Offering the hope of a better tomorrow even if that better tomorrow might actually be beyond their financial ability to deliver, is one way of trying to sweeten the bitter pill of a very poor season and create some positive thinking and energy for next season (or buy some time). After all, which of us have not walked past that posh car showroom with a glitzy sports car in the window and thought 'I wish I could afford that' and then maybe go in to see if there was a way of financing the deal ........only to come away empty-handed with the reality of financial life having bitten hard. Nothing wrong with aiming high. Nothing intrinsically wrong with failing in that ambition. But if you've let the family and kids know that you were aiming high and you let them down then you live with that. Lets see if King comes out with the equivalent of the keys to the posh car in his hand. After the build up over the last few days , and even an old sceptic like me is sometimes getting carried away in the euphoria , I think he's playing a dangerous game if he doesn't come out with the keys to that posh car . I sense even those that did support DK at one time would not accept another rejection . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The players probably know more than us , I'd like to think they'd be trying to impress SG or whoever else it may be . These are the kind of games they will be judged on , sadly that's no guarantee of effort as the semi proved . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Specky Forum Organiser 64,738 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Speaking to talkSPORT , Cascarino said: “I think it’s a golden opportunity for Steven, but the only way he can go there is if he can be given the finance to make a team and match what celtic do. Otherwise, there’s no point. “He has to be given the money to be competitive because the support there, the club in itself is a giant, it’s a golden opportunity for Steven Gerrard “I’m led to believe he’s very excited about it as well.” Fuck knows how he would know mind you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mafia32 93 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I wouldn't be surprised if a new invester from the states has been found and this has been one of the stipulations. Either way the sooner it's confirmed he has joined the better then the hard work can begin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone who follows Arsenal I just think he’s a complete embarrassment. Guys like him and Alan Smith just don’t get the fact that despite playing in Scotland us and celtic are two of the four biggest clubs in Britain alongside United and Liverpool. They just do not know what it’s like to be involved at a club with the traditions and demands of the support. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerrard isn't short. He could get a lot more money going back out to LA and doing ad's, coaching, promotions, reality TV etc out there. No doubt about it. The appeal for Gerrard is management. The chance of a lifetime to manage a big club like us as his first managers job. The way we are just now and the state we are in the job isn't for everyone it seems but it still appeals to anyone with a hint of personal ambition.
