Rangers Transfer Rumours

16 May 2026 20:30:42
Seemingly now FC Porto credited with an interest in our striker youssef Chermiti 🤔 I wouldn't have thought they would be able to afford what we would be wanting to contemplate selling Chermiti 🤔The report i read stated porto joined a list of clubs showing an interest in Chermiti 🤔 i wonder who the other interested clubs are, does anyone know 🤔

16 May 2026 20:51:56
PSV interested as well.

16 May 2026 21:04:12
EUR20m is small change to teams like Porto & PSV, who will have Champions League money to invest.

16 May 2026 21:10:00
25m+ before we talk.

16 May 2026 21:23:22
We are a selling club, difficult to keep players when we could be in Conference League, assuming we would qualify. If Celtic win the Cup, we would go into 3rd qualifying round of Europa League.

Fans will need to be more realistic in their valuations of our better players. Wouldn't be surprised if we had to sell our top 3 valued players. That's my view only.

16 May 2026 21:31:41
Porto have plenty of money, just think of the profits they have made from transfers alone.

16 May 2026 21:38:21
Porto could easily afford him Coops.

16 May 2026 22:08:31
Besiktas also apparently interested again. They were reportedly interested in January. They could also afford him. Spent 63mil euro in the past year, bought a striker (can't remember his name) from Wolves for around 20mil.

16 May 2026 22:18:55
Double your cash after 1 year, I'd be happy. Still think about 15. 🤷🏼

16 May 2026 17:21:24
Spoke to someone at the game re Cavanagh, he said he understands the hans, and the manager will be backed. Him Gillespie and magathe were all treat very respectfully.

16 May 2026 17:25:58
Rohl better hit the ground running because he'll not have much patience from a large section of our support.

16 May 2026 17:28:42
I try not to take pressers or interviews with a pinch of salt most of the time, but Danny does not sound like a man who's fearing for his job nor ready to walk out.

16 May 2026 17:29:39
Question is, John, is that manager going to be Rohl? Or are they going to start searching again?

16 May 2026 17:34:26
Supposed to be "I try to take".

16 May 2026 17:37:10
Rfc, the manager for the start of next will be Danny Rohl, my friend. 🤔

16 May 2026 17:59:37
First time I've heard you mention that SWS. 😂😂😂

16 May 2026 18:00:06
Rfc, he was asked that, and he replied the manager will be backed.

That's a move, Walter. U said he would be manager next season, do u now think he may only start it?

16 May 2026 18:13:37
Depressed even more now!

16 May 2026 18:17:17
Wonder who the manager will be. Maybe job title changing from head coach.

16 May 2026 18:36:54
Hope most of us are eating our words, but we are set up to fail next season with Rohl as our manager.

16 May 2026 18:47:25
I think he'll come good if he's backed.

16 May 2026 19:19:44
Don't think we'll have too long to wait till the chairman updates us all.

16 May 2026 19:27:57
Effectively throwing another season down the toilet if things go wrong after he's backed Rohl after originally backing Martin. There will be a fair portion of the support who will put pressure on the board again.

For me the new owners are sleepwalking into some major problems, spending huge sums of money, winning zero titles, no Champions League or Europa money, wage bill going upwards again.



They may have good intentions, but they need to really rethink the approach they've had in the first year, as it just can't go on.

16 May 2026 19:34:23
Telling you right now, next season is going to be a disaster if we stick with this manager.

Would love nothing more than to eat my words and admit I was wrong, but I genuinely don't see it.

Rohl has lost a majority of fans.
And it's a good job most of the squad is leaving, because they didn't look to be enjoying playing under him.



Guess we'll soon find out what happens, but after this rubbish show of a season we could really be doing with some stability on and off the park, and starting off with a manager people don't want is truly not ideal.

16 May 2026 19:37:48
Our great club should not be represented by Dr. Simply look at and judge any manager on the results and spend on the squad - value for money. Should any manager survive? Across the city, an OAP has embarrassed us and it's not the first.

It hasn't worked, hold our hands up, move on. He won't bring back the glory days, it's obvious. We need to stop getting behind failure and says "Let's get behind the losing team as it continues to lose".

16 May 2026 19:53:02
Jesus, I thought he was going. We are not winning nothing with Rohl, unfortunately.
He doesn't have the experience to win trophies.
Surely people can see this.

How can you reward failure, especially when the pressure is on. Rohl hasn't a clue.
It's truly unbelievable sticking with Rohl.

