I think timmy having a new manager who wants to impress down south may make them keep their foot on the gas when most teams would have long since eased up Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howsitgoing 4,281 Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 It's far from unambiguous that he shouldn't get another season and they're must be genuine reasons for that. Rangers have never been a club that gets rid of managers willy nilly and should never be. With Mccoists managerial tenure it was an easy decision, le guen also. With Mark Warburton they're is still a nagging feeling with me anyway that we are not yet seeing the full play in regards to future developments. Id like to see atleast one under 21's player make a fundamental step up into the first team before the end of the season though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juniorsparkie 493 Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 If we start performing as a cohesive unit. If we can be competitive against everyone we play between now and the end of the season. If we can show that there is something other than this toothless pass yourself into bother football. If his signings look like being capable of doing us a turn. Then I would grudgingly give him the next season. But and this isn't a deal breaker but close, do we trust him with whatever money will come our way over the summer ? I hate to see any Rangers Manager sacked or hounded out but even he must see the need for a Huge and Rapid improvement, doesn't he ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, given the way our form disintegrated in the second half of last season with no pressure on us, I fully expect our arses to collapse completely under the pressure of having to win games with Aberdeen breathing down our necks.

Neil1418 60 Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Absolutely no way, his signings have been unbelievable and indeed puzzling why sign around fifteen mediocre players. I would have thought he would signed two quality big fast CH's and two quality midfielders. Build the team around a solid defence and m/field and I reckon we would be less money for wages than we are now. But that's only my opinion and I still can't work out his thinking, about running with tight squad young hungry fast players I just don't know. He also puts me in mind of McCoist as it appears that he can't change tactics of the team during a game. I'm just sick and tired of these performances and I don't think he can be trusted for anymore signings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's true as well bring fewer players in with better quality never understood why he filled the team with so many players who maybe could make it one day, big risk for a Manager.

This, I also cant understand why he still hasnt put a spine down the middle of the team and build off IT. He has a keeper who gets by but not too good with distribution, then nothing IN front down the middle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
five stars 1,767 Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Other. He's got till the end of the season for me to get second place but also needs to show were heading in the right direction and that he's learning and able to change tactics when required.

I honestly hope I have been concerned about his ability to motivate players since as far back as last years cup final, and while I agree that players should not down tools it does appear that they do, especially if the games start going wrong, like Wed night. The game last Sat against Motherwell suited us when it went 10 v 10 IMO, it gave us a little more room and we managed to create and score the goals we needed. We will probably scrape a win tomorrow but I really do not have much faith in that opinion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 I don't see how anyone who wants him gone can think he could redeem himself by the end of the season? That's basically saying it's acceptable to be shite for most of the season but scrape the bare minimum at the end to save your own arse. He's had his chance and it didn't work out and while I feel bad for the guy I also feel worse for every bear that has to sit thru this shite Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
William McBeath 2,154 Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Nah, he won't get the time, patience, or resources to turn this around. An old fashioned manager will make us more defensive and get us more points making us a better also ran to the filth on paper. Its shite but Rangers can't do what others teams do by having a long-term strategy unless things go well quickly. I'd rather Warburton saved himself the aggro and found a club where he will get the backing and time frame to have a chance of being a success. We shouldn't try this type of manager again without having lots of cash so we can hit the ground running because its just the reality at a club like ours where there can be no bad season.

Blue Dutch 1690 10 Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 2nd don't win you anything in this league. If we do finish 2nd with this squad then it is only due to the other 10 teams dropping points against each other. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueThunder 8,644 Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 I think he is going about things the right way but making a mess of it at times. For him to be given next season I think we'd have to improve substantially from now on and have an excellent run in the cup. It would help substantially if some of his signings recovered from injury / came good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
