Gerrard charged by the SFA

Rangers say they are "bemused" by a "bizarre" Scottish FA charge given to manager Steven Gerrard for his response to a challenge on Alfredo Morelos in the win over Dundee United.

Ryan Edwards was not punished for a tackle which caused the Morelos to be substituted in Rangers 4-0 Scottish Premiership victory on 12 September.

Speaking on Rangers TV, the Ibrox manager said it "would be interesting if it was the other way around".

Gerrard faces a hearing on 8 October.

 

Rangers will "robustly contest" the charge of publicly criticising the match official and say they are "perplexed" that he has been cited.

They suggest Gerrard repeatedly refused "on several occasions" to say Edwards should have been sent off despite "leading questions" from journalists.

"Whilst our national sport faces an unprecedented crisis, it is baffling that resources are used to charge Rangers' manager based on a flawed and inaccurate interpretation of Steven Gerrard's remarks," a club statement read.

How else are we going to get rid of our latest fraud? The board ain't going to do right by the club. The fans are shit scared to question him. How else will we ever get rid?

No, what's absolutely pathetic is fans thinking he's done a good enough job here and is doing well, content with still having the problems in the team as we had when we took over, content with the same mistakes he made in his first few months in the job, content with the same points being dropped to the same shite in the same manner. That's what absolutely pathetic.

This thread is about the shite charge on Gerrard not his managerial ability. Theres a 17 odd page thread on Gerrard already I suggest you vent your anger in that one.👍

Hopefully trying to drive him out the country. 

Spirit of Bill Struth indeed..

THESE are the words of Mr. Bill Struth...

"Never fear, inevitably we have have our years of failure and when they arrive, we must reveal tolerance and sanity. No matter the days of anxiety that come our way, we shall emerge stronger because of the trials to be overcome. That has been the philosophy of the the Rangers since the days of the gallant pioneers."

If they gave a shit they may say something 

Most likely Hauxbay and Jacobs will mention it and laugh before they mention something going on at Northampton town .

Maybe if they were upto it they will get one of the expert pundits on to talk about it ,Sutton or Hartson

Gerrard or not, the English media don't give a fuck about the cesspit that is Scottish football, and no one could blame them.

To charge Gerrard for asking a question means he's touched on something they don't want the light shone on.
