Rangers Banter Archive December 08 2017

08 Dec 2017 21:22:03
Look I urge everyone not to believe the media frenzy saying our board and the club's a mess, what a load of rubbish. Rangers are fine believe me. It takes a certain kind of person to manage a club like Rangers someone with a strong personality, charisma, ambition, and be mentally tough, now if Mcinnes wants to wimp out the job like a big girls blouse and stay in his comfort zone up the road then so be it he's not for us, so Rangers we move on to the next man the right man. And I'll back the club in who ever we get in. My pick would be Alex Neil he ticks every box for me. c'mon us.

08 Dec 2017 22:34:30
I don’t consider him an option however he has the character, backs himself to do the business.

I have a feeling about Jack Ross think he is on an upward curve career wise the way McInnes/ Alex Neil types were a few years ago. We need a dynamic manager with new ideas, Gary Johnson of Bristol City is a shout also but he may have suitors down south!

09 Dec 2017 08:52:14
Robbie C if you think the handling of the manager situation is ok your deluded it's been a complete shambles I don't often agree with Barry Ferguson but he got it spot on we will never know why Mcinnes turned it down (he wasn't my first choice) but something happened Rangers were sure they had their man and don't believe there was no contact third parties were involved here as is with all signings the leaks to the media I would lay at that clown Trainers door as well as that childish disgraceful statement released by the club in the aftermath of the rejection I can't believe a board member wrote that concomitant dear Lord it was ment to be a statement to explain what was happening to the fans I bet like me 90% of fans had to dig out the dictionary to understand it so Mr Trainer here is some fans language ( away and bile yir heed) and when your at it clear your locker out and leave our club your an embarrassment to belittle Mcinnes for turning down the job is so so classless it's a total embarrassment I have scratched my brain to think of a name please don't say Murty he has done ok as a stand in but we have a transfer window soon and we need to strengthen you can rest assured Aberdeen will Mcinnes will have been made promises to stay they had a bid turned down for Moult in the summer a player I'd love to have so we need to spend to ensure second so we need a manager in post ready to push on

09 Dec 2017 08:55:41
Why did rangers offer him the job and don't say they didnt. What does that say about the Board?

09 Dec 2017 08:58:55
You were doing fine right up until you mentioned that Rangers hating republican, Neil.

08 Dec 2017 19:24:39
Seems like rangers fc will never recover from 2012. i know lots will disagree but I'm tired of rangers seemingly turning a corner then going several steps back I always support my team 100% but when is this banter era going to end? Hurry up sugar daddy where ever you are someone who invests without loaning money they use there own MONEY .

I wish I won the lotto i seriously would invest a heavy amount to the playing squad and training facilities then oust the non transparent team 😩😩.

08 Dec 2017 19:43:14
So not getting McInnes is the end? Come on get a grip, the board were not given the chance to speak to him because the sheep said no, McInnes decided to stay . his choice! We move on and we will get a manager decided . who knows Murty might earn his chance . Fed up with all these so called pundits and washed up players saying we are a joke becsuse he never signed . we never got permission . he decided to stay . different story if he did talk and refused but that is not the case . We have to stick together as a club, not let our haters divide!

08 Dec 2017 19:57:20
I know what he's talking about, and the answer is no really as hard for some to grasp the very fibre of rangers football club has gone the soul was ripped out and we have been gone for so long our identity has been lost. Money can't bring that back.

08 Dec 2017 19:58:09
Its the fact that the club obviously couldn't come up with the cash to meet his well-documented release clause that's the problem.

If they had, and he'd been allowed to speak to the board but decided not to come then it wouldn't have been such a big deal.

08 Dec 2017 20:25:39
It is up to us the supporters to stand up and NEVER let our identity be lost! Yes we've been down and yes its been a long hardroad back up. But we can never ever stop fighting until we are back to our rightful place. We have to show them although we paid the harshest price in 2012 they never got what they wanted they never beat us . We are rangers and We WILL be back!

08 Dec 2017 20:40:28
So u want a rich benefactor to subsidise you.
Wtf do u lot never learn what's wrong with running your club properly and paying your way .
When the rich kid goes how do u pay anythin. It seems u even want luquidation lol.