16 May 2026 20:00:22
Fun fact Danny Rohl lost more than double the amount of games Russell Martin did in Scotland this season, but yeah let's give him 30+ million.

16 May 2026 20:11:04
Muscatin, also something I've already said here many times: why is it when we have men with very little experience in charge we give them way more money, Gerrard, Beale, Martin, while Clement and Gio not as much.

16 May 2026 20:13:13
Finishing 3rd gets you another year and even more money to spend? We need our own experienced coach to turn things around.

16 May 2026 20:21:25
Muscat, there's a recruitment team, it's not like Rohl does the buying.

16 May 2026 20:22:45
Forever, because we don't learn any lessons, another summer shopping in the English lower leagues will show that once again.

16 May 2026 20:33:53
And if they'd done the right thing and sacked Martin sooner he would have lost even fewer games. What a ridiculous way to use stats, because u don't like Rohl. Rohl had a far higher points per game ratio, almost double.

16 May 2026 20:33:56
It's funny, he said the manager will be backed and couldn't verify if it would be Rohl.

Maybe I'm reading into that more than I should.

16 May 2026 20:35:14
True blue like Martin before him, they always get a few of their own players, ie in January Skov Olsen and Naderi were pushed for by Rohl.

16 May 2026 20:40:56
Here's another Kaiser, he has a worse win % than Clement or Beale. 👍👍 Useless stats of facts that show he's one of the worst managers our club has ever had? Lost 4 in a row.

🫣 I'm allowed my opinion just like you. Now, if you can't be friendly, don't call things ridiculous because you don't agree with them. 👍 If you back Rohl that's your choice.

16 May 2026 20:43:08
Oh, and the champions and Hearts lost far more games than Russell Martin too. 🤷🤦

16 May 2026 20:46:41
Kaiser, it's easy to get more points when you play treble the amount of games as Martin did.

As Muscatin2 said, if you back him, fair enough, but you are definitely in the minority.

I'm more than willing to hold my hands up if he stays and he's a success.
Can the folk who back him do the same if he fails?

16 May 2026 21:43:23
I want him gone. His win % is terrible. He improved us slightly, that is all. We keep losing goals. I want him gone, but if the chairman sticks with him I will back him and be right behind him next season. He has beaten Celtic once and Hearts once, and Celtic had Nancy in charge at that time.

All the people that said we had a better squad and starting 11 need to have a good look in the mirror. Best 11 and best squad win the league and we were 3rd. 👌

16 May 2026 21:32:27
I think I need a drink 🙈

16 May 2026 22:16:33
Muscatin, at least you're Beale and Clement comparison is reasonable, mate, and of course you're entitled to your opinion, but your other stat is still ridiculous because you're bound to lose more over the season than a guy who's only in for 2 mins, and still he never lost more than the champions. Sorry though for being disrespectful. 👍

16 May 2026 22:23:50
Alex, that's why I said points per game and not just points cause it's not just about playing more games. Also, never said if I was still backing him, but he's still far better than Martin. Anyway. I apologise for reacting, just still really fed up.

16 May 2026 22:47:09
I understand it's been years of pain, disappointment and grief, but our fans really are so quick to turn on everyone when things aren't going how they want.

I'm curious as to why Gerard was given so much grace until he won a title in his third year, but everyone else isn't good enough after some poor results?

A lot of our fanbase is toxic, times are changing and I'm hardly surprised players want away.

The love and adoration is only conditional. I wouldn't feel wanted and welcome either if I was only treated with respect when winning.

Can we have a word with ourselves, please, and get behind in the good and the tough.

16 May 2026 23:11:30
Gazza, Gerrard would have been out before the COVID season, according to the majority of our fans, and Celtic would be on fifteen leagues in a row now.
This resolving door is the reason we win nothing.

16 May 2026 11:26:33
Where have all the Rumours and chat gone re, Dahl, Anderson and all the rumours about these key signing for next season?

16 May 2026 12:08:08
Be very surprised if anyone with their calibre wants to come to the 3rd best team in such a poor Scottish league.
That plus we don't have much spending power now that we won't be in the Champions League.

16 May 2026 12:12:44
To my understanding, Bobby (which could be completely wrong).

No Dahl. Yes Anderson (provided certain players move on - that are likely to). Skoglund is a goer. A young South American winger. All loanees going home.

I may be forgetting something, but that's my (potentially incorrect) information. Also, there is much more transfer business outwith the above, but that's the details I have thus far.

16 May 2026 12:13:23
Gone now looking at bargain basement as Americans for me making mistake after mistake after mistake.


