Michael Beale has already said “good riddance” to the 2022/23 season as his Rangers side prepare to finish off a disappointing campaign on a positive note against St Mirren in Paisley.
The Ibrox side looked on course to secure maximum points against Hearts in midweek but a 93rd minute equaliser from Garang Kuol saw the visitors snatch a last-gasp share of the spoils.
