Our best option to move forward imo is to wait until the summer and do everything in our power to get Frank de Boer here,now it seems like the board want a permanent appointment made now rather than in a few months time. So would you rather wait and possibly get what should be our #1 candidate,or possibly jump the gun now and miss out? Me personally I'd rather wait,season's been a write off for months anyway. We are sliding further and further down the table with Murty in charge. We play 5th placed St Johnstone on Wednesday who are only 6 points behind us, and given our current form (we haven't won a league game in February FFS) they will certainly fancy their chances coming to Ibrox. If we don't clinch a European spot the managerial vacancy will become even less attractive than it is now. This season is far from over, in both positive and negative ways.

This is why I'd prefer an interim appointment made until the summer preferably McLeish. The board are doing it backwards wanting a permanent manager in now. 1 minute ago, Frank Harrison said: Because we could still win the Scottish Cup and come 2nd. We won't do either.

I'd love FDB but as you say its not gonna happen if we are looking to make a appointment now.. I think the board would wait if they could but what do we do in the interim because murty wont do? Appointing a manager until seasons end could leave the board in a no win situation....If the interim manager gets us 2nd and wins the cup Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingKirk 25,650 Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 IF we have just written this season of the board would win more time if the came out and said we are keeping things as they are until our number1 target becomes available I think people would accept that IF FDB was the man Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that happens and we end up with no European football we'll end up with a Mcinnes or Wright for sure. The only way we should wait for FDB is if he gives us assurances he'll take it in the summer.

BlueSuedeSambas 53,792 Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 If de Boer wanted the job I don't see why he wouldn't just take it now. Gives him a few months to settle in and assess his squad properly before he starts work rebuilding it in the Summer. All the nonsense about wanting to wait until the summer to start a new project is just a pish way of him saying he's waiting for something better to come up.

KingKirk 25,650 Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Wednesday is 1st march so If appointing a manager takes another 3/4 weeks we are into April the DOF must have some sort of Input into who the manager is going to be no? Personally I think this board are still hoping to get FDB thats why this process has been dragged out so long Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
