cushynumber 25,178 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 if he is going back to work, I would much rather see him at Ibrox - make Murty his No 2 to take some of the load Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwhiteandblue 3,330 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 3 hours ago, K.A.I said: If he took that job it would be a slap in the face to the Rangers fans for more than one reason ... not just because of the way we've been treated by Scottish football but the fact that we need him back here desperately but don't persue it or pressure him into it because we assume he wants to enjoy his retirement away from football with nothing to prove. He'd go right down in my estimation if he took that position on. I would agree with you if it was a club team, but it's a part time job which would let him do a bit of the job he loves and no doubt misses. Speaking of misses, I reckon his answer will be down to what his Mrs says. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack The Flipper 5,936 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Fucking shite if he goes there and doesn't come near us, arguably the only person I'd have complete confidence in sorting this mess out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyBlue 17,115 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I'd be distraught if he got the Scotland gig on the basis we didn't call on him due to letting him enjoy his retirement. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyBlue 17,115 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Thinking about it, if these links to the Scotland job is true, surely this is the EXACT moment to approach him if he is considering any job. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warburton, Pedro and Murty have all said this. Scotland's next competitive match - September 2018. There is no comparison whatsoever between the two jobs.

Bluepeter9 5,167 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Funny how folk would turn on Walter if he took the job! Sad fucks! He wont take it as he has retired but if he did it would be a great move for Scotland. I note Alex Mcleish is also on the list of 8. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd go right down in my estimation if he took that position on. True in regards to the way they treated us. But an international manager is under a lot less stress than a club manager, especially now that Scotland haven't got any meaningful games in the near future. Can't blame a guy about to turn 70 for not wanting the Rangers job, too much expectation and the stress that comes with that Honestly think the SFA just want to appoint him to save face just now, and get the Chief Exec position sorted before appointing a more long term manager.

Alex McLeish has been whooring himself about for all sorts of jobs past 18-months so the situations are different - McLeish feels he's plenty to prove, Walter literally has nothing to prove - Walter has commented on speculation before about coming back to us with snippets about he doesn't want any managers job again (as The Mighty Bears pointed out earlier) so for him to go back on that, when we need him most and to that mob is a betrayal to me. I wouldn't turn on him but I'd lose a lot of respect for him. He wouldn't be getting abuse off me for it but I'd be dissapointed in him and I'd mention it on here constantly and any time my heart felt fit to do so. You've nailed your colours to the mast plenty that you care about the SNP and the Scotland team more than you do Rangers anyway so you've everything to gain from this shite.

This a lot less stress line and part time hours line that's appearing is making me sick too. It's as if people are making excuses for if it happens and trying to rationalise/justify it.

For me Walter has always been a man of integrity and it's why I respect him so much. He represent everything good about our club. If he were to become the Scotland manager then he'd lose his integrity in my eyes. After everything the SFA has done to us the only way id accept this is if there was a change in the sfa from top to bottom, where we were no longer treated like second class citizens in our own country. If he takes the job under the current regime then he'd lose his legendary status with me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not making excuses for it, and certainly don't want it to happen, just trying to think about what his reasoning would be for taking it over the Rangers job, if we ever even asked him to. Never been a fan of Scotland, or any international football, but Walter going there to manage a few friendlies wouldn't tarnish my view of the guy in any way.

Loyaleastend 3,260 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 A bullshit story leaked by the filth press to give the false impression of "old firm" parity in the search for the right man, there is no way the last dickhead was allowed to leave without liewell already having his man lined up and you can bet your mortgage he'll be filth friendly whoever he is.
