Is there any further update on the 2 trialists (cb/ cm) who were offered contracts last week?

 1


02 Nov 2024 22:52:05
From memory, one of them isn't keen on playing Scotland and the other one potentially close. Neither of them particularly exciting as per John. May have been a later update that I've missed but that's the last I saw.

John, who was the prominent, left field CEO that turned us down the other day there mate 🤔 It's really about time we had this new CEO in place and chairman of course, even though i rate and have always liked john gilligan 🤔.

Golfed with three ex rangers me, no one has heard anything re us being rejected, does not mean it’s not happened.

Given that they would have applied for the position and gone through several interview stages. I would be surprised if anyone turned down the job that far down the road.

Rangers should have attracted a suitable candidate by now and it is a total farce. Douglas Park is still pulling the strings.

02 Nov 2024 14:20:19
When Clement was asked to sign his new contract and accept a different budget and wage bill, his lawyers made sure that early dismissal clauses were written into his contract. If he is sacked for any other reason except gross misconduct this season then his comp is increased dramatically.

It looks like there is no chance of him being sacked.

 2


02 Nov 2024 14:26:28
Cool story bro.

02 Nov 2024 14:33:18
King, why would he need a new contract and not just sign a years extension then?

Give us your cool story bro?

02 Nov 2024 14:48:32
How could you possibly know what's in Phillip Clements contract?

Amazing that 👍.

02 Nov 2024 15:19:24
Super Ally, I don't know what's in his contract as in I don't know what the exact clauses are. I am told that he asked for written assurances that he wouldn't be sacked in the first year. Firstly is that too hard to believe and secondly, what would you do if you were in his position?

 1


02 Nov 2024 15:33:00
Absolute nonsense. How do you know what’s in his contract?

 2


02 Nov 2024 15:37:29
He doesn't.

 1


02 Nov 2024 16:09:59
I don't find it hard to believe that he maybe asked not to be sacked in the first year of his contract. I would be astonished if anybody at board level or indeed the legal department at ibrox would consider signing off on that. I kniw our board haven't covered themselves in glory but it would be madness to say that you can't sack your manager without massive penalties. Also why would they give him a new contract. They woulds just left him on the old one.

 0


02 Nov 2024 16:11:31
Once AGAIN, I don't know what in his contract and neither do anyone saying there is no such clause.
Can anyone give me a yes or no to the following questions.
If the board were to offer him a lower budget and a lower wage bill would he be wise to ask for an assurance that he wouldn't be sacked?
Why was he so sure yesterday that he won't be sacked?

02 Nov 2024 16:56:29
Rick, I don't it's a rumour!

 0


02 Nov 2024 17:44:41
DeBoer; I agree no manager is going to accept a huge reduction on his wage budget and the culling of his most experienced players without some sort of reassurances he would be given time to build a team so in answer to your question I wouldn’t be surprised if his lawyers have got some clause written in but I have no proof of it just my thoughts.

 2


02 Nov 2024 18:21:26
Twacoos also I have no proof either. It's a rumour on a rumour site after all. If he's still here in 2 months and we're still third then it will probably explain things.

02 Nov 2024 18:51:02
Clement wanted to resign. That’s why he was given a new contract.

What if you know you’re a poor manager and would happily sign any extension with any conditions before you get found out.

A lot of the problem is players don't care that much anymore with a few exceptions, look at Cantwell as an example, has talent but he as he himself said is not willing to change for anyone, they all know if Rangers want you out that's fine because someone else will take them and as for younger players all of them can either play lower league football in England and make a good living or at worst a club in Scotland, as for youth it's all about going to England and filling your pockets and who can blame them . the days of a John Brown, Davie Cooper are over .

 8


02 Nov 2024 09:22:18
Im wondering if the way he dealt with Cantwell backfired on him. Was he thinking all the players would then toe the line and now their thinking what an a hole, I dunno. Maybe the Cantwell situation could of been handled better, we were better with him than without.

 10


02 Nov 2024 10:02:23
This is exactly why traditional methods of scouting are far better than stat recruitment and always will be. When you traditionally scout a player you learn a lot more particularly mentality. Sadly, mentality for the fight is what the majority of our players lack, particularly our captain. It was said on here that the modern day captain does need the mentality of the old skool captain. More heads buried in the sand.

