Cavanagh confirms Rohl stays, and no project players to be brought in.

Indeed interesting Tavs dinner does not include Rohl.



17 May 2026 13:26:57
Well they better back him with some real quality.



17 May 2026 13:31:36
Big t. He seems to indicate that. I only assume Rohl has stated he is all in with Cavanagh's plan. Cavanagh says we will see leadership and experience brought in.

Now we get on with it.



17 May 2026 13:33:48
At last. We have our own, developed by us project players. This constant talking about buying and selling needs to stop. We were supposedly selling one a year, whilst a developer was ready to step in. 🀷🏼



17 May 2026 13:33:53
John, what about project managers?



17 May 2026 13:34:44
Tavernier has been a great player and a great servant, but this is embarrassing. Not Rangers class.



17 May 2026 13:43:30
Rohl was never going anywhere.

Next season prep well underway, expect movement early.

My own personal opinion, I have my reasons, but I've been looking forward to the day Tav is no longer our club captain.

A few others will be moved on, which will help feeling around the squad and mentality.



I know some might be disappointed we are staying with Rohl, but this summer there will be real changes. Big AC and his staff see what's going on.

This isn't another rinse and repeat.

Be optimistic, Bears, I genuinely mean that.



17 May 2026 13:44:17
John, the reason Rohl is not there is because he's at home with his family apparently.



17 May 2026 13:45:39
We know how this ends.

Bad start, blames it on new players adjusting.
Fans completely turn.
After the loss to Celtic.

Linked to Gerrard.
Then hire someone else when it becomes a nightmare for Rohl.

Hope I'm wrong, will happily admit if I am.
But that's my guess for next season.

Hate being negative, but I just can't see how this works well.



17 May 2026 13:56:42
Alex, hear you, that's why I'm waiting to see in and out.



17 May 2026 14:03:47
Baxter met with Cavanagh last night for dinner and is allegedly flying out today.



17 May 2026 14:16:58
Folks,

We don't have a crystal ball. I have no idea what's going to happen.

Can we please stay in the present and get behind the club and everyone involved.

Rohl is here to stay for now.

It would be madness to go into next season before a ball is even kicked, asking for his and players' heads.

I have to support them.

I'm excited to see what next year brings!

Mon the Rangers. πŸ’™



17 May 2026 14:22:35
Our projects should be our youth, there's no reason why 2/3 youngsters in each matchday squad. If we give Sally 10+ appearances minimum, it looks good for buying clubs in an 18 year old has 30-40 first team apps.



17 May 2026 14:28:13
I actually wanted Rohl to stay for next season and in previous posts, I had stuck by him and explained why: needs a full season, his own summer window, a full pre season etc. But the rumour about Rohl being told to stay away from the dinner, Gassama celebration favouring Tav. It does look like a divide, doesn't it? However, my controversial opinion is that I actually think Tav and Raskin have been the problem within the squad.

Let me be clear, I feel sorry for the way it ended, course, but I think it's blatantly obvious that they two have been the cause of splits in Rangers for a while. Raskin is one I can't wait to see the back of.



17 May 2026 14:36:25
Great post, Gazza_8_78! Now that AC has put things to bed, I'd much rather start to see rumours on players coming in the summer.

Would love to see a 'current state' of transfer rumours from Aphe, EHL et al. I know that some names can't be named, but any current info would be great.

It will be a moving target, but would be great to see where we all think things stand.

I need some positivity to keep me going (if indeed there is any good news!).



17 May 2026 14:39:52
Spot on, Burt, three that came on yesterday looked the part, be another few anyway.



17 May 2026 14:46:20
Wullie83, yes good post mate. I agree with it completely, mate.



17 May 2026 15:03:35
John, I don't mean to be disrespectful but Cavenagh isn't going to tell you DR is going to be sacked. Maybe another manager isn't too far away.



17 May 2026 15:13:40
Baxter, and how would that look for him if he did that. Fans would never be able to trust anything he says. Try just to accept he is here for next season, and try to support the team. I am just glad he has come out really early and made the statement.

