We're 4 games played in the league, and in the Group stages of the Europa League, and still we get these stories about SG, he's going nowhere, he loves his job, and nobody is getting sacked, especially him.



07 Sep 2019 11:16:16
Couldn’t believe this nonsense irvger, I think most fans share your opinion wholeheartedly. 👍🏼.



08 Sep 2019 16:00:56
I don’t think club will sack him (probably couldn’t afford to) but he will have to win something this season are the pressure will build on him. And complete **** ups like last Sunday will increase it even more on him. There was people on here a few weeks back celebrating before the season even started because Lennon was the Celtic manager like him are loath him he’ll do well at Celtic and it will be tough to finish above especially after tactics formations and performances like last Sunday.



08 Sep 2019 20:22:00
For those saying Gerard isn't going anywhere, he might not have a choice. As much as I've tried, I still haven't forgiven him for that absolute shambles of last Sunday. I thought the days of celtic winning OF games without breaking sweat were over, but nope. Time will tell if he's man enough to admit he made a massive massive mistake and we never see that ****ed up formation ever again. Celtic aren't anything like they've been under Rodgers, but we made them look good last Sunday and that is unforgivable. Mistake or no mistake, it was an OF game, and you should never use these games to try and experiment. He tried it last season v motherwell and we dropped 2 points, this time we dropped all 3.



09 Sep 2019 00:24:56
shambles of a nonsense of a drivel. media at its lowest gossip mongering.



09 Sep 2019 15:35:16
Ok hefukked up but look at the bigger picture we are much better than the last 10years . he brings players to us other past managers could only dream of forget the neg vibes and back him to the hilt he will bring silverware 55 striker in January all we need.



09 Sep 2019 18:19:23
I couldn’t disagree with you more! What players has he brought in that other managers couldn’t? Every player he brought in this summer have yet to prove themselves. And the better than the last 10 years is complete nonsense we had a far better team than now right up to 2012.



06 Sep 2019 12:20:16
Daily mirror and daily record saying how Gerrard could be sacked. omg, sacking him would be the worst move Rangers could do we actually have a decent team thanks to Gerrard do we want to go back to Pedro days these news articles need to shut down they desperately want to hurt Rangers in any shape n form there's no way Gerrard should go after one mistake last sunday.



06 Sep 2019 13:49:16
Although I have nothing but respect fro SG, if he doesn’t win the league this year then he should be moved on. That’s the worst Celtic team I’ve seen in a long time and they comfortably rolled us over 2 nil. The only person to blame there is SG. If he can’t beat this Celtic team to the league then he never will.



06 Sep 2019 14:01:54
Absolutely rubbish, win or lose gerrard must stay. We can’t start again with new managwr to try stop ten.
As painful as it is it it happens it happens.
Remember most of Scottish football wanted us dead.
When we win it we shall rub it into each and every one off them.



06 Sep 2019 14:07:12
Reign it in zikos . everyone makes and has a right to make mistakes. definitely scores it’s a different game . even Rodgers made mistakes.



06 Sep 2019 14:28:40
Find a manager better than Gerrard then we will talk. We don't have the money to bring in players. Most of the players signed have been because of Gerrard and European football that's a fact.



06 Sep 2019 14:40:48
If it's in the Daily Record, it's likely to be complete b****cks. Reactionary much?



06 Sep 2019 14:41:04
Well said callam.



06 Sep 2019 15:39:14
I am 100% behind our gaffer Mr Gerrard ✊🇬🇧.



06 Sep 2019 15:56:09
Why do people keep reading that rag of a paper
It has continually been proven to lie about us
STOP READING THE DAILY REBEL.



06 Sep 2019 17:02:16
I’m not particularly interested in stopping 10 in a row, and could understand the sentiment if that was a Martin O’Neil Celtic team we played against. It wasn’t! It wasn’t even a Ronny Deila celtic team, and we still got rolled over. SG got everything wrong at the weekend and he will not and should not be allowed to continue to do that. I don’t care who he is, it’s not acceptable! He needs to improve it he won’t be here and He’ll never get the chance to manage his beloved Liverpool.



06 Sep 2019 17:50:18
Hey Zikos SG has just got us through into Europe for the second year running not bad going for a young manager with his first club and a low budget (compared to Pacific shelf) also some amount of players coming in and out the door I for one will give him time let’s go 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧.



