Rangers manager Graeme Murty praises fans for their help, and says the Glasgow side must give them more to cheer.

Rangers manager Graeme Murty is seen during the Scottish Cup Quarter final match between Rangers and Hamilton Academical at Ibrox Stadium on March 4, 2017 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Rangers caretaker boss Graeme Murty has praised the support given by the away fans as the Gers pulled off an impressive win at Easter Road.

Rangers came from behind to record a 2-1 victory over Hibernian, with Murty’s men earning their fourth victory in a row.

Murty told Rangers’ official website that he feels the team need to give the fans more reason to be encouraged, despite the win.

Murty said: “They were immense, and they were challenged in the first half. Then, with one bit of play, we scored a goal, and with our second bit of good play, we scored another goal which shows the players when we do pass the ball properly, we can open teams up, and we have threats on the pitch.

“But, we have to get them involved and have to give them something to cheer about. The supporters have been amazing, but we need to do more for them.”

The way Rangers came from behind should give a lot of encouragement to fans, that this team under Graeme Murty will not simply wilt when they concede a goal.

Murty is capable of scheming and adapting his gameplan to the circumstances, with his early tactics dealt a blow by Kenny Miller’s injury.

Goals from Josh Windass and Alfredo Morelos helped the Gers bounce back from an early Bruno Alves error, as they maintained their spot in second place in the table.
