Use our rumours form to send us rangers transfer rumours.


26 Oct 2017 22:17:10
Deffo no foreigners please! . It has to be a British manager, someone who knows the Scottish game. Someone who can organise and make us hard to beat and get passion and fight installed in to all the players. McInnes, Wright, Mcleash people of that type. I, de also like to see Barry Ferguson come to Ibrox in some capacity.



26 Oct 2017 22:45:03
Billy Davies all day long for me. Do u really think he would put up with the half-hearted performances we have seen this season. Get him now. Has been outstanding in England and knows what's expected at Rangers.



27 Oct 2017 06:28:58
Here here Dutch! Billy davies's managerial record speaks for itself mate! I got to laugh at a good few on here who continually bring up his personal life, with most of it being bull! Anyway i don't care about what he does in his spare time but i sure as hell know he's a terrific manager/ coach! that's all i'm interested in, if he became our manager! With his quality he wouldn't be long in winning the doubters over!



27 Oct 2017 06:55:53
And the media would go into a frenzy with his "private life" as you call it, that's all we need more media attention for the wrong reasons, Davies is a bum that's why he's not managed a team for 3 or 4 years, no thanks for Davies for me we have to aim a bit higher than him



27 Oct 2017 07:40:46
@robbie c - BF? What has he done as a manager that he deserves a role at Rangers?
McLeish? Done hee haw since winning the old League Cup with Birmingham.
McInnes has won 1 trophy out of 9 since 2013 ( same with Wright ) . You telling me he's good enough to manage Rangers?



27 Oct 2017 08:16:52
Without doubt Union Jack, anyone of them will do a way better job than PC and MW. And as for BF he was a winner as a player and a Ranger through and through just the type of people we need in and around the place in my opinion



27 Oct 2017 11:09:57
our fans don't want someone better than PC they want better than Brenda



27 Oct 2017 11:27:28
Union jack, forget what the media think or print! If its the correct candidate then that's all that matters! F*** the media! They print what they want anyway!



26 Oct 2017 22:05:56
I know there's no chance but I'd love to see Van Bronckhurst but with him going safe and steady with Feyenoord there's prob next to no chance of getting him other than that I would go for Ian Ferguson or Stephen Robinson of Motherwell. Ferguson because i think he's had a decent career as a manager down under and he'd give the underperformers a kick up the are and he'd a bear through and through and Robinson basically due to the way he's turned Motherwell round from relegation fodder to a team ready to fight for everything on a shoestring budget (What we'll probably need at present and by all accounts he done a great job the the northern Ireland unders) but think if the board do go for him wait until January and get him and he will prob the go straight in for Moult and it also allows him to have his day at hampden against Celtic but then of Motherwell were to win the cup prob no chance but failing that what about Kilnsman?



27 Oct 2017 05:39:09
Ian ferguson is a legend and one of my all time favourites I'd have him as manager no problem the man is a hero and would install fear of losing into this team



27 Oct 2017 07:42:26
utter tosh, robinson of motherwell take moult out of the team and they are crap team of thugs, van bronk no interest in scottish football, ferguson would not leave oz, only one man big sam no nonsense taken gets players to work hard for each other, works from the back might get a few of the slackers to actually play for each other instead of the odd game here and there



26 Oct 2017 21:49:13
Good luck to Graeme Murty on Saturday, hopefully he can get the team on to winning ways and maybe even get some of his under 20’s involved. Would love to see Atakayi get some game time.



26 Oct 2017 22:27:40
what was murtys stats again with the seniors?



27 Oct 2017 00:19:52
Lost the first 2 then managed to get the players to show a little bit and get a draw at Parkhead and a couple of good wins



26 Oct 2017 20:53:42
Big decisions ahead for the board and where the club goes from here! Since Dave King and co swept to power there's been many mistakes made. Warburton got us to where we wanted to be, however, once there he was never good enough and had to go. Pedro! Well, that was one complete and utter balls up from the start! If true, I hear his appointment was all down to Douglas Park and his son who put up the transfer funds and they will also cover the cost of his pay off. This info came from a former player who was knocked back for the coaching role that went to JJ. And by all accounts, the rest of the board had to get a guarantee the Park's would cover the cost of any pay off before they gave the go ahead for him to sign. That proves how much of a bloody risk this was and the lack of faith the rest of the board had with his appointment. I Honestly thought when Rangers men got back control of our great club the days of playing silly and dangerous ganes we endured with Whyte and Green would be long gone. How wrong was I.
FFS Rangers we don"t ask much! All we ask this time is to get it right!



26 Oct 2017 21:39:53
First thoughts NO to Eck and Davies, maybe to Big Sam or O’Neil, not sure about McInnes. Ranieri could be a risk not worth taking. Would maybe like Amorouso as part of network for contacts



26 Oct 2017 21:52:09
I think your info could be spot on slk, time for Graeme Park to lay off Championship Manager!



26 Oct 2017 22:23:59
Feel a bit sorry for Pedro he has had a tad of misfortune, I have been one of the guys who backed him the whole time he was in charge however after the Kilmarnock game well am sure everyone on here would agree we either went out and gave Kilmarnock a doing or it was curtains, well the rest is history so on to the next manager how long this one guys because I’m going to give you’s a reality check, we are not getting near Celtic not for a long time, ”unless” some miraculous Arab comes in and splashes the dough and I doubt very much this will happen so for me it would need to be a manager like Micheal O’neil or the Iceland manager would maybe even consider Wee Strachan!



26 Oct 2017 22:30:41
Sounds terrible state we are in but I feel the players let us down big time. I was all for Pedro to go but also the board taking punts and giving him cash to buy dross is worse. Hope we get decent scouting system in place and recruit better players which includes more cash. Dig deep board. Yous blundered



27 Oct 2017 00:23:50
We're in a worse state than I thought, when People are advocating Chesney lol



27 Oct 2017 07:36:50
Would that former player be Barry blue.
He is tight with DP and GP and Kenny Miller



27 Oct 2017 08:10:14
i also heard that about Park slk

new man must be british for a start so no to ranieri / gio

martin o’neill and chesn people at the wind up?
jobs too big for mcinnes or tommy wright if you as ask me sorry just way i see it need someone who’s dealt with pressure at a big club

Big Sam or Davies for me - if the former he must have an assistant who knows about scot football ie alex rae

we desp need to get some experience and passion back at our club - some stability wld be nice too

over to you King



27 Oct 2017 08:59:41
No mate, not Barry. The guy in question is friendly with my wife's uncle and is part of a group of business men and former old firm players who are involved with a football team in East Kilbride. The info is 100% mate as the guy is still well in at Ibrox. The fact that the Park's have wasted so much money on this is totally unacceptable! Serious questions are mounting over the boards ineptitude to question, and deal with this farce! For every step we take going forward, there is looks like there are always two steps back just round the corner. Mine, like many more of my fellow Rangers supporters patience is Waring thin and things need to change now!



