jackrfc95 4,255 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Say de Boer is out the equation, is McInnes really that bad a suggestion? Builds decent teams with next to no budget, was there when we clinched 9IAR so understands what it means to stop their 10 and of course would weaken the sheep. I know he's not the most popular choice on here but compared to some of the others such as McLeish and Davies who seem most likely I'd take Mcinnes over them all day long. Compensation could be a stumbling block though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mabawsa 888 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Placed Sky bet on Davies at 6/1..... him with wee Spenny as his assistant. Davies been getting more airtime on Rangers games last few weeks and John Spencer has returned from the US. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MARK92GERS 815 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Of all the names mentioned I'd literally tan my wrists if it was most of the ones on the list only ones I'd take would be De Boers, McInnes or Walter maybe even a outsider that hasn't been mentioned Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After positing this I read it's going to be McLeish or Davies till the end of the season so the permanent appointment won't be till the summer. McInnes doesn't really excite me but I can't think of any ther realistic candidates. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the problem, realistically at this moment in time it's going to be people whom we are not going to be really that happy being in charge. It's the wrong time of year and we're not the best financially, so sadly we have to look at less exotic people. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I'm saying calderwood might be the best option, it sounds silly I know, but being realistic he's the only one that would accept a short term contract and still love the oppertunity - he's done it plenty times before. McLeish might accept a short term contract as well, Mcinnes? Nah, don't see it, he'll want in for a longer time. I'd rather be with calderwood than managerless until the summer, then we can get someone else in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to David Edgar the only 2 candidates are Davies or McLeish then see where we are in the summer. I'm guessing they'd both accept it and treat it as an audition to get it full time. Not sure which one I'd prefer if I'm being honest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always got frustrated with him playing players out of position. The whole thing is like choosing which turd doesn't smell the most shitty.

We cannot risk our future by frivolously giving it to someone who is an ex ranger and talks well in the media. More qualifications and experience is required. Has to be a tried and tested manager. Otherwise we could very well be in a world of pain. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