08 Dec 2017 21:39:36
A poor Rangers team beat the sheep twice (poor football wise) DM has never got better of the shellic his team has bottled it several times to go top of league in past when they had a good chance of winning league but folded like a cheap suit he is not the answer. DM knows it's win at all costs or it's game over as manager at Rangers and he's bottled it!

08 Dec 2017 22:28:55
Fatherprod can you explain what you mean by our identity has been lost? Our identity remains, that's why every club wants to stick the knife into us "Rangers"

On another issue regarding tMcinnes knocking us back, maybe I am wrong here but I have not seen one statement where Rangers offered him the job! to knock back. They wanted to speak to him, he bottled it and said he wasn't interested. Let's move on, I will be there tomorrow, . and still we follow on.

08 Dec 2017 23:47:29
It’s easy being a fan when everything is rosey and we are winning week in week out. Time for the fans to get real and get behind the club. The good times will return but we as a club need to be patient.

After 2 great results we should be looking forward to the game tomorrow. I don’t think anyone would have picked Murty’s Starting 11 against the sheep at home. He changed personnel and formation and then changed his tactics during the game. I really wish Murty all the best whatever he does in the game.

Come on bears back the team.

09 Dec 2017 08:54:52
Fod and 1975, you aren't worthy of supporting Rangers, we are the people, always have been, always will be, and if del mcinnes not coming to us makes you give up then good riddance.

09 Dec 2017 08:59:37
fodtheprod, is the most negative fan I've ever come across, floyder. in fact so much so I honestly don't believe he's a supporter at all, just a professional whinger who has very little love for Rangers. Over the past few months his posts have been so anti-Rangers you would have sworn he was a tim.

{Ed033's Note - Maybe fodtheprod thinks that for the foreseeable future, which is a lot of years, Rangers won't be able compete with Celtic as they will continue to bring in a lot more money than Rangers.

Now, a cunning plan would be for Rangers fans to club together and buy out Celtic FC!

09 Dec 2017 09:09:12
Floyder, the statement the club put out slagging mcinnes showing how raging they are he said no, this is just another indication that our identity has gone. The rangers I grew up supporting would never dream of being so childish and petty, especially publicly. Have a think mate, back to the old days.

09 Dec 2017 09:36:00
How has our identity been lost? What a load of nonsense. We were relegated to 3rd division. We worked our way back up with thousands at every game. We waited for Ash to leave and bought every strip in the land. We backed Coisty even though we knew it was not going to work cause he is one of us. We backed a banker and a man called pedro.

Our Manager wears a suit not a tracksuit. We are getting behind Murty our youth coach and hopefully today end this 3 game nonsense.

We are Still the Teddy Bears and we will have our DAY.
WE SHOULD BE PROUD OF HOW WE HAVE STOOD BY OUR TEAM.
Please get a grip and stay positive. DM has made his choice so be it.

09 Dec 2017 10:21:32
Well said JJK we are Rangers the biggest institution in Scotland and our identity will never be lost all those whingers have a reality check look where we were 5 years ago and look where we are now if you don’t think we have improved give yourself a shake and wake up onwards and upwards

09 Dec 2017 14:24:26
Fod is hurting as we all are. And he and many more of us were proved right about Pedro. Ours were not negative posts, but realistic about an appointment that was doomed to failure from the start. I have been supporting the club since the sixties and I can say hand on heart that this is the most difficult time for me to be a Rangers supporter.

However there are some positives- they are dominating domestically but this will come to an end soon. And they are mince in Europe. They think they are better than they are and that the gulf between us is huge. It's not. There is a decent squad at Ibrox and with the right man (thank God it wasn't the serial bottler) and two or three changes we wouldn't be far away.

And apparently there is investment on the horizon. Let's get behind the team and see where it takes us. I"d rather have Murty in interim charge than McInnes permanently. definitely dodged a bullet.

09 Dec 2017 14:31:35
Defo mate. These people must think celtic just stood still when we were down. Stay positive everything will be just fine but it takes time. We are getting there.

08 Dec 2017 18:24:22
OMG I've just had a really bad taught if DM was the best we could come up with fk plan b will be a joy 😠😠😠.