Rohl should be gone, even in team selection today it's obvious he has no idea what his best team is.

Do we really want to give him the funds to sign guys?

16 May 2026 12:13:52
Spent 40 million last season and weren't in the Champions League.

16 May 2026 12:28:27
Sco11 is 40million not a lot? As we've not been in the Champions League for years. Think we will spend about 20 mill this summer. But Hearts have gone and proved it can be done on a shoestring budget.

16 May 2026 12:45:04
Think we spent £40 million in the hope we could claw some of that back with winning the league and almost guaranteed Champions League footie.

16 May 2026 14:40:28
Hearts have proved it can't be done, they haven't won anything, Peter.

16 May 2026 14:45:30
Fore, and to think we were told on here, that Andrew had everything in control and knew 100% what he was doing?

16 May 2026 15:05:11
Doesn't matter how much money there is to spend when it's spent on either sub standard players or the coaching team are incapable of getting them to play football properly.

16 May 2026 15:07:53
Hearts have got better value for their money than us, Stormtrooper, by a country mile.

16 May 2026 15:33:20
Yateley, tell us who you want to own the club. I'm really interested, u seem to have great difficulty backing most things to do with club.

16 May 2026 15:43:29
John, you are always defensive, and not everyone is happy with what's going on with the way the club is being run. I respect your opinion, John, but the nonsense spoken about our Chairman being in control is not true. We have all welcomed our Owners, and I hope they learn from their mistakes as this season has been a shocker.

I can count on one hand how many times I have been entertained going to games, with the football awful. Anyway, season over, and look forward to next. 🇬🇧 ✌️

16 May 2026 16:30:26
Anyone having a go at the owners needs to take a look at themselves. They've gotten us out of a hole financially, backed the managers. They've gotten us don't make the manager or players make decisions and they don't have a crystal ball on how a manager is going to perform.

16 May 2026 16:45:30
Lately, A.C is just in the door, mate, give him a bit of breathing space.

16 May 2026 16:57:05
"I hope they learn from their mistakes."
I agree, Fraser. 👍 ✌️

16 May 2026 17:16:31
Yateley, not defensive, simply a realist. We had King Park Bennett Gibson struggling from month to month to feed us.

Yateley, you're talking to different things, being entertained and the chairman's role, a guy who has put 40 million in, and bought out majority of the shares.

If he had not done that, we would be gone.

I know it's not easy, but we need to be patient.

The good thing is Graeme Park wants Black on the board.

16 May 2026 17:39:28
Bunster, where did I say they hadn't?

16 May 2026 17:46:08
John not picking sides or having a go at anyone but the way that end of the season came in shocking

Between mediocre players thinking a draws good enough

The whole Tav thing

Total mentality falling apart

But season in season out you never seem to like to hear we are being run bad

We are now being ran as a second rate Club, bloody finishing 3rd is appallingly crap

But if any negativity comes from emdy you seem to take it personally

What a fall apart n terrible season
So I'd love to hear from you What's good about it
We seem no further forward

What's acceptable about that
Mediocre, crap n shocking standards
Laughing n joking with opposition players
When getting beat
Shocking managerial decisions
Throwing games away

People are calling it out
Nothing to defend here John n not a personal pop at you but it's truth from angry fans let down again
Garbage n tripe

N yet another captain let
Down
Shambles n embarrassing the way that was handled 😳

So when we start winning
Or have silverware maby folk will be more positive

But yet again another season let down
Talk of a new manager ripping up n starting again

Nothing to show
Trophyless season again
What's to defend p@#s poor
All over

Tripe
No better off
Prove me wrong John
When we win somthing
Until then shambles

16 May 2026 18:27:15
I'd say Rohl got much better out of many players such as Chermiti, Moore, Fernandez and bought well in winter with exception of Skov which no one predicted. Looks like a few tgst won't be here or first choice next year, chucked their dummies. Today's result makes me think the core who will be here are backing Rohl.

16 May 2026 18:44:26
The Russell Martin appointment was criminal and we all knew it, apart from our Boardroom!! Honestly Shocking and Cavanagh took responsibility for this.

16 May 2026 20:18:33
Funny, same people defending new owners even though lurching from mistake to mistake that supported the old board.

Shilling for club one thing, shilling for business men is something else.

And does anyone really believe that people put their own money in anymore when it's against the rules. This is always in the form of loans to the club that will always become due at some point.

But heyho, people can just keep sticking their head in the sand and pretending these people are doing a great job.



