Had an unbelievable year with Rangers going 12 months unbeaten in the league, has history of working with young players at Liverpool and is a big name that will get plenty of media attention. My over 50s sunday league has more talent than the scottish premiership...and in the grand scheme of things rangers are a very very average footballing side..Gerrard is a very average manager too. So no Thanks in regards to gerrard. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because results don't really transition between clubs. Because the players are different. A great striker or goal keeper will mean your results look a lot better than they should. In potters case they look worse than they should because his best attacking player is meal maupay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also have a mistrust of Purslow/Lange until there is clarity on who hired/fired coaching staff and transfer strategy. Something is iffy for things to turn so quickly! Lange is on borrowed time anyway imo. Be really surprised if he's here next season. Unless we get to the root of a pretty disastrous coaching re shuffle the on field problems will remain.

Keener window-cleaner Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 I guess we have someone lined up, if it was just the loss on Friday then they could have announced it earlier. I guess they used the week end to sound out candidates. I think Purslow and the owners are schrewd calculating people that already have a plan. Also the reasoning that there is an international break now to give the new manager time suggests that it will be a quick appointment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprising really as he distanced himself from the Newcastle job. Is under contract at Rangers , and on easy Street. I would have thought the out of work managers would be shorter odds.