26 Oct 2017 20:28:12
Hello fellow bears. Never like to see someone be sacked but we are Rangers.

Our next manager has to be high calibear and able to out think Brenda. The board and us fans need to settle down and let the board get on with finding the new manager.

I personally would not touch any of the managers mentioned on here like McInnes, Wright, big Sam etal.

Celtic put the boat out and look unfortunately what has happened to them.



26 Oct 2017 21:01:17
chris coleman, michael o'neill it has to be someone who is going to be able to attract players to our club in the transfer window and i don't see the likes of mcleish and mcinnes being able to attract the calibre of player we need at the moment. also another name not being mentioned what about claudio ranieri. whoever it is this is the last chance the board have to get it right so no matter how long it takes we need the right guy.



27 Oct 2017 07:43:17
Coleman and O'Neil have no record of club management worth talking about. That's vitally important to us right now.



26 Oct 2017 20:19:42
If we are not going to win the league, does it really matter if finish 2nd or 3rd. Not saying wouldn't either wat but why not give Murty job for as long required this season and get the right manager in at the summer, for me Michael O'neil who might be available sooner if they don't qualify. He lives in Scotlnd, knows the game here and makes a team better than the sum of its individuals!

For box office and a bit of glamour, I would like to see Ranieri. Big Sam would do a job, and although not a fan Pardew might want to rebuild his reputation a bit like Rodgers.

No matter take time and get it right.



27 Oct 2017 00:19:52
Ranieri lol and big Sam lol that kind of stuff is what killed Rangers.



27 Oct 2017 07:34:52
If Rangers could get O'Neil the problem is solved. Fantastic manager



26 Oct 2017 20:16:33
Looking at the list of potential next managers and not many inspire me. If King and the boaRd were to somehow come up with a decent bit of change why has no one mentioned (even simply for a discussion topic) Thomas Tuchel? McInnes, Wright, no thanks. Big Sam, doubtful will step into another club hence he is spouting about US job, Pardew, he's just an English Pedro spouting nonsense and squaring up to opponents. Tuchel would unlikely come to us with Everton sniffing about but talking up McInnes Wright etc are you kidding me?



26 Oct 2017 20:11:01
For me in this current climate the only can be Alex McLeish he's the man for me alongside Dean Windass so he can kick his son's arse! Maybe get a performance or two out of him!



26 Oct 2017 21:10:16
Aye that Sounds like a dream team and a half am on board 👍🏻



27 Oct 2017 07:39:25
Windass needs his arse kicked out of the club



26 Oct 2017 20:10:20
The problem is whoever we appoint has to have the clout to bring in good players. Alves was a surprise although after Sunday's fight he might want to go. So it has to be tried and test but with stock. Alves and Billy Davis fecking having a laugh. 😂😂😂

Just remember. Celtic had Sinclair and Roberts on both he bench last night. Time for reality at board level and get the finger out.



27 Oct 2017 00:35:36
Remember what I have no interest who Celtic have on their bench get a grip



27 Oct 2017 11:16:53
"Remember what I have no interest who Celtic have on their bench get a grip"
Stop being childish. We are not in a league of our own. You should have some interest in all of the teams we share a league with. How can you make any sensible comment when you don't know the whole picture. Don't you think it is important for the future league games to know that Celtic brushed aside their and our top rival with two big players on the bench.
Get a grip.



26 Oct 2017 20:05:55
Let us see this time around how ambitious our board really are, failed with McCall, failed with Warburton and failed with Pedro, I believe this will be there very last chance or they too will be out the door.



26 Oct 2017 18:46:56
As I don't think we'll be going for anyone who's already employed (paying PC and his staff off plus a new managers current club) I think Billly Davies will be announced very soon. Not sure how I feel about this just yet but I think it's nailed on, would be a lot cheaper than some names mentioned as he's been out of work for so long, we all know he went for the Hearts job too so he's obviously keen to start ASAP. Please please please don't brink big Ek in though.



26 Oct 2017 18:52:32
Billy Davies I really hope not. That would be us resigned to mediocrity. Absolutely terrible appointment. Any man who can identify tommy Sheridan by his erection only has no place at Rangers.



26 Oct 2017 18:57:49
Think he's a dead cert aswell mate! I'd like Coleman tbh always speaks well a day has done fantastic job on international scene



26 Oct 2017 19:50:58
Alex neil? Would anyone give him a shot? Not sure if he has a new job. He certainly knows scottish football plus he might even still be fitting enough to pulling his boots on for a shift lol



26 Oct 2017 20:10:49
I think Alex Neil is a good shout!



26 Oct 2017 20:17:39
Billy Davies, the man who was knocked back for Killie and St. Mirren position are you kidding me?



26 Oct 2017 20:18:01
Certainly hope it's not Davis it's such a backward step plus he's absolutely gash. Those on the board need shot for appointing an unknown unproven person like Pedro in the first place especially after Warburton with the Joey debacle. From day one Pedro was been cannon fodder for arseholes like Chris Shatton to snipe away at us. plus the Scottish 'unbiased' media. this ex Dhim pundit who sounds like he suffers from uncontrollable piles or constipation when he speaks suddenly finds projectile verbal dihorrea when he addresses anything Rangers. For me. for a new manager it's got to be closer to home and somebody who understands the SPL so it has to be somebody like Tommy Wright or Murty/ Miller which I know I'll get shot down for on this site but we don't have any money. we can't afford the other names being bandied about. Feck knows what team well put out on Sat against the Jambos but with injuries and suspensions it doesn't look good. its a mess and for us Rangers fans we've suffered enough. plus hearing all the unwashed comments about us being cheats over EBTs it's like open season. and hard to take. wtf is Ryan Jack upto as well getting involved in stuff any Rangers player should walk away from. its embarrassing from players who are dyed in the wool Rangers supporters. we've had The media daily rebel BBC et all and refs (Im thinking about Hibs game Motherwell and last night where we should've had more protection from officials) it just looks like we're playing into all these people's hands and making it hard for ourselves. the next appointment needs to be home based and no more moles in the dressing room everybody should be behind our team. if were ever going to go forward again. let's get Miller Wallace and Krancjar back onside as we need to be a tough unit. i'm really pissed off from the last couple of years embarrassments. We are a team with high standards and world records. let's get back to these high standards again please. sensible decisions from the board this time please. We are Glasgow Rangers so let's all be united as Rangers fans



26 Oct 2017 21:21:35
I would go for Tommy Wright think the guy deserves a shout at a big club and know the Scottish game and worked well with a small budget so who knows with a sizeable budget, I think he would do well.



26 Oct 2017 21:38:50
Good post mate👍



27 Oct 2017 07:33:37
That's a belter c-bear! Lol 😂



26 Oct 2017 18:46:45
Can I just say to people like fodtheprod you were bang on all along. so fair play. I was wrong use were right guys.