08 Dec 2017 16:12:41
I can't believe we need to put up with another 3-4 weeks of this! Board said we have a shortlist who was number 2? Where is DOF what exactly is he doing and has done in this latest debacle totally anonymous
Who authorised such a petty statement from the club?
Did we do the due dillegence on one candidate only?
How are we supposed to attract anyone of note when they know they are the "make do choice" God help Graeme Murty if results don't go his way
Pedros in a new job and we're still rummaging about to find somebody to manage the most successful club side in the world how bad must the behind scenes be
It's a total shambles and before we get the argument of the board are right to take their time at least have a back up plan so we don't get left looking like amatures again
I can't think of one club in recent times that took so long to appoint a manager it's a farce.

08 Dec 2017 19:52:03
Who would want a 7 month contract anyway.

08 Dec 2017 20:01:34
Dlc, the board don't have a clue about football. That was the thing with david murray, he knew football and surrounded himself with football men, not bus owners or mortgage brokers. Jeezo our board are football dyslexic. beating celtic was our false dawn.

08 Dec 2017 15:35:56
Just watched the press conference Murty has done. I really like the guy. He is getting the best out of the team we have. Love listening to the way he answered every question thrown at him. Give him the job full time. He is our biggest asset right now!

08 Dec 2017 19:17:28
Totally agree the man speaks well and the next 6 games are a big test for him. Forget about Mcinnes and move on, let’s all get fully behind the team

08 Dec 2017 19:25:49
he definently is up there. it was suggested at the agm and let's say the reaction to murty getting the job full time wasn't favoured by a majority of the share holders. king never clearly answered because of the amount of people shouting no .

08 Dec 2017 14:50:22
I remember reading that the board had a shortlist written up for potential managers. seems to be that was a list of 1. Said months ago that DM wouldn't take the job and remember saying that murty should be in charge until jan. let's see what happens in the coming weeks. Murtys actually doing not a bad job imo.

08 Dec 2017 15:36:35
I wanted McInnes but Murty has been growing on me last few weeks and I would rather we keep him than appoint anyone else from within Scottish football

08 Dec 2017 19:16:49
DM has made his choice. Board need to take time and get it right. Think some fans need to stop moaning about board and get behind team for next game. Murty will do just fine until we find the right person. DM turns us down and it's like we have saved a million quid. Oh yeah we have.

08 Dec 2017 13:42:51
has it crossed anybodies mind that it might not be football or financial reasons DM knocked us back?
Managing Rangers is not for everyone and not a nine till five job either.
were talking a total lifestyle change for him and his entire family where they live, how they live, where they go and maybe him and his family wernt ready for that. YET.

08 Dec 2017 15:11:06
git away wi your yet 😂 he won't get near the job ever now and that's how it should be

08 Dec 2017 16:21:06
His one and only chance of ever managing us is gone now. Your correct the negatives that come with managing one side of the old firm and staying in Glasgow may not be worth it for some folk.

08 Dec 2017 19:12:50
Well said. The man turned down a job. He is employed elsewhere. Why searching is needed for blame baffles me. His choice. Time to look at other options and stick with Murty for the near future. Really think some fans need to understand football is all business these days. He's got a job for life at Aberdeen winning little and finishing top 4. Clever business move. Zero pressure and prob good wages. We Want a WINNER. Pains me but a Rodgers.

08 Dec 2017 13:51:22
Thomas Tuchel anyone?
ex Dortmund manager now free agent and seems to change team tactics for each different opponent?

08 Dec 2017 14:31:41
Never heard of him!

08 Dec 2017 14:32:48
You canny get McInnnes yet you think you have a shot at Thomas Tuchel!?!? Dear oh dear lol

What about big Ancelotti while your at it?

08 Dec 2017 16:21:39
Embarrasing post, let's be more realistic

08 Dec 2017 11:42:36
Why the continued, unfair, unsubstantiated and blinkered sniping at our board? I made it clear when they took over I was no King advocate, but I am now. Last year, after Warburton, constant the board are rubbish we are skint ad infinitum. The board made a mistake with Cax agreed. They got rid of Ashley, they found 10m for players.

They have already stated money will be provided for the new manager WTF else do you want? Mcinnes in my humble opinion saw the media frenzy and decided he did not want that permanently, so for him did the right thing and said no to our offer. How can that possibly be the boards fault?

I hope Murty gets a few quid for 2 or 3 players in the January window and believe he will.

