I don't know how far it's coming down, and this can be tricky to do, but here goes: try using spray adhesive. You need to spray it into the open area and then work the fabric back into place. The glue dries quickly, and that's where it gets tricky- push the fabric back the wrong way, and it looks worse than it does now: FOREVER!

Come on Tim! Remember what my brother did to the Bonneville? It doesn't look "beautiful" but it is a Bronco after all! 
He bought needles and stuck them in the fabric then into the foam (?) roof. It works great and if you ever have a sliver you are all set! No one looks at your roof anyways unless the fabric is hanging down in their face! <img src='http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/4/4_1_72.gif' border=0></a>
That's the only thing that I can think of to do besides what Jeff said. But you would probably have to tear more of your fabric off the get it so you can spray it on. Good luck!

I dont know if its the same in your bronco but... in the f150s the ceiling panel is just cardboard with fabric wrapped around it... i just had to take out the side panels first (couple screws, no big deal). If its the same in the bronco just take it down and use a good adhesive, or you can even re-wrap it in new fabric (staples would work good too). Figured this out when i was hooking up/installing cab marker lights.

Mine was looking pretty ratty so I went to Home Depot and bought a panel of tile board. Used the old headliner for a template and cut a new one out of the tile board with my jig saw. You could also use walnut or any other paneling that approximates or compliments your interior. Worked great and no more loose fabric or sags!
