Should Warburton get next season if we finish second

[MelbourneBlue 198]

Have to say "no". What I can't deal with is the constant lack of intervention when "Plan A" isn't working. That's probably the most important thing a manager is paid very well to do on match days - and he simply doesn't.

[bornabear 6,224]

No, he's akin to the curate's egg, good in places.

In the last 13 months he has shown a stubbornness to change his attitude toward  tactics, style and philosophy. 

He has learned nothing about Scottish football in his time with us, it's his way or the highway.

Therefore, I choose the highway, M74 southbound.

 

[giffnockger 4,840]

100000000000000000% not

[jamess 3,453]

Its the lack of improvements in performance. We are getting nowhere with him.

[j1mgg 3,766]

He needs to show progress, which he hasn't really shown this year.

 

If he wins the cup, then I would give him a chance.

[jbm26896 995]

Yes he should - he needs a financial backing that our board won't give. 

Nobody will catch them without investment.

The only way to be here next season for me is a finishing the last half season strongly and by that I mean 4-6 points from beggars and sheep and win the majority of others giving us a 10-12 gap towards 3rd and consolation of a cup win.  

Far fetched with these half arsed players but they are hid after all and he better start demanding high standards

According to Jamie Fullarton Warburton was offered a managers job in the English championship within the last 3 weeks and turned it down.

I'd take that with a pinch of salt though as Jamie Fullarton talks absolute pish.

I think the soundbites are more to make him look good for his next job, he knows he's gone in the summer.

Probably but they are fucking ridiculous.

The development club one was possibly one of the worst quotes I've ever heard from a Rangers manager. 

That might sound good down at Leyton Orient when you use the loan players to help stave off relegation to league 2 but up here at the biggest team in the country? 

Should be sacked alone for shocking comments like that.

I 100% agree with the point you're making but he never said development club, Sutton did to paraphrase his comments on protecting Hyndman.

It could be the board aren't offering him more money because they realise he's not the man to take us forward,

They can see the results table the same as us and it's not good enough.

Say what you like about broken promises but the shambles he made with this years signings, they'd be mugs to throw more money at him.

[Gandalf the Blue 1,384]

Voted Yes. But that could all change in the coming months. If we finish second by a decent points margin and he gets money to spend, then I'll give him a crack the the title. We need to have a good showing in Europe too. An early exit at the start of next season could spell the end for him too.

Rapid improvement is needed at this time

Am probably getting carried away but I'm 100% sure he said "protect the interests of Bournemouth". That is it in a nutshell. Protect the interests of fucking Bournemouth when you're the Rangers manager? Joke IMO. 

[james_85 660]

Doesn't have the mentality to be at a club where you need to win at all costs.

Ex player who played with a host of clubs including St Mirren (had to google). He was the manager of Notts County and got sacked after 2 months but thinks he's some sort of coaching guru who's in the know and regularly talks shite on sportsound.

As I said I agree completely. Thought you meant he actually called us a development club, a few people on here have said he did.

He might not have used that word but that was the implication.

[Amato 3,039]

Depends, 2nd and more 4-1 pumpings against mediocrity then no. 2nd and found a level of consistency and start putting in impressive performances then yes

[Young Bob 1,360]

Not sure at the minute. Has to win every game til the end of the season for me. Said that two weeks ago mind you.

But if whoever is the manager funds are needed to replace all the dross we have.

We have had poor teams and poor managers in the past but in 50 odd years of watching the bears Wednesday was the first time I can recall a Rangers team actually throw in the towel,it wasn't just getting beat it was humiliating. One of the iconic sights in Scottish football is Jim Baxter playing keepie up at Wembley and I always wondered why none of the England team didn't kick him up in the air. Well Wednesday was our Baxter moment, for the last twenty minutes hearts players were taking the piss yet not one Rangers player gave a fuck(not even supposed diehard Halliday). This proves the management and players don't have a clue what our club is all about(and I include legend my arse Davie Weir). I don't support boycotts,tannadice showed they don't work anyway,so how do we show our dissatisfaction with what is going on. We can't walk out on the 72nd minute as most cunts do that already,maybe we choose the next home game after Ross county and enter the ground ten minutes after kickoff,I don't know the answer but we are going nowhere under this setup and if season ticket sales go the way I fear they will then we are fucked.  PS could BP9 please refrain from replying to this post as I feel bad enough after Wednesday without your Pish 

[sassaaaa 11,406]

He will be kept till the end of the season and paid off with season ticket money.

There is no chance this guy is getting any cash for players.

[Albertz 78 918]

Nope and the fact he's now coming out and saying the points gap will only get bigger between now and the end of the season is shocking.

He might only be telling the truth but in public he should be saying things like "we'll fight to close the gap as much as we can etc". Coming out admitting you will lose games before they are played is horrifically bad management.

The scary thought is we still have to go away to Aberdeen and them lose those two games and we could be potentially 31 points behind with a quarter of the season to go.
