No need to refresh Michael Beale on the very fine margins that make or break you in Glasgow, he's already done the maths.
The only number that really matters for Rangers isn't sitting well with their new manager. There are nine points between the Ibrox club and their rivals across the city, and he will know it may just take something spectacular to stop Celtic retaining the Premiership title from here.
Beale will have understood that assignment from the moment he returned to Rangers from QPR exactly a month ago, winning all three matches since the league resumed. It's something he believes his team haven't done enough of; putting together a sustained run of victories to really turn up the pressure on Ange Postecoglou's reigning champions.
