The guy on course for an undefeated season with a record low goals against for a British domestic season?

His cup record isnt good enough for Rangers* budget and the state Celtic have been in this year, but saying his domestic record is "fucking appalling" is an absolutely wild take.

The only thing Lennon pisses over is his own bed sheets. The guy won a watch both times he was made manager and crumbled any time there was a team capable of pushing his.

For a Rangers manager to win one trophy out of a possible nine is fucking appalling, no matter how you try to dress it up. Winning the league this season saved his job actually.

i think Covid may have saved his job. There seemed to be a feeling of injustice regarding the decision around last years title from those at Ibrox and that feeling afforded him another season imo. 

Turned out to be a good decision for them

It really isn’t that bad when you consider the circumstances . From next season onwards that return will certainly lead to much more warranted criticism . 
 

Gerrards 3 year goal was to win the league . He has achieved it . I don’t know why you’s are so upset by this .

To compare Lennon’s record at Celtic to Gerrard is not a fair comparison.

Lennon inherited winners and proceeded to turn the club into a basket case.

Gerrard inherited a basket case and turned them into winners. Completely different.

It's not Lennon has won 10 trophies slippy G has won 1.

Sir Alex Ferguson’s job was also saved by winning league titles.

Some laugh if we go onto win 10 in a row Without one solitary domestic cup.

It would be even funnier if Celtic won 16 out of the 20 domestic cup competitions over that 10 years to go onto 127 trophies to Rangers 126 * 

(*10 as The Rangers)

It doesn't, well if you got 10iar it obviously would however the cumulative total means nothing to me

However it bothers Rangers fans, they are very proud of said trophy count hence it would be funny to take that away from them

You’re talking nonsense. Gerrard arrived during a period where Celtic were dominating and were lightyears ahead of Celtic.

He has improved us year on year and that gap has been eaten away in each of the 3 seasons Gerrard has been in charge to the point we’ve now surpassed Celtic.

As folk have said, 1 trophy from 9 would be poor under normal circumstances, but Gerrard did not arrive during normal circumstances. The board recognised the improvements he was making, stuck by him and we’ve now been rewarded while Celtic have been embarrassed.

Football is fickle though, if Rangers lose some of their key men over the Summer, drop the ball to Celtic and continue to not give a f**k about domestic cups then i'm pretty sure that good feeling and icon status he currently has will be on a shoogly peg

But you are all claiming that 1 trophy out of 9 is terrible. If it was so terrible, why is Gerrard idolised?

Yes, I imagine he'd have walked/got the bullet if he hadnt won the league this year. 

But he has won it though. At a fucking canter.  

So his domestic record isnt "fucking appalling", is it?

Saying Gerrard only kept his job because he won the league is like saying Messi doesnt get dropped because he scores every game.

Whether you like it or not, Gerrard has come in and done what was asked of him. I'm sure Rangers* fans would happily have been papped out of both cups the last three years if it meant they win the league this year and stop 10IAR. Which they have done. And I'm sure better domestic cup performances/results will be a main target to judge him on next year now the monkey is off their back.

Because he was the man in charge when Rangers stopped Celtic doing the 10 and done so without loosing a league game....so far. 

And i'm not sure who is saying Gerrard is terrible, he quite clearly isn't however he hasn't been as successful as he could have been and there have been opportunities missed to really establish Rangers as the dominant team in Scotland and he has been a tad fortunate that his tenure coincided with a Celtic team at their lowest ebb since around 1998/99. We have been truly fucking shocking but that has nothing to do with Gerrard and everything to do with our own mismanagement, complacency and arrogance towards the challenge Rangers would bring. 

But 1 final in 3 seasons despite the rebuild and with the significant finance advantage Rangers have over the other clubs except Celtic and bearing in mind you did reach a Scottish Cup final while in the Championship is a poor return. 

I get the league being the biggest priority i really do however Rangers have to address this piss poor run in the cups.

And next season he has the chance to address the cup record . 

just like he addressed our league consistency issue over this season I will place my confidence in him to try and work a way for us to deliver cups .

If we lose key players and can't replace them then thats hardly Gerrards fault. League first, then Europe and anything else is a wee bonus. 

 

We have manager who had us playing enjoyable football against European teams this season,  not sitting in and parking the bus but actually taking the game to them.

I'll stick with Gerrard.