06 Sep 2019 19:04:57
Steven Gerrard without question stays as our manager for me. We just can't go round changing manager's continually, when certain things go against us. I'm afraid that's just football and for me gerrard has done a very good job, thus far. Remember he's a very young manager, who of course will make mistakes. I think we will win something this season and we have a very good chance of winning the league. If we don't we assess everything at the end of the season, but for me gerrard still stays as our manager, even if we don't win the league.



06 Sep 2019 19:16:46
We wouldn’t be able to sign any of the good players we have over the last 3 windows without Gerrard being our manager. Aribo, Kent, Defoe
Keep him as long as possible.



06 Sep 2019 20:12:34
Absolute nonsense we wouldn’t be able to sign those players without Gerrard. We signed Bruno Alves who just won the Euros when Pedro arrived. Players above anything move for the money. Don’t be so nieve.

I’m happy enough to give gerrard more time but if at the end of the season we have nothing to show but a league cup then the season has been a major failure. I’m not interested in Celtic’s budget tbh, regardless of that it’s the worst team they have put together for 10 years and we couldn’t get a result. What does that say about us?

He needs to go on a good run and hope Celtic drop points before the next old firm match. If they don’t and we do, and we lose the next old firm match then most people on here will want him gone.

His future is in his and his players hands so hopefully they get the results he needs and we all want.



06 Sep 2019 20:31:30
I'll be honest I think we'll win the league this season.



06 Sep 2019 20:43:36
Sound's like you are in a very small minority on here @zikos👍.



06 Sep 2019 20:45:04
There is no way we would have signed Defoe Kent or Aribo without SG don’t talk nonsense the players themselves have said that Jesus we have lost one game of football and you want the manager sacked get a grip you have got to be at the wind up 🎣.



06 Sep 2019 21:13:10
Omg I can't believe some fans want rid of the manager. After some of the failures we've had over the years? Good grief!



06 Sep 2019 21:26:42
I don’t want SG to get sacked, far from it. I want him to win games and to be successful. But If we fall further behind Celtic on the run up to the next old firm match then his coat will be on a shoogly nail and if he was to lose that match then yes I think he should go. And I gaurentee I won’t be in the minority.

That said, it’s all ifs and buts and I personally hope it never transpires.



06 Sep 2019 21:37:55
No one was more disgusted with mr gerrards tactics or team selection on Sunday than myself and that’s the 1st pop at him that I’ve had but to say he will be sacked? get a grip.



06 Sep 2019 22:30:09
Zikos honestly mate get a grip. If steven gerrard wins any trophy its an improvement, whether as you put it, just the league cup or not!



06 Sep 2019 22:32:16
Those that want gerrard sacked u don't have a clue about football. he's turned our club around, he's the only manager to get a britiish club through all 4 europa league qualifiers n he's done it 2 times now. he's got 2 defeats in 24 european games got us actually challenging celtic for leagues competing in oldfirm games were actuslly expected to win these games aswell when was the last time we could say thst? he's attracting big names shirt sales are up, season ticket sales are up he's making us money. The board are investing heavily in the squad he's going nowhere even if we don't win the league.



06 Sep 2019 17:46:22
I'm behind SG however I do agree with some of what zikos is saying. Put Europe to the side he hasn't achieved much for us domestically. Last season apart from 2 old firm wins and a good away win against the sheep he struggled tactically against the teams that put men behind the ball and had no plan B. I actually think he got lucky when Morelos got suspended and we had to play Defoe and change our shape which freshened it up and took teams by surprise.

I was hoping this year we would have brought in the big target man for such games, whilst yes we won against Killie and St Mirren we did struggle as it seemed we played the same way but tried to do it better. sounds familiar.
For me he has to the end of the season. If we are 9 points behind with nothing changed in regards to learning how to break teams down ( how much time does he need to learn ) or getting out thought against Celtic then I think he has to go.



06 Sep 2019 22:46:35
Gerrard played the same tactics on sunday as he did in the first old firm game at celtic last season, did he not learn from that? The other old firm games last season he had a go at them and we were by far better so why didn't he do that on sunday? Its ok to say he made a mistake but how many mistakes will cost us before he learns? The frustrating part is that he already knew how to play them but for some reason chose to do the opposite. 👍.



