All over Social media is pointing towards Jose or Gerrard getting the job seems to be everywhere for it not to be something in it?
In fact just read one that's saying Gerrard has agreed in principle to return Barry apparently offered to be his assistant but is choosing to leave his options open at the moment. No idea any truth in it or not.
I will say 49ers may want and could afford Jose
Whether they could entice him him is another story and I'm not sure how he would do up here yes great manager but falls out with folk to easily and had a lot of pay offs along with his successes.
Gerrard he did bring back a professionalism back to Ibrox he did start off our European runs and he did deliver 55 and when he left we were sitting top of the league and had got our team competing for the first time I think since we came back up?
I complained about him before 55 and wasn't entirely convinced but looking back I think now Tav as captain and seeing how many managers he's went through being Captain is a story in itself
For the 49ers Gerrard is a worldwide name and they may look upon his tenure before being a decent one and one they might think he could build on it with their backing?
I'm actually genuinely behind Gerrard coming back if that's who the 49ers want and they will back him to get a good team together he will have learned from last time and now knows what he's up against
For him to come back I'd reckon 49ers would have made promises so yeah I think I'd be genuinely happy to see him back.
Think we could do worse although some would say do better 😅.

Folk really need tae stay away from the papers, they talk absolute nonsense. Boookies also don't help as they know they can make a fortune off folk who buy into this and make decent odds on these guys.
Then folk canny count and think 2+2=5.
Come on Stig you should know by now it's just paper talk.

Stingo, Rangers ain't paying any manager 10m a season, lowering wages so we can pay our next manager 10m, do not think so.

I don't do social media but again since 49rs takeover news was broke i have always said GERRARD WILL BE BACK NEXT SEASON
I don't have any sources etc but if gerrard had the funds after he win 55 he would have not left for villa.

The rumours on twitter etc… are due to them being favs with the bookies.
I for one will/ can't get behind S. G. I just don't think I have it in me but will wait until Rangers appoint the next manager.

My star and BBJ
That's why I said I can't see it being Jose
I'm more inclined to think the Gerrard rumours could wave substance to it
What do you both think of the Gerrard Rumour?

No idea, Stig. But whoever we get has a massive job on their hands.

I would like to give my opinion on Jose, and that there isn't a snowballs chance in hell, he'll be our next manager.
Regardless of any buyout, we are not paying him what he'll demand to become our manager, and most importantly, we don't need the drama he'll stir up.
Who would want a manager who plays his ticket everytime he wants to leave his current club in order for a big pay off?

We would be better with Francie and Josie - rather than Gerrard or Jose - imho 🤔🤔🤔 - one for the more senior supporters👍 - at least we would get a funny laugh rather than the sad laugh we have had to endure for many a season supporting our club
Cmon consortium - make us truly smile and be happy again😁.

Cool stingo, hopefully it's not Gerrard, that would be the first wrong call from our new owners in my opinion but really can't see our next manager being Gerrard, he has failed everywhere.

The only article I've seen saying SG is back and BF as no 2 is the footballw gospel page, he's generally wrong more than he is right so I wouldn't pay it much attention.

My sentiments exactly with regards To Jose as stated above mate
He loves his pay offs 😉.

This whole Rumour started from McCoist on Talksport yesterday morning saying about mourinho and Gerrard it's unbelievable the amount of people on forums and social media who pretend there ITK or there mate is. 😂.

Listening to how they have done business with Leeds this organisation are serious with well balanced thought out mindset. There will be no scattergun approach of recklessness paying high wages to managers or players that don't merit the growth of the club. All their money and they signed nobody at Leeds in a Jan transfer window as they couldn't find the right player with the right profile or mentality. I love the thought of us being very well run after the last few years of not knowing when 2012 was potentially coming again. Exciting times coming 🏆.

If you showed Gerrard's track record with his name not shown. Everyone and I generally believe everyone would be shouting no way, no chance not good enough.

Correct pieter. I am very confident when I say S. G.
Will not be the next Rangers manager. It's just my opinion because anyone gets their knickers in a twist.

Guys for me it's a much better chance that Russell Martin will be our next manager as opposed to it being jose mourinho 🤔.

INTR gerrard knew we had 2 ways to get money to strengthen.
1, sell players. He refused.
2, beat malmo and get CL football. He failed.
It was his own fault he wasn't backed.

I honestly do not think the 49ers give a toss about a "big name" manager. It'll be whoever fits their and the DoF vision.

You ask my opinion on SG Stig.
Well for me there is no chance in hell do we bring him back after the way he left and I'm surprised as many would want him back.
He chose to leave us for a big club etc and tucked tail and ran. If he had come out and said I'm taking it to be close to my family again I would have understood but not to join a big club.
He should have sold many players but argued he wanted them to stay and we lost out big time, so it's a no for me as he has proved he really isn't that good a manager since he left. Still thank him for stopping 10IAR that's it.

Big Brenda ain't doing to bad across the city after coming back… Majority of their fans didn't want him back? Gerrard is probably already signed up to return and to be fair the list of candidates are shocking.

Fair assessment BBJ
Wonder if we will be surprised by who we get.

Correct BbJ just shows how desperate some of our fans are that they would take him back.

You're the 49ers, you can get jose, you have two clubs Rangers and Leeds hmmm.
Behave, jose is not going to be Rangers manager.

I would like an old head manager
this ideal of young manager is stupid he's just more likely to leave when a decent offer comes along.

I agree bbj I'll always thank Gerrard for stopping their tiar, but I would rather potential new owners look elsewhere when appointing a new manager. Gerrard's a no for me. I'm not keen on mourhino either.

I just want a manager who gives us an attacking style of play and not turgid sideways passing for no reason, hopefully whoever comes in to run the club gives the new manager decent funds to build a squad, i'm not expecting spending £10m on one player but i would at least expect to be able to buy 3 or 4 bits of quality at £4m or £5m if we get scouting right.