Now we can stop all the back and forth on here about it.
Meantime, I look forward to us being linked with such football talent as Simon Murray and Gogic again. πŸ‘



17 May 2026 15:14:33
In Rohl's We Trust. πŸ”΄βšͺοΈπŸ”΅



17 May 2026 15:23:03
Lads, you can back the manger and that's absolutely fine. I'll back my team all day long, but I don't see Rohl working.
I can't emphasise enough how much I hope I'm wrong, and who knows, maybe I'm just so scunnerd of years of watching us fail over and over again.



AC has stated they want leaders, ect.
Well, the proof is in the pudding, as they say, until we see it then it's just birthday card patter.



17 May 2026 15:24:27
Baxter agreed, however, from day one Cavanagh has stated Rohl would see out his contract.

The issue for me was: did Rohl want to stay?


As Angus says, if he sacks him before the season starts, he looks stupid, imo he certainly is not stupid.

I agree re early statement is good.



17 May 2026 15:34:16
Cool John, thanks for your information, much appreciated. Regarding Angus, I don't read his posts.



17 May 2026 15:36:52
I would love Gogic. 100% every time. He could be our new Balogun. Bring him on at 80 mins when games are tight and he would fly into anything. My kind of player.



17 May 2026 15:40:13
The English Championship and League One are finished why haven't we signed anyone yet?

TF2 ✉ 9 💬 78


17 May 2026 15:57:49
Absolutely gutted with this news. Never wanted Rohl, said he'd be another Martin and he is. His record speaks for itself. I got behind him this season despite not wanting him. Absolutely gutting we're willing to write off next season already, as we all know he's lost enough fans, that first wobble they'll be on his back. Sacked before Christmas. Guarantee it.



17 May 2026 15:58:04
Jking, I'm 100% with you. I'm sick to death with us signing player that don't have heart for the fight.



17 May 2026 16:01:47
John, that isn't what I said, though. I was pointing out he was unlikely to back him so publicly, whilst having plans to sack him. If he later went against his public proclamation, then I, for one, would never know when to trust anything he said in future.



17 May 2026 16:09:17
Let's now, as one big family, get right behind our head coach Danny Rohl and his new Rangers team from the very start next season and do what we signed up to do from birth. Support. πŸ₯Š



17 May 2026 16:17:41
Right decision for me. Needs a pre season and full transfer window. Hopefully, the board are changing what needs done behind the scenes also.

I like what AC said, however, exactly what we have been saying on here. Need players with the right mentality to be winners.



17 May 2026 16:22:53
Angus, that's what John agreed with you on,
Silly boy. πŸ˜‚



17 May 2026 16:30:56
Big mistake.



17 May 2026 16:47:04
First and foremost, if Dr is staying, we need somebody next to him that 100% has and knows Rangers expectations. Next is a minimum of a captain who knows the same plus more!!



17 May 2026 16:51:50
Stig, no it wasn't really the same in my mind when I read it, hence my response. I wouldn't trust Cavenagh was what I meant, but by the same token he would appear stupid if he went against his public backing.

I guess I was just trying to be 100% accurate on what I meant, that is all. Splitting hairs, I think it is called. I am good at that. 😁



17 May 2026 17:00:58
I don't understand this 'we need someone that knows the expectations'. What are the expectations? To win games of football? I think the manager is going to know that.

Barry Ferguson is still hired by Rangers as an ambassador. Get him to meet Danny Rohl and explain to him the 'expectations'. It'll only take a minute to communicate that we want to win games and silverware.



17 May 2026 17:01:01
Angus, that is how I interpreted your post.


Yes I thought I had agreed with him, Stig.

Angus here we go agin. I'll go back to just ignoring u.



17 May 2026 17:02:15
Baxter boy, I understand why, I'll be joining u again.



17 May 2026 18:08:07
Very disappointed and I fear Cavanagh is not reading the room here. That said, I will follow on as usual, hoping and praying that I'm wrong and that Rohl can turn things around quickly as he'll need to. I'm afraid it smacks of the sack by Christmas.



17 May 2026 18:48:59
Anybody advocating for Gogic needs their head examined. 🀣🀣 We need sooo much better than him.



17 May 2026 18:53:25
I hate writing a manager off before he's had a pre season, like to see Rohl get the players super fit before anything else next year! If we raid the Championship again next year, I'll be so disappointed! Not many have worked out well!