06 Sep 2019 23:43:55
Hindsight is a wonderful thing . Defoe’s shot goes in it’s a different game. Arebo list against brown but he won some of the challenges . just not enough to win the battle. Stevie will come back from this no problem .



07 Sep 2019 09:44:04
What Defoe shot? as far as I can remember el Ahmed made sure that defoe never got a sniff, u counting runs in the box as shots on target now? If ntcham or jullien put it to either side it could have been 4.



07 Sep 2019 10:19:32
SG is still on a learning curve so will make mistakes. But, we are damn lucky to have him, and he won't be sacked. he would leave if results got that bad.
Most of the good players that came here was because he is there. Lennon couldn't entice them, so he has to splash cash (occasionally)



07 Sep 2019 14:40:27
SG is no different to any other manager in world football. I love him and think he's doing a great job but as a football manager if he isn't winning trophies he will get sacked. I personally think that would be bigger mistake than selling club to craig white. He has made 1 big error and that was last week. Not bad for the experience he has.



07 Sep 2019 15:54:29
FAKE NEWS. CLICK BAIT.



07 Sep 2019 20:18:51
Lads whether or not the story has legs. In any other era at Rangers the manager will com under pressure if he goes 2 years without a trophy and would definitely not last more than 3. I suspect SG knows and understands this. Rangers will only have truly recovered when we are regularly winning trophies.

Anything else is second best and if we are not careful we will sleep walk into accepting this as acceptable. We are getting better every year but need the team to be populated with winners like it used to be. I think this is what’s missing. Like it or not we would love to have Scott Brown in the middle of our midfield as he like Ian Ferguson, Stuart McCall, John Brown, Gough and Souness does what ever it takes to win.



07 Sep 2019 20:24:13
Stevie never won the league as a player but did well in the cups and of course Europe. He won’t be sacked. He has got us into the europa league 2 years running and that’s means cash. So total nonsense. As he said 4 point better off than last year so far, but tactics were crap last week.

I said it last year though, the league gets you nothing in this climate but 4 qualifying rounds and stevie played in a league were teams won champions league trophies without winning leagues. Forget 9 in a row we weren’t here for 5 of them. Let’s stop a quadruple treble and a good run in Europe. If we win the league great. Please don’t shoot me down, just my thoughts. 😳.



08 Sep 2019 12:23:53
@Zikos

Can se what your saying - we need to win games and apart from the old firm we have done that and looked impressive up until the old firm where I think players and the manager himself bottled it and I’m not sure why
He needs to be stronger in believing in his players he has brought in especially Helander and Edmundson
Yeah I think they 2 should be give a good chance to play Flanagan is not rangers class
And Arfield should never have started either (sorry) but his legs don’t have it in them to keep up with a high tempo game
Goldson was awfull too
He needs to be bold and play the team we know that will or would have had a real chance of doing them over and they all bottled it hopefully it won’t be repeated next time around
Morelos should be starting also
And agree we need to win this league this year we definitely have the team to do it I think.



08 Sep 2019 18:16:16
Thanks all, doesn’t really feel like I’m in a minority here as previously mentioned. Think most fans hate losing to Celtic in that manner as much as I do and will not tolerate it regardless of what poster boy is at the helm.



08 Sep 2019 20:21:01
The fact we are even debating wether Gerrard should be sacked is a complete joke. In 2 years he has made us a European team again and 2nd in scotland well it took him a year really. Yes mistakes were made in the old firm but to put it all on Gerrard? come on! yes there was no wingers but 9 out of 11 of our team didn't turn up! that isn't Gerrards fault it is there's! your all falling into liewells press hands if you actually beleive there is a chance he will be sacked 😂 a minor blip in what has been a great start too the year. To get past mitdjyland and warsaw i was shocked after all motdjyland beat man u and warsaw are a tough tough side. Gerrard broke the old firm curse for us also never forget that!



09 Sep 2019 09:43:49
Kirkcaldyloyal

No where in my post did I mention Gerrard getting sacked far from it
We have been impressive up until old firm game I’m only saying we should not be bottling games against Celtic and stick to what has been working and not changing just for playing Celtic
But we also need to win the league and I believe we have the management and team to do it this year
Just need the same high level of performance in every game that we have seen up until Celtic game!

Don’t think for a minute Gerrard needs sacked the guy is class and working with a small budget really and in the Scottish league unfortunately we’re not going to be able to attract and able to afford top players
But we have a good enough team to win this league absolutely!