26 Oct 2017 18:24:05
What about Tony pulis for the next manager.



26 Oct 2017 18:58:31
No chance he will leave prem



26 Oct 2017 19:44:35
Not a chance lmfas



26 Oct 2017 18:23:33
for me the rangers board need take a long hard look at them selves they have apointed 2 managers that seemed to be out there deph at the club nowhere near good enough still waiting on this scouting network been set up
who ever is making these decsions is costing the club big money
next apointment has to be right for the future of our club



26 Oct 2017 19:50:00
next appointment by the board must be right

Our board need to show ambition and sign the right man that can last longer than 7 or 15 months as the managerial
metro round is costing us a fortune

For me next manager needs to have proven track record of success, he must have worked for a big club to have tie right mentality and he must be British

Big Sam for me



26 Oct 2017 20:20:44
I agree with what you're saying Trev in the most part but what big club has big Sam managed? Good manager with the right mentality but his epl experience is with middle of table teams at best.



26 Oct 2017 22:27:33
big sam or ranieri would be terrific managers for the job failing that mcinnis could do a good job

Ferenc Puskas

26 Oct 2017 18:43:59
{Ed's Note - we have posted a new player profile about, Ferenc Puskas



26 Oct 2017 18:35:31
I think the board need to look hard at why and how they appointed Pedro in the first place and then allow him to spend the fans season ticket money £10 million when they would not give Warburton a third of that.

They need to get help with the recruitment from experienced Rangers football people - Walter Smith, Gough, Souness and others.
We cannot afford to make this mistake again or it's all over for us.



26 Oct 2017 18:43:52
spot on they also need sort our scouting out pronto to help the new manager



26 Oct 2017 18:44:22
That's a good post. lots of fans will be thinking the same as you. I. ll tell you one thing the board better get the next appointment right or the fans might turn on the board. tough decision now lies ahead



26 Oct 2017 18:24:33
First time poster. After Pedro failure and money given to him by board should we go down this route. Spend money on a manager who. Is the RIGHT long term appointment rather than a short term fix. Therefore I'd rather see money spent on paying wages for McInnes and compensation to Aberdeen rather than a more short term appointment. To do this the transfer budget for team in January and next summer would have to suffer but at least long term plan in place for Manager. Getting McInnes will be difficult but I believe we should at least attempt to get him this time. Anyway at least right decision has been made by board this afternoon. in sacking Pedro. 7 month's and couldn't win 3 matches in a row.



26 Oct 2017 18:51:37
The board must get the next appointment right. this decision is massive. personally i would go for big eck with Barry Ferguson as no2 or if they push the boat out go for Michael o. Neil from northern Ireland



26 Oct 2017 18:20:34
who would you like to see as next manager. my personal opinion of realistic targets are
A. Sam Allardyce
B. Alan Pardew
C. Alex Mcleish
D. Frank de Boer
E. Craig Shakespeare
F. Alex Neil
G. Mike Phelan
H. Walter Mazzarri (would like him)
I. Nigel Pearson
J. Paulo Bento (possibly not)

for me going the route of an SPL Manager is not going forward.
what are thoughts of others.

Next Rangers Manager Poll

26 Oct 2017 18:34:05
Neil Lennon



26 Oct 2017 18:34:52
Dick Advocaat?



26 Oct 2017 19:24:43
Gio vanBronckhorst. Carlo Ancelotti. :) Maybe Brendan Rodgers will apply, after all he's always wanted to manage the biggest club in Scotland :)



26 Oct 2017 18:03:30
Just to throw another name into the hat! How does everyone think of Alex Neil, a good young manager that played good football and on a tight budget



26 Oct 2017 19:34:56
As long as it's not Billy Davies if he was to come in I think it would e worse than pedro



26 Oct 2017 20:23:45
McInnes would be a good choice for me as i don't see him as a risk or Big Sam who knows how to set a side up, . think also Wright could do a job . definitely not Davies . please! What we need is someone to make us hard to play against and get the fear factor back. And get the best out the players we have ie play in their proper position! Brenda refocused delilas team and look how they cam on!



26 Oct 2017 17:36:44
WE WILL end up with Graham Murty till the end of the season. (cheapest option) .
And to appease the masses he`ll give us some line of shite about a big name he`s hoping to bring in or something.
Dream on fellas there no De Boars or pardews etc coming here.
i`d be pleased to see big Alex walking in the front door.



26 Oct 2017 17:54:20
would no be surprised if its big sam. not an expensive option. in all honesty a de boer type is not what we need. its digging deep and winning. we have to start putting a run of wins together whither its 5 x 1-0 we just have to win.



26 Oct 2017 18:53:37
Jamie there is no chance big sam would take the job. Whom ever it is won't lsdt 12 months anywzy till Rangers fans understand that the road to recovery is years awzy and is only starting now due to 2 wasted years. No furher forward than when warburton came in. Murty will get it for now.



26 Oct 2017 16:58:41
pedro was a likeable guy and calling him all the names under the sun is being very disrespecting. as a manager he does say strange things. unfortunatley it hasn't worked out. but as supporters let's wish him well. i wasnt a fan of his but do not believe in calling him an imposter etc etc. the players have to take massive responsibility for this as well.



26 Oct 2017 17:24:22
Jamie, I agree. Pedro was not an imposter and I genuinely believe he gave it his best. Unfortuneately that wasnt good enough and although I am normally of the belief we need to give managers time I think the right decision was made. Good luck to Pedro in the future.



26 Oct 2017 17:27:43
I don’t think it is disrespectful Jamie judging and criticising him. How do u know he’s a nice guy? He fell on his own sword by his recruitment, words and more importantly results



26 Oct 2017 17:39:30
couldnt agree more. was time for him to go but can't hold anything against him for grabbing a massive opportunity and although it didn't work out, i have no doubt he gave the job his all. that's all we can ask for and there are definitely a few players in that squad who if they were honest should be taking a very hard look at themselves.



26 Oct 2017 17:54:03
I never wanted him in the first place and although I did initially think he was a nice enough guy I soon realised he was just an egotistical *****. The way he treated Kenny Miller was a disgrace as well as singling out British players for criticism and trying to make them sound xenophobic.

And then there's his tactics. Or lack of them.

Delighted to see the back of him and pity whoever is daft enough to give him a job.



26 Oct 2017 18:34:11
He was just useless and should never have got the job. The worst managerial appointment in the clubs history.



26 Oct 2017 18:30:25
can we stop all this miller pish. no matter now as pedro is gone. for what its worth the british/ xenophobic dig was twisted words from the record. if you buy into what they say to sell papers more fool you.