17 May 2026 19:26:38
Let's hope the signings come in early before either Europa League or Conference League play-offs start.



17 May 2026 20:45:46
Until we get a strong spine of a team to build off, any manager is going to struggle. If DR is going to have a chance, he better make us the fittest and most hard working in the league over pre season, that will give him a chance to get tactics and formation drilled into them before we lose too much ground.

Personally, don't think he has the personality to get players to run through walls for him.



17 May 2026 21:33:09
Just my opinion, but I believe in Rohl and what we can achieve under him, albeit has a lot of improving to do.

No one under any illusions that this squad isn't good enough and needs a clear out, and it should start with leadership group, as they have been part of the failings for years. All good servants but nowhere near good enough in themselves and we deserve better.

It will take a massive overhaul, but Skov Olsen aside, the other 3 signings look good on the whole and with more in, in that mould we will be better for it.



Regarding split in dressing room, that is only an issue if those against are staying, and doesn't necessarily look like they are, Gassama can go also.

Looking forward to the transfer business in the summer and getting the right calibre in that can cope with playing for Rangers.

Back the manager, back the team.



17 May 2026 22:25:11
True, he won more than us this year. Get the big guy signed up. Body on the line stuff is my kind of football. It will never happen though.



17 May 2026 12:06:37
Seen this any truth in it?

The fact that the Rangers players have organised a send off for Tav today at Auchenhowie, and have told Danny Rohl to stay away, confirms he has lost the current squad.

The second fact is that two thirds of the current squad won't be there next season, I heard that around 19 players will be released or returned to their own clubs in the coming weeks.

So it's another re-build, but the biggest question is, who leads it.
As i said i only seen this and copied it



17 May 2026 12:21:02
Don't be surprised if that's more nonsense, Gilly.



17 May 2026 12:24:46
I suppose it depends on how many of the players who don't get on with Rohl are actually going to be there next season. If the majority stay, then I feel it might be curtains for Rohl, because we need the players winning.

If the majority leave, and he brings in his own players, then he's more likely to stay. All will be revealed in a month when they come back for preseason, I reckon.



17 May 2026 12:25:54
It's going around, but unless they're there, no1 will know for sure.



17 May 2026 12:27:32
When did players get authority to tell managers to stay away from any part of club premises?
If any truth in this, it just shows the mentality of our players, & it's a bit like Gassama yesterday with his goal celebration.

Maybe if he had contributed more, the whole situation would not have happened.
If they want to have their send-off, do it somewhere else without involving the club.

17 May 2026 12:29:27
Interesting that Gassama done the Tav celebration yesterday. Thought that was a strange one in front of Rohl. I think there's a group of players that don't respect him fully.



17 May 2026 12:38:47
Media and Fan media have all been told that Rohl is here for next season. So that ends all discussion.



17 May 2026 12:58:42
Gassama's celebration was a tribute to his captain. It has nothing to do with how he might feel about Rohl. Whether we like Tav or not, it's obvious that a lot of the players do like him, and feel that he has helped them during their time at Rangers.
If Tav has fallen out with Rohl, it's obvious that he wouldn't want him there at any send off.


When I retired I was granted a retirement do on site by my employers, and although the tradition was for your boss to attend these things, I told mine not to come because I didn't like him. It has nothing to do with the mentality of the players, it just stops an unnecessary bad atmosphere at what should be a happy occasion.



17 May 2026 13:02:57
Can someone explain, apart from the good run we went on when Rohl came in?
What do fans see in Rohl that gives them confidence?

We finished with 4 defeats out of 5.



17 May 2026 13:05:17
One of the shining lights from the season that has just ended is that Tav won't be here next season. πŸ₯³



17 May 2026 13:07:11
Agreed 4ever.



17 May 2026 13:13:51
Well, if he's lost the dressing room and 2/3 of it's leaving it's not really that big of an issue is it. πŸ˜‚



17 May 2026 13:09:24
I loathe "player power".

I long for the days when an authoritarian would crush the upstarts under his heel.