 5


02 Nov 2024 11:31:05
Agree mate. It is in self though a time consuming role. Thus stats and you tube videos 😁 lazy method and probably more cost affective. Let guess. All the top teams are doing it. 😁.

 1


02 Nov 2024 12:06:47
Personally don’t think you should ever weaken the team just to make a point, if that was the case Gazza would never had a career!

We should have kept Cantwell the until we had someone better lined up. Same with every position.

You can see know how far in front Celtic are. If they get an offer for any player they already have their replacement (at least short term) in the building. Whilst we go from one disaster to another.

And once again (like Sima last year and Tillman the year before) one of our most effective players is a loan deal.

 2


02 Nov 2024 12:07:22
I disagree Karlo, I don’t think it’s one or the other (sorry I work in data 😀) . Data / stats can be used to point you in the direction of where to look and in my opinion traditional scouting should then kick in.

Given my job I’m looking forward to seeing how machine learning and AI could help point us closer again.

 2


02 Nov 2024 12:31:21
Karlo that’s nonsense most clubs if not all are data driven now for players.

 2


02 Nov 2024 12:34:02
I clearly remember Cantwell getting it big time on here and most wanting rid. Now apparently we were better with him than without him. I've seen similar comment on Morelos Hagi, and even lammers 🤣. People have short memories about what was posted on players who left.

 5


02 Nov 2024 13:04:44
Interesting Dado, but is machine learning not initially reliant on tactile data input at initial stage, the computation in finding the correct algorithm to unlock the answers in the data streams is quite complex dependent on what you want as your answer, but aye would like to see it in operation 👍👍.

Be afraid be very afraid . a few people now praising Lampard as tactical genius including sir Fergie, F**** is out of work cocker so maybe he's the saviour innit? Either for us Torquay or Saarfen united . Hoof ball McInnes would cost compen .

02 Nov 2024 13:31:44
We were a much better side with Cantwell in it, he brought energy and creativity and a bit of needle, and we didn`t replace him, however, he asked to go, he didn`t like the way things were in Scotland, where he couldn`t get away with all his social media stuff and became a target. It was nothing to do with things on the field, he was playing regularly and in his proper position . Once he asked to go then it is right he should be left out the team for pre season friendlies when we are trying to sort out how we are going to play when the season starts.
If he prefers to play Championship football rather than challenge for trophies and play in Europe then that says more about him than our manager or our club.

 1


02 Nov 2024 13:33:12
Love him or loathe him we do miss Cantwell. At least if he got on the ball he would try and be creative. The team doesn't have that focal point now. Bajrami/ Cerny could be if they find more consistency.

 3


02 Nov 2024 13:42:56
I know they do Stromtrooper, but that's not what I said. I said data scouting will never be better than traditional. You just have to look at the mess data scouting has got us into. We were most successful when we used to go and watch a player.

 1


02 Nov 2024 13:47:26
Like I said short memories, he was called an empty Jersey and a sand dancer on here. That was nothing to do with his social media but his on field performance. Players always seem to be remembered as better than they were once they've left.

02 Nov 2024 14:53:01
It’s not better at the moment tho say again it’s nonsense.

From Tom English, BBC website:-

"In the dog days of early season, after Dynamo Kyiv had put them out of the Champions League and Celtic had put them to the sword in the Premiership, a senior figure at Rangers spoke about the importance of backing Philippe Clement.
The gist was this: Clement had proven himself to be a competent manager in his first season and would get the time he needed to rebuild his team, no matter the heat that came from supporters if things got bumpy on the road, no matter if Celtic won the league this season and next.
There would be no knee-jerk reaction, no continuation of the short-lived spells of Giovanni van Bronckhorst and Michael Beale, no throwing good money after bad in a frenzied pursuit of their city rivals.
As they strived to create a financially self-sufficient club, a functioning player-trading model and a bright new team on the park, they would put their foot on the ball and show patience."

Not sure how truthful or reliable the source is.

 13


01 Nov 2024 16:55:38
If (emphasis on If) this is true, then our incompetent board are playing a very dangerous game.

As much as I can't stand English, it wouldn't surprise me if one of our overly arrogant bloatd members would come out with something like this.

