I don't think anyone would grudge Gerrard a move to the EPL, well, anyone that can think logically, it's more the timing that is leaving a bit of a sour taste in people's mouths. The timing is horrendous considering the precarious Europa League position and the really tough run of fixtures coming. At least when Rodgers jumped we had a trophy in the bag and the title was pretty much done. His comments the other week about being settled and happy will live in the memory for a long time but “Slippy G” does has a habit of making the odd comment that makes him look a little foolish. Either way I’m delighted and not because I rate Gerrard to any degree but the fact this really unsettles Rangers, unsettles the players and presents us with an opportunity to apply some additional pressure if we can keep winning.

I'll not lie, I don't think Queenie popping her clogs would do anything but bolster the loyalist cause. The country would be thrown into a state of mourning where any dissenting voice would immediately be berated for a lack of patriotism. I'd much rather her continuing to live as a perfect juxtapose of unfettered privilege and wealth, compared to the citizens of "her realm". Anyway, in terms of Gerrard, he was with them for 3 and a bit years, for any manager that's a decent shift. Not the longest, but in the context of the modern game? Not bad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said as much regarding the timing, it’s not great at all. The Europa League group though all depends how you look at it. We have the chance to seal second place in the next match day with a game to spare if we beat Sparta by 2 clear goals. Not an easy task given how we’ve been performing but I would’ve taken that all day long when the groups were drawn. Similarly, the Rodgers comparison is entirely how you view it. Gerrard had pretty much fulfilled what was expected of him by winning the title. Rodgers, on the other hand, was here for 10IAR but left early. Not many would’ve grudged Gerrard leaving in the summer. The timing now is a lot worse, but I don’t think he will receive anywhere near the same type of animosity Rodgers did. The rest I agree with. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No mention of an interim manager but our statement thanks “Steven and his team” and wishes “them” success, so I took it to mean they were all away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yer I’ve seen the three of them mentioned by bloggers and people close to the club. Jimmy Bell to beat Hibs and Saints in the final. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Kinnear Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Ross Wilson is said to be quite proficient in forward planning and ensuring continuity at clubs so I guess it's where we will see if he is worth the money or not. An ex Rangers player (e.g. Van Bronckhorst) should only be appointed if he believes they are a credible managerial candidate even when putting aside any ties to the club. Ross will do the team he’s supported all his life a wee turn here and take Sheerin off our hands. Make it happen Ross, you know it makes sense [emoji1317] 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