Fire a decent man in Clement, hire a pretender to run things, who in turn hires Martin against everyone's wishes, then let that man scare off likes of Muscat and Gerrard in favour of untested or inexperienced Rohl, who also ruled himself out previously, spending silly money, increasing club debt, and history looks to be repeating itself for next season.

American owners in British business tends not to be good for workers or product in my opinion.

16 May 2026 20:28:48
People need to get a grip about slagging the owners. They have made mistakes, but they have been here a year and have put £40m in already. Cavanagh clearly cares and wants success. They will get it right eventually. The board did their job in January. They gave Danny all the tools, and he has fallen short.

Whether or not we stick with him is another story, but you can see where the board is coming from when they don't want to keep repeating previous mistakes of sacking manager after manager without allowing them time.

16 May 2026 20:30:04
Blue dream little secret. I've been there, it's not easy losing money hand over fist.

I first came on here and said we would constantly struggle and be a club winning one in ten if lucky. Yes, I back people like King, Park, Bennett, Gibson who lost millions keeping us afloat.



What is it, three trophies out of 33.

The damage that was done can't be repaired in a year. Look inside the stadium, training centre, it's crumbling.

16 May 2026 21:45:12
Baz bought better? Rommens, yes, but Naderi has to prove himself, he is injury prone and we spanked 4.5 million on him. So we didn't have a great Jan as it looked like we did on paper.

16 May 2026 11:09:15
Not sure if already been posted but apparently we're after akpo victory. Nigerian centre half from a club in Hungary. 4.3 million the figure quoted with teams around Europe also interested.

16 May 2026 11:41:21
Hopefully he can lead us to victory.

16 May 2026 12:06:13
After doing more digging, it seems the 19-year-old is of a similar mould to Fernandez. At 6'5 he's dominant in the air, has a calmness on the ball, and is able to read danger early. Benfica also interested and has had scouts from clubs in Germany, Spain, and France all monitoring his progress.

16 May 2026 15:06:56
Sounds too good to be true, Dio, so that means it likely will be, esp if Benfica & teams from Germany & Spain are loitering.

16 May 2026 11:07:08
Anything in the renewed apparent interest in Finn Geragusian at Sunderland. Mind we were linked previously.

16 May 2026 11:26:24
Don't know much about this player, Fork.
What's your thoughts, any good?

16 May 2026 11:47:32
Some reports this morning saying we're showing interest again. 18yrs old, yet to make his first senior appearance. 25 goals and 10 assists in 60 matches for U18s and 21s. Out of contract this summer, but they're keen to keep him. Plenty of suitors apparently.

16 May 2026 12:46:52
Same here bud, apparently doing OK, called up at 18 to Armenia squad (I know), but kinda in the dark though, a few others looking at him.

16 May 2026 14:34:18
Nice one.
Will have a look when I get a minute at any vids on line. 😊👍

16 May 2026 15:18:42
No worries. 👍

16 May 2026 06:05:55
Just heard McClean and Patterson are confirmed for next season, hearing we have also secured our key midfield target for next season from a club in Scandinavia

Can anyone else ITK confirm this?

Also reaffirming my previous post regarding Raskin and Chermiti, the club have multiple big teams interested in both, min combined fees will be at least £36mil

The club have already started talks with Fernandez regarding a new contract

All great business IMO

16 May 2026 08:44:05
If we somehow manage to keep Fernandez, at least we're doing something right somewhere.

16 May 2026 08:44:58
Must be about a £25M sale for Chermiti then, Raskin's buy out clause can't be over 10-15?

16 May 2026 08:46:33
Mclean, yes, he's the type of player/profile we badly miss (a proper Rangers man from a proper Rangers family), also a scheme kid from the circuit in Cambuslang, something every Rangers team needs, ie Ferguson Ferguson Ferguson. 🤣


Patterson, no thanks, he's injured more than Roofe.

16 May 2026 08:57:17
Patterson is not good business, it's complete madness to get a right back that's never fit.

16 May 2026 08:57:46
Chermiti 25m
Raskin 15m. He's worth more, but won't sign a new deal, so it's sell or value starts going down.
Fernandez 20m
Diomande 8m

That's the bones of 70m we are rumoured to be bringing in for these players alone. I would imagine 40m from this would be added to funds to rebuild the squad again over the next 2 windows, but it needs to be spent more wisely, that's last season.



That's without Aasgaard and Gassama being sold, who are both apparently available as well.

