wearethepeople1 3,897 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Absolutely no chance for getting Frank de Boer, unless DK finds a pile of cash or sells some of his vintage wine collection a realistic target at the moment would be McIness. Has done pretty well at Aberdeen over the last few years, he may not have the same "philosophy" as certain others, but I think he would boot a few baws and get folk playing for our badge again.

Jack The Flipper 5,936 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 You know something, with King in charge, the only person I would trust now to be able to stop the scum getting 10 in a row is Walter. I know it's bad saying it. I've even been on the other side taking the piss out of folk for wanting him back as soon as something goes wrong. But I guess that boat has sailed.

And they will need the means to build a proper side. That will be a problem whoever is our manager. Warburton included if he survives. We aren't catching Celtic with loans, frees and 250k signings. We might find 2 or 3 gems but we need 5 or 6 ready to go winners. I'd settle for 3 signings around the £2m mark and a couple of good Bosmans of Barton standard (but fitter and less cunty). Can think board raise the funds to give us the £5 - £8m that we needed this year to build the foundations of a good side? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember back in April thinking we had the platform for something special, Everything since then has been a downer. If we don't invest in the first team, and that should have started this window, then this is going to continue, even with a new manager.

Let's be hypothetical and make Walter ten years younger, do you think he would be happy with this budget? Walter would possibly want more than five of that team out the door as soon as possible.

To Be A Ranger 4,032 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I always thought (maybe more in hope) MW would leave us in such a good state that a top manager would jump at the job. Right now I see him leaving us in such a hell of a mess that we need a strong manager who knows what Rangers are all about to fix what he has done. I'd even take Mcleish even though I hate stepping back. But we need someone that can instil some steel and pride once again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truth_is_out_there 197 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 4 minutes ago, Turnberry18 said: I can hardly talk about it mate, totally dumbstruck by the whole shambles; and you're probably right. Halliday lets the ball go for a wander just outside the box whilst being closed down, and why doesn't Wes pass it out wider anyway. This is so basic it's unreal. I know what you mean mate. I was a big fan of Warburton and was standing by him until the end of he season, at least. You are spot on: a mistake or two changes the whole complexion of the game. BUT, it's the lack of fight that gets me. I can accept getting beat by the better team - that's football; but we seem unable to fight fire with fire: when teams play at a very high tempo against us, or get in 'our faces', we really struggle, and you can see the confidence slowly ebbing away from our players as the game goes on. Perhaps Warburton has just taken this group of players as high as he can, and another manager coming in would give us some new ideas and bit of freshness? I really don't know. I'm just pissed off like everyone else on here Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really think we need a Scottish manager back at the helm, someone who knows what the club is all about. He is a realistic target who would 100% take the job IMO someone like de boer would want to come in once we are in Europe and have got a decent transfer budget to offer Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loyal-Bear 229 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Need someone who has managed a big club. A club who is used to winning. Rangers job is far too big for Warburton.