08 Dec 2017 12:05:17
Two managerial disasters, one month long failed attempt to tap one they could have had two years ago, £10m spent on £2m worth of players and more cash loans than Wonga. Aye, 10 oot o' 10 right enough

08 Dec 2017 12:35:30
bimnotablue, the very fact that we were able to spend 10mil on players was down to this board, pedro was a mistake ( not Kings ) but he was backed by the board financially as I like to think any manager would. Your valuation of our players is way off by the way.

08 Dec 2017 13:33:27
It's our boards fault as it took them 6 weeks to approach a manager who everyone and their dog knew was their first choice. They put all their eggs in one basket, waited 6 weeks for some unbeknown reason and then get rejected by a second rate manager and result in sticking with Murty till at least January. Which by the way i'm partially happy with.

08 Dec 2017 14:20:17
If Pedro was not Kings fault, who's to blame? Are you saying Kings not the man in charge? Who is then?
Not blaming King is like not blaming Pedro for Dalcio. Based on that premis perhaps you'd like Pedro back for another wee shottie. While we're at it give another roll of the £10m dice? No? Didn't think so
How much do you think we would get for Pedro players in January?

08 Dec 2017 14:44:06
Well said bluepete.

08 Dec 2017 19:15:38
I'll say it again bimnotablue, King did not appoint pedro, he left the footballing appointments to others while he took care of the financial side, the fact that we had so much to spend in the summer was a big part down to him. I take it you are no fan of our board, what would your answer be?

Yes we probably do need another role of the dice next summer ( unfortunately ) and could get 2 million for Morrelos alone, Dorrans, Jack etc all have value and are assets of the club. We appointed a director of football so why is he getting off scot free here, he is not doing his job, who talked to mcinnes? King? Allen? Who? Do you know. There are loads of questions to be asked but just slating the board helps noone.

08 Dec 2017 10:51:11
What are realistic plans for January transfer window!? Let's be honest celtic will win the league anf we've got plenty to finish 2nd! What money should be spent in January? We've still Wallace and Dorrans to come back in! I'd like us to get moult and cadden from motherwell but we can wait till summer for them! Save our cash as there is no value in January.

08 Dec 2017 10:06:09
i said all long mcinnes was a bottler and he bottled it big time, never a rangers manager in a million years

08 Dec 2017 11:16:45
Bang on

08 Dec 2017 12:43:27
Posters on here saying McInness not good enough. To an extent I agree, no better than Murty in my opinion. However the Board would have appointed him. It's clear Rangers hoped he would walk out of his position so compensation would be less. You don't conduct your recruitment via a PR release.

So this says more about the Board than McIness. The job was his, the Board weren't asking him in for an interview to assess him, so the Board would have appointed another manager who would not improve that team any more than Murty can.

08 Dec 2017 13:50:01
The job wasn't necessarily McInnes, the club wanted to speak to him yes but you would want to speak to a prospective manager before offering him anything. Think Gers job was too big for him and his arse went. Not a big loss. All these ex rangers players, not one a successful manager, havering nonsense. We're sitting 2nd despite getting beat twice in the last 4 games. No need to panic

08 Dec 2017 09:45:51
Wish everybody would stop saying mcleish for the job he's a woeful manager he won a treble with dick advocats team then finished 3rd he's done nothing else were would be a major step back no real tactical knowledge he's awful . some people have to get a grip on here.

08 Dec 2017 14:36:49
McLeish might not be the answer but 6 trophies in 4.5 years. Would you not take that now? He did sign some awful players, so did advocatt. McLeish has achieved more than boys like McInnes will ever achieve. I'd like to go for a big name manager, not sure we can afford to now.

08 Dec 2017 09:30:22
Great statement by the club onwards and upwards. murty will do a job til we find a quality manger who wants and can do well in the job

08 Dec 2017 09:47:11
Do you think so mate? I'm honestly embarrassed by that statement, better off saying nothing if your going to come out after DM has made his decision and in short say 'aye well he isn't good enough and we don't want him now anyway'.

It shows even more incompetence actually, because we were going to appoint a man who we now say isn't good enough? Shocking!

Jim Traynor shouldn't be employed by the club never mind allowed to post public statements.

People might be happy DM isn't the manager but you are kidding yourselves on if you don't think yesterday was an absolute beamer for Rangers FC.

