It was different with Souness. He was offered the Liverpool job, which was obviously the dream move for him given his prior history at that club, and he wanted to wait until the season was over. It was Murray who demanded he leave, because back then it was still held that the Rangers Manager should never be looking elsewhere.

This is different. Gerrard seems to have been quietly working his ticket away and has left in an international break like leaving the house in the dead of night with all your clothes packed. He might well have been talking to his pal CEO at Villa when he gave that interview to Emma Dodds. It's far more sleekit and cuntish with Gerrard.

Working his ticket.....Jesus fuck, was Gerrard responsible for Villa losing 5 on the spin which ended up with Dean Smith getting bagged....just face up to facts mate Villa need a new manager and they have identified Gerrard, after 3 and a bit years he clearly feels this is his next step....to suggest he somewhat orchestrated it is just lunacy

That picture nearly had me in tears

Highlights the difference in class more than anything else.

Driven up to Glasgow by the club, unveiled in the Blue Room and then presented to 10,000 fans to an instant heroes welcome.

Compare and contrast him sneaking off a public train carrying his suit bag in hand before he will probably be unveiled in a press room with a generic sponsorship filled background to no fans.

Like i said, I don’t begrudge him doing what he feels is best for his career, but unless he gets the Liverpool job he will never be loved and treated like a god the way he was among our support and by the people running our club.

That’s what he might live to regret when his management is all said and done.

He is tho, might as well accept it. He's done at Ibrox, even if he doesn't go to villa his hearts clearly not in it.

Seemingly he also wasn't really upset at Walter passing either. All just a clever ploy from Gerrard.

Bring back Ian Ferguson from Oz, he's a double hard bastard and wouldn't take any shit plus he's loyal. 

I swear somebody has made this suggestion every time we’ve appointed a manager since about 2006

If SG leaves now, right before a semi final and a do-or-die European game, his character is simply not what I thought it was.  He doesn't need the money and he always goes on about how he loves being at Rangers as its a club like Liverpool where winning is expected and he wouldn't get that buzz at most clubs.  If he swaps us for Villa then It will really damage most Rangers fans views on him IMO.  This doesn't mean we hate him or we don't appreciate 55.  It just means that he clearly didn't love the club as much as we thought and clearly didn't respect the pain the fans have been through over the years like he said.  If he did then there would be no way he leaves at this moment in a season.

Jobs like Villa will always come around on the normal musical chairs routine once in a while.  There is no reason to rush into this one.  I hope I am wrong but it looks like Gerrards legacy is going to be a fraction of what it could have been.  It will be all about 55 when it should have been about leading us to back-to-back titles, the CL and a few domestic cups.

No one man is bigger than Rangers but I will be incredibly disappointed in SG if he walks now and takes his whole backroom team with him leaving us totally scunnered.

He won't be treated as a God in Liverpool either because he's not a good enough manager, he's been riding the coattails of his name and the fact the taigs arses collapsed and he got 10iar, we've been shit since then with little to no sign of improvement, he'll fail down south

Gerrard managed an u18's team before us

[Prso's headband 35,800]

Btw he simply can’t come back from this now. 
 

Some of our fans (Edgar included) hanging on like a bad ex hoping he’ll change his mind or choose us over them is embarrassing. He’s done here as far as I’m concerned. I hope Wilson has deleted his number and is on the phone to agents for a replacement. 
 

This talk of an interim in due course like Murty is giving me the heave. We’re still in with a shout of a treble and progression in Europe. 3 weeks of Murty in that period and that all comes crashing down.

I assume we will be getting a fair chunk of wonga from Villa for him and the background team? I will be sorry to see him go (feels like I was watching an artist creating some work of art and him walking away before it's finished 😪) I  remember the same anger when Souness left before the season was complete, still stings actually 🤔 but as we all know no one is bigger than our Club absolutely no one 💙 with class and respect, I thank him for his part in our incredible journey 👏 now the King is dead, long live the new King 👍🇬🇧

Who’s the Aston Villa under 18’s coach? 😉🤣

Tbh if we got helander back we wouldnt miss goldson, morelos is playing the worst he has since joining us and tav is replaced by patterson (ive said my piece enough times about tav lol) 

Losing kent, kamara would cripple us way more than they 3