26 Oct 2017 18:51:42
sparky your the worst wanabee gers fan i have ever read posts from 100 per cent negativity



27 Oct 2017 07:30:52
Trueblue

Really? I said Pedro was the wrong appointment and got abuse from people like you. I had to take all sorts of rubbish of people like you. Where is Pedro now? You can call me negative all you want but today proved I was accurate.



26 Oct 2017 16:45:33
So Pedro and his 3 banditos out the door!

I would give it to McLeish until the end of the season supported by Murty, Miller and Barry Ferguson.

Then weigh up where we have reached at the end.

I would like to see Johannsen get more involved in who we bring in. I think he may have an eye for a player.



27 Oct 2017 07:27:39
Ferguson worse than Mcoist would be. What about Lemon lmao. How cool would that be against tha Mankies



26 Oct 2017 16:43:06
Billy Davies has confirmed he is interested 😂😂 no thanks you little rocket.



26 Oct 2017 17:42:02
i Would be devastated if he got it and he’s not managed for about 3 year there is a reason for that if we took him it would be a penny pinching appointment



26 Oct 2017 18:37:57
That's all we'd need the press would have a field day with his private life! . no thanks



26 Oct 2017 16:31:49
Has anyone got Carlo Ancelotti's number?



26 Oct 2017 17:13:14
Hahahaha that's the best one yet . How much you got hid in the biscuit tin?



26 Oct 2017 17:58:11
A few crumbs and a stale jaffa cake.



26 Oct 2017 16:26:17
I think Tommy Wright would be a good shout. His teams are usually pretty solid.



26 Oct 2017 17:17:54
We don't want managers who are pretty solid we want managers who can win titles!



26 Oct 2017 18:34:36
Carlo ancelotti couldn't handle a real team with real expectations.



26 Oct 2017 18:36:17
Van Bronkhorst wants to manage in Britain. Certainly not Billy Davies or McInness for me



26 Oct 2017 18:43:20
Definitely has to be a proven manager like big Sam Alladyce or someone like that



26 Oct 2017 16:23:01
Will get shot down in flames for this but I don't agree in sacking mangers without atlest giving them a year if it dose not work out time to move



26 Oct 2017 17:07:11
what about the backroom staff, r they gone too?



26 Oct 2017 17:40:49
JJ staying on, Pedro's three- assistant and fitness and goalie coach i think are all gone



26 Oct 2017 17:43:08
Yes bar JJ he staying I think



26 Oct 2017 17:52:50
Yeah didn't we sack a good goalkeeping coach before?



26 Oct 2017 16:13:28
Definitely not Davies or mccleish who are amongst the top favs



26 Oct 2017 18:36:31
How no mcleish? Davies is a warmer but mcleish is a decent manager.



26 Oct 2017 16:02:49
Pedro Sacked, so that's 2 managers that this board has appointed, that have failed, 3rd times a charm!



26 Oct 2017 16:00:59
The club can ill afford to get the next managerial appointment wrong.

It is time to take the best of the homegrown talent / managers about and get them in quickly.

Derek McInnes has to be in the frame for it, and whilst out of work for a while, Billy Davis is a football mad man, and lives and breathes it 24/ 7.



26 Oct 2017 17:35:43
didnt mcinnes sign 3 year contract



26 Oct 2017 16:00:04
Good to see murty back in charge would love him to get a proper go at the top flight.



26 Oct 2017 15:47:40
After Pedros sacking I wonder where we go from here. Glad to see that Graeme Murty is in interim charge as i thought last season he got the team playing for the jersey again. McInnes would be my first choice but I can't see that happening.
As for team selection going forward i would like to see Murty playing Barjonas instead of Jack who has been very very poor. I would have Barjonas and Holt together in centre mid with Dorrans supporting Morelos further forward. When and if Rossiter is fit he would replace Holt in my opinion.
I think Alves may look for a move in January as I believe he was here purely because of Pedro and I hope Pena and Jack both leave in January as well. The rest of the players I think could be decent under a better manager. A bit of wishful thinking expecting Jack to go as I can't see that happening.
Irrespective of what happens in the short term let's get behind the team. Second place is still very much achievable if we sort ourselves out now.



26 Oct 2017 15:58:38
Think your being a bit harsh on Jack



26 Oct 2017 16:59:29
Jack has played well. Just picking up silly bookings



26 Oct 2017 17:12:19
I think that we need to put our best 11 out there negating any politics. Not saying anyone is a world beater but I would like to see most of our players still involved.

Foderingham is ok (just) but there are so many decent keepers down south playing second fiddle (Lindegaard, Vorm, Krul to name a few)

Tav is ok too but I would like to replace Hodson.

Centre backs - I would keep who we have until end of season and then weigh it up.

Wallace, John and Beerman - LB is one of our strongest positions in depth.

Holt, Jack and Dorrans will all improve with some decent leadership.

Herrera and Pena are just not suited to Scottish game. Ship them back or to Spain etc.

Dalcio - Eh mistake!

Miller/ Morelos are ok. More options required - Moult Ideally.

Candeias has been quality but no back up.

Windass - Thinks he is better than he is and is not a team player. Punt him.

Rossiter - Punt too. Waste of a wage.

I would like us to bring in Moult, McLean and Walker.
Walker and Moult ASAP as we need to support Morelos and we need a left sided player.
I would also like to see James MacArthur brought in place of Rossiter.



26 Oct 2017 15:33:25
Graeme Murty back in charge.



26 Oct 2017 15:24:10
So ped is out. can't say I'm disappointed because after his record it was inevitable. Looking forward tho boys, who will take over? McKinnes.? Mcleish.?
Thoughts lads?



26 Oct 2017 16:35:04
Personally i'd try go for redknapp. Celtic Killie Ross county all got gaffers from down south must be on a pretty penny. We need to get it right.



26 Oct 2017 16:42:25
Billy Davies keen on the job but please don't let it be him



26 Oct 2017 16:55:25
Mcinnes definitly not he was out managed tactically last night by Brenda

McLeish naw step back

Tommy wright no as Pedro just beat him

Davies no has never won anything

And any available manager from down south isn't going too come up here

Will be a long road again but if Murty does well when he comes in I would give him it till next summer



26 Oct 2017 15:13:56
The s*n says he’s sacked too. thank fook and good riddance. the biggest imposter since mobi dick was a sardine



26 Oct 2017 15:05:43
At last sense pedro gone let's get some credibility back.



26 Oct 2017 15:00:18
Hes been sacked according to the bbc



26 Oct 2017 15:07:01
Cant see anything official from the club yet maybe he'll do a Breadman and deny it



26 Oct 2017 15:11:20
BBC say sacked, Sky awaiting confirmation



26 Oct 2017 18:15:09
An unmitigated disaster from start to finish the board must take the blame for this why gamble on Pedro made no sense we are now left with the likes of pena herrira (spelling) who will buy them also pay offs for Pedro and his backroom staff I'm guessing that this experiment by the board has cost at least 6 million which we don't have time to get a tried and tested manager in bring back some stability to this once great club and for me the best supporters in the world by a mile



26 Oct 2017 14:55:43
That's Pedro officially sacked!



26 Oct 2017 14:55:23
All the best pedro. Thanks for your efforts.



26 Oct 2017 18:26:05
What efforts? Guy was a clown



26 Oct 2017 14:53:25
Pedro sacked.



26 Oct 2017 14:49:57
Pedro has been sacked and a good move in my opinion the gamble was failing badly.



25 Oct 2017 12:07:42
A wee question to all fellow bears and yourself ED! I would like to get your thoughts here also! Do you reckon, if rangers don't win tonight and on saturday, that pedro caixinha will be sacked? I don't myself! I think he'll be given until the christmas period, at least, to see how results are going and where we're sitting in the league table! that's only my opinion guys, what's yours?