08 Dec 2017 09:55:37
That statement is a joke. honest to God who thought it was ok to release it. we are a laughing stock bcos of it. what it tells me is they never even had plan b. they are shocked that mcinnes said no. now it's murty till the new year. all they had to say was we asked to speak to mcinnes but Aberdeen refused us permission so we now move on to try and get the best possible manager for rangers football club. but no what do we do. we release some crap about coming to rangers is a big step with concomitant risk.

lmao, the position of rangers manager requires an ability to win football matches. lol you don't say. who is running the day to say affairs at ibrox is it Robertson and dixson. if it is the way we have just went about is all this is disgraceful. we used to be a top drawer well run club. not anymore. as for mcinnes saying no. he will never get asked again. lots of fans didn't want him but I thought he would have done well but now we won't know. I just can't get over this stupid statement. fans aren't stupid so stop treating us like we are.

08 Dec 2017 10:26:05
So the rangers board wanted to “assess” McIness suitability to manage Rangers? What were they going to do ask some competency based questions. Eg Name a time when.
We all want the club to get back where we belong. This should start with the board and media team getting back to the CLASS off the field our club deserves.
Can I now please request a meeting with the board and media team so I can “assess” their qualities to manage Rangers. I will probably have to wait 6 weeks for a reply to that!

08 Dec 2017 08:54:18
Have been cut off the last couple of days so have just got back to civilization and the great news that DM is not coming to us.
The only bit of it that leaves a bad taste is the way in which the board have gone about their business. I feel they were being cheap in their pursuit of DM, and if that was the case then they didn't have far to look, their very own U20 coach out thought their 'first' choice, twice in a week. GM should now be given to the end of the season to see what happens.

08 Dec 2017 08:05:49
I've tried to make sense of McInnes when there's not much around and conclude that he must have been told by the Rangers Board that the beard had to go.

08 Dec 2017 07:29:02
All this talk about Rangers being snubbed is a load of garbage. McInnes was never offered the job. He declined to meet with Rangers. I personally think that he knew that he wasn't up to the pressure of the job and respect him for that.

He is in his comfort zone at Aberdeen where winning a cup every 10 years or so and coming 2nd or 3rd in the league is considered a success.

My immediate reaction to the statement that he was staying at Aberdeen was the same as our Boards. By declining to meet Rangers, he proved that he was not the right man for the job.

I don't think that Murty is the long term solution but he will do as good a job as McInnes would have in the short term.

With regards to signings in January, is that not the responsibility of our Director of Football?

We definitely dodged a bullet as DM has proven by his action that he does not have the temperament to take our team forward.

08 Dec 2017 02:22:13
I'm pretty surprised that DM never took the job or whatever stopped it from happening, but that statement the board put out is embarrassing! They approached Aberdeen to speak to him, he knocks it back and then the board basically say yeah he's not ready to manage a massive club like us. but Pedro Caixinha was?!

I really wanted DM in and if I had heard right Barry Ferguson in as no.3 because the would've made this squad realise what it takes and what it means to play for our club.

Can't think who else they will go for but I know it's coming into winter and the board better not be flying down to the shop and panic buying some mediocre ex-prem manager Just to look the part.

Their is a lot of work to be done aside from just getting a manager and I sincerely hope we are back on top before they get anywhere near 10 in a row.

08 Dec 2017 05:53:46
He shall never manage a club that size nor should he stay with the sheep then and see where is stock goes from there. F@#£ him

08 Dec 2017 06:12:21
It's an act of madness by McInnes. The chance of a lifetime comes along, destiny's calling and he turns it down. It was an opportunity to grasp not run from. Of course it carried risks but that's what life's about and with ambition and ability you reap the rewards. He won't manage an EPL club in his career and so what's he left with? Maybe a Championship team one day but it means his lot is Aberdeen. A nice part of the country but away games with half empty stadiums (outside Glasgow and Edinburgh) and very limited hopes of big successes. Just had to grasp the nettle and he couldn't.

