billym27 315 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 GRAEME MURTY has this morning been relieved of his duties as manager of Rangers. Jimmy Nicholl and Jonatan Johansson will take charge of the team for the three remaining matches of the season. Rangers are grateful to Graeme, who did not hesitate when asked last October to become interim manager after the departure of Pedro Caixinha and then, at the turn of the year, when he was offered the role as manager until the end of the season. Graeme has had to contend with difficult and challenging circumstances but conducted himself in a thoroughly professional manner. He will take some time to consider his options, which include returning to his role at the Rangers Academy. Jimmy Nicholl and Jonatan Johansson have already started preparing the team for the match against Kilmarnock on Saturday and they will be in place for the two remaining fixtures, against Aberdeen and Hibernian. The club hopes to be in a position to comment further on the managerial situation in the near future. https://Rangers.co.uk/news/headlines/club-statement-88/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Malvern 11,329 Posted May 1, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted May 1, 2018 GRAEME MURTY has this morning been relieved of his duties as manager of Rangers We threw the man under the bus as we could not find another manager but we appreciate that Jimmy and JJ will step forward and take over the reins for three pointless games for the end of the season. Graeme will probably be thrown to the wolves and never allowed near any team in Rangers again but we are delighted to announce this move to take the heat off the board who have not had the courage to find a replacement at a suitable Primark price. Please be assured the board are working through a shortlist of under 20's coaches to take over the main squad as getting a proper manager would cost us cash we do not have at this time. The club hopes to be in a position to bend the fans over and fuck them in the arse in the near future.

Popular Post Jonok 1,245 Posted May 1, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted May 1, 2018 I hope Murty stays on as under 20's coach he doesn't deserve to be sacked for stepping up to the plate when the board asked him to, he was never experienced or qualified enough to take on the managers job but he still gave it his best shot which sadly for everyone just wasn't good enough. The buck stops with the board who put him in that position when its their responsibility to be ready for any managerial situation that arises.