{Ed039's Note - sorry for delay in answering but looks like that question is answered)

26 Oct 2017 13:35:12
All this nonsense about how much it will cost to get shot is trivial. It will cost far more in the long run if the supporters continue to disengage and stop coming to games. We need a manager who can identify the weaknesses of the team and address them. He could start by playing people in their correct positions and find a formation that suits the squad that has been assembled. I’ve seen enough from the players in spurts this season to think we can still have a decent season but the change has to come now.



26 Oct 2017 13:33:52
I honestly think it is time for a change, l don't think Pedro is a people manager. I think we need a no nonsense back to basics type, might not be pretty but we need to stop leaking goals, l also think some of these players are better than recent performances. I get it playing for the jersey should motivate but if they have no faith in the system/ training methods or even the management team, that is as major problem, guess the issue will be paying him/ them off. I cannot see him turning this mess round.



26 Oct 2017 13:25:37
Was the sending off harsh or justified? From where I was I saw the rising of the leg and a push didn't see heads touch. but for broadfoot to go down holding his face the way he did was out of order! . thoughts!



26 Oct 2017 13:40:13
Broad foot is a carthorse and a clown, I’ll never forget him being penalised for a foul throw in the UEFA Cup final. He’s already been banned for simulation against Hearts I think? Mind he blew up an egg with his microvave? Moron



26 Oct 2017 13:46:17
Mind his dive against Celtic all those years ago. He's got form for it.



26 Oct 2017 18:11:02
Broadfoot is a limited player but the guy can only play to his strengths and if that includes underhand tactics who cares, at least he always gave everything for rangers unlike the imposters at the club now. I said it after the hibs game pedro is gone and mcleish will be back at the helm. Steady the ship and hopefully get us to second. A few people on here have said there is a squad in us somewhere it just takes the right manager to find them.



26 Oct 2017 18:20:14
to be fair its Jacks mentality in this is the biggest thing never mind the aberdeen defender. He should be showing restraint and concentrating on the game and not getting sent off attaking the opponent. Shouldnt have spent the money on him- not good enough and being at rangers is putting pressure on him hemce thse silly sending offs



26 Oct 2017 13:23:56
It now looks like pedros time is up. It's a shame if I'm being honest as I wanted it to work out for him but we have to face up to reality now.

So who do we want to see in charge now? Please no one say Wright or mcinnes.

Anyone think big Sam would fancy the move to Scotland? He always set out his teams to be strong and physical and we seem to be missing that.



26 Oct 2017 13:50:07
Big Sam would be an incredible appointment but he would be out of our reach IMO, salary, relocation and transfer kitty would all put Allardyce off I think, however I do think he would be tempted by the lure of Europe and I’m sure he’d back himself to mount a challenge to Celtic.

Of the Scottish contingent I would like Jack Ross at St. Mirren, I think he’s the best up and coming manager in our game and would flourish with our facilities/ budget!

Hope he gets an interview!



26 Oct 2017 14:51:40
Allardyce has said he does not want to manage at club level again.



26 Oct 2017 12:21:04
According to Sky Sports News the Rangers Board are in an unscheduled meeting apparently to discuss the future of Pedro. This was around 40 minutes ago. Maybe something will happen today?



26 Oct 2017 12:29:31
Hopefully he's handed his p45



26 Oct 2017 12:33:02
@Doiger, Pedro must STAY



26 Oct 2017 18:01:58
Pedro will go! And take timalloy with you



26 Oct 2017 18:14:32
A vote of confidence in Pedro. Qatar loans ensures that outcome. we hope and pray.



26 Oct 2017 12:08:39
Surely if we are sacking the manager we should be sacking the players as they haven't shown up all season apart from the St johnston game.

Players win manager lose comes to mind I hope Pedro stays guys been given 3 month with his own squad the first 3 can't count as he inherited the dross.



26 Oct 2017 12:22:00
problem is there is 0 motivation amoungst the squad in general. fitness levels are shockingly poor. they can't press and what really worried me last night 1-0 up with more than 10 mins to go is putting a defensive midfielder on for a cf and praying we don't concede. fair enough away from home but at ibrox we should be pressing.



26 Oct 2017 12:39:11
In my eyes playing for Rangers is the motivation and it's there job.

Would you get away with not trying at work cause you don't like your boss? Ad say 75% of people don't like there boss but still have to do there job the best they can because it's the professional thing to do.

A lot of things are out of Pedros control i. e. Penalty miss jack getting himself sent off and be caught on the break he can't physically go in the pitch and take the penalty or defend his players let him down

20 seconds may have cost him his job and the club 2 million pound



26 Oct 2017 13:05:33
it isn't just those 20 seconds though mate, poor results just keep stacking up and there always seems to be an explanation of how unlucky we are. sunday was a disgrace too and in the past we have reacted after a bad one. things just look to be going bad to worse



26 Oct 2017 14:01:00
Frustrated bear 20 seconds did not cost pedro his job did his tear not get put out of Europe by 4th best team on Luxembourg . did the sheep not beat us at ibrox . have we not been run over easily by the tims. has wee ginger nuts not beaten us. has Louis moult not beaten us in semi who he could have bought for a pittance compared to all the foreign duds he did sign so no 20 seconds did not cost pedro his job



26 Oct 2017 15:37:54
I always want any gers manager to succeed, but in seven months his methods weren't working, I think mainly because of his not understanding Scottish football, I want to see eleven gers players getting stuck into the opposition, not sitting back watching them, and if they were playing that way under orders from him, then he just doesn't get it. let's hope the team can move forward now.



26 Oct 2017 18:13:26
Why are people still defending this clown, I told you's ages ago he wasn't up to it, pena herrera a waste of cash. Who we should have bought etc now the majority are on board with me yet there are a few who still back this clown. Unbelievable.



26 Oct 2017 12:07:35
Right what is king going to do about the situation we are in. He has been at the Well game and last nights game, so he must see for himself that we need major investment as a good majority of these players just don't perform often enough. A team that has been flirting skidding there way out of relegation for the past few years should not be taking points off us. the situation we are in and seem to be getting harder every week is reminiscent of the bad. old days of the early 80s and we don't want to be going back to that.



