If, just if, McCoist leaves, who would you have in place? Just your opinions, don't shoot others down if you don't agree. It's very subjective. I'll say Billy Davies. Low starting wage with an increase for promotion, top 2 finish, and so on. Stuart McCall would also be a shrewd bet as the CEO is also moving on and change might be afoot. Great record in last few seasons and brings on youth.

Not b davis not butcher not macinnes yet stuart macoll with ian murray as assistant would not take fortune in wages

I would go for Derek mcinnes.

Stuart McCall has done an excellent job at Motherwell with limited funds but can't see anyone other than Ally managing us at the start of our Championship campaign.

Heres one stevie clark he would do a job for us.

I would go for Ian Murray, part time team in championship just missed out on play offs, great prospect. Once a Ger always a Ger

Alex Mcleish assisted by Craig Levein.

I had the pleasant surprise of meeting Derek McInnes in the RAH in paisley on wednesday evening as he visited his God parent - he laughed when I suggested he should come take over

Sorry 6 not big Alex for me. I agree with Copland 1 it will be McCoist next year.
Ian Murray has done well in the championship and will take points of us next season. Stuart McCall was a great wee tenacious midfielder for us and has done superbly at Motherwell having to cope with losing half a team every season but still keeping Motherwell in the top 3 on a shoestring.
I think McInnes has done really well at Aberdeen and would do well with us but he has unfinished business in Aberdeen who are currently the only team who can beat Celtic. They are moving to a new stadium soon and he is probably one that got away.
Qwolf Stevie Clark is a great shout from the left field and was apparently highly regarded by Jose Marinho at Chelsea and seemed to do all right for a while at West Brom. But whilst some of us may want change in both the dug-out and in the boardroom I think we will start next season as we were.
But whilst we are suspending disbelief what about Ya Ya Toure's goal from his own half last Wednesday- now that was a thing of beauty IMO

Don't mind Boyd coming back provided its on the right money. Think he has learned a big lesson after leaving the first time. Theory suggests he would score goals in the Championship but as the last few years shows nothing really goes as you would expect. It would be an interesting comparison on the leagues - 22 goals this year. How many would he get in the championship?

For the record I wanted big Tel to lead our rise up to the top.
I thnk I was proven wrong on that one.
But I still do not like what we are playing under Ally hence my not wanting him to continue with the same style! of football.
The posts before all carry the same theme cheap to hire managers to save money but a good astute manger buys and sells well and is worth every penny paid.
With the very good possability of very low seson ticket sales only good footballing displays will encourage fans to go now so the right leadership is essential.
Barrhead Eck never let us down.
Dounebear

Bambi coming back to Rangers just what we need 2 years at Birmingham City 4 goal not exactly setting the heather on fire it's getting to the point we can nearly name a full team from guys that left us guys who refused new contracts at the time.

I hope I'm wrong but we will have McCoist for at least one more season, that's if we have one. If we could get things sorted out, I'd opt for Stuart McCall.

I fear McCoist will be allowed to continue. I think McCall might be the best choice. I wonder if season ticket sales might dictate change?

Billy b as hughie green said I scincerely hope so folks no many on here will have mind hughie green probably think he played for celtic

I'd personally go for Stephen Pressley or, perhaps controversially, John Collins. I reckon both would do a good job and play decent football.

Lbj d, I think he might have been Charles Green's auld man and that's how he learned about ' Double your money. '

Nice on billyb for us more mature in years bears lol do you think monica rose was charlies mum lol

Well done billy b

Tmwnn mind u its no sore is it maybe its the memories

Mcleish with Wilkins or Ferguson and have Jim Jefferies to head a new effective youth set up.

Tmwnn, lbj d and the rest of us auld yins, 'opportunity knocks' is probably more apt.

Billyb I sudgested it was oppertunity knock but she said he done both shows I thought it was yon baldy gut that done double your money his name was micheal miles though I could be wrong lol

Tmwnn, Your baldy man was Michael Miles, I think. cheers.

