GersInCanada 7,775 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 I have long argued against DM. Did not rule himself out a few days ago. Truth is we have almost no idea who will be the next Rangers manager. For me we have a big game on Sunday and that is where our focus has to be.

To Be A Ranger 4,032 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 If you were manager of a side, but had to face a team you were moving to, would you be going mental at the sidelines if losing? Or would you just sort of blame the players. Select your team, bark a few orders, and change it around maybe, but probably sort of glad your new team won the points. So if he is actually coming here I wouldnt expect him to be 100% driving his side forward. They will be going for revenge on Sunday though.

He' still their manager just now and is obviously going to remain commited to them until he has new employers. Any change from him in charge of them would be a lack of integrity in my opinon. And integrity is something I'm sure we all want the next manager to have. Also, while it probably shouldn't have an effect, I'd say McInnes probably wants to do really well against us in these 2 games as it would help solidify his chances of coming here (assuming he wants it which I think he probably does). 2 defeats on the other hand could have an opposite effect.

I'm not one that finds our current situation in any way acceptable but I've accepted we fucked it something serious and we'll probably have to settle for securing second place for awhile. I don’t want mccinnes either as it’s a cheap option and another gamble which I’m scunnerred with but we will be 2nd on Sunday and at the end of season which unfortunately is last in Scotland.

MurrayWilson 3,374 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 I'm not convinced I really want Mcinnes as Rangers manager and its got nothing to do with how Aberdeen played the other night. What worried me more was the interview he gave when they were brushed aside the other week from celtic. What he effectively said was that there was nothing he could do in a tactical sense that would have altered anything because the celtic players are that much better than his. Even if its true that's something you shouldn't be saying, it gives youre players the impression that getting beat is excusable. Certainly its not something he would get away with saying as a manager here. The problem is though that he may be the best manager we can currently get realistically.

I think we will see a big drop in attendances and as he drowns under the pressure and inevitable poor results there would be another big drop and i am not sure our club will come back from another managerial disaster.

JCS 649 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Maybe the press speculation is wrong (again) and we're really chasing some other 'in situ' manager but, if not, and we are actually about to open negotiations for McInnes, then......I DESPAIR! I had hoped that the whole McInnes saga had died with his pronouncement last week that he 'wasn't going anywhere' and that he was committed to the Sheep. I thought we'd dodged that particular 'bullet' for good and all! I refuse to believe that there is no other experienced managerial talent out there. There must be someone who does not accept that second place in the SPFL is inevitable - that to finish second to celtic every season Is, in fact, a triumph! McInnes is second rate, with a second place mentality in a second rate league. If we can't find someone better than him, then we truly are well on the road to utter obscurity!
