Guest Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Winning the league and failing to get anywhere near any cups with massive overspending or cup double with massive underdogs with minimal spending. Not even a comparison Davidson should have it hands down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAD Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Davidson is 100% the manager of the year. What he's achieved with a team the size of St Johnstone won't be matched in our lifetime again. It's a complete joke Gerrard got it over him. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Undefeated, defensive records set over the course of an entire campaign, carrying Scottish football on our back in Europe. Taking nothing away from Callum Davidson, outstanding achievement and it's good to see. St Johnstone 2 titles, Rangers 1. Simples. Also the fact they’ve probs got a bottom 6 budget the achievement is on of the biggest in Scottish history never mind today. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grangemouth Bairn Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Callum Davidson is clearly the manager of the year and we can all see that. Surely the timing of the awards needs to be reviewed immediately and changed from next season. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye the achievement is good relativley speaking but Rangers have performed better over the course of a season, including topping our group in Europe. If Rangers had snuck the league by a game or two it would've probably went to Davidson. -8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

castilla Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Gerrard deserved to win. No doubt. Under massive pressure. Won the league out the park. Excellent season for Davidson. Wouldn't bet against him winning it in future. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiviLion Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Winning a league you're expected to challenge for, outspending just about everyone in the process. Doing it unbeaten is a good achievement. Winning two major trophies you're not expected to get close to, with a budget much less than what, 7 teams or so? Davidson should have won it, but shouldn't surprise anyone that Gerrard got it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Why do they award if before the end of the season? Unless it’s only voted on league performance? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahemps Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 St Johnstone were probably 20-1 for each cup so a double is around 40-1, Rangers were just above evens for the league. £1 on St Johnstone gets you £400 back, £1 on Rangers gets you £2.20. One is a monumental achievement the other one is routine and expected. If Rangers got to the Europa League final to play Man Utd the Rangers fans would say it was a bigger achievement by their manager but they are not objective enough to see it when it is the other way round. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers are expected to challenge on all fronts and operating on a higher budget than St Johnstone even when in the bottom tier. St Johnstone to win a cup double in a single season is easily up there and tbh probably surpasses what Rangers have done imo You are looking at this through a very very biased lens Edited May 22, 2021 by Jinky67 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure the awards are organised early as the players have little interest in attending an event after the end of the season. That's not to say they couldn't have done that this season though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Historically it was because they had an awards night bash. If it was at the end of the season everybody would be off on holiday 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming St Johnstone were 20/1 for both cups, a £1 double at the start of the season would have got you £400 (£20 from the first cup then means you've got £20 on again at 20/1 = £400).* And getting £2.20 back from £1 on Rangers winning the league would suggest they were 6/5. Which is "just above evens". *Actually a bit off, obviously get the stake back so you end up with £440.
