Pedro is taking his actual assistant with him so I imagine whoever comes in will be what Durrant was under the Smith regime. So effectively a cone? standing hands in pockets with a beanie hat on? I'll do it. lidorfc and philiprfc 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone like a Jim Duffy but obviously not him. Think how helpful Walter Smith was to Souness when he arrived. Whatever happened to Billy Reid who used to manage Hamilton??

wilberforce1 605 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Got a feeling that if Neil McCann was named as local assistant, Barry Ferguson's heid would explode, Scanners style. His rant about Pedro's appointment should seal his fate. I hope. Gazza2258 and siddiqi_drinker 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Wouldn't want Ferguson at Ibrox. He thought he was Mr Rangers and turned the team against PLG. I don't trust him and he would just get in Caixinhas way. BF blew it with his attitude years ago. It should be someone with at least some experience. So therefore not Miller either. Folk suggesting him are just clueless fantasists with short memories who are putting their emotional attachments before the Club's well being. If it's going to be someone already associated with us then I'd give it to Murty he's done well as interim manager and it could be argued that he can change a game better than MW can Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Reformation Bear 6,453 Posted March 14, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted March 14, 2017 Miller would be my choice. He knows the Club, the squad, the teams in Scotland, and has recent experience of playing against all the other clubs. Would give him time to complete his coaching badges. Maybe he'd be a player / assistant for a season then transition over fully to assistant / coach. He can deal with the media when needed and - much more importantly - gets the importance of success to Rangers and to the Support. He'd learn a bit from Pedro and his team about their management methods and coaching methods. Which may be very useful not just for Miller himself but for the Club at the point in time in the future when Pedro decides to move on. The point being that the assistant can then step into the manager shoes if needed and provide a continuity which was very evidently lacking when the last management team abandoned ship so suddenly forcing an inadequately experienced Murty into an emergency interim role.

AljayBoy 2,298 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 If Miller's open to a player/assistant role then I'd be happy with that. As previously mentioned he knows the Scottish game and our club, and could be an option from the subs bench - depends on whether he's up for it i suppose.

graeme_4 34,527 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 If I was to guess I'd say Ferguson or Rae as external appointments. Internally, it could be Miller or Murty. Wouldnt surprise me if it was someone totally from left field like Christian Dailly or Ian Murray. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