17 May 2026 13:32:54
I remember Gassama lifting the back of his hand and mumbling on the bench after Stevie Smith subbed him off.

I wouldn't be so certain Gassama's celebration was nothing more than "a tribute to his captain".

I suspect he's an upstart.



17 May 2026 13:35:43
If players are dictating to a manager what he can and can't attend, then therein lies a major part of our problems. As I've said before, we must be the only club where 4 managers have lost the dressing room - perhaps it's never been the managers and the players down tools as soon as something happens they don't like.



17 May 2026 14:07:53
As another poster has said, I've also been told Rohl has already flown back to Germany to spend time with his family. As far as club captain goes, if Raskin does indeed leave then surely Connor Barron should be in with a shout.

Missed him massively when injured, gives his all and has an infectious energy that would rub off on his team-mates. Barron for club captain. πŸ’ͺ



17 May 2026 14:13:07
Rwn, I'm thinking captains and leaders for other clubs will be signed this window.



17 May 2026 14:47:51
Filter, Danny Rohl is over in Germany spending time with his young family mate.



17 May 2026 15:15:24
My star, hopefully! Can't have too many leaders on the pitch. Something we've been lacking recently.



17 May 2026 15:21:48
Rumour is Tavs making the dinner and serving it, then the dishes after. So he can do every task one more time.



17 May 2026 15:29:29
If our manager has lost the dressing room then I'm glad it's this particular dressing room. A fair amount of them need to be moved on.



17 May 2026 15:31:13
I really like Barron's effort on the pitch, but that's not enough to be captain at Rangers, the captain has to have a 'leading level' of quality to go with it - I'd argue we don't have anyone in the squad who ticks the boxes of effort, presence & quality - hence the void.

I can see the logic in a Barron or a Souttar, but we need to be aiming higher in terms of both presence and ability, for me to see a step change in outcome, so I expect that to come in over the summer.



17 May 2026 15:33:28
No surprise we stick with DR. Will we make any correct decisions?



17 May 2026 17:55:46
Barron as captain what is going on so because someone with 100% effort gets to be captain now. πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ



17 May 2026 18:19:17
Get McLean in as captain. Put Barron as vice captain with a view for taking it on the season after.



17 May 2026 19:09:09
People on here complained that Tavernier was a problem. That the leadership group needed to be removed. Now these players have decided to leave, the attitude has switched to 'the players don't like the manager, sack the manager!'.

I can't keep up with it.



17 May 2026 19:14:19
RWN1978- Rommens has all the qualities to be a future captain of Rangers, depending on who remains at Ibrox.



17 May 2026 19:53:05
If Barron is seen as starter and takes the captain's armband next season, I will be signing up to the flat earth society.



17 May 2026 21:18:31
Copland3, good shout, mate. Good to see someone give their opinion instead of just rubbishing others' opinions without contributing their own.



17 May 2026 21:36:39
Agree about Rommens having captain qualities.



17 May 2026 21:59:36
Rommens captained the under 21 side he played for, Genk, I think it was. He was speaking about it in his interview.



17 May 2026 06:19:48
Just sharing info i was given to see if anyone else has heard this πŸ€” Now obviously i don't know how true this is or how possible this would be but i was told late last night that steven gerrard to be appointed our new manager and Danny Rohl will remain as assistant to gerrard and talks are at an advanced stage 😲 Gerrard's backroom team will be Rohl and at least one former Rangers player from the past πŸ€” Again it's only what i was told and sharing it with you all πŸ€”



17 May 2026 09:20:06
Make up yer mind. Nothing like covering all bases. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚



17 May 2026 09:21:13
I'd be shocked at that tbh. Rohl is trying to forge a career as a head coach/manager, so to step back would basically end his aspirations. What future employer would look at that positively?



17 May 2026 09:21:38
More chance of Beale being hired as assistant to Danny than this happening.



17 May 2026 09:24:58
I had to check the date. I thought it was an April Fools.



17 May 2026 09:28:48
Thanks for sharing, SWS, however I'm inclined to not believe that at all.



17 May 2026 09:30:17
Peterpan, what has he posted that he needs to be covering all bases? I've read this constantly from a few, I'm very sure he has only said Cavenagh won't sack Rohl.



