Imodium 411 Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Is Graham Souness waiting in the wings if things don't go to plan over the next couple of years? The majority of us would love to see Super Ally move into the big chair when Walter hangs up his managers coat but part of me feels this is wishful thinking. I'm not too sure Ally would be ready to take such a high profile job with his inexperience at this level. i could imagine Souness in the dressing room pre old firm riling the players up - the players would be frightened to go back if they lost and this is what we need. A boot up the arse in a sense - no more nervy encounters - he's the type of manager that would give you the belief you would bag a hat trick in a match and that your willie is 15" long. The man has contacts and I'm sure plenty of supporters would like to seem him back to finish what he started. This isn't an attack on WS but at 60yrs old he shouldn't go on much longer in terms of family etc. He should look back on a glittering Rangers career and be proud of what he has achieved.

Bluebell11 0 Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 I would love to see Souness again, but I think it's been shown time and time again at different clubs ..... going back is not the way ahead. :unionflag: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

martyb1873 0 Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 They were glory days, but very different days...... we had the england captain leading us out, had money to burn and could sign pretty much anyone in the british isles.

Emerson 2 Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Based on the evidence of what he has acheived since leaving us, I wouldnt touch him with a bargepole. If he is that great at putting the fear up players, how come he failed at every club since Rangers? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcbear 10,924 Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Wrecking ball of a manager.After Rangers he has managed although not in order Liverpool,Southampton,Blackburn,Newcastle,Torino,Benfica and Galatasaray, i think thats the list, all with little success, no ta from me, unless he is the front man for a bid.

He's failed in every other managerial position he's held, and should never be allowed to manage Rangers again. I'd take him as Chairman if he was backed by serious money though. He has Rangers in his heart. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