26 Oct 2017 12:32:07
Pay peanuts get monkeys been saying for ages we need at least 30 million in players to keep up with Celtic but unfortunately that's out of the question



26 Oct 2017 14:15:49
& where? is this investment to come from?



26 Oct 2017 18:17:49
We can't keep up wae half the teams in this league never mind celtic. We don't need 30mil at all, we need to buy the players that I told you's in the summer we needed to buy, could have got them for less than 8mil. Or was I just being negative🤔



26 Oct 2017 11:47:07
Gentlemen, We know the situation and it needs rosolving but now is the time for calm.

Last night i seen something at Ibrox that would never have happened in the past.

We get a penalty and it takes nearly 5 minutes for us to take it. The kilmarnock players took over, created havoc and 2 minutes later its 1-1. Now you might say what the hell has this got to do with anything. The answer is MENTALITY! . We should never have allowed for that nor should be have risen to the bait that led us to finishing with 10men.

Fitness levels are a disgrace. Every player was blootered after 75minutes. The football there after was non existent although i wouldn't exactly say there was much of it before hand.

We need to create that sense of fear at Ibrox again. That fear when the opposition looks a Ranger in the eye he is already beaten.

Forget Mcleish. he's had his stint and the game has moved on remarkably since. Whoever it may be who comes in to replace Pedro rest assured the board MUST get it right or its goodnight Vienna.



26 Oct 2017 12:38:40
How can you appeal for calm then list all the things that are wrong? 2nd was our target this season like it or not pedro has to go before the damage is beyond repair there is not one team in our top flight I'd be confident in beating just now we are direction less. as you say fitness woeful
Saturday for me is the tipping point, If we lose descion to go should be a fornality and be taken out of his control board need to act DOF needs to come out and explain system going on behind scenes with the latest story about Wallace etc being told to stay away



26 Oct 2017 11:47:31
Without giving my age away I'm retired so I know the high's and lows of supporting Rangers. Last night's game was a farce, Ally Scott would look good in that team. The last fifteen minutes we either lost our concentration or tired badly. Never one to keep saying "sack the manager" as the solution to our problems his backers must be getting thin on the ground. On the subway back from the game we all just sat in stunned silence, sums it up really, the support deserve better than this.



26 Oct 2017 11:29:45
This is my first time on here but I just had to come on here and say that I never want to see Windass start for Rangers ever again, I don't mind if he comes on as a sub with 15, 20 minutes to go and we are winning.



26 Oct 2017 12:03:57
100% Agree, he is completely useless. Stealing a wage.



26 Oct 2017 14:53:06
So is pedro. time to go I’m afriad.



26 Oct 2017 11:23:46
I think we should definitely give hardie a shot upfront the boy can put the ball in the back of the net I would drop Windass I think he has had his chance he misses too many sitters put hodgson back in and push Declan into midfield drop Pena for holt sorted.



26 Oct 2017 12:11:09
IF you think that will sort out the current mess then you are off your head! The club is a shambles from top to bottom with the team an embarrassment. Are you seriously trying to tell us that 1 or 2 changes in the lineup will solve that?



26 Oct 2017 18:16:38
I was talking about for last nights game.



26 Oct 2017 11:12:51
Mcleish till summer then michael oneill



26 Oct 2017 11:04:51
I want Pedro to succeed, he has good ideas but if you can't implement or convey those ideas into actions then those good ideas can quickly become wild arsed dreams and they are no use to anyone. So if we want a new manager he needs to be able to put his ideas into practice big sam seems good but the one name mentioned that excites me is Michael o'neil. If we were to sign him out of all we can then that would smash all barriers that darken this club. People who want to spend their time on the terraces spouting bile would need to take stock of themselves, why are you shouting this if the manager is Irish Catholic and especially if he brings success it would then seem even more foolish to spout such nonsense, and because of those people his position could be untenable before even agreeing to the job then there is the backlash in his own country which may come from both sides. I sincerely hope that if Pedro goes this is the man the club go for. We have better players at our disposal than Northern Ireland yet perform nowhere near their level but to get him we must stress that this is about sending a message of intent for direction on and off the pitch and also in streets, pubs and homes bigotry is something from the past not the future. Respect yourself and others.



26 Oct 2017 11:36:00
The end for Pedro is Nigh, he is a man floundering and needs put out his misery. There is no way back for him after last nights very poor response from HIS players to losing the semi final. Although I will not condone ridiculously bad behavior on the field by our players, our manager has set the example as the pressure is obviously too much for him. AS for his reported treatment of the players, allegedly telling some that they should stay away -that is beyond comprehension . IF we get it right manager wise soon/ today, amazingly all is not lost, second place is very much still on. Over to you Mr King and the board!



26 Oct 2017 11:58:42
I've resisted jumping on the "Pedro must go" bandwagon up till now but think the board must decide at their meeting that they must admit they made a terrible mistake and tell him his time's up. I like the guy and was desperate for him to succeed particularly given the way he's been treated by the very parochial Scottish media (although some of his eccentric utterances haven't helped him) but there comes a time when the board has to say"Naw Pedro this isn't nae workin'"I still worry they might not as where's the money coming from to pay off him and his sizeable entourage. Find it they must as otherwise it will only get worse



26 Oct 2017 12:09:26
Gary75

What good ideas did Pedro have?



26 Oct 2017 11:10:12
the fact that Pedro is still there this morning speaks volumes for our finances.
King has no money and the club have even less, so they are between a rock and a hard place.
We can't afford to get rid of him and we can't afford to keep him, for a man who seriously preferred Celtic before he arrived at Ibrox he really HAS screwed us big style. Without a new sugar daddy we are banjaxed because we cannot move on until we find a way to get shot of him.



26 Oct 2017 11:50:07
Well we will find out this afternoon if they have money supposedly meeting of board after 2



26 Oct 2017 12:10:00
There is apparently a board meeting today to discuss the managers future. Surely that has to mean the end for this clown and the circus he has brought



26 Oct 2017 13:18:51
ritchie, preferred celtic? because he worked for a feeder, really? what about miller then? mo johnston etc. your loyal to who pays your mortgage simply as that



26 Oct 2017 11:03:35
Wonder what the team will be on Saturday? Between injuries suspensions and the manager falling out with players I think we might struggle to put a team out. Sure there are a lot of players the manager could falll out with between now and Saturday. Seems to be the only thing he is good at.



26 Oct 2017 11:48:57
Whatever our team is for the hearts game at murrayfield on saturday, there's 2 names that HAVE to start in our midfield, jason holt and jamie barjonas! Holt gives our midfield so much energy, while jamie barjonas reminds me a wee bit of barry ferguson, he's got a terrific future in front of him! Barjonas always finds pockets of space and isn't afraid to take the ball in tight areas! The young lad is a smashing player!