The 49ers do this at Leeds, sell a load and bring in others with half that money and do it again the next season. Seems that's what they want to do here.

16 May 2026 09:19:41
AK, how do you know Raskin has a buy out clause?

16 May 2026 09:21:22
Correct, John, it's lost the site a lot of info over the years.

16 May 2026 09:24:53
It's 2 early in the morning.

16 May 2026 09:28:41
That key midfielder may be Hjerto-Dahl or Silas Anderson, hopefully. 🙏🙏🔴⚪️🔵

16 May 2026 09:35:29
Really hope your right mate, but can't see us getting anything like 25m for Chermiti. He's not even worth what we paid for him. And with awful PSR rules in England now, apart from the really top clubs, who's going to pay that?

Top clubs in Europe will pay top dollar for players under 22 who hit double digits for goals in any league in Europe. In the modern data driven era, it draws the attention of big clubs, so 25m isn't too much to ask considering his deal was 11m total to join us.

16 May 2026 09:42:04
There is absolute zero chance of 25mill for Chermiti. Zero! imo.

16 May 2026 09:47:54
There was a midfielder being shown round the other day, wasn't Hjerto-Dahl or Silas Anderson?

16 May 2026 09:55:24
MuscatIn, actually in the modern data driven world goals scored isn't actually a priority metric for most recruitment teams when identifying developing strikers.

16 May 2026 10:02:59
Not a priority, EHL, but under a certain age, scoring over 10 goals alerts some of the bigger teams around Europe could be why Porto and Benfica are being mentioned in regards to Chermiti now.

16 May 2026 10:06:34
20m Chermiti 15 Raskin. Let's do it.

16 May 2026 10:09:09
I can't get behind any rumour/link to Patterson. I get, as a club, we make horrendous decision making, but imagine going into a season with Sterling and Patterson as your two RBs, you may as well start every game with 10 men and save the wages on two less players in your squad.

16 May 2026 10:22:08
Honestly, MuscatIn, it wouldn't, and I'm not saying I agree with it BTW.

They'll be monitoring his XG stats more than anything else, as they are more interested in his ability to get into goal scoring positions than how many goals he scored.

It's a weird quirk of the modern game, but as bonkers as it sounds, but putting the ball in the back of the net has become a secondary consideration when scouting young strikers.



There's some good interviews with Matthew Benham, the Brentford owner, where he explains it.

If I remember, he picks out Beto at Everton as top striker because of how good his XG is, even though his goal return is terrible.

16 May 2026 10:29:05
Chermiti has had a very good season if u ask me.

I think he's a cracking player, he'll have some season next season if we can keep him one more season. I'd say right now his value is EUR20m.

I'd say Raskin is the same.

16 May 2026 10:31:53
If that's the case, considering how many chances he gets, his xg must be very high, which would push his value way up. 25m definitely isn't over the top.

16 May 2026 10:32:51
Ehl, so would Chermiti score well in data driven stats?

Might just be a fan's way of looking at it, but the eye test v data slot of fans would say he's terrible, but in xg per 90 he outperforms Shankland on

g/per90
Xg/per90
G/A/per 90.

16 May 2026 10:37:01
Yeah, that's why he's moved for big money already, MuscatIn, and why he's on a lot of clubs' radars.

16 May 2026 10:42:38
I wouldn't say uh e is terrible. He is young and learning his trade.

I think a lot more to come.
I would like to hold onto him.

Unless a stupid bid of over 20m comes in.

16 May 2026 10:47:21
Burt, How's Chermiti terrible, deary, dear man.

Hope that was Dan Neil, Drew.

16 May 2026 10:54:41
My star, I never said I think he's terrible. I said a lot of fans do or have, until the last few months. I like the big guy, just wish he would have had a Shankland to help him, but hindsight's a wonderful thing.

16 May 2026 10:58:10
Chermiti has every attribute to become a very good striker.
The truth is, the service to him has been shocking most of the season, and most of the time he's up there with nobody near him to help him out at times.

We have wide players who can't cross a ball, and midfielders who like to sit in behind the defence as a sweeper, near enough.



Give him better service and options on the park, he'll score more goals.

Never thought I'd say it, considering how he started the season, but he's actually a very good player.

16 May 2026 11:05:47
Sorry, Burt, never read it properly. Did now.

16 May 2026 11:06:26
Maybe after another season he could be that, but currently don't think he's anywhere near making us that. I hope I'm way wrong.