"Boyds finished, he's too old we don't want to go back. "etc etc well he isn't too old this season and I for one am excited at the thought of him coming back. And whilst I'm on do yous still want butcher back instead of Ally? Be careful what you wish for Bears.

Not sure we should have Boyd back. If he comes back for the same money he's on at Killie though, allegedly £900 a week then fair enough. up front with Clark. Not interested in big bucks for Miller, I bet if he is signed, he'll promptly tear his hamstring and be out for 4 months.

Max £2500 miller no

Jyf you might consider Boydy to be too old, but 22 goals this season- he can still put the ball in the back of the net.

@ copland1 I think you have misunderstood Jyf he to wants Boyd back. There is no arguing about his goal scoring ability. The majority of you Ally fans who don't mind us going down the expensive old players route seem to prefer Boyd to Miller except Boyd scored once for us against Celtic Miller scored 11 for us against them. I don't want either I still want us to go the more affordable build for the future route e.g Kenny MacLean of St Mirren who was at Ibrox as a youth.

Definetly not macleish and levein I used to think levein would have been a man for ibrox but not after scotland debacle

Some information I heard from an aquaintance at Rangers Pools who told me this interesting fact.
As we all know up to now ally was untouchable, as they needed him to help sell season tickets, but now apparently board are a) worried about poor sales and b) Ally's falling reputation among the fans.
Board are SERIOUSLY thinking of replacing Ally before start of season.
Any other bear heard these rumours?

Hawd on CB that's an almost sensible post. Are you feeling alright? lbj d said he had heard something similar- I think

@1 And that's probably where CB heard it or have he and lbj d got a source that they are willing to share.

{Ed039's Note - No, it is something doing the rounds quite consistently though)

Come on guys stop trying to cheer me up!

Just another rumour made up, like cribari signing a new deal, rangers 2 weeks away from admin, etc, etc

Clarkston bud I was told that wallace is looking at the options I believe this to be true

Jyf its not the same source I have crossed all my fingers and toes I know it won't cure the shareholder problem but it would make the club more attractive to new investment or acomplete buyout every commentator and reporter know macoists management and tactics are pure mince

Bonbon its certainly not made up on my part

So we have 2 sources saying the board thinking about getting ally out, are these sources privy to all boardroom talk? Surely one of them must know who blue pitch holdings are or margarita?

I think the benefits to our team would be immense if it comes to pass.

Just been looking at talking bawls website top 10 questions asked on graham Wallace Twitter today, most are cheeky tims but funny as feck!

E. g.
@Oldfirmfacts1 #ReadyToListen Hi Graham, my friend got told off at Ibrox for eating a green starburst, how do you intend to deal with this?
1:42 PM - 9 May 2014

Situation is dire but the best banter of my life has always been with the opposition. We have to laugh??

Foxy

:0) ha ha, got to love the banter. Cannae blame them for taking the p155. We've certainly provided them plenty of ammo.

Aahhh. the Glasgow banter! How I miss it!

@ FoxyM at the risk of getting well deserved pelters for this approaching rudeness and please don't take offence- I'm rude to everybody- Do you naw need to get oot mair?
I have no doubt there is a lot of good humour on there but is your example not more Kelvin Bridges than Kevin Bridges?
"Told off for eating a green starburst what are you going to do about it" -really is it me or is that jist no very funny?

AYE YIR RIGHT I AM AN INSENSITIVE RUDE AULD B@GGER.

But your mission for today should you wish to accept it is to go back onto that site and come back wie a belter.

Aw the best!

And before yis start there were a few of you thinking the same thing yis were jist Allying out of saying anything.

@ FoxyManchester it is the real greybear here please ignore that last post posing as me. It was on old man who is actually banned from the site and rightly so.
Your joke is fine lad

P. S Hibs in the playoffs- lost again to Killie. Could be quite a Championship next year!

Greybear yes it will be a good hard league next season do you think we will win the championship

Tmwnn at this moment in time and if nothing changes I think Hearts are ahead of us. But there will be more comings and goings before the new season so who knows? What is certain is there will be more competition in the championship than in the top league IMO. Finally 11% want Cribari to get a new contract eh??