17 May 2026 09:45:57
Peterpan, can you understand English, my friend? πŸ€” I'm only sharing with everyone what I was told by someone else. I believe Danny Rohl will definitely be our manager/head coach for next season. πŸ€” Please just try to take that in and understand it, mate. πŸ™



17 May 2026 09:52:42
He can't help it, Coops, he's a lost Bhoy from Neverland. πŸ‘€πŸ˜‰πŸ€£



17 May 2026 10:07:28
Can't believe you actually took time to post this. πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ



17 May 2026 10:22:58
I'd actually heard the same, Coops, but I can't see Rohl stepping aside after holding down the main gig. Unless he's happy to coach and leave the rest to a manager? Who knows, time will tell.



17 May 2026 10:45:00
Not getting at anyone here, but that just seems a bit far fetched, can't see Rohl stepping back to an assistant (what would that say for the ambition of the guy), I don't think he is the man for us, love Gerrard but I think the Muscat should be the 1 we go for again.



17 May 2026 10:46:21
I could see a big name as a director of football or some sort of general manager, but I doubt it would be Stevie.



17 May 2026 10:50:54
Modern game, there are coaches for everything, so if there is a defensive coach he should be the first to go. Our defence is a joke.



17 May 2026 11:09:45
Is it possible he would bring him in just to push DR out the door, American businessmen, a different breed to be fair, but still can't see it.



17 May 2026 11:15:14
Have you been drinking, SWS?



17 May 2026 11:35:11
Thanks for the share, SWS. Be surprised if Rohl took a step back, but time will tell.



17 May 2026 11:44:45
Could it be Danny staying on as assistant for a month or 2 to give Stevie G a decent handover? Still think that would not happen, but would be the only thing I could maybe see happening if true.



17 May 2026 11:45:51
I would be shocked to say the least if this happened.

Players today are having a send off for Tav apparently and the manager has been asked to stay away.
No clue if this is legit but I've seen it in a few places now.



Look, Rohl might be staying on, I have no clue at this point, but he will be helped by most of the squad leaving so he can start fresh.

Do I want him to stay? Nope, but honestly, who knows what's coming.



17 May 2026 11:47:02
Coops, I haven't heard that, but I have heard Rangers are interested in Gerrard.



17 May 2026 11:55:36
Deary me.



17 May 2026 12:31:25
Not a chance of that happening.



17 May 2026 12:56:04
Honestly, too much has been made of the players possibly asking him to stay away. Tav might have beef with Rohl, and the player might have asked him to stay away, as it's Tav's send-off, that's if it even has happened.



17 May 2026 13:10:47
I understand Rohl flies home for a four week break today.



17 May 2026 15:31:05
I honestly think, once he is there with his family, he won't want to come back. I've got a feeling we will be looking for a new manager in 3/4 weeks time.



17 May 2026 16:05:52
I've spent 3 to 4 weeks with my family on holiday and by the end of it I would come back and manage Celtic tbh. πŸ˜‚



17 May 2026 17:05:01
Danny Rohl won't be working as an assistant to Steven Gerrard.

Danny Rohl has already won the Champions League as a coach. He was assistant manager at Bayern and Germany. For 4 years he worked under the current Barcelona manager, who is no doubt on a different planet from Gerrard when it comes to managerial ability.



Why would Danny Rohl take a step back and become a number 2 in Scotland? If he wanted to remain as a number 2, he would be working for Barcelona right now. Danny has chosen to be his own man.

Gerrard, Barry Ferguson, and Danny Rohl won't be working as assistant managers again.



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



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 23:21:01
Wonder if Everton have any clauses in the deal, as I personally think he's better than Barry and Beto.



17 May 2026 00:09:29
The way we do business, we probs lose half to his previous club, so for me only north of 20 mill is worth discussing.
Same with Raskin, if we don't clear 12 mill minimum, after payments, we are just pissing it up against a wall.



17 May 2026 04:03:02
3rd placed teams in Scotland aren't selling an inconsistent striker for Β£20.+ million.



17 May 2026 06:13:58
I honestly hope Chermiti stays at least another season with Rangers unless we receive an enormous offer that we just can't refuse. πŸ€” He'll be even better next season with a pre season behind him, and I think if he stays another season and does kick on again, we quite easily could get Β£20million plus for him.

