27 Apr 2018 20:44:33
I'm told by a pal who has a link to Robbie Keane that SG is a cert and is bringing Mcallister and someone called Tom Culshaw. He's a big sellik fan, so could be a wynd up.



27 Apr 2018 21:43:25
A like how u have a bike as your picture because your pal is taking u fur a ride



27 Apr 2018 23:59:48
Smodge81 he's no bullshittin



{Ed0333's Note - I hope he comes to Rangers I really do.

28 Apr 2018 04:01:34
I don't understand the Gerrard bashing. If there's one thing his team will compete and be more physical



28 Apr 2018 05:39:44
The only Gerrard bashing is coming from the Tim’s Fraz!
Listened to a bit of SCB on way to work last night and they are seething of the thought of him coming to the Teddies?



28 Apr 2018 11:22:21
Well morning my fellow bears can a confirm that bookies have priced us up to have no chance tomorrow sitting at 7/ 1 fingers are crossed but this is the time player need to stand up and be counted and leather these c@&£.



28 Apr 2018 16:48:41
I was sceptical about Gerard for us but I am convinced now that he could do a good job. He is all about hard work and fitness, we need this badly. Players can't run for 90 minutes that Scottish football needs. The fact that that nugget Sutton et al are saying its a bad move, further convinces me its a good move. I only wish that someone like Souness would help out, or Walter or even Ally, just to give him more knowledge of Scottish football. Possibly exciting times ahead teddy bears.



27 Apr 2018 20:43:17
As i said earlier guys supposedly its a done deal its now appearing on twitter if you ignore the other stuff, supposedly guy called culshaw and gmac coming in aswell, the culshaw info came from a liverpool fan who is close to rossiter supposedly.
I heard about gerrard but the culshaw who os a coach i'm not sure which coach and gmac done is new to me.



27 Apr 2018 21:10:22
Heard the exact same StmonkeyRFC! Hearing the announcement will be made on monday or tuesday that our new management team will be steven gerrard (manager/ head coach),
gary mcallister (assistant manager/
assistant head coach) and tommy culshaw (first team coach)!



27 Apr 2018 21:19:45
I believe he is a fitness coach not 100% sure though I'm sure that's what I read earlier on another site



27 Apr 2018 21:33:30
Hearing the same chaps! Just hope mr king and his supposed backers will give the lad every chance of mounting a challenge next season!



27 Apr 2018 21:38:31
I remember when souness arrived in glasgow the buzz was amazing . hope this does happen as I think the hype will put the willies up everyone . great times I hope fantastic to see some o the names being mentioned makes me feel like how I should feel . Proud to be a rangers supporter . cmon!



27 Apr 2018 22:00:58
Will he be on a rolling contract supercoop?



27 Apr 2018 22:35:29
You tell me blueberry!



27 Apr 2018 22:41:28
Culshaw is not the fitness coach. He is his assistant coach for the u18 team



28 Apr 2018 05:43:05
Supercooper, even if the Gerrard thing falls through at least King is trying his best! He would be a fantastic Manager for us as he was a player with great attitude and let’s hope it happens mate and if not we move on🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧



28 Apr 2018 08:45:53
I'd be surprised but pleased if Gerrard became manager / head coach. Can't help thinking it's all P. R., trying to sell season tickets. Maybe hide the fact dodgy Dave hasn't offered to buy the shares he was ordered to by the court? Hope iam wrong, I really do



28 Apr 2018 10:15:43
Blueberry man you think its P. R. ? So you think King can control the media, twitter, Klopp and everyone else just to fool us Just think before you type. Gerrard may or may not come but conspiracy no way.



28 Apr 2018 10:48:55
Asking someone to be manager, doesn't mean he'll sign. McInnes? He was definitely going to be manager. Remember the media, online? We've got 4 important games coming up, c*ltic on Sunday. No kit deal news, king failing to comply with court order. What's everyone talking about? Gerrard. I'd be happy, even delighted if Gerrard became manager / head coach.



28 Apr 2018 10:49:53
Oh and I never mentioned conspiracy



28 Apr 2018 10:59:19
Bluberry king etc don’t need stunts to sell season tickets. Our great fans buy between 40-43k every year.
I for one would love SG as our manager



28 Apr 2018 11:41:19
Don’t want Gerrard we need gio or de Boer in there



28 Apr 2018 11:41:47
King maybe doesn't need stunts for us to buy season tickets. He should be held accountable for the pretty p*ss poor we've had this season on and off the park. Pedro, McInnes, murty, more soft loans, court cases, overdrafts that turn out to be loans. Some say we can't blame dodgy Dave for things on the park. He was the one who came out with the weird statement about murty just before old firm game.



