Rumour is that Rohl wanting away- amicable between parties and Muscat at the game today, anyone else hearing this?
04 May 2026 20:13:04
Seen that too, don't know if it's just 2+2=5 though.
04 May 2026 20:14:55
Amato, I'm being told no way Muscat at today's game.
04 May 2026 20:18:10
Hope so, to be frank, Rohl is more than out his depth for me.
04 May 2026 20:19:53
Never seen Muscat and pretty sure the TV cameras would have noticed this. So I'm going to put at least that part of the rumour to bed.
04 May 2026 20:20:46
Also, apologies if he was at the game but never saw it if the camera showed that.
04 May 2026 20:30:38
Rumour has been debunked numerous times.
Danny is not under threat of termination and has no desire to leave.
04 May 2026 20:31:27
John, have you seen the picture doing the rounds on social media? Looked very much like him. I did/do find it strange considering they (Shanghai) have a game on Wednesday.
04 May 2026 20:32:25
People hated Michael Beale because he was in the stand when Gvb was still the Rangers manager.
If Muscat was at the game today, then I hope Rangers fans will be consistent and vilify Muscat for attending a game while we still have a manager in the dugout.
No double standards.
04 May 2026 20:36:42
Thanks, John. Don't know where we go. Rohl hasn't won at Easter Road, Fir Park, Tynecastle, knocked out two cups, and 1 European win in 6 attempts.
04 May 2026 20:37:31
The Muscat ship has sailed. If Danny goes, which wouldn't surprise me, not sure who I want. Not Muscat.
04 May 2026 20:40:40
Was it not just a fan that looks like him lol?
Also, if Danny does want to go at the end of the season, I won't be disappointed.
04 May 2026 20:41:41
It was someone that looked extremely like Muscat, but I don't think it was him.
04 May 2026 20:44:34
Orange, he managed his club Saturday and has a game Wednesday night. I'm not sure we would want someone who apparently rejected us in November.
04 May 2026 20:47:06
Of course it wasn't Muscat, guys. He's got a game on Wednesday.
04 May 2026 20:48:20
There's a picture going about when we score of Muscat celebrating in the crowd.
04 May 2026 20:58:55
Utterly out of his depth, I'm afraid.
04 May 2026 21:00:57
Please not all the Muscat stuff again. No thanks. Can stick to his corrupt league where no one else is interested in him.
04 May 2026 21:02:52
Players on the pitch and last summer's recruitment takes the blame, not Danny. He's not perfect, but neither was Clement and if Clement was still here along with Shankland in a Rangers jersey we'd be winning that league.
That was a toothless second half performance, they swanned around as if they had it won. Very poor!
04 May 2026 21:03:05
John, are the rumours true in your opinion that he wants to leave?
Our chairman and the Leeds chairman were both at the game tonight.
04 May 2026 21:11:33
I'm sorry, but I have my doubt as to whether someone currently in Norway knows what Cavenagh, Marathe & co's thoughts are on the manager at the moment.
04 May 2026 21:14:53
Wrfc, no, I have not, would be surprised, but it's been a funny old season.
Rohl, cheese, totally agree, but why would Rangers bring in a potential new manager when league was still up for grabs, unless Rohl has agreed to leave.
04 May 2026 21:17:45
It was just a fan that looked like him. Have a day off. 🤣
04 May 2026 21:18:42
We were never going to do it with the lack of quality and will to win. I bet you he didn't roast any of the players and hasn't ever done so. I also bet most of the players will be on that bus back completely ambivalent about losing.
Would you take Benetiz for 2 seasons? He would have torn them to shreds.
04 May 2026 21:26:37
Boy from Airdrie, I believe.
04 May 2026 21:59:30
It wasn't Muscat but a fellow Rangers supporters boss from work. He does have a striking resemblance.
04 May 2026 23:09:17
Storm, no smoke without fire.
04 May 2026 23:19:08
I currently want Danny at Rangers next season. He needs to win 2 out of the next 3 for me, though if he loses 2 out of the 3 we need to have a think about a new manager.
04 May 2026 23:21:12
If Cavenagh has anything about him, Rohl will already have been served his notice until the end of the season.
If not, it's another season next year of the same nonsense.
This takeover has been nothing short of a disaster.
We are in line for less points than last season, when last season we majorly cut costs and this season spent 45 odd million.
