This job isn't the shit show that Gerrard inherited 3 and a bit years ago I've been thinking exactly that as well. Don't want to never see another presser or reaction from him when we score, will be sad but our squad must be an intriguing prospect for someone to come in and take over, and I'd be excited to see who it is. surfsup2, RM Monitor And Standards Officer and graeme_4 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He knew Rangers fans would love him spinning narratives about how he's come to love the club and was happy to say the 'right' stuff about winning trophies, building legacies etc. He's very adept at telling people what they want to hear. They all come out with that shite. And thats what it is . Shite. Every manager alive is in this game for self advancement, as soon as they see what they think is a better option then theyre off, every single one of them. Its a bit naive for anyone not to see this. Alex Ferguson and Walter smith were the last of a breed. They actually put their clubs first, they truly did "get it", If he ever gets to liverpool gerrard might be like that but with us it was always just going to be a sound bite.

Although I really wouldn't be surprised if we do go for an interim manager till the summer & deal with it then when we know whether it's Champions League money or it's selling players. This board and contingency plans don't go together. At all. Valance1690 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis Reynolds 1,329 Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 I am fussed about him going, we have a horrendous couple of months of football coming up and thus far a few in this squad have found reasons to hide up their arse often without this happening.

BillyG91 5,590 Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 see if he left at the end of this season i wouldn't mind and he'd get my thanks and all the best but if he leaves this week or any time soon then that's shit of him leaving us in that situation i don't think he'll go but we'll see.

Essandoh 21,614 Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 It’s going to have to be a top calibre manager to replace him if we expect someone to come into the job mid season and bomb through the next run of games. Hibs semi, all the more difficult away games, and a potential Cup Final against that lot. Then a season defining Old Firm away to them with no Rangers fans. How enticing… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
