bennybongo 110 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 No. We will need 2 or 3 years to rebuild. We have no money, owe a hell of a lot, and have big earners who will be leaving. I can't see it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clemdog 39,389 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Absolutely impossible to say. It'll be a completely different squad and likely to be a different Management team. One thing is it won't be easy. Look how long it took Hibs to get going at the start of this Season in a very similar position. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Godfather 71,899 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Folk think it will be easy, they said it last season.Thing is if half the team are for the off and we need to bring in new players it will not all click.It's anyone's guess how things will go, King especially has a key role to play. He has to invest Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look how long it took Hibs to get going at the start of this Season in a very similar position.Have to agree and it'll be harder for us as they didn't completely build a new team like we will have to. We need a miracle for us to hit the ground running. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need a miracle for us to hit the ground running.That is what a lot of folk don't understand. We clearly weren't good enough this year, and yet people assume that losing a load of our players will automatically make us better. It won't. Not at all, due to the fact we don't have any money to spend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ibroxholm 2,276 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Although we all feel like it at present, don't think it is feasible to ditch everyone of our squad. New manager will have to make some hard decisions about who he thinks can do a job for him and who can't. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
weshallnotbemoved! 714 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Of course we will go up ffswe will walk it next seasonby a good 15/20 pointsWhich was thought by great many this year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bighouse 1,012 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 If Hibs win the league [which is a distinct possibility] we'll find ourselves in another playoff and on today's showing I wouldn't be putting the mortgage on us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at all, due to the fact we don't have any money to spend. It will automatically make us better, miles better. This season has shown us the worst Rangers team in our history, so losing a load of these freeloaders can only be an improvement. Thank f*** their contracts are up, as that means we get rid of the lot in one go. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jelavic191 4,451 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Can't call that just now as we don't know what squad/manager we will have. I'll be expected us and HIbs to be up there again. QotS and Falkirk to be in about the playoffs again. Not sure what St Mirren are like but they will probably be in the mix too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
folkestoneger 8,137 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 I think Hibs will lose a couple of their best players and will not be any better than this year whereas we can be a lot better without fat dud making the decisions Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

YorkshireBear 222 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 I think we will end up keeping a few players that should go. Purely because we need numbers, make no mistake, we find ourselves in the same position as we did going into Div 3, whole new squad needed, and no time to do it in, only this time we need a manager as well.My heart says W&W and a new squad, my head says it will be McCall and around 50% of the current squad and 50% new.

Wearethepeople72 1,845 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Of course we can. On paper we should romp the league but as we seen this year, the league is played on the pitch and not on paper.It'll be tough but if we get the right manager, players and staff in then there is no reason why we shouldn't win it.

NeoGeo7 10,520 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Crucial time now. The board have to move quick to appoint a manager, pretty sure it won't be McCall though.A good appointment and good signings that we can get behind then yes we will have a good shout of winning the league.Just can't stomach another play off battle next year.

NixonRFC 1,334 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Can we go up next year? That very question would rightfully have been sniggered at this time last year, serious question though, these Play-Offs are a boot in the balls for the Champ team who doesn't go up, feels like the whole season was pointless Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gj923 1,457 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 I have the distinct impression that SMC will be given another year. Not going up means less money so paying him and Black around 150k is probably easier than shelling out 700k plus.He had already mentioned scouting out prospects so it will be interesting to see who he has in mind.I see Hibs being the strongest challengers but not like Hearts and therefore I think we will win the league but it will be close Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He assembled a highly paid pile of shit and we have been dire.I think even the biggest of critics would have struggled to comprehend that we couldn't get up via the Play-Offs at least, i get that there will be some but the vast majority would have thought we could at least get up by default of the other teams being crap Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