If Rohl isn't bagged, the 49ers should be.
This club died when Walter Smith left and has never recovered.
04 May 2026 23:39:42
Sorry, but how many more games does this manager need to prove he's absolutely rank rotten. Never the answer for this club. Anyone saying otherwise is simply denying reality.
04 May 2026 23:39:55
Who I'd like to be the next Rangers manager was in that stadium, and it wasn't the boy that looked like Muscat.
04 May 2026 23:53:51
Muscat has stated before he won't leave a job mid season same as Bodo Glimtamager.
Men of morals.
05 May 2026 00:00:47
My opinion on Rohl hasn't wavered from the start. I was unsure on him and thought it might be a bad idea.
Nothing he has done has changed my mind. He still has a majority of the fans behind him, and I truly hope he proves the doubters wrong, myself included, but I just don't see it.
I realise changing managers constantly is never a good thing, and I'm not saying sack him tomorrow, but I can't help but think this will end badly.
Again, really hope I'm eating my words next season, but I'm tired of saying next season this, that and the other.
05 May 2026 01:04:10
Think Rohl is a good manager who has a really poor squad. Simple as that, really.
Think maybe he trusts about a handful of those players, and the rest he would happily let go tomorrow.
We shall see, maybe I'll eat my words next season, but personally think the club needs a manager who will be here for at least 3/4 years.
Club needs serious improvements outside of just the squad and manager.
05 May 2026 06:21:21
I don't believe that Rohl was Cavenagh's first choice for the job. Don't believe it at all. Gerrard and Muscat wouldn't have been offered and pretty much a done deal if Cavenagh preferred Rohl.
What position would we be in now if Thelwell never messed it up and we had either Gerrard or Muscat in the dugout?
05 May 2026 06:24:31
Just my own personal opinion, but I definitely think Andrew Cavanagh will keep Danny Rohl as our head coach for next season and allow him the time to build his own team. 🤔 I just can't see Rohl not being our head coach when next season starts. 🤔
05 May 2026 07:40:37
That wasn't Muscat, and I very much doubt Danny has said he's wanting away. Lose last 2 games now, supposobly he wants away, aye ok. 🤦♂️
05 May 2026 07:52:54
People still blaming Thelwell and Martin, we were top of the league a couple of weeks ago and many of us have stayed, we have the best squad in the league. So why haven't we kept pace?
A manager has to be a motivator, and they have to find a way to win games and make the changes when things aren't going so well.
None of this seems to be happening under DR. Add to that, the brand of football being pure vomit.
Him having a wife and young family in Germany, none of that points to a long term manager.
05 May 2026 08:12:30
Watp, how has the rakovwr been a disaster? Would u have preferred admin 2?
05 May 2026 08:49:44
WATP 😳 - ridiculous comment pal. Where do you think this ends if 49ers leave? Who's bankrolling the next 'Rangers Revolution'?
It's not a time for rash decisions - I'm glad we are led by proper business men (who, yes, have grown to love the club) and not 'fans' that knee jerk.
Danny has made mistakes - big ones, and he was outsmarted by a manager that knows our league inside out, but McInnes built a team, a squad capable of challenging. Dr inherited a squad of misfits with soft centres.
Yes we've spent money - lots of it, but we have to at least allow Danny 1 pre-season building his own team, and playing his preferred system, before we chuck the baby out with the bath water again.
We wrote PC off and just look what he managed to do at Norwich over the past 5 months.
Who is good enough to be the Rangers manager? I recon if Pep was available some would look at how the EPL has unfolded this season and say 'not good enough for us'.
Madness.
05 May 2026 10:02:33
How has it been a disaster?
Oh, let's see.
Fans want them to be on to their 5th manager including caretakers, there is still no head of academy, they have decimated the women's team, we have spunked 45m to be worse than last season, there is still no head of recruitment (despite what Aphe says, it's still not been confirmed), they backed Stewart to a criminal extent, they allowed Kevin Thelwell total control.
And that's all in less than 1 year.
Cataclysmic.
And no, John, admin 2 wouldn't have happened as the Americans weren't the only interested party.
05 May 2026 10:13:59
Watp, we were days from admin till Bennett and Park funded us.
Who are these other groups who wanted in but never bid?
05 May 2026 10:29:59
Bearsbear, great point. Who is good enough (and a realistic option) to be Rangers manager, if Danny leaves?
