Rangers Seize Top Spot in Scottish Premiership, Rohl Remains Unconcerned About Rivals

Rangers head coach Danny Rohl was satisfied as his team went top of the Scottish Premiership for the first time this season with a 4-2 win over Dundee United at Ibrox. It marked the first time Rangers have led the league in two years and eclipsed the 13-point gap they had to make up on Hearts when Rohl replaced Russell Martin in October. The Ibrox side now leads on goal difference but will cede the top spot if Hearts avoid defeat at Livingston on Sunday.

Not that Rohl will be following closely. 'I will do the same as the last matchday,' the Rangers boss said. 'I put my phone off, no ticker... I got a message from my assistant coach saying 'did you see the result?' I said 'no, what happened?' He said 'great result'. So I will do exactly the same and maybe three times in a row it will happen.' Let's see - but I'm not available this time on Sunday.'.