27 Apr 2018 19:31:27
fellow bears
just for laughs look at the offical Rangers headlines Newsrap 35 with AH, JW and on the right SG was this done for a reason?
Dounebear.



27 Apr 2018 21:17:54
Whos AH and JW and why not just say their names?



27 Apr 2018 21:45:52
Well think about it son Andy Halliday josh windass



28 Apr 2018 09:58:18
There that wasn't too hard was it smog?



27 Apr 2018 19:14:39
Rumours in old Hamilton town this evening: Gerrard has been discussing things with Allen and was quite excited at the prospect of 'turning Rangers round'. Then he met King a couple of times and was shocked at the poor finances on offer to do the job, although, according to one director, he did not reject the notion. Now he has to weigh it up - is it a stepping stone to the Anfield hot seat or could it be the entrance to the managerial abyss? Put simply he's gone from hot to lukewarm in a week. Our problem is, if he now rejects us, every other candidate will know they weren't first choice which will see the better ones vanish off the radar.



27 Apr 2018 19:45:53
Don’t want him anyways



27 Apr 2018 19:02:52
According to Bill Young on Rocksport radio which is broadcast via fb or Twitter. Gerrard deal is DONE! 😁😁.
He is usually very reliable!
Onwards and upwards Bears! FIRB.



27 Apr 2018 19:20:44
Steven Gerrard a done deal
3 yr deal at 1m per year with a huge 2.5m bonus to win the league.



27 Apr 2018 21:27:54
that's him in with a £7.5 million bonus guaranteed then!



27 Apr 2018 18:21:09
Great news sky are saying Steven Gerrard is likely not to take the rangers job.

They need to get Neil Warnock as manager.



27 Apr 2018 18:35:03
Why is this great news



27 Apr 2018 18:35:09
I would be up for gerrard and murty as numba 2 but frank de bour or warnock



27 Apr 2018 18:48:23
With a name like Craig Whyte I smell something



27 Apr 2018 18:50:47
this was allan smith saying this if i am correct he is a pundit for sky this is not actually from sky direct and if he does reject us this leaveas having to search again even tho we have signed players this is not good news set us back again



27 Apr 2018 18:50:56
Thank god he’s not taking it major mistake and a wouldn’t renew my season ticket it has to be frank de Boer or gio



27 Apr 2018 18:53:27
If you actually read it properly, its Sky Sports pundit Alan Smith saying that SG is unlikely to take the job. So that's not exactly solid gold news is it?

People need to stop being so negative with every name mentioned and actually get behind who ever gets the job.



27 Apr 2018 19:01:29
Did you actually listen to sky or read the article in the star! Alan Smith sky pundits on his personal view based on nothing is he would be better staying at Liverpool to learn. No mention of discussion or friend of said. This is opinion only from smith. Fake headline.



27 Apr 2018 20:55:20
Southsideger where's your seat? I need one for my daughter.



27 Apr 2018 21:23:20
Bluepete its at parkhead I feel



28 Apr 2018 00:43:03
When the heat is on I doubt Gerrard could handle it IF this rumour has truth in it then it's purely about selling season tickets

I also read an artical about a man named lynch he says he met Gerrard and told that Gerrard has a photo framed Celtic top look it up if you want that worries me



28 Apr 2018 12:23:02
This is really poor. As other says, this is Alan Smith personally saying he thinks it would be a mistake for Gerrard. This is literally the very epitome of fake news.



27 Apr 2018 16:41:32
Arfield agrees 4 year pre contract, great signing.



27 Apr 2018 16:58:20
saw it on sky sports just there, kinda player is he? attacking or like a central mid or what?



27 Apr 2018 17:20:09
He’s a CAM Dec.



28 Apr 2018 00:39:35
He is an attacking midfielder but Has been playing on the right of midfield and occasionally On the left this season on the games i watched not central midfield but He can play there, can play across all of midfield mostly attacking box to box but Has and can play CDM also.