I want Dr in place next season. Judge him on results after a full pre-season and improved squad.
Otherwise, who takes the job.
05 May 2026 10:59:45
Some of you seriously have to give it a rest. Danny Rohl has worked a minor miracle getting us close to the top of the league. Not a single person thought we would be anywhere near here when that vegan imposter stole the coach's job. Has Rohl made mistakes? Undoubtedly. Did Walter Smith make mistakes? Absolutely. Even Sir Alex made errors. Bottom line, he didn't react to Hearts being sent out to steamroller us in the second half. 'Captan' Tav once again standing pointing at others when the equaliser went in, still failing to take responsibility for organising a defence.
Now, moving on to other points, Kevin Muscat is not the answer to any question regarding Rangers. Never has been and never will be. Rohl deserves at least another season to build a team capable of winning this league. He has taken the Vegan's team and got them close but ultimately fell just short. As I said above, nothing short of a minor miracle. If he does decide to go, we absolutely must look at someone who knows this league, who knows what a game against Motherwell or Hearts means and someone who knows what Rangers actually means to everyone.
At the moment, it is very difficult to say who that would be, but what is clear is that we need someone sitting on that bench, whether the head coach or assistant, who knows Rangers through and through.
The new club owners will come into their own over the summer, I feel that we will reinvigorate the club with new players. We will bring in a strong captain who will run the team, hopefully from midfield, and drive us on. This is my firm belief, the 49rs and Mr Cavanagh are in this for the long term and will bring success to our club.
Also, some of you need to stop this ridiculous attack on Aphelion - just because he doesn't live on Copland Road doesn't mean he doesn't know what's going on. Once again, there are people here who have no clue about what's going on and just show up to attack people or to criticise.
05 May 2026 12:01:44
Danny Rohl has not worked a miracle. He's done a better job than Russell Martin, nothing less or nothing more. 3rd place after spending what we did in the summer and January is not good enough.
Maybe if we'd started to see some resemblance of a style of play and/or tactics in play on the pitch then some might have a bit of optimism keeping Rohl for next season.
05 May 2026 12:03:02
I think we are forgetting that this is not Danny Rohl's team, this is the team he got halfway through the first half of the season and the fact that he has managed to put us in contention is amazing, seeing we were about 13 or so points off the top, so I for one would like to see Danny stay, get a pre-season under his belt and bring in players that he wants and will pay his system.
I say this every year and then proved wrong, but I really do believe that next season will all be about The Rangers. Let's not go backwards. Muscat had his chance and turned it down as did Gerrard, so let's all get behind the team and Danny for next season, for once we have a pretty good chairman looking after Rangers in AC.
05 May 2026 12:10:33
Danny Rohl is here next season, unless he decides the time is right to work closer to home. Has he made mistakes? Yes, but hopefully, being young, he will learn from them for next season.
The 49ers and Andrew Cavenagh have been great for our club, and we are now being run properly and looking forward to a future.
05 May 2026 12:20:48
If we are going to criticise Rohl then let's get the facts right. He did win a game at Easter Road, but my own personal opinion is that it should be the players who take the blame for these results. They have been shown to be gutless when it comes to big games and I'm pretty sure that in the games that they only play for half them it's because they either have ignored what they have been told to do or can't raise themselves to do it, and that includes some of the ones who are supposedly worth big money.
That said, I'm not sure about Rohl, we need a name manager to lead our club out of this dark era, what about paying the wages and going for Glasner.
05 May 2026 12:40:32
Would love Glasner if Danny Rohl was to leave, but we have no chance of attracting that calibre of manager/coach even with all the money in the world. They simply don't want to come to Scottish football. Maybe that's why we are trying young up and coming managers/coaches.
05 May 2026 12:41:04
👏👏 gd post DTB. 👍
05 May 2026 12:49:46
Very good post, Do the Bouncy.
Especially your statement re Alphe. Well done.
05 May 2026 13:24:34
These players wouldn't be able to play Muscat's system. They would be required to run for 90 mins, not jog.
05 May 2026 13:38:05
I still believe Rohl should get the summer window & be judged on where we are at before Christmas. As for another manager, yes, some top managers might not want to come to Scotland, but some might, esp if there's a chance at Europe. We are still a massive club.