 2


01 Nov 2024 17:20:23
Complete insanity giving Clement a new contract in the summer.

 5


01 Nov 2024 17:27:41
Thats playing with fire. I think that mentality will burn more bridges than build them with the fans.

 2


01 Nov 2024 17:36:53
I think there are 2 major factors about how much truth is in this story for me.
A- Tom English
B- BBC

Both hate Rangers and both love telling lies so the simple maths of A+B=💩.

 12


01 Nov 2024 17:38:49
It's absolutely crazy how nobody really understands how bad the situation financially at the club is and the drastic steps needed to stop us going under again. I wish they'd have just come out and said it black and white at the start of the season. Winning 55 was not done at all sustainably. That's no excuse that's just reality. The players are buckling under the pressure because of this, since day 1 of the season folk had started jeering. Who wants to perform under that? It'll suck the life out of them. It's such a grim fure cycle we've been stuck in and the reality is it's going to be a horrible and painful season and I absolutely hate that but hopefully a season that changed the future for the club.

Makes perfect sense.
Stick to the model, stop chasing Celtic until we are secure.
It is what it is.
We missed a trick not backing SG, but we are where we are.

 19


01 Nov 2024 18:47:06
We are where we are. It's painful, frustrating and atm not good enough, but we've no other option. Apparently we are STILL paying for Gvb and Beale? Sacking Clement and his team atm isn't going to happen. We'll need to unfortunately stick with it and hope it gets better soon.

01 Nov 2024 18:53:18
Problem being there is a new variable to deal with. Aberdeen now 9pts in front. 👍.

01 Nov 2024 19:07:00
The amount of money we've wasted on ridiculous wages to below average players certainly hasn't helped us financially.

 12


01 Nov 2024 19:09:04
The board will not allow for us to lose any potential champions League money. That would be akin to criminal negligence.

 1


01 Nov 2024 19:31:33
Rabbi - Good post - we rewarded those who stopped the Terry Munro but now to a cost - but also it must be noted that Sir Alex was basically out on his ear at Man Utd many moons ago and not that I compare the two managers nor teams but circumstances are extremely tough at the moment and yes I don't like some nonsense big Phil spouts but changing a manager every year will eventually kill us again - THIS CANNOT HAPPEN -my gut feeling is he will have at least this full season in charge so we need to accept this or just close the Effin doors at Ibrox - sometimes better the devil you know - and come on its obvious the cards he has been dealt are way from the bottom of the pack!
We still need Tavernier (along with few more) gone to further reduce wages and errors and get a REAL captain in the building IMHO.

 11


01 Nov 2024 19:42:42
Much as I hate English, what he says is pretty much the truth and it wasn`t anybody telling him something on the fly . What he is quoting is more or less what Bennett said in his presser about the Copland delay, he spoke about cost cutting, huge losses and the need to stand by the manager who he trusted to put things right. It could only come from him because he was the only person in charge of the club at the time.

 6


01 Nov 2024 20:00:17
JR SG was backed.

 2


01 Nov 2024 20:15:22
Sunshine it's the reality of the club though. The club should have just come out clear as day to state how bad things are themselves. Instead even the finances report they tried to put positive spin on it. Because of all this it's created this absolutely toxic atmosphere that the players are buckling in. We now need a loyal to the club but clued up CEO and Chairman to keep us on track. I've been called a happy clapper over and over for stating reality.

I'm not happy at the state of the club it absolutely destroys me but I have seen actions taken now for the future. The appointment of Koppen, the culling of wages, Clement also mentioned today they wanted more out but essentially nobody wanted them. We need stability more than anything else, Clement is risking his whole reputation to steady the ship. However we must finish 2nd and we must finish 2nd convincingly.

 7


01 Nov 2024 21:30:07
My issue just is the last manager we gave time to was Gerrard who I think we will all agree put together a cracking team but the big failure was not selling players at their peak value. The biggest difference between Gerrard and Clement is that Gerrards team had a direction and style of playing. The team were getting better with every addition. Just now I think the players we've brought in can be developed in to great players but we lack proven experienced winners. We need to either back Clement and bring in those players, wrong decision for me, or we cut him now and start again with yet another new management team.