16 May 2026 11:25:34
No worries, My star, it's hard to get my exact point across in text form. 😅

16 May 2026 11:31:30
Sell before buying will be the plan.

16 May 2026 11:44:43
Muscat, your valuations are a bit of the top you do also know we wouldn't get all that money upfront either? We will not get 25 mill for Chermiti this summer, that's for sure.
We wouldn't get anywhere close to 70 for those.

16 May 2026 12:08:31
Like you, My star, I hope the midfielder that was getting shown around allegedly is Dan Neil. 🙏

16 May 2026 15:14:20
Think Chermiti definitely has potential & I often forget how young he is, but agree he's fallen victim in a similar way Dessers did, poor service from midfield & wingers. I feel most strikers could score goals for us if the service was spot on.

16 May 2026 17:28:04
Strom, you guys also told me last summer, I was talking nonsense and we would never spend 30m in a window or anywhere near 10m on a player and we done both things 😉 😉 😉 Have a little faith.

15 May 2026 19:51:00
Danny Rohl will leave by mutual consent at the end of the season.

Steven Gerrard is favourite to take the reigns back!

15 May 2026 20:00:41
I beg that's true. 😭

15 May 2026 20:06:00
Fingers crossed, Ayrshire.

15 May 2026 20:06:15
Gerrard going to Burnley. He's not an option.

15 May 2026 20:06:32
Gerrard would need a good tactical coach alongside him. Gerrard good front man, but footballing side of the game, I think he struggles.

15 May 2026 20:08:08
Ayrshire, a victory for Falkirk tomorrow, and AC is ready to pull the trigger.

Don't forget who was his no1 choice after RM.

Expect it to be fast tracked.

15 May 2026 20:10:20
Where are you getting this from, Ayrshire? Source of yours? Or are you hoping?

15 May 2026 20:12:39
Probably be Sean Dyche. 👀

15 May 2026 20:14:15
I've not seen one credible link saying Gerrard is going to Burnley btw, seen more saying Eustace to Burnley.

Could obviously be wrong, but not one credible outlet or journo is saying Gerrard to Burnley is on.

15 May 2026 20:19:58
Isn't SG going 2 the Championship with Burnley? But in football things can change in a heartbeat.

15 May 2026 20:22:46
That's good for you, Beef. We all hear and see different things. 👍👍

15 May 2026 20:23:39
we should have public flogging if not true Ayrshire 🤣🤣🤣

15 May 2026 20:38:50
Daniel Cousin Loyal, I'm sorry, but I just don't buy that. If we lose a dead rubber away to Falkirk tomorrow, that will tip AC over the edge, and he's going to sack Rohl. Not for me.

That would be a mad way to run the club. If I'm understanding your post correctly, that would mean the flip side is, if we beat Falkirk in a dead rubber, then he gets to keep his job!

15 May 2026 20:39:33
I honestly think I'd stop watching us if Gerard returned.

So the Mrs would be happy the DIY list would get some attention.

15 May 2026 20:46:14
Ayrshire, sorry to doubt you, mate, nothing personal and just my opinion but I'm absolutely convinced Andrew Cavanagh likes and rates Danny Rohl and will give him time to build his own Rangers team. 🤔 Rohl is liked within our board. 🤔 However, I do think changes are coming within his backroom team and coaches within our academy. 🤔

15 May 2026 20:46:27
Keep posting but it's not showing? I think a lot is going to happen tomorrow,
Good bye DR. and a few players.

15 May 2026 20:47:05
Much prefer John Eustace to Steven Gerrard.

15 May 2026 20:50:12
Please not Gerrard.

15 May 2026 21:03:00
Would welcome SG back and say a big cherio to DR. Let's face it, SG is the only manager to win us a title, you can't get away from that. I'm not convinced SG is even in the frame but would welcome him back with open arms, he raised every standard at our club.

EHL, why the big no?

15 May 2026 21:04:16
Really don't want Gerrard. Think we need experienced man. A Bielsa, Wilder, someone that's been down road with a few teams.

15 May 2026 21:18:19
What we need to remember is that he's held 4 rounds of talks with Burnley, he did that with AC and PM and still walked away from us. Think we need to look forward if DR leaves or is told to leave, not backwards.

15 May 2026 21:18:27
Der Hammer, 5 split games, 5 defeats.

Circa £17m spent in January.

6 wins in 16/17 games against the top 6.


Tomorrow isn't the reason, it's the final nail.