08 Dec 2017 06:12:24
Im glad Murtys staying til Jan at least as we have a big month ahead of us. the board don't come out of this looking great but i can't honestly say that i'm dissapointed that DM isn't coming😏

08 Dec 2017 07:38:01
I totally agree he wasn’t the right man for the job anyway, the job is too big for him, it just shows you the man has no ambition and can’t work under pressure that is why he turned it down he knows he wouldn’t be able to handle the pressure. Did you see his outburst after the game at the weekend that is not the mark of a manager who can handle pressure never mind the pressures that come with managing the most successful club in football. Good riddance I think we have dodged a bullet there. The sheep will turn on him when we Finnish second ahead of them, onwards and upwards let’s get behind murts and the team now

08 Dec 2017 09:46:04
Derek mcinnes is a choker in big pressure games! He's got a cosy wee pen up in sheepland managing the sheep! Our board without a doubt have been embarrassing in their pursuit of a new manager! But there's one thing i've continually said on here guys, derek mcinnes HASN'T got it to be the manager of glasgow rangers! Simple as that and as far as i'm concerned, we've had a great escape here! The enormity of our very high pressure job, was way too big for delboy mcinnes!

08 Dec 2017 00:23:24
was at agm I asked what does mark allen do?
in a respectful manner still waiting on the answer lol
get him tae n get big eck in that role to support to GM
preferably before we go to the hole on 3o the dec.

08 Dec 2017 00:16:14
How about koeman? Probably pie in the sky but he might fancy coming up and winning things? Get his managerial career back on track? Use that million pound we offered for McInnes (madness) on koemans wages?

07 Dec 2017 23:54:01
Really can't get why there's so many fans wanting Murty!? The man has done a reasonable job thus far as caretaker manager to steady the ship so to speak, but is he really the man that's going to help close the gap on Celtic!? As football fans we're all a fickle lot, I'll I've heard is "aye but we took a point at Parkhead" forgetting that we lost to ICT and Dundee the last time he was in charge and now this time beating Aberdeen home and away people forget the previous two games to that where we lost to Hamilton at Ibrox for the first time in 90 some years then lost to a bottom of the league at the time Dundee team. Murtys record at Caretaker has been P12 W7 D1 L4, if that was anyone else in charge I think we'd all be going nuts with a record like that, now I'm not meaning to criticise the man as he can only play the cards he's dealt as the saying goes but if Rangers have real aspirations of being number 1 again we have to think bigger that Murty. Sorry but that's just my opinion, who do we now go for!? I've really no clue, but if Mr King wants us all to buy into it all again with season tickets at the end of the season he better put a rabbit out of the hat.

08 Dec 2017 00:37:53
mate problems behind the scenes was at AGM n asked what does Mark Allen do no one could answer
get that carry on tae f
if they wanna keep that role get big eck in to support GM preferably before we got to the hole 30th

08 Dec 2017 01:30:05
Ok so I think people really have to calm the hell down! Personally and over 50% of the readership thinks Mcinnes was the wrong choice.
Murty has done what none of the previous two managers has done- talk sense, build a relationship between players, got players in their right positions and playing for the jersey. He conducts himself with integrity and outsmarted the ‘main candidate’ twice, second time with 10 men and a make shift defence, so I give him lots of credit for steadying the ship.
Now whether this length of time that it has taken to get contact to Aberdeen was to unsettle the sheep it worked a treat without rangers ever mentioning DM by name. The media did all the work for us. Fact is, we are 2nd in the league and we have a real chance of being consistent under Murty than any other manager at the moment.
I hope the board take as much time and get the best manager in. We are nowhere near catching Celtic, just now or in January. Work needs to be done to get the right person in for the summer while using youth rather than spending in January. Give Murty the chance to continue to stabilise and reach 2nd place. For the love of god just get behind the team and maybe just maybe we’ll have the confidence to take something off them in January.

08 Dec 2017 02:04:34
OK, lads and lasses, This is my take on the scenario.
I certainly don’t know what went on behind the scenes,
but it’s either DM didn’t like what was being offered, (no
break up of current back room staff) . new manager, new
team etc. How can we realistically give Murty and JJ the
heave ho after stepping forward and putting their nuts on
the line. they deserve our respect and gratitude. So, if not
this, then here the rub. If I was a footballer who played for
and had visions of managing the team I was brought up
with then guess what! . I would bite your hand off and
not think twice, even in our current state. (temporary)
You’ ve either got or you don’t. Sorry Del but you’re
boat just sailed. Men of substance required not Shirkers!

I think we went for McInnes because out of everybody currently involved in Scottish football he was the most qualified. I don't think there's anybody else in Scottish football who could do the job. Murty should be offered a contract til the end of the season imo.
