So they want a yes man.


2.) 17 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 18:13:36
WTF!
That would be a cheap option and a serious down grade from Gio and Gerrard previously.
I’ve always backed the board but not sure which direction they are going with that type of appointment?
P. S. Hope you enjoyed your day, John26.

John25- not that again. That's a huge no from me mate.

Surely not John. Think I’d rather have Billy Reid lol.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Billy Reid don’t seem so bad after all.


8.) 17 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 18:44:21
Omg if anywhere true that would be the time for the fans to stand up whether it be boycotting matches or not buying merchandise as clearly they want a yes man.


9.) 17 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 18:47:05
Honestly in my opinion this is an upgrade on gio bored bored of his tactics wee look lost no press no aggression trying to see games out his interviews well eh well eh sick of it.


10.) 17 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 18:52:42
Guy won more to trophies than gio and gerrard put together lol.


11.) 17 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 18:56:24
For whatever reason I think the relationship between the board and Gio has got strained in the past few weeks, as for Callum Davidson I'd rather have Jim Davidson, at least we'd get a laugh.


12.) 17 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 18:58:41
Surely not Callum Davidson ?.


13.) 17 Sep 2022

Had great day out,

The level off manager we r allegedly sounding out is concerning, is anyone picking up we r sounding anyone out.


14.) 17 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 19:05:17
Rather have Billy Davies.


15.) 17 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 19:07:52
Surely not John26 ?That would send our supporters wild with anger ?.


16.) 17 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 19:14:07
Surely to god John26 that has to have come from someone at the wind up ? That's not even worth thinking about as it won't happen, no chance!


17.) 17 Sep 2022

Can people remember a few things here because the panic is unreal.

The board have not given Ross Wilson the money needed to buy anyone good enough to walk into the first team. Instead we have INVESTED millions into a very young promsing left back who needs DEVELOPED. A good, solid centre back in Ben Davies who at 4 million is still a cheap signing these days. That’s the amount you pay for a good squad player and that might be all he is. At 4 million, he could also be DEVELOPED and we could be the ones that bring him to find the form that got him his move to Liverpool. Iv heard his wife was diagnosed with a terminal sickness. And he picked up a knock. Hence why we have not seen him. So let’s be patient with Davies.

Helander was the same money. Goldson was less and he went on to be ever present in the team.

Matondo is signed to be DEVELOPED and at 2-3 million that’s also a bargain buy in todays market. So that’s why he doesn’t start every game. We are DEVELOPING him.

Tillman we are trying to DEVELOP in the hope we do and we can sign him at a fraction of what he would cost if we were to buy a developed Tillman Bayern. Very smart move here.

Sands - he’s only 22 and has been chucked in the deep end. A utility player who can play right back, centre back and holding midfield. He isn’t someone who’s a natural CB. But he’s learning the hard way and he’s given us his all.

Leon king - being developed

McCann - being developed.

Due to the board and more so Donald Parks plan to sell the club with no debt we must see that Ross Wilson and GVB are working with a show string budget and doing their best on it.

To sign a first team player who walks straight into the starting 11 for us we’re going to need to pay 7 mill plus and that’s what was quoted for evander who would have been great.

But clearly the board are not issuing the funds for wilson and GVB.

Therefor how can we blame them? I would say in Lawrence (free) and Colak they have actually proved to be quite good at bringing in first team bargain buys. The rest are development signings.

We kept on scott Arfield and McGregor because Gio knew he wasn’t getting enough money to add a player who is ready to walk into the starting 11.

With king, Lowry, McCann, Ridvan and matondo we have a group of young talented prospects who could all be like new signings to us WHEN THEY ARE READY.

Unfortunately football fans have no patience and tend to not see the bigger, longer term picture.

Yes we want instant success. i'm sure Gio and Ross do too. But what can they do if Park and co won’t give them the money? Do you expect them to pay out of their own pockets?

Donald park wants to sell rangers with no debt. He’s used the money we made to pay off all debt. After the financial turmoil we were once in then fair enough.

He’s also a business man and wants to sell rangers for us much as he can. Understandably.

