A Gallant Pioneer 555 Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 As coach it was said, Weir was also talking about scouts, Lee could be set to spearhead a scouting team or he could come back as a player. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

weshallnotbemoved! 714 Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Weir said discussions had taken place but nothing confirmed. How does that equate to him not coming back at all? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie0202 12,220 Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Weir said discussions had taken place but nothing confirmed. How does that equate to him not coming back at all? The club have also yet to decide on a new club captain, with Weir revealing Lee McCulloch will not be returning to the club either as a player or in a coaching capacity. Weir, a former club captain himself, said: "We've had discussions but nothing has been confirmed there. "It's obviously an important appointment, especially at a football club like this. It's something that's got to be taken seriously." One man who could be in the frame for that role is Wilson, who said it would be a "great honour" to be given the armband. Wilson said: "I've been captain before and I know as captain you need players around you that will help you. Whoever the captain is I'll make sure I'm there to support them. That's an extract from the BBC article. I read it as nothing is confirmed regarding a captain but discussions have taken place. The article is horribly structured by the BBC but that's how I see it. No quote from Davie Weir regarding Jig but I I think the first line of what I've quoted will be accurate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HuistraHairDo 12,489 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I don't get the negativety towards McCulloch, his playing days are more than likely over (37/38??) and last season was maybe one too far, but what he has contributed to Rangers should be applauded, our fans have short memories he was part of the glue that held us together in darker times, plus his goals for us who could forget that bullet header he scored against the micks? He has played at the top level of football for 20 years and Imo he should be given a role at Ibrox for his experience alone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheQueensEleven 1,355 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Weir said discussions had taken place but nothing confirmed. How does that equate to him not coming back at all?No, if you watched the interview, what he actually said was that he had talked to McCulloch (because he knows him) but nothing to do with Rangers.

And btw you don't forget how to be a good player.By your reckoning then we shouldn't have Davie Weir as a coach because he has no experience?? Dont be silly.I Mentioned that goal for the sheer joy it brought to many of us including McCulloch. ppl are quick on here to slag the man off because he was payed well, (although no mention of the pay cut he took, or one of the first to tupe) imo he was worth every penny.

He won the league doesn't make him an experienced coach. You were one of the first to call McCoist a rookie (long time ago) who needed experience even though he had been in the same roll as Davie is now (assistant to Walter) for longer than Weir. I would still say McCoist is not an experienced coach.Arsene wenger, Walter Smith, Alex Ferguson, Dick Advocatt, now thats experience in football. everybody has to start somewhere why not give McCulloch a chance? He has 20 years of top level experience, he wont have forgot how he was trained from some of the top coaches in Britain. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep digging though, it's quite amusing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep digging though, it's quite amusing.you can butter it up however you like but Davie Weir is not an expeirienced coach, he is cutting his teeth, a rookie, he has only just done his coaching badges lol if you think thats an expeirienced coach then you and I live in a different football world. You ve made a cunt of it and its you whos digging bud.I never compared anyone to anyone, you said we need experience I pointed out Weir is not an expeirienced coach as an example.My whole point in posting was pointing out why our so called fans see McCulloch in such a negative light, ppl posting comments saying "he has bled the club dry" Seeing we are talking about Weir, why did Everton take Davie on as a coach when he was starting GF?? My guess would be his experience as a top class player.Why let McCulloch go to somewhere like killie when he can learn from the best in Scotland?