That lot got Rodgers twice, he was very well known & thought of. We got Gerard, who was a big name, granted very inexperienced, manager wise there would surely be a top boss somewhere who would want or relish the test & challenge of running us.
05 May 2026 13:39:15
There has been no miracle worked by Rohl at all. Anyone, genuinely anyone, could have got us to finish 3rd in the league even after Martins start. I've seen a lot of people say we can't keep sacking the manager, yes we can, until we get one that sticks and wins - sack away. To be the Rangers manager you need to have won something as a manager or achieved huge amounts of success in the game as a player - Rohl has neither going for him. He is amateur-like in his interviews and naive as a coach - it won't work out.
I've read every post about his game from a German coaching staff that Flick trusted him. He's not Flick, and their set-ups have lots of coaches. If you hire a Championship manager, you get Championship results. I'm also not buying wait till he gets a window under his belt either. He can't get enough out of the current players, and will not get enough out of the new cohort. A clear out has to happen, manager and down. It's time to move on.
05 May 2026 13:41:46
Dave King literally said on live radio, there were other American parties and Middle Eastern parties interested.
I haven't attacked Aphe once. I stand by and watch people post what they like on here.
I'm just pointing out that every single media outlet going, including fan media, says Stig is yet to accept a permanent role.
05 May 2026 13:48:28
I actually can't believe people are wanting another sacking, when does it stop? When do we give a manager more than a season or a couple of months? Just look at teams that constantly sack managers & you'll see why we are where we are.
Rohl has done brilliantly to turn us around from Martin & we should never have been near the title in the place. Rohl has lost 3 league games (Hearts & Motherwell).
People said earlier under Martin this was the worst Rangers squad, but now some are claiming we have the best team in the league & it's the manager's fault. I'd say Rohl & fans have been let down massively by certain players: Butland can't seem to save anything till we've 2 goals behind & Raskin is missing 80% of matches & our bench isn't good enough.
05 May 2026 14:38:07
Gotta agree with Djb about the squad. How anyone actually thinks it's good enough is wild.
We hardly have a good starting eleven. We have 1 good winger in Moore, and if he's not having a good day then attack is so poor.
Chermiti extremely frustrating. Miovski just isn't very good at all, and Naderi judgement is withheld until he gets a proper run.
Raskin & Diomande hide when things get tough. Chukwuani, I like him offensively, but think he needs a more disciplined partner to see the best of him.
Rommens and Fernandez, possibly Djiga? Think he's been better than Fernandez lately. Only two/three in defence worth talking about, rest can go.
05 May 2026 15:39:31
Albertz, think that's a bit harsh, mate. Rohl did not sign the vast majority of the squad. Every manager at every club, successful or not, brings in their own players, so Rohl does deserve a chance. He has done well, given the mess we were in when he came in, & as for 'you need to have won something to be Gers manager', who would you suggest? I'd suspect most managers who win things will go to better leagues & bigger clubs (financially).
05 May 2026 15:48:50
I think for those who really understand the modern game, money is no longer the main factor for success. Of course it helps, but it's no longer a guarantee for success - just look at Spurs, West Ham, Chelsea v's Bournemouth, Brentford, Brighton -.
Dare I say it, but Hearts have a better understanding of the modern model of how to invest properly in building a successful team than either of the Old Firm, and if we don't wake up quickly, we could find a gap that gets further away from us domestically.
We need a modern approach, investment in analytics, snap up the best talent from progressive leagues, as we can't afford those in elite leagues anymore - get a core of men who understand the league they will be playing in, week in week out, where it's not your technical ability that will win you games, but your desire and determination to win personal battles all over the pitch.
Again, I hate to refer to other clubs, but it's not the technical ability of Maeda that has enabled him to impact games, but purely attitude.
So many of the Hearts players epitomise that and couldn't hold a candle to the technical ability of those in royal blue, but that's what's successful in the league we play in.
Until we get that - we will continue to build teams for European football that fail domestically.
05 May 2026 16:38:51
Reading a strange quote in response to mine above - "Anyone, genuinely anyone, could have got us to finish 3rd in the league" - The vegan would have struggled to get us into the top six, as said by many people early season. I make no change to my statement, Danny Rohl worked a minor miracle over his tenure.
This was a team going nowhere, a ship with no rudder. To get us into contention is a job well done. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, though. I will say nothing further on this subject.