 0


01 Nov 2024 22:09:03
I would take the Boydie stance on this that the new deal wouldn’t make a difference his payoff will have been agreed and will be the same … we need to sack him asap….

 0


01 Nov 2024 22:57:00
The financial mess can be used as an excuse against celtic and Europe but not in comparison with getting played off the park by Aberdeen and Killie and struggling against St mirren. Even with cut backs we still miles ahead of them financially.

01 Nov 2024 23:54:33
It's all fine and well saying we'll stand our ground and back the manger and we need to do better with player trading.
Now for the reality we're 9 points behind and does anyone think that is going to change any time soon if anything we could go further behind in 3rd.
If we finish 3rd this season we are worse off again.
And as for the player trading who have we signed that looks like we'll make money on?
Cause for me it's nobody diomande has been terrible this season cortes sick note our strikers will leave at a loss we all know this.
Bajrami looks okay but he's not a LW
Young barron looks good but that's not going to get us big money.
Start of the season we could have got 10 million for butland now it looks more like 5 Cause teams will know we are desperate for money.

Player trading only works if teams are winning trophies and playing in the champions league.

Clement is done it's a matter of when not if.
The board are the reason we are in this mess.
Until they are replaced by some other people we as fans will have no trust in anything they do.
Even now if they sacked Clement would you trust them to hire the right manger cause I sure ss hell don't.
I know it's easy to say now but at the time I wanted muscat just because he plays attacking football.
Unfortunately I think that ship has sailed.

Scottj - Sack the man then repeat - is that the way forward? - who do u suggest then? - its the boards and shambolic leadership of yesteryear who have created this mess - not the man who is carrying the can and has to front up the change that is now FORCED upon our club - Sir Alex was wanted out when results wee poor - Arteta was wanted out, the list goes on. time allowed things to materialise and develop - we want things to happen instantly - how NAIVE and ENTITLED do we actually look and sound at present - NO MAGIC WANDS HERE BOYS - SUPPORT THE CLUB AND PUT THE KNIFES AWAY FOR NOW AT LEAST.

02 Nov 2024 09:59:12
To go from Cup win last season and whisker of competing for title due to our serial losers bottling it once more - where do you want the club to go Storm? I Understand currently we seem to be up rubbish creek without a paddle but who IS the right man for the job then? - most on here want PC out but who will come in - some want Ally back. Jesus Christ! - our business model/ inept previous boards have put us here so do we want to grow or just keep throwing money at this by having a managerial merrygoround as our norm when we are skint
The supposed great SG had lots more cash to throw around and what did we get - domination - I think NOT - REALISM NEEDS TO BE OUR MANTRA AT MOMENT.

From what i have heard is that there was a board meeting today and PC has been told if he does not win this weekend he will be gone as we will be 9 points behind in the league and out the league cup which is the best chance of trophy this season.

31 Oct 2024 21:36:04
Doubt it ibrox.

 12


31 Oct 2024 22:31:33
There is no way he is getting sacked. The powers that be gave this guy a contract extension which was totally unjustified imo. I was surprised he got the job in the first place. He has clearly taken the board for a ride with his chat.
Don't forget that most fans were praising this guy for the last year.

We sacked a better coach that got us to a euro final and got left with Sands and King as CB's.

The club are too invested in Clement and Gilligan thinks he is very 'impressive'.

 8


31 Oct 2024 22:45:14
If we win at the weekend we are still just another defeat from it bubbling up. He needs to go. Not one fan I know wants him.

 15


31 Oct 2024 23:33:09
If he's sacked then welcome Alex Rae and the Gilmour guy as interim boss and assistant for months till they find an out of work better option, when you have grifters and dullards who know nothing about football running the show this is the type of nonsense to be expected.

 4


01 Nov 2024 00:39:03
Alex Rae who’s on his staff? That makes some amount of sense.

not backing pc but you cannot say a guy who’s won multiple trophy’s in Belgium as Both a player and mangers and even had Brugge playing some quality football in the champions league against Real Madrid ect knows nothing about football. It’s all went a bit Pete tong here and he won’t be given time but I suspect he will probably go else where and be successful again.