27 Apr 2018 12:05:49
I saw Gary McAllister yesterday in Hamilton. Know he has a house in the town could be nothing but you never know



27 Apr 2018 14:08:28
Fdid you not tell him to stay away from Ibrox?



27 Apr 2018 17:07:18
SDM why would he tell him to stay away from Ibrox?



27 Apr 2018 17:38:34
GM was in Hamilton yday visiting DP



28 Apr 2018 10:00:53
Should read, GM was in H yday v DP.



27 Apr 2018 12:02:16
Liverpool won't stand in gerrards way if he wants job.



27 Apr 2018 14:15:20
Do we think he will actually come? No way he will ever take the job. And to be honest I don't want him. He is an under 18 manager with no experience. We have a under 20 manager at minute and he is not cutting it. I think this is to get us to part with our cash for season books. little bit of spin to take away from our poor showing in celtic game.



27 Apr 2018 16:06:41
GERGOVAN who do you want? How do you expect people to get experience. I recently got made a supervisor at my work, I haven’t been a supervisor before. Does that mean I will not succeed? Such a draconian outlook to have.



27 Apr 2018 16:08:35
I would have to say the level of coaches Murty and Gerrard have worked with throughout their careers are on a different level. Whether Gerrard would want to come north is another matter.



27 Apr 2018 17:03:58
Bit like apples and oranges lm91 I'm pretty sure at your work u don't have the pressure of being in charge of a massive institution with the hopes and expectations of millions of fans across the world squarely on your shoulders



27 Apr 2018 17:46:58
lm91- did you get that job with swissport at the airport? are you the new spy?



27 Apr 2018 17:57:24
It’s not the point, guys are writing him off before he’s even appointed. Never in my life have I seen our support so negative!



27 Apr 2018 20:36:54
Pretty sure that when Gerrard was in his previous job as captain of LIVERPOOL he would have gained a modicum of experience dealing with the the expectations of millions.



27 Apr 2018 11:53:01
I agree that we need a new manager however i feel that the timing of all this talk about replacing murty is shocking it clearly shows that the board are only interested in getting our season ticket renewal money. Imo all this talk of new players manager etc should have not been leaked until we have secured second spot.

What must murty and players be thinking going into the last 4 games. They must be feeling totally let down and as a result there is now a higher risk that we could end up finish 4th and relying in the unclean winning the cup to secure our European slot giving that mobs support more opportunities to give it 2 our fans. Not a happy bear guys bring on the disagrees guys.



27 Apr 2018 12:08:59
How will the players be feeling totally let down. If the board were not trying to get a new manager for next season then they wouldn't be doing there job. If i was there as a player and had been told there was a new manager for next season. I would be going be doing my best to impress.



27 Apr 2018 12:33:56
I agree Honda, hopefully make the players step up knowing they have to impress! Also Murty will at least know what is happening and ease the pressure on him to say win the last four games, and get put in to the managers plans for next year.



27 Apr 2018 12:43:39
The players will be feeling let down? Not anywhere near as much as the fans at some of their performances this season mate



27 Apr 2018 12:53:18
If anything, it should be giving the players that are currently there a boot up the a***. Playing to impress and for their futures now.



27 Apr 2018 13:03:53
Murty new his deal was to the end of the season and the players might get there finger out knowing someone is watching them possibly!



27 Apr 2018 13:06:20
If people weren’t hearing about a new manager and new players would all be moaning because didn’t no what was going on and why should they buy season tickets when kept in dark, board can’t win can they, but I would rather hear what’s happening



27 Apr 2018 13:06:48
They have no right to be feeling let down after the dross they’ve shown on the pitch. They need to play to keep there place in the squad is the way i see it.



27 Apr 2018 13:30:05
Think back to the last game, Murtys tactics didn't work, we were thrashed, we had players arguing and fighting etc. no team spirit, no leadership on the field,
Well in my opinion maybe it would do them good to know that they are being watched by a new manager and could be playing for their future, could make them put a bit more effort in!



27 Apr 2018 14:04:43
United Kingdom. The new manager talk about SG, might prove to be a master stroke. Letting that out before the game against the mhankie mhob, must surely put a rocket up the players. Like the guys have said, they'll be playing for their futures. Might just spoil the pharty after all



27 Apr 2018 14:18:14
Tbh the club haven't commented directly anyway. It goes on all the time.



27 Apr 2018 14:40:55
Can only be a good thing. These players need to know they must leave nothing on the park (unless it is a boot print on thumb or peanut heid) and that they are playing for the right to be in the squad next season. I can accept lack of ability but I'll never accept lack of effort



27 Apr 2018 14:53:02
It is right and proper that we consider our manager for next season as Murty is only contracted to Summer. Murty may be in the mix as well! Would you rather the board sat on their hands and rushed things later on?



