Number5 2,240 Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 Can understand the move to a degree for mainly family reasons. There's probably only 2 or 3 teams in England that would make his commute easier and he couldn't manage any of them, so get why a Villa or Wolves would be essentially his best option. Just comes at a shit time, 6mths down the line I'd actually welcome the change as like people have said he's done his 'cycle' it's time for a change and new ideas. He's going to be losing 3 or 4 of his trusted older heads that have without doubt made his life easier in being big presences in the dressing room/training etc. Is he shiting the bed at the thought of failure this year and what that would mean to his legacy come the summer? He leaves now (in his mind) with us in a really commanding position 4pts clear at the top of the table and with a chance in all competitions? Big players coming back, squad stronger than ever........... If we go to do well, he's played his part, if we fail then he says that he left us in a good position?? If he does leave, and I hope he doesn't, just for continuity to be stunted at such an important time in our season then the clubs next appointment needs to be absolutely spot-on otherwise we're back to pre-Gerrard times. Clarity in needed in the next few hours so everyone can move on. Fuck me, if he says it's all media bullshit, what a lift that'll be for the club!

Regardless of what anyone thinks of him at the moment, me included he’s still a global icon, a young manager and title winner.

graeme_4 36,334 Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 Pretty confident it’s happening. Won’t be shedding any tears to be honest. We’re hardly on fire under Gerrard at the moment. The squad needed refreshed in the summer and he didn’t do it. Cup record is also appalling. Seems to have lost that spark we had in previous seasons. We’re now in a position of strength compared to when we hired him, so a new manager has a lot more to work with and we’re a far more attractive proposition. It took big balls to take on the challenge of stopping 10IAR, and he did it. Won’t hold much ill will either if the Board get the next appointment right. League and country is a shit hole so can’t blame him. nik2402, sausagetrunks and Giiise 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say what you want about Gerrard but one thing I've learned while he's been here is that what he says in pressers is often miles away from reality. He plays the game and gives the 'right' answer, even if it comes back ad makes him look a bit daft down the line. Maybe so, but we're getting away from my original point. He doesn't need to respond to speculation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

League and country is a shit hole so can’t blame him. I get we’re hardly on fire but stability is our best chance of winning the league again this season. I also don’t trust the board to get it right. The majority seem to want Gio, the board will probably think along the lines of Davidson. Leaving us in the lurch at this stage of the season especially after his soundbites about loyalty, 2 clubs for me etc is really really bitter, despite how he carries himself as Rangers manager that is really low. I still want him to stay purely based on the stability side of things, but honestly if the rumours aren’t quashed today then I think we’re in for a seriously turbulent 2 months Bluekev and BlueAvenger 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JackAlex93 12,030 Posted November 10, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2021 The longer this story goes on today without a peep from the gaffer the more and more likely it looks that he will leave. Its not looking good I'm afraid. I will be shocked if he does go. It will say a lot about the man Gerrard is if he does leave at this point in the season. Will be scunnered if he does.

Gazzalivesforever 2,015 Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 This "he won the most important trophy" line getting thrown about is nonsense. To stop 10 in a row you have to acknowledge they'd won 9 in a row and in my eyes they didn't. 1 trophy in 9 isn't good enough. I'd like to think he feels that way was well and continues here but this looks like its gathering some legs. Unless the club or he makes some kind of statement of intent then no news is bad news imo.

Not sure about you but if this goes through especially at the rumoured compensation price which is a joke anyway I don’t trust them to get it right. People are forgetting this is the same board that appointed Caixinha. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude 20,027 Posted November 10, 2021 Author Share Posted November 10, 2021 The fact there's been nothing put out from the club through Dingwall, Edgar or 4Lads speaks volumes here. If Gerrard had no interest, the club would have put it out via 'friendly' media by now. BridgeIsBlue, markem, eskbankloyal and 1 other 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