πŸ€” There's no doubt, guys, he's talented, and I think he'll get even better consistently in scoring goals and will become a very good all round striker who'll score a decent amount of goals. πŸ€”



17 May 2026 07:07:05
Everton have 20% sell, is my understanding.



17 May 2026 07:10:50
Chermiti's goal return is good. 15 in his first season is a fine return for a player as young as he is. I think he'll score 20 next year because the improvement in him is clear - He's getting better. Seems to like the big games too. Rangers would be insane to let him go for anything less than stupid money at this moment.

If the sale of Dessers has shown us anything, it's that you don't sell your top scorer until a proven replacement is in the door. Danilo and Miovski need to be moved on, and we'll bring more strikers in. So unless the club is desperate for the money, there is no cause to sell our best striker.



17 May 2026 08:01:42
I think that myself, RohlWithCheese, and posted as much in an earlier post, mate. πŸ‘ I think we'll keep Chermiti for at least one more season unless we're offered a fee north of Β£20million for him. πŸ€” Like yourself, I see Chermiti being better again next season and scoring 20 goals plus. πŸ‘ Of course, that means we'd get more money for him when we do sell him, and we don't need to sell unless it's a big fee that suits us.

πŸ€” As John pointed out, Everton have a 20% sell on clause inserted in the deal when they sold him to us, so to make a really tidy profit, I can't see us selling Chermiti for anything remotely below Β£20million, and quite rightly so. πŸ‘ He's a talented striker, and if he starts to score the easier tap ins, he'll be the complete striker and a 1 in 2 goal scoring ratio striker at that. πŸ‘ŒπŸ‡¬πŸ‡§



17 May 2026 08:09:35
His goals yesterday were very well taken.



17 May 2026 08:24:08
Chermiti has 20 goal contributions in 30 league games, not bad at all, and he's only going to improve.



17 May 2026 09:21:18
Chermiti's stats are better than Shankland's. Chermiti has more goal contributions in fewer minutes, and scores more often overall. What surprised me most is that both players have a shot to goal ratio of 19%. Chermiti missed a hell of a lot of sitters at the start of the season, and Shankland has the benefit of taking penalties.



Chermiti won goal of the season, he's 10 years younger, he's worth 10x as much in the transfer market, and is only going to get better.



17 May 2026 09:46:25
I heard that Chermiti & Raskin are wanting away. Anybody else heard anything re: this?



17 May 2026 10:24:04
He's a much better player than given credit for.



17 May 2026 10:49:50
Depends what the player or players want, if they don't want to stay it only ends one way. Sold. I think the rascal Raskin will go, and if there is a good profit, so will Chermiti.



17 May 2026 11:05:48
Porto have huge financial problems. Huge debts left by Pinto De Costa, who was totally corrupt.



17 May 2026 13:03:44
I can't believe that we got a player who couldn't kick his own backside, couldn't get a start, paid well over what he was worth And agreed a 20% sell on. Everton must have seen us coming or have some hold over Thelwell.



17 May 2026 13:29:43
So I presume the sell on is what we sell him for. Sell for 15m, they get 3m, we get 12m. That's a 4 million profit. To double our cash, we need to sell for 20m. The thing is, we sell for 20m and ask for a 20% sell on. To break even, he would then need to be sold for 24m by the next club.



As for Celtic, they have a quicker turn around. They buy what is required to win the league, and quickly sell any players that allow a profit without disruption to their title challenge. We constantly talk of profit margins when looking at players. πŸ‘



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. πŸ€”



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



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. πŸ‘πŸ‘ 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. πŸ‘ 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. πŸ‘Œ



16 May 2026 21:32:27
I think I need a drink πŸ™ˆ



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. πŸ‘



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 23:26:45
I have to agree, my star. There is no opportunity for stability, trust building and consistency.

Something has to change and quick.