27 Apr 2018 18:16:06
I get all of your opinions re it may give players a kick up the butt to up their game however if you look through the history book of similar situations the vast majority of times the teams involved takes a dip in form. Ps i truly hope i'm wrong.

On stevie g, i feel this move is going to be a massive gamble as he is inexperienced and has some mess to sort out poss having to ship out at least 10 players and replace them with a better quality.
One off my biggest concerns is that we start taking lesser offers for players in order to get them out the door.

We will need to give whoever gets the job time as such a massive turn around in playing staff will result in inconsistency till the manager gets his settled team and beds in the new players.



27 Apr 2018 11:35:56
Hi troops was thinking maybe SG could possibly be a very shrewd move for once by the board . He was straight from the top drawer as a player and the respect he would command from the team could put an end to the kind of things that have been going on lately . Also feel he may be able to attract a higher quality of player to the club. Look what souness did back in the day . What about zidane he started with Madrid b.



27 Apr 2018 12:13:43
I still think it is a bit of a gamble if Gerrard accepts. I do hope I’m wrong and he is a success. If he does accept, then he will have to get the season of to great start. Think he would need to at least win first 5 league games to get a positive start. I am also unsure about getting the higher quality players that we want. Yes Gerrard May attract these players but, will the board pay the money. Although I suppose if he is the new manager the this may attract some other investors into the club.



27 Apr 2018 12:48:37
As others have said, every new manager is a gamble!

As for winning the first 5 games. even Walter would be expected to do that.

I assume that any new manager will want assurances from the board about available cash before the agree to join. pretty basic stuff!



27 Apr 2018 13:31:46
It has pro's and cons but what it does do is opens up a whole new avenue of a potential partnership with Liverpool and getting some loans on fringe or rising stars.



27 Apr 2018 11:49:00
The rumour I've seen this morning on social media is Gary McAllister as Gerard's number 2, I think that would be a great team



27 Apr 2018 08:59:30
gers statement apparently planned for today

wonder what the topic is?



27 Apr 2018 10:26:57
first time posting, got told a rumour today that hull released mcgregor and rangers will have him signed and starting on sunday. i don't know whether to beleive it because who would release mcgregor and i didn't think you could sign a free agent this late in the season.



27 Apr 2018 11:04:10
Always a friday press conference before weekend game its nothing to get excited about



27 Apr 2018 11:14:43
Statement is a different thing to a press conference.



27 Apr 2018 11:45:22
Listened to talk sport all morning. Bookie was on saying they have closed the book. Looks like it's a done deal.

I'm in two minds with this one. No experience but can attract some big names. Possible Sturridge on loan? Would love that!



27 Apr 2018 13:24:19
Sturridge is NEVER fit. And way out our price range even for a loan if we are picking up half his wages I would think, who knows thou



27 Apr 2018 07:58:58
Update on last night's post, McAllister definitely Stevie g's right hand man plus for me the big news is he's been told plenty of money to spend

Don't know where or who the money is from, let's hope this is all true, ps I'm excited



27 Apr 2018 08:54:22
Hope so mate, could of done with someone with more managerial experience in my opinion, but even that doesn't guarantee success. But i am definitely excited about signing stevie g tho, If it happens



27 Apr 2018 09:02:13
How's the heid loyal?



27 Apr 2018 09:53:01
Banging lol, however it might not matter as told it's announced today, then just read tilladie saying announcement, could this be it lads . answer on postcards please, oh I give my age away in this time of social media



27 Apr 2018 07:02:47
Clark was approached about the job but turned it down, at which point rangers turned their attentions to Stevie g.



27 Apr 2018 07:31:35
The media do talk utter pish at times



27 Apr 2018 07:56:40
I heard this about 2/ 3 weeks ago, no smoke without fire.



27 Apr 2018 08:19:25
From what I know, he was approached to see if he would be willing to come in for talks about the job, he wasn't number 1 target.



27 Apr 2018 09:06:31
I posted on here weeks ago that Clarke would not join us I know his family they are all Celtic minded and no way would he take the job and put his family through that if he did take it and stop Ten in a row they’d be hounded out of Saltcoats, he may have been approached to see if he would be a name on the list but that’s not being offered the job



27 Apr 2018 11:15:31
Pretty sure I read on here that 'Clarke would crawl on his hands and knees to the Rangers job'.