So let’s get off Wilson and Gios back.

Maybe we need to put the financial long term future of the club first this year.


18.) 17 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 19:26:30
Something in our club is rotten. That performance today was dire. There is next to no communication with the fans yet fans are expected to splash out on a whim. I really believe they are taking us for mugs.


19.) 17 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 19:31:29
Surely that’s got to be a wind up ?.


20.) 17 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 20:01:13
Think i would be happier with the side to side passing than Callum’s tactics. I could always say it’s drivel. But I won’t.


21.) 17 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 20:04:43
Billy Reid is the assistant manager of Chelsea. I don’t think there is any comparison between him and the st Johnstone manager.


22.) 17 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 20:23:42
Unbelievable!


23.) 17 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 20:24:17
What's the thoughts on why John is this a cheap option? Would cost a fair bit to get rid of Gio and backroom staff.


24.) 17 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 20:46:27
An upgrade on the guy who us to the EL Final and Champions League group stage, aye ok?.

Callum Davidson, cover at right back?


27.) 18 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 21:54:46
So so far on this page it's Davidson, parker, OSG, tuchel and I'm certain I've missed a couple.


28.) 18 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 22:01:22
John Russell Martin is a name iv heard several times he doesn't seem to be doing a great job at Swansea and was at Mk dons before tbh the names appear to be ones you wouldn't expect to be linked buy if our board are skint Martin or Davidson appear cheap options.


29.) 18 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 22:05:19
The board seem to have run out of ideas. Initially investment was needed to catchup Celtic and improve ibrox and murry park all were achieved then it was yo get into sustainability again achieved but we need investment to push on its either not available or the board are happy to take cash in and settle for that Can't believe where we are after winning 55.


30.) 18 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 22:24:49
Surely John26 you don't believe that callum davidson has any chance of becoming the rangers manager mate ? I take you as an experienced, intelligent rangers supporter and i'm positive you didn't believe whoever told you this mate ?.


31.) 18 Sep 2022
17 sep 2022 22:41:01
send for big dunc.


32.) 18 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 22:43:33
I'm not in the know but is it maybe just we have some bad form, tough fixtures and new guys slow to settle for multiple reasons (new country, injury, personal issues) and we are all looking for reasons and making rumours? Gio disappointed after a defeat and ex players start chattering. Gio leaving rumours started after a clickbait article where a Dutch ex footballer floated 5 or 6 names that could take job an Dutch FA. If we weren't so negative and looking elsewhere then maybe they have more confidence and better performances. Managers have disagreements with boards all the time but we can't rip everything up and start again when things get tough.

34.) 18 Sep 2022
17 Sep 2022 23:50:26
Callum Davison has done something gio and Steve g failed to do. Win 2 trophies in 1 season on a lot smaller budget that we are on.


35.) 18 Sep 2022
18 Sep 2022 00:02:24
John25, I think you've had to much free booze today mate.


36.) 18 Sep 2022
18 Sep 2022 00:03:54
Surely that can’t be true.


37.) 18 Sep 2022
18 Sep 2022 00:05:15
Callum Davidson was a left back lol.


38.) 18 Sep 2022
18 Sep 2022 00:50:28
If it were a only Scottish manager's choice I'd rather have Robbie Nelson or Martindale, in Davidsons defense winning two cups on his budget was quite an achievement.


39.) 18 Sep 2022
18 Sep 2022 02:29:25
Tomthumb i think Duncan Ferguson would be a great manager of Rangers the big man is very fair but if you are not doing what is asked of you he would go right through you (more than half our team would be in for a shock) if gvb goes i would love him in.


40.) 18 Sep 2022
18 Sep 2022 02:32:33
John tell me your having a wind up about Davidson surely no.


41.) 18 Sep 2022
18 Sep 2022 07:13:03
TT12 although i'm backing gio to at least the end of the season i tend to agree that big dunc is a good coach and going by sir alex etc will be a very good manager ?But if ross wilson is signing some of these players and that's the road our club is going down, big dunc would never entertain that as he would never be a yes man for anyone ?If dunc was our manager and wilson or anyone interfered for that matter on signing players and team selection the big fella would have them by the thrapple ?You won't mess big dunc about!