15 May 2026 21:20:07
Jesus, is this last summer again. I can't go through all the Gerrard rumours again.

15 May 2026 21:25:19
His position is to be reviewed this summer.

A win means it will be reviewed, a defeat means it will be fast tracked.

15 May 2026 21:26:30
Wonderful first post at one of the most respected posters on here, what a numpty.

15 May 2026 21:28:17
I'm deciding to trust A Cav & board, we need a statesman like headliner leading us forward, If that's Gerrard so be it. 🥰😍

15 May 2026 21:30:18
SG is the only recent manager with the gravitas to keep the press crowd quiet, the pundits on their toes, get the best out of players, challenge everyone. He is a winner, and we need a winner's mentality back to Rangers. He brought that back and that has slipped back.

15 May 2026 21:31:15
Lol, u took the post away, was answering 001. 😉👍

15 May 2026 22:16:56
Beef, Alan Nixon, who's pretty accurate with his English reporting, not so much Scottish reporting, has confirmed Gerrard has held multiple talks with Burnley. Keith Wyness also mentioned he is Burnley's favourite but not the only option.

Burnley have massive plans to finally establish themselves as a Premier League club and believe Gerrard could kickstart that journey.

15 May 2026 22:24:49
Rohl may stay or may go.

I've had a shoe in last two times Gerrard was wanted and he decided not to take up the offer.

I haven't heard anything this time around, and he may well be AC first choice, but I don't think he will take it this time either.


Burnley look to be offering him the terms he wants, and it could be the stepping stone he needs and wants.
Look how it worked out for Vincent Kompany.

15 May 2026 22:35:21
EHL, what's your reasoning for not liking Gerrard? Is it anything personal from when you worked together? As he's the last manager to win us a title, I don't get the dislike for the only manager to win the league since Walter.

15 May 2026 22:46:22
Wishy, there's plenty reasons, but the main one is he simply isn't good enough and wouldn't change anything. But, you know, I'd like us to get Gerrard back and buy Scottish born Rangers supporters and continue to win absolutely hee haw. It would mean we could put this mad notion behind us.

15 May 2026 23:11:33
Gerrard definitely wouldn't be my first choice as manager.

I 💯 think a change is needed, as Rohl is simply not working, and honestly, I can't go into next season knowing full well he's going to get sacked and it's another pathetic season on the cards.

Be that, Gerrard I'm unsure, but no doubt the links to him will continue.

15 May 2026 23:21:39
Would love to see Stevie back tbh.

15 May 2026 23:46:11
Bee82, was going to say exact same.

Gerrard / Muscat / McInnes, that's all we're going to hear.

We're stuck in an infinite loop of pain. Same potential managers / players thrown up all the time.

15 May 2026 23:52:25
Not Gerrard, not Muscat, not McInnes, and definitely not Ferguson. If Rohl goes, it needs to be a proper, proven manager, not an old boys appointment.

16 May 2026 04:06:25
Want Rohl gone. But we did not spend 17 million in Jan. Let's not just make figures up.

16 May 2026 06:19:22
Ok, who would your choice be, Trd? 🤔

16 May 2026 06:40:07
At least Rohl is away, that's the main thing. 4 defeats in a row, possibly 5, is sacking material.
You should never be rewarded for absolute failure, which is how this season ended.

It's heartbreaking stuff. However, another new manager is required. There's many good managers out there. Oneil came into a team playing awful and completely turned it around.
So it can be done.

16 May 2026 07:17:37
Peter Pan loyal

£3.5m for Rommens
£5m on Naderi
£4.5m on Chukwuani
£2.5m loan fee for Skov Olsen

We definitely spent minimum £15m.

16 May 2026 07:24:32
Wishy, I wasn't at the club when Gerard was there, I joined under Clement.

So it's nothing personal.

Just feels like another example of the desperate short term decision making that's crippled us for over a decade.

16 May 2026 07:54:56
EHL, so if SG were appointed and you unfollowed us, then we went on to win the league next season, you wouldn't be back following on? You do know we won the league weeks before the end of the season, so where is it written that he couldn't do that again? imo there was a big problem with Thelwell and Stewart before.

This issue has been removed. Is he not worth a chance, given he has won it before?

16 May 2026 08:11:19
How's about the Kilmarnock manager? And that lad Curtis, well worth a look inall, is he no? Some daftie sent him out on loan and persisted with non triers non scorers and wasters.

Sterling can't play on plastic, so will the superstar Aarons play v Falkirk, you know thinking long term. Like till Monday?