01 Nov 2024 04:56:10
Philippe clement won't get the sack and the majority of us know that and the reasons behind it 🤔.

 7


01 Nov 2024 06:12:00
Fail to beat motherwell and he'll be gone, wins then it's a stay of execution for me, can't see how he can possibly turn it around, if he does, great, but needs to be a sustained and marked increase in performance, shape, style and desire.

 3


01 Nov 2024 08:34:40
Fork a lot said the same thing if we lost to aberdeen mate and that didn't happen 🤔I still don't think he'll be sacked even if we lost to motherwell on sunday, god forbid 🤔.

 6


01 Nov 2024 08:56:51
If somehow we can get cortes and danilo fit and Cerny keeps his form he has half a chance to put a run together but he has to be ruthless and drop tav for either sterling or kasa, play bajrami as our 10 but our defense struggle and we don't seem to have a structure that breaks teams down a lot of our goals are individual like the 1 from bajrami against sheep, personally desperate for him to succeed but think his stubborn side won't allow him to make the changes we need.

 4


01 Nov 2024 09:29:29
Fail to beat aberdeen and he was gone we read but he is still here, fail to beat motherwell and he will still be here, there's nobody at our club that has the bottle to sack him, if they do you can bet there will be an almighty disruption in what's left of our boardroom, and could take us a long long time to recover from this.

 3


01 Nov 2024 10:45:47
That board should be nowhere near a football club, suppose that's the same for most clubs in Scotland they only want a free hurl, tie and blazer but we have a right shower possibly the worst example in the land .

Onewalter, if our defence struggles and we don`t have a structure to break teams down and score goals, and you are right about both, we have no chance of winning games consistently . That is the two fundamentals of football that we are failing at .
Maybe instead of waiting for players to maybe get fit the manager should try a change of system that will improve us in both areas rather than the one he uses which doesn`t work and doesn`t suit the players we do have.

That board is inept. They are responsible for the shambolic mess we are in. Beales appointment, Stadium fiasco, Clements contract and our continued failure each and every window in the transfer market. I do not trust them to make any decisions for Rangers football club moving forward.

Surely there have to be some conditions relating to his contract extension? Like maybe win a game or two now and again ☹️.

My comment re grifters and dullards was directed at the board, some people canny think too goodly on here mum should post for them . Clement must have some ability of course as he has had success in the country where they put mint sauce on their chips.

Doesn't quite feel like a sacking is imminent. Not so much that it doesn't seem inevitable but more so that the club as a whole is a absolute s*** show.

Struggle v Motherwell and get pumped by Olympiakos and his jaiket is on a shaky nail. This guy doesn't even see his side has no pace and a imposter striker who has no idea where to be and slow as treacle and when he somehow does get in the right place he dithers, misses and falls on his arse. Sterling played up front in Chelsea youth and did well so maybe he could have a go, couldn't be any worse.

I think he has to win the Motherwell game and go on a winning run domestically but I don`t think the Olympiacos will be a factor if we lose it, the fans won`t like it, especially if its a heavy defeat but the board will not react.

Unfortunately there is nothing we can do about the Dessers situation, we only have him, plus an injured strikers and a raw youngster. That was an exposure we all saw in the summer but those at the club decided to stick with it although we all saw enough of Dessers last season to know that he wasn`t the answer . I still say his missed easy chances cost us the title last season in the end.

Don`t see Sterling as being able to play there he had two great chances on Wednesday night and muffed them both . Why not play Tav he`s a better finisher in the box and it would get him away from our defensive area . Win, win.

wsl, I believe we accepted offers for Dessers but he didn't want to go, so in that regard I think we were a bit unlucky, it was clear that we needed a new striker but clearly we didn't have the finances to sign one on top of the other positions.

Yeah I read it slanted that way, but I also read that Clement didn`t want to lose him . He must be the only one.
Not paying £1.7 million for Igamane and instead using that money to buy a proper striker would have freed up some cash, sell Matondo who is useless and there is some more to add to it .
We could have kept Davies who is not great but still better than Propper and saved £1.5 million which could have gone towards a new striker. If we had got someone in early enough, Dessers would have read the writing on the wall and would have wanted to leave rather than be second or third choice.

Many wanted Shankland but right now he couldn't hit a bison on the bum with a banjo.