Excited for next season already. πŸ˜‚



16 May 2026 23:51:16
Give it a few weeks, anything could happen with manager and players, going to be a long summer.



16 May 2026 23:53:26
Gazza, the reason Gerrard was given time by the fans was because you could see what he was building in the team.
You seen the fitness levels go up. You seen a clear style of play.

I've said it all along, I don't want Gerrard back but there was a reason he got time and he gave some prestige to the club.

If Rohl goes, which I truly hope he does, it's because he's failed to win a meaningful game.
Lost both cups to Celtic, let's be honest here, if Nancy never came in they would be going for a treble next week under O'Neil.



A good manger gets more out of players. Celtic are not a million miles ahead of us on the park, but they are coached well and have a winning mentality and want to win for their manger.

We have none of that on or off the park.
Which is why this summer recruitment needs done a 100 times better than last summers disaster.
And we need a leader off the park to orchestrate it.
imo Rohl is not the guy for us.



17 May 2026 01:49:51
Alex, this is the same rhetoric everyone spouts. If it was so evident the progress under Gerrard, how did we finish further behind the second season than the first? Why did we lose 1-0 to Hamilton at home and get put out the cups by Hearts and St Mirren?

Why were fans screaming for him to be sacked and players doing interviews with the papers saying they're going to get him sacked if they don't improve? The reality is he was given the third season because COVID shut the league down early, and he won the league undefeated the following year, but fumbled both cups.



I am eternally grateful to Stevie G for winning 55 and stopping the 10. But I also think revisionism helps nobody. The reality is more than likely Rohl will be kept, and we do need some sense of stability in the coaching, and, depending on recruitment, none of us know how it will turn out next season. We think we do. We assume we do. But we don't.



17 May 2026 02:27:54
Ayrshire, I totally agree with you. I don't look back on Gerrard as a fantastic manger and who we need to be bringing back.
People do remember him too fondly and think he was better than he was.

Only thing I said was he got fitness levels miles above it is now and he had a style of play which I may add because completely predictable after 4 years which was give the ball to Tav or Borna and cross it 40 times a game to Alfredo.



As I said, I don't want him back, but it's all your going to hear over the next few weeks.



17 May 2026 03:49:33
Muscat, did he not play 4 times the amount of games Martin did though?



17 May 2026 07:18:57
Beale has the highest win percentage in the history of Rangers FC, Muscatin2. So, to say 'he has a lower win rate than Beale' as a put down is absurd. Every Rangers manager in the history of the club has a worse win rate than Beale. Beale finished his first season with 92pts, which would have been enough to win the league most seasons.



We've just finished this season with 72pts. Maybe there's a lesson to be learned in terms of sticking with a project here. Sacking managers constantly before they even have a proper chance is a huge part of this club's current problems. It needs to stop.



17 May 2026 07:46:24
Win % stats are nonsense, as everything needs to be put into context. Personally idc what managers done with previous board/owners.

I understand why people are angered by Rohl apparently being backed by Cav & Co. However, the squad getting completely gutted is more important.

Root out the mentally weak and bring in experience, supplemented by young, hungry, technically proficient players looking to make that next step.

Is Rohl the man to galvanise a new set of players going forward? I don't know - nobody does. Anyone who says we'll fail or Rohl will blunder is nothing more than hyperbolic nonsense, propped up by fear or despair over a possible repeat of the post split capitulation.

"Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts." - Churchill.



17 May 2026 09:18:49
Gerrard was nothing but a winner who brought back a winning mentality! That's it!

Everyone else has failed to do that.


It doesn't get any simpler than that.

No one has gotten close to what he did and How he did it.

This crap about he would have been out if it wasn't for Covid! It's just utter drivel.

We are a broken club, with broken ideas and more importantly broken fans. Hence the constant 'sack em' mentality! We are broken.

This season is another in a long line of sickening results and bias decisions and poor media coverage and manager mistakes and players not good enough both ability and mentality.

Rinse n repeat. The un-merry go round.



Rohl will stay, he will be backed to some degree and we will be starting all over again with squad. This constant shuffle of players isn't working. Nothing is actually working up until now.

Days work, maybe weeks. But within a system that isn't & hasn't since SG left.

What's the one thing that stands out. SG was given the time, with a system and a process in place. By the board and the fans. Yeh there were times it looked broken, but we all stuck in there and got our reward for doing so.

