Reference the "shagger" part on that FF post... he's a wee pest, I've seen evidence firsthand tbh.

Scoring on the park, maybe no? Scoring aff the park, he's taking McGregors gauntlet it seems.

Doesn't seem the type especially cos he doesn't drink but there you are

Probably

He was finished last year, and if it wasn’t for his new coaching position a lot more people would have been raging we signed him up for another year instead of investing that wage elsewhere in the team

Gerrard showed his true colours what he thinks of Defoe by leaving him here on his todd to face the awkward situation with the new manager and backroom team coming in and him pretty much been demoted back to player only, gio has no connection to Defoe, and as nice a guy as Defoe is, he might be a decent coach one day but he will never be a manager in his own right imo

Slightly different situation with Defoe due to the transfer window. We probably could have terminated his contract, but that would have left us short of cover.

The rat looking after his pal rather than the interests of the club. Left us paying a wage to a guy that will hardly play till the end of the season......

I’d put money on the majority of Rangers fans being pleased in the summer about Defoe taking on the role he did.

Defoe is a class act but I didn’t agree with the extension of his playing contract in the summer for a bit part player, but accepting the coaching part. However, when he preferred being on the TV rather than attending our game a few weeks ago, it stinks of sentiment in the summer having won the league and SG wanting to keep and reward all his pals.  Let’s hope it only was a 1 year contract and we get out of it soon.  Several £k p/w for 5-10m at the end of the game tells you we haven’t learnt much at all about running a club prudently.

I think reading between the lines he was allowed to be on SKY as there was a fallout with the previous regime due to how little he was being used.

Why?

Because he has no experience as a coach, has only just really started doing his badges and was nowhere near being the best candidate as an addition to the first-team coaching staff. If Defoe wants to pick up experience then great. He can coach in the Academy instead and learn his job.

Not sure. Think the initial speculation of £30k was discredited. @The Dude might know

 

Hopefully he is professional enough to earn his keep whilst he sees out his contract, or moves on to a club that can offer him a coaching role.

Not questioning his ability or intention.
