PromDeAnglais 5,689 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 End of November. If the gap is still 6 points or more and we get beat at Tynecastle (prediction is we will). That'll be all from Ally. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Godfather 72,569 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 The longer we leave it the harder it's going to be to do anything of note next season (that's if coco even get's us there in the first place).He should have gone ages ago and gave The Rangers a fighting chance, sadly self importance and a greed for the £ have clouded this mans judgement.Shame on you Ally!

PRW. 5,631 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 It became too late near enough 2 years ago unfortunately.Agreed. Such massive oppertunitys for change have been missed, the later we leave it the greater the damage becomes and the longer it will take to amend.

BlueSuedeSambas 54,341 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 It's at a critical point now IMO.As I said in another thread I think not winning at Tynecastle will be the tipping point where the support becomes more vocal in their desire for change and it will be forced then, but at that point they could be 10 or 12 points clear which would make it nearly impossible for us to claw that back, even with a change in manager.Being 6 behind I think that if we make a change now we can still claw it back. However I suspect nothing will happen until that game in November because we will wait to see how they do in their upcoming games because the mentality at the club will be that they have a couple of potential banana skins and we could close the gap during that period, even though that's an unlikely outcome.At this stage of the season we shouldn't be relying on favours from other teams, the fact we already are sums up how shit this campaign has been so far Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiogh 178 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 He should have gone after the challenge cup final defeat: Anyone that couldn't get a group of players up for a cup final and doesn't see he is harming the club is no Rangers manager.

Fiogh 178 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 That's seems to have been the tipping point for a lot of people who were strong supporters of McCoist.I had always defended him until then, but he knows that this is a club that HAS to win cup finals and high pressure games. That final was just depressing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasper Blues 500 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Depends on the result on 22nd November.A negative result should mean he goes at 5pm on that day.A positive result should mean he gets till 5.30 on that day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the question is, how far behind and how many games before the Board decide the money to sack him is worth less than the risk of failing to gain promotion. I'd say 9 points and Christmas.

j1mgg 3,766 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 I think 10th of December will be the latest, and that would be with a new manager brought in swiftly. Would give them time to see the team and possibly make a change or 2 in januray. Even then we would probably have to rely on hearts dropping points.

Guardian 4,281 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 It should be now for many reasons.We have still to face the better teams away.A new manager needs time to assess his squad before the transfer window opens. Remember he needs to build a team for the top league with probsbly not s great deal of money.He also needs time to change the team which may lose points. These need to be made up.We will at best tread water until Ally is gone. Nobody but Ally thinks he should be there.The longer this goes on, the more money is drained from the club by Ally and his sidekicks.It is inevitable so it should be done now. I can only think the club cant afford it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beast 9,246 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 We're into damage limitation mode now. Things will never improve until McCoist and his cronies have gone and the old-pals Rangers-men mentality is well and truly dumped.I would prefer our next manager to have no previous connection to the club.

I agree that when Ally et al are gone, we might be in a position to consolidate with a new non Rangers management team and a new defence a la Souness era.