26 Oct 2017 10:58:12
I want Pedro to succeed, he has good ideas but if you can't implement or convey those ideas into actions then those good ideas can quickly become wild arsed dreams and they are no use to anyone.

26 Oct 2017 11:12:36
I'd take the pope's wee brother, if he could put brenda's gas at a peep!
ps. Expect a lot of stick gary, I do.



26 Oct 2017 10:55:18
Surely Barry Ferguson can't be slagged off as a managerial failure after trying to manage a pub team, Clyde. At least he would instill a bit of dig and pride, which is sadly lacking. Not saying he should be number 1, but surely would be an asset



26 Oct 2017 11:15:22
Agree Gordy, we need more Blue Noses on coaching staff and on the pitch.



26 Oct 2017 10:30:43
Does make me laugh when I read "Get moult, walker, McLean" in as though this is a done deal, u really think these three decent players are going to come to the FGR at this moment, you can bet there agents have already got them some cushy number in the championship, more money less hassle from so called supporters, look how its worked out for dorrans and jack, rangers supporters going back to help out, criticism for them is gathering as well.



26 Oct 2017 12:08:25
Jack has been sent off 3 times already can you explain how that is helping out as you put it?



26 Oct 2017 10:09:45
Hands up, I was a Pedro appologist.
Needs to go now, had a fair crack at it.
I suspect the next appointment will be a "safe pair of hands" to steady the ship. Given our lack of funds and the players we currently have, who could:
Get the most out of the players
Improve the squad in January
Be affordable
Want the job.?

Personally I think an ex player, interim manager in the mould of McLiesh would make sense then see where we are at the end of the season. Would he or anyone else accept that? Dunno.



26 Oct 2017 10:38:24
walter mazzarri would be great for long term. or maybe mike phelan



26 Oct 2017 12:15:17
Mike phelan? u at it?



26 Oct 2017 09:35:09
If peadro goes. Who's the choice of replacement? Mine would be harry redknapp with Ferguson his assistant.



26 Oct 2017 10:49:48
Lets hire a tax dodger and a bankrupt there's a joke in there somewhere for the tims



26 Oct 2017 11:01:20
Frustrated Bear

So are you saying it’s more important to avoid getting slagged off by Celtic supporters than picking the right manager?



26 Oct 2017 11:28:57
I never said don't pick them because of that mate . I still don't want either of them harry has no long been sacked he hasn't really ever done well with being backed by money and Barry is a beanb*g who thinks he is Mr Rangers he's a youth coach at best



26 Oct 2017 08:48:08
Calamero you've been awfully quiet! You hiding away with Highlandger?



26 Oct 2017 10:37:31
Highlandger now there’s a blast from the past! He’s not been seen or heard of since before the champs swatted them aside! I seem to remember he was making some rather crazy predictions back then but not a peep since! 😂😂😂😂



26 Oct 2017 12:09:05
Not the only one guilty of stupid predictions on this site but like most Pedro apologists strangely quiet again last night. Have said from day 1 this was a ridiculous appointment and it just gets worse and worse. Not only should the Manager be removed but also the people on the board who appointed him. Has to be the most bizarre managerial appointment in the history of the club



26 Oct 2017 01:43:40
Ok so if the board do react and end Pedros tenure, who should be brought in?
McInnes is no for me, if he had won the league or a cup or even beaten Celtic once or twice then maybe.
I also don't believe that bringing back McLeish or Walter is the answer either.
De Boer style of play just wouldn't work with current set of players and it's not suited to Scottish football.
Seriously and realistically who should be brought in and who would want this job? Do we go foreign or British?



26 Oct 2017 06:18:39
I would say it has to be a British manager. If Pedro is away, it needs to be someone that can go in and get the best out of players that they haven't signed. Might be over ambitious, but I can't think of anyone that would be able to do that more than Sam Allardyce.



26 Oct 2017 07:27:32
Pedro needs to go now! If we're honest the warning signs were there last season when he took over from Warburton. The guy's record is abysmal with no sign of improving. Where do we go? We need a manager we've heard of for a start! I've heard people mention bid Sam on here. Do we really want another money grabbing shady character involved with our club? For me, it's a no! It's big Eck for me.



26 Oct 2017 08:02:01
Got to be Michael O'neil, look how he's made northern Ireland so hard to beat



26 Oct 2017 08:11:57
I'd give Ronald Koeman a chance, but would prefer a Rangers minded gaffer. 3 times we have tried a foreign manager and 2 have spectacularly failed.



26 Oct 2017 08:50:57
Michael O'Neill is a great shout mate and would be a fantastic signing. The problem here is we need to get someone in right now to try and stop the rot. As much as I would love to see O'Neill, do you honestly think he would give up the chance of getting N. Ireland to a world cup to come to us? The days we can get guys to choose us over everything else are long gone! And as for Koeman - where do I start!



26 Oct 2017 09:20:05
ChorleyGer, you'd give Keoman a chance?

He was on over 6m a year at Everton. Categorically not happening mate.



26 Oct 2017 09:29:52
Got to be big sam allerdyce he said he would be interested in scotland job last week



26 Oct 2017 09:39:41
Can't believe people are mentioning big eck the guy couldn't manage a team in Egypt. For me I would look at pardew good British manager with murty as his no2.



26 oct 2017 09:55:58
rtid ----- sam allardyce with duncan ferguson in his management team



26 Oct 2017 10:16:09
FAm thinking along the likes of Alan Pardew, Billy Davies and such their is plenty of experienced managers out there. Surly one must be able to get it right and the board must get it right this time



26 Oct 2017 10:22:24
It’s time for Pedro to go he’s had a fair chance board have backed him got players he wanted they don’t seem to be playing for him his tactics aren’t good his methods of management are poor hopefully the board can see what us supports see and bring his tenure to a end today+Murty would be better he has tactical awareness passion knows the club could organise the team better get them fitter+add a few Scottish lads in January+not many good managers available who could take us forward ( big Sam I think would be great but don’t think he would come due to finances) have supported RANGERS since a kid now 52 so have seen some of the best players and teams RANGERS have had and over the past few years some of the worst heres hoping onwards and upwards 🇬🇧🇬🇧

Big Eck til the end of the season. he showed when he came in the 1st time he could get the best from the under achievers



26 Oct 2017 11:59:30
Whoever it is they will need to be fluent in Portuguese as well as English



26 Oct 2017 12:03:48
We won't get Allardyce (retired), O'Neil (won't leave NI before WC) or Koeman (pretty sure he fancies himself to be Barcelona manager) . De Boer there's maybe a slight chance after his Palace disaster but like you said Scotty would the style of play work? As for a Rangers minded gaffer, the only decent ones are retired. Pedro's not doing well, but I think we'd be worse off sacking him paying compensation, replacing him with another gamble, buying a new team, waiting for it to gel, failing, and starting again. Need patience.



