Creampuff 22,628 Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Why is it that everyone aggressively desires a manager that has experience of working with absolutely no money? You do realise that our manager will have the biggest/second biggest budget of everyone in the country? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do realise that our manager will have the biggest/second biggest budget of everyone in the country?Think it's because we won't have the budget to even touch the bheasts when we get back so it's going to take someone who is astute in working with tight finances to get us challenging them.I doubt we will have very much to spend at all when we are back and we will require a near 8-9 players to come in who are good enough to make a title challenge.

You do realise that our manager will have the biggest/second biggest budget of everyone in the country?I think any new manager is going to have to work with what he has.We have no money and a load of overpaid players who aren't going to shift easily because they know that they are on the deals of their livesEven if we let the ones who's deals are expiring at the end of this season go I can't see the board sanction like for like replacements in terms of wages on offer.To some of the names mentioned they would still be working with more money than they have ever had before, but to a lot of the names people are throwing about on here what we can offer them in terms of budget probably would be considered next to nothing.

BlueSuedeSambas 54,856 Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 If McCoist does leave I think a lot of people are going to be pretty disappointed and underwhelmed with what we will probably end up with as a replacement. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan_1 1,136 Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Really don't fancy Stuart McCall, not gonna take us forward long term.Actually don't want anyone currently working in Scottish football.For me, someone like Alan Stubbs, someone working down south with a fresh outlook with a point to prove, lot's of new initiative ideas, working at a Club who work with top talents like Stubbs with your John Stones' and Ross Barkley's of the world. Someone that isn't scared to play attacking football. I think that's what the club needs and what we should have went for after Walter left.

Ryan_1 1,136 Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Someone abit left field, been with the club before as an assistant, now forging a career for himself as a manager, would Jan Wouters be out of the realm of possibility? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turnberry18 3,204 Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 It's probably a no hoper, but I'd love to see Mark Hughes as Rangers manager one day. If we were in the Champions League, then I'd like to see that. He under-rated in my opinion, and his whole approach to the game would suit this club.