16 May 2026 08:12:25
Seeker, I think you missed the flipancy in my throwaway comment.

I assumed it'd be obvious that I'd be back once I'd made a mess of the first DIY task.

It's not written that we couldn't do it again - but it's my opinion that we wouldn't.

16 May 2026 08:14:32
Honestly, SWS, I'd go for Dyche at the moment. It might not be pretty, but think he'd do the job. There may be others on the continent, but not that clued up.

We'd all love silky high scoring football, but that's not a priority.

Hate to say it, but when you look at what Mon has done, they win games and tight games too. We need that.

16 May 2026 08:29:51
We need to be hard to play against first and foremost, it's how titles are won.

My choices would be:

McInnes. Knows the league, has done well on budgets way under what he would get here and is a Rangers man, also isn't afraid to call out the refs.


Muscat. Fast, attractive football. Has won titles in a couple of countries.

Knows the club and expectations.


Robinson. Knows the league, gets his teams hard to beat & well organised, won a cup with St Mirren, is a Rangers man and knows what the league requires.

We need managers/head coaches who know the game here and know what is required at a club like ours, no more project Championship super coaches.

16 May 2026 08:45:14
Ehl, fair enough. 👌

16 May 2026 09:31:16
Ehl, your knowledge of coaching, tactics, analysis, sport science, fitness training etc are unsurpassed on this site.

I would say, with all the courses, exams and training you have done, and I, like many others, really value your opinions on these matters.

The one subject I would say, all your knowledge does not come into play, is who constitutes a good choice of Manager/Head Coach at Rangers.

At the time of Rohl's appointment you loved the idea of him getting the job instead of Gerrard, which you based on their respective coaching abilities, which would be a fair point in isolation.

However, a lot of fans like me of an older generation grew up with great Managers like Bill Nicholson at Spurs, Shankly, Busby, Clough, Paisley, Ferguson and at Rangers Souness, Smith.



They all had an authority and presence about them that gave fans and players alike a belief in them. They were all figureheads, leaders, motivators, man managers, etc.

While you championed Rohl as a highly regarded up and coming coach Ehl, I would contend he is so lacking in the personal qualities that the great Managers of the past had.

In short, he is unsuited for the Rangers job, as he lacks so many personal qualities, and so far he has often been found wanting tactically in both SPL and in Europe.

Can I ask Ehl, do you think he should be given another season, and if so, what be your reasons?

16 May 2026 09:44:25
Gd post n gd question, be nice to hear your take, Ehl, as you have probably more insight than most bud. 👍

16 May 2026 10:09:32
Once a Ranger, yes.

In recent years I'd say the following.

GVB & PC, sacked far too soon in reaction to off field pressure, as both were experiencing short term pain with a view to long term gain.

MB should never have been appointed, and every minute he was at the club set us back.

BF & SG both great leaders, but both so driven by the need to win that they leave a trail of collateral damage that we aren't in a position to sustain.

Look how quickly Villa pulled the plug on SG and how quickly UE recovered - Villa could see what was happening and knew they needed to act quickly.

DR, I'd bracket with GVB and PC, although I would say PC has a considerable edge in terms of experience. Given time, these guys can build the foundations that we need to be successful in the modern game. Will that automatically translate to on pitch success? Probably not.

16 May 2026 10:28:26
Well explained Ehl. 👍

16 May 2026 10:51:41
Tjbb, on the manager front, he is not a winner. Failed at last two clubs. No one else has shown until last month or so any interest.
Effectively still unemployed.

Covid title against a poor Celtic side who never strengthened.


How many years to win title?

Not my idea of a winner.

If I was to put his manager credentials in front of you, without the name. Would you honestly say that's the guy for us?

16 May 2026 11:01:03
Good post Ehl.

16 May 2026 11:16:49
Gerard's not for me either. He's a figurehead manager. I want to see a manager at Ibrox whose team plays with intensity, pace and guile. I know it won't happen overnight, but we need stability, continuity and consistency.

16 May 2026 11:37:58
Let's enjoy this final crucial cup final from our 45 minute team. Will Dans 2 big signings get on the park today? Will the Falkirk left winger rip us a new one, absolute shambles and becoming even worse than the Martin, Thelwell and the wee alien CEO time.

I feel sorry for real triers like Barron, Moore, Rommens having to play with these assorted chancers.

16 May 2026 20:44:31
You speak a lot of sense, to be fair to you, Ehl, always good to read your insight on things. I loved Gio and wish he got more time, and more of a say on transfer targets. It was shameful the players he was given after that Euro final he took us to.
