berkshirebear 2,771 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 If Gerrard goes who would replace him? (realistically) I'm struggling to think of any decent candidates, what's happened to Scottish managers!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

berkshirebear 2,771 Posted March 1, 2020 Author Share Posted March 1, 2020 I think we need someone relatively young and hungry for success. It's going to be one hell of a challenge for whoever comes in... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

esquire8 42,465 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Whoever Wilson ends up choosing he knows the manager will need to have a good knowledge of the game up here from the off, has experience, has built sides for winning games not a style and knows the club. If he goes Scottish then someone like Alex Neil ticks most of them boxes. If he decides for a foreigner then fuck knows. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howsitgoing 4,281 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Instead of new manager I’d prefer Beale going to the youths, McAllister moved to 1st team coach and an experienced semi-retired manager who wants to act in some sort of mentor capacity being an assistant to Gerrard.

the brown brogue 1,909 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 If a new manager is required I'd hope our board to do what any competent organisation would do - invite applications, shortlist, interview, shortlist, interview again, select best candidate. Given their track history however I'd expect them to select the most left-field candidate who gives the best powerpoint presentation Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kai_Johansen 978 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 We got Gerrard due to his inexperience, he's now got experience, if we have to replace him, we have a choice of going for someone who's inexperienced or someone who's cheap! Anyone with any knowledge in the game know that taking the Ranger's job next season, and failing to win the league is opening themselves up to a public linching!

And that’s why unless he quits .It will be as you were next season If SG wants to succeed .He has to sell Tavanier ,possibly Goldson .Get rid of Davis ,Aribo .All the surplus guys picking up big wages but hardly contributing .Sell Alfredo Bring in decent replacements and use these replacements Mcgregror ,Hagi ,Katic ,Helander ,Jack ,Arfield ,Kent ,Bara are the only regulars I want to see next season Anyone I haven’t mentioned wouldn’t care too much one way or another Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think BB would leave in a heartbeat if Italy was on offer, I'm sure he would much prefer to get kicked in Seria! Would have Jack and Docherty as a central pairing, not because I think he's better than Davis as a footballer, he's just got more fight and energy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing's is for sure. If Gerrard leaves, none of his staff will be wanting to stay in Scotland. Not one. They will all be gone. They are here for Gerrard.

Sometimes players need time to settle. Agreed on the rest though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