That is needed again. Rohl isn't SG, but the backing is stronger than ever, n the Yanks look determined.

So we back Rohl and we hope like SG it comes together.



17 May 2026 10:09:46
No matter who the manager is at the start of the season, he needs to see out his contract. We need stability, a manager willing to rebuild this club from scratch in his image of what a Rangers side should look like, and this time we hopefully have a board who's able to back the successor.



Throwing something at the wall and hoping it sticks every season is short term, and yes maybe we win a title from it but we will never build for long term. Just my opinion, it pains me to say.



17 May 2026 13:09:50
Forever you should check the maths, Gio was given a fair amount of money. He spent the money we brought in for Patterson, Bassey and Aribo, and does his one and a bit years in charge of Feyenoord make him more experienced than Martin.


Managers can only get what the board have, so Clement was the unlucky one because the cash ran out. If he had been in charge and got the backing that Martin got, we would have won the league this season as he is a proper manager.



17 May 2026 17:11:50
Clement is anything but a proper manager. He only had one formation.

Rangers literally built an entire squad to play a 4-3-3 narrow. A formation that most fans now want to see us play. Just like under Gerrard, Beale was going to use Sima and Lammers in those number 10 roles. They aren't traditional wingers.

Clement comes in and wants to play a 4-2-3-1 with wingers.

We don't have a squad to play the type of football he wants. The manager coming in needs to work with the squad he is given to some extent. Danny Rohl, to his credit, has tried to do that and changed the formation a number of times. The 4-4-2 isn't ideal, but it clearly gets the most from this group. Clement wasn't even capable of that much.



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 Β£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. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ ✌️



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. πŸ‘ ✌️



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 Β£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 23:38:43
4.5m is not a big expense in today's game. You were very critical of 8-10m on Chermiti on many occasions, Storm, and it now looks like money well spent on a superb young player. I'd say Rommens, Naderi and Chucky will all be good players, that's the only ones bought on his watch so far. Just my opinion



17 May 2026 06:46:43
Yately, my friend, Andrew Cavanagh allowed both Patrick Stewart and Kevin Thelwell to appoint Russell Martin. πŸ€” It was their decision, and he's held his hands up for him allowing them to make the call. But yes, maybe too long on acting, he then got shot of Martin and Stewart and Thelwell, and it was his choice and push eventually for Danny Rohl when others wanted Steven Gerrard and then Kevin Muscat. πŸ€” I absolutely think that Andrew Cavanagh will be successful as our owner/chairman, and is a very good businessman who will, imo, take us as a club to where we want to be, but that was always going to take more than 1 year that he's been in so far.

πŸ€” I'm very grateful for Cavanagh and the investment he's put already into Rangers, and I believe we're in very safe hands, and God only knows where we would be as a club if he hadn't come in. 😲 I also very much like the way Cavanagh engages with the Rangers supporters, so we need to be patient and give Cavanagh and co the time to fix our club, as I'm certain they will do. πŸ‘ πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§

Coops, Cavanagh allowed two idiots to employ a man who shouldn't have been near Ibrox as Manager. None of us could believe the appointment??? Crazy.

We are all grateful for the owners pumping Β£40 million into the coffers, but unless our strategy changes, they will be pumping Β£40 million in each season with the same results. Rangers always had a rearguard that was very difficult to break down, a couple of class midfielders and goal scorers, but I've been lucky watching Millar, Brand, Wilson and later Hatley, McCoist and Cooper compared to the rubbish I am watching today.

I don't see we have any financial issues with the current owners, and at least we now have some saleable assets. What we need is a manager that can sell the club to good players by showing ambition about what we can achieve with them in the team. We haven't been a CL club for years, but we can still buy players to become one.


We need a name manager who players will look at and say, well, if he's gone there, there must be something positive about to happen. That's the way it worked with Souness and Gerrard, they attracted players not just the club.

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.

Hopefully he can lead us to victory.

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.

Sounds too good to be true, Dio, so that means it likely will be, esp if Benfica & teams from Germany & Spain are loitering.

Looks great on YouTube but don't they all.
