chipped in with a goal as Philippe Clement's side breezed to a 3-1 win over St Johnstone at Ibrox on Sunday.

However, that victory - a 10th from 11 unbeaten home league matches - was secured amid a silent protest and second-half walkout from a section of the fan base over a campaign beset by travel sickness.

Just three Premiership wins from 11 games on the road and 20 points shipped from 33 means Clement's side trail Celtic by 15 with their rivals almost out of sight in the title race.

Last Thursday's dismal draw at Dundee was a fourth trip in succession they have failed to return home with full points after draws with Hibs, Motherwell and a Boxing Day defeat at St Mirren.

Throw in losses at Aberdeen, Kilmarnock and Celtic Park after the opening day draw at Hearts and it is not hard to see the pattern of woe that has killed off any chance of a title party come May.

Victories away to Nice and Malmo in the Europa League have only served to magnify the domestic travel problems, which have piled pressure on Clement.
