STEPPS BOY 73,915 Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 No, he’s in with the bricks at Ibrox and as a business his European success and the income it’s brought in has been brilliant. If we don’t win the league this year though then we wont stop 10 in a row. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll forget about us losing a cup final to a goal that should never have stood. They'll have ignored the fact that it was a 4 year project / contract signed in 2018, extended by 2 years in Dec which most seemed happy with. The stats which will probably show points increase in the league year on year will be ignored. Oh and most importantly there'll be few names suggested to who could replace him and deny SG a 3rd year, whilst being given a one season hit to stop 10. Yes he's been backed but he started in a god awful position. Hes been backed but still spent less than the mob across the city on signings, still spends less on salaries, can barter for loans whilst they can afford 15m players to come in. He started with minimal experienced internationalists compared to them. All whilst trying to make cheaper players do the hardest thing which as Walter said is having the mentality to win a league (something the scum have built up in abundance in our years in lower leagues). If you were reviewing a neutral league, given these circumstances, would you think it right the 2nd top team talked of sacking their manager after 18/24 months, or is it just because its us? So for me it's still about the rate of progress the team and Gerrard are making, and I'm pretty convinced even without trophies he'll get a 3rd year from me. I think it's the best solution to stop their 10. If he cant overcome the odds and win the league (tbh that's what itll come down to for me not cups) then we'll have given him his opportunity I'll likely question then whether it's time. But not before then if I'm still seeing progress which I am (I'm not saying enough, nor in all areas) this season. Some people are just unlucky.

However this is Rangers and certain standards must be met. If Gerrard goes two seasons without silverware, next season the only way to keep his job will be to stop 10 in a row imo.

He needs to sort out what's gone wrong since the break though, he should have learned from last season but unfortunately it seems like he hasn't. There's a great manager in there. I know there is. If he can't see what's wrong he's blind. Yes there is a manager in there, but suffering from a bad case of denial in playing favourites and no plan B. Needs to get tough. No pals in defeat.

fin8577 402 Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I think if we don't win anything which now is a high possibility then he is in trouble. will they sack him? I doubt it due to SG signing a new contract recently but they will need to make some sort of change to get us to the point we need to be Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hypothesis again. Theres nothing I've seen or heard or read to suggest he'd be off in a shot if offered a PL job. I've read stuff to the contrary.

Agreed, i said at the start of the season this is our last chance to stop them before 10 and we’ve completely fucked it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the old guard 2,323 Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Not a chance, we've only dropped twelve points all season and we were unlucky /robbed of the league cup, we've qualified from a tough group in Europe, add that to he's only been here for a season and a half and that puts the question to bed, he needs to sort out the consistency for the full season, you can't have a bad month and win the league when it's a two horse race imo.

Bluenose-11 196 Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Yes. It simply has to be. I like Gerrard a lot but you don’t get 2 years at this club not winning a thing whilst celtic win everything in site. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertent 2,081 Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 He should, but as he keeps shit from the bridge builders he wont. Same mistakes repeated and no plan B, sounds like the breadman.

eejay the dj 31,964 Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I still can't get my head around Ojo coming on to help as get the points .

Shocking management It's still making me livid , thinking about the continuing same mistakes he makes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
