Four-star Gers down Hibs

Rangers moved to within a point of Celtic at the top of the Clydesdale Bank Premier League with a convincing 4-0 win against Hibernian - without the help of top goalscorer Nikica Jelavic.

Jelavic missed the clash at Ibrox through illness but skipper Steven Davis netted a double and David Healy and Sone Aluko grabbed a goal apiece against 10-man Hibs.

With rivals Celtic in Scottish Communites League Cup action this weekend, the victory allowed Rangers to give their title hopes a much-needed boost.
