Not a rumour as such but i'm just after talking to one of our youth coaches at THTC,
who i won't name as it wouldn't be fair to.
He told me that our director of football mark allen rates very highly and thinks the world of our youth coach kevin thomson. He has said that he's very impressed with how KT build his own youth academy, after retiring from professional football, at a relatively young age. Allen thinks thomson has the makings of becoming a terrific head coach/
manager, a few years down the line. Got me thinking that as allen has a massive say, in who is the rangers manager/ head coach,
does he see a pathway for thomson to progress to one day have the rangers manager's/ head coach's job, once gerrard has left? Could mark allen be grooming kevin thomson, for the top job at rangers one day?
Whats our thoughts on this fellow bears? I have heard myself through other people that thomson is a very highly rated coach indeed.

Never been impressed with Thomson on RTV. For someone praised as a coach, a worrying lack of knowledge and awareness of this club comes through. And I know it's nitpicking, but he's one of the 'Morales' crew.

Rfcrb I disagree I think Kevin comes across well and hope he progresses as high as his abilities take him, pronunciation is not a problem as people whom are paid lots more than Kevin all over the world can get that wrong.



05 Aug 2019 16:34:51
I just hope the next time he talks about “Morales” it’s talking about our former player.

Mark Allen will understand that coaching kids and managing Rangers are two entirely different propositions (eg Murty) . It's like saying a guy who once set up a wee corner shop has the potential to be managing director of Tesco. Bordering on fantasy football here.

What was that statement all about rfcrb1872?My god!

Alright daisy sweetheart, would you say thathat about Gerrard? I'm not saying he would be a goodaunting head coach but everyone has to start somewhere.



06 Aug 2019 14:33:47
Daisy yore did our current manager not come from managing the youth team? Maybe think before you type in future.

Supercoop, agree Kevin Thomson shows promise as a coach and certainly thought he was a very good player for us. He is also media savvy and comes across well when interviewing. Personally I don’t think he will ever be manager of our club but if he does a good job over the next 3-4 years he could secure a bigger role when SG returns to Liverpool.



06 Aug 2019 17:05:08
It would be a big shock if when SG goes we replaced him with Kevin Thomson. Would/ could the supporters get excited by that appointment.



06 Aug 2019 18:00:21
I think she Gerrard does go Mcallister will take over and maybe KT will be his assistant.



06 Aug 2019 18:35:48
I think Mcallister would go with gerrard in time.



06 Aug 2019 19:42:21
Personally don’t think we should be a club that promotes from within, we might end up with another manager like McCoist.

Rangers need to be appointing proven top end managers, and before anyone mentions it. I don’t think we should have hired a rookie in SG. Thought he made a of mistakes and enemies with his nieve pressers.

If Kevin Thomson has ambitions to be the manager, I would like him to go to a Kilmarnock or similar as head coach to prove himself first.

Kevin Thompson is a very good youth coach he coached my young nephew at Bo'ness under 19 who gas just stepped up a level and sighned for Bo'ness United seen him up close knows what he's doing!

Middleton to Hibs today, 12 months
Movement on Grezda, Holt this week, mb Murphy and hastie out on loan. St mirren interested in both.



05 Aug 2019 10:49:13
Did steven gerrard himself not say that jake hastie won't be going anywhere on loan? I'm positive he did John25.



05 Aug 2019 11:54:08
Who pays the wages of these guys or is it 50/ 50 split type of thing? Can we stipulate they must play x amount of games (e. g. Worrall) and is it a given that they don't play against us?



05 Aug 2019 12:12:45
SGL only passing on what I’m told, u will know a lot of my stuff has substance. I believe feeling in hastiewould benefit six months of game time.



05 Aug 2019 13:00:54
Short of wingers at RFC, Kent must be coming back, i've said this many times on here only to be shot down in flames! KENT WILL RETURN.



05 Aug 2019 13:01:41
Bar 72 all stuff negotiated, it is a given he won’t play against us.



05 Aug 2019 13:37:35
Muppet if we get to group stage I believe Kent will return last day of window.



05 Aug 2019 22:43:08
I think Kent is still on.



06 Aug 2019 14:14:48
Yeah Hastie isn’t going anywhere, he’ll get 20 games this season.



06 Aug 2019 14:41:14
KENT IS NOT COMING BACK. REPEAT. KENT IS NOT COMING BACK.
