Philippe Clement's time at Rangers comes to an end... far later than we all expected.

And so has Kris Doolan's at Partick Thistle too. But also in the world of managerial movements, Motherwell welcome Michael Wimmer. And David Gray is essentially a new man at Hibs too these days?!

Jose Mourinho is coming to Ibrox too... but unlikely in that context. Probably just with Fenerbahce in the Europa League.