26 Oct 2017 12:03:58
Either Giovanni van Bronkhorst, Sam Allardyce, Alan Pardew or a punt on the Leeds Manager (sorry can’t remember his name) Wolves manager



26 Oct 2017 12:05:40
Its mcleish I said this months ago, he had been on standby incase things don't work.



26 Oct 2017 00:15:56
This is an absolute disaster 10 games in.

The standard of player is better than last season but I don't think they are playing for the manager. How can Kilmarnock be first t just about every ball in the second half? With the players we have? They cannot be playing for him or the pressure at playing infront of their own fans is too much. which could explain our good away record and shocking home one, also Hampden on Sunday? Just a thought.

I believe we can pick up with this group of players if the right man is brought in who makes us hard to beat first and foremost and makes a system work.



26 Oct 2017 11:53:30
Confidence comes from the manager which we clearly don't have. just look at the smelly mhob, exact same players but a manager that instills a great belief in them. Reports aswell that Wallace and Niko were told to stay away from the game last night, i'm sorry but yer times up Pedro👋🏻👋🏻



26 Oct 2017 12:55:03
Pardew is a good shout as well



26 Oct 2017 00:15:39
If the board are to get rid of PC then who is the SAFEST option to go for next? . my gut feeling is McInnes as he has shown he knows how to consistently beat the rest of the teams in the league. Fair enough he hasn't beaten Celtic under BR yet but who has. and look at he 'resources'. Also, this appointment would upset the season for Aberdeen who have been creating a gap between us and them.

So, question is, after that huge experimental blunder by the board who is their SAFEST option for now?



26 Oct 2017 07:23:00
I don'tthink we can afford to bring in McCinnes. The safest option for me is McLiesh till the end of the season and would like to see Barry as his assistant



26 Oct 2017 10:19:01
Were all forgetting one thing here. The board have no money to pay off pedro and his 3 assistants. I'd keep big JJ as he is a rangers man though and could help with transition of a new manager if we get one.



26 Oct 2017 11:54:16
I think McCinnes is a good shout and i don't buy into this crap that he's not wonanything and he's not beat BR. Big Eck hadnt won anything and took Hibs down yet he came and won 7 trophies against the best Selik side in 40yrs including a treble then you have wee Chesney who was honking at Southampton and Coventry and got them relegated yet comes up here and wins 3 in a row



25 Oct 2017 23:45:13
Awk I feel deflated after those 2 games I'm proper lost on what to think. Honestly we've got a team in us but it's no clicking we're no taking our chances then we get frustrated and let the heat get to our heads. Make stupid decisions then a game we should have put to bed is turned on it side and we start chasing it. The rangers mentality isn't there. No calamity no control and teams are starting to exploit it. Where do we go from here? Do we sack Pedro do we keep him? If he leaves who replaces him? If he doesn't sort the problems do we sack him too? Honestly half of me wants him out because I don't hink he has control of the players and don't think he is installing the right mentality while the other half doesn't know if we can get anyone else in to sort it out and maybe it's jist me hoping but I still want him to do well and turn things around. He's had my support but watching these games is ruining my day and spending half the day in a mood being aww gloom isn't fun.



26 Oct 2017 08:47:13
If the rumour is true that Lee Wallace our captain was told to stay away from last nights game then he has completely lost the dressing room and the plot! Wtf is going on



26 Oct 2017 11:55:20
Good point JG but i'd agree with your 1st half abt Pedro losing control, the majority of the players have lost faith in him and he didn't help himself with his comments after the Well game. of course u want him to do well as any decent Bear would but i just think he's losing the place abit. the nxt guys got to be Brittish based who knows the game like the back of his hand. NO MORE RISKS🙏



26 Oct 2017 12:04:40
Scotty123

Lee Wallace, Miller and Krancjar all apparently told to stay away. Throw in fall outs with O’Halloran and Forrester and you can see the manager has lost the plot. The club is a shambles just now and the manager an embarrassment. His position is untenable



26 Oct 2017 12:06:25
My thoughts exactly mate wtf is going on at ibrox now? Bunch of looneys doing what they want.



25 Oct 2017 23:28:32
After yet another poor result when is any Rangers manager going to give youth a chance? I keep reading on here too young, not ready but the last five years has been essentially the same rubbish. Somebody tell me please how the like of Hardie, Burt, Barjonas, Beerman and others could do worse? I thought before that Pedro should stay until Christmas but what is the point if you can't beat the team that is bottom of the league and we are already 8 points behind Septic? I'd never heard of Warburton or Caixhina before they were given the precious job of managing our great team so how about getting a manager we've heard of? Get big Eck in now at least util the end of the season and Barry Ferguson as his no. 2. Cant' be any worse!



26 Oct 2017 07:13:46
Have to disagree with you mate. Firstly like all clubs, we have to manage our youngsters game time otherwise they will peak way too early. I feel our youth need time to mature and learn from the seniors at our club.

Secondly, Big Eck and Barry Ferguson? Tell me how successful they have been as managers. McLeish is past it in my opinion, he's not had a successful spell for yonks and Ferguson is waaay to un experienced in my opinion for the job yet.

I personally feel if Pedro is to go, we need to invest in a top class manager to sort our side out but what's the chances of that happening? And in reality, who will even want the rangers job at the moment?



26 Oct 2017 08:24:03
The way the confidence drained from that team last night, the writing is on the wall. Seen it play out before. It's only when and not if Pedro goes.

The obvious answer is give Murty the job til end of season and take it from there.

With the dof in place we should retain some continuity of philosophy, so shouldn't be a full rip up and start again job.



26 Oct 2017 09:10:30
Wouldn't disagree about Murty Mols73, I've suggested it before too.



25 Oct 2017 23:21:58
What is it with Jack? Does he have an inferiority complex or something? It seems he has to prove how hard he is by getting involved and pushing his head towards people. Well du know what son, I don't care how hard you are, I care that you are professional and keep the head, see out the game and win it. You're not in a school playground, did big Kirk say his da was harder than yours? That goal was Jack's fault pure and simple and it's just not good enough.



26 Oct 2017 06:24:43
Did he act like a dick when he was with Aberdeen.?
For me, he's a bit like walker and McLean, I can't see what the fuss is about these guys. At least moult is making a name for himself for the right reasons., Which means we've no chance of getting him now.
Always an optimist and always a bear but my, my it's getting difficult



26 Oct 2017 06:30:06
Candy-arses fault. Should have hit the thing for a start



26 Oct 2017 11:58:59
Poor penalty but it would just have been papering over the cracks. we were garbage and killie merited a point



26 Oct 2017 12:06:52
The penalty was shocking hit with no conviction it barely reached the keeper. Jack is a liability contributes next to nothing then gets sent off yet again.