42.) 18 Sep 2022
18 Sep 2022 07:38:38
many on here wanted davidson after he won the two cups. mb board r listening

irvger certainly not fishing. leave that for others

baxter never had a drink. something not right at our club.


43.) 18 Sep 2022
18 Sep 2022 08:36:52
Gaffer I I assure u not pulling any legs. I have never went on a fishing trip on here.

Names like Davidson Ross Reid mcinness all worrying.

Park family r pulling th strings imo.


44.) 18 Sep 2022
18 Sep 2022 10:04:32
Agree john reg something not right at our club, I think Gio is on the brink, if we'd have lost yesterday he could have gone, the board have themselves to blame, Gerrard should have been backed the summer we won 55, 6 million in comp to Gio, that money could have been spent on players, I honestly don't think Gio can win this spl and the board believe this also.


45.) 18 Sep 2022
18 Sep 2022 10:53:38
Kinghenry. 4m isn't an investment look at the guy Jenz celtic got on loan even CV was a loan initially 5m for a LB isn't an investment agsin cdltic got juranovic an international for less the point the little money we've had hasn't been well spent and that is on Ross Wilson.


46.) 18 Sep 2022
18 Sep 2022 11:37:57
No wonder dave king wanted shot of graeme park especially after being the guy firmly behind the appointment of pedro ?King just doesn't rate/ like the boy of douglas ?.

Walter I right unbelievably, however this is a rumour site, I’m asking if any one hearianything.

But quite simply I will post no more rumours.


48.) 18 Sep 2022
18 Sep 2022 13:28:27
I will be honest, looking in at our club there's a piece of the jigsaw missing and has been for a while, letting balogon and katic
Go when we need two centre backs baffles me

Yes souter n other lad, but no where near our team

I think gio would have wanted at least one too stay as cover for champs league, but in my eyes someone else is making decisions n pulling the strings

This is just on example

We done well too get too where we are now, but i think current board members i. e park are happy and content with where we are at the moment, without putting in anymore cash, ?, we need a strip down n freshen up, but if a manager can't get his own players too buy, and has constant first pics in goldson, tav, kent, morelos, guys who look disheartened n unintrested we are in trouble, as he's just a puppet on the boards string,

Sorry guys long winded rant but hope us catch my drift.

John don't stop posting rumour because some may not like them.


50.) 18 Sep 2022
18 Sep 2022 14:19:08
The names that have been mentioned as possible future managers are nothing short of a very bad joke and would show how little ambition our current Board has.
GVB is the manager and should continue as such. It is quite clear that he hasn't had the support warranted this season although it reality the Board has shown no support for the manager since we won the league.
We need change at the Top and that means replacing Park as Chairman and if the current Board can't raise the necessary investment for quality new players then time for them to find someone that can and then step down.
By now we really should only be needing a couple of quality players each season to top up the first eleven but because of some poor signings we still see ourselves toiling to have a top quality side that is capable of winning the league and progressing in the Champions League.


51.) 18 Sep 2022
18 Sep 2022 14:26:10
This is not a rumour, simply no chance of this happening, I don't get why people are assuming we are getting a new manager. Callum Davidson will never be near the rangers manager position, this is the biggest cracker I have heard yet.


52.) 18 Sep 2022
18 Sep 2022 15:52:59
John has never put anything on for a joke so don’t why anyone is saying he is fishing, just hit his style.

Keep posting info John the majority want to hear what you have to say.


53.) 18 Sep 2022
18 Sep 2022 16:59:00
School of thought that GIo needs a Scottish Assistant, that’s where names like Davidson come from. Don’t believe anything on this.


54.) 18 Sep 2022
18 Sep 2022 17:04:57
If John says he heard something I believe him, whether it’s true or not. John imo only passing on what he hears, and more often than not he’s on the ball. Imo a genuine poster who respects others.

I’d rather have McInnes and even that is laughable.
