I simply don't trust the board to get this right.
Who would you have taken? I think there's a good chance someone is lined up and the board aren't expecting to take that long hence DavisAn awful appointment for a club this size
That's true. People just like to say things like we need more winners like Gough etc. when it's likely they've gone through their Rangers careers and actually won fewer games overall.Well you know what they say about lies, damn lies and statistics
No one else.What's he done to deserve that?
He needs axed as well.To quote Tom Miller
“Happy Days”
That’s the spirit.I feel quite sad about the whole thing really. This is just another embarrassing milestone and yet another example of the club’s failings since 55 was secured. Not a Rangers supporter on the planet will be viewing the next period with any positivity…we are living in a period of Rangers being a bang average outfit in Europe, miles behind an average Celtic team and hanging in purgatory for who knows how long to come. It’s a sinking feeling at the moment.
Who knows what’s to come next, I’m filled with trepidation for the next appointment. It’s crazy to think that it’s probably a bigger risk for the incoming manager than it is for the club taking on a task of this magnitude. Get it right for once and for all Rangers, or we face yet more years of being second fiddle to that lot!
I would take him, to the airport to get as far away from Scotland as possible.
Maybe but I don't think their relative performances in Europe will show any marked improvement or regression either.I think the win % will be large for most OF managers from here on on account of the rest of the league being dire and falling further and further behind us and the scum.
Its a shocking statistic, are we a now a poisoned chalice for any new potential manager looking in?Going for our 4th manager in 22 months, we need to get this one right.
I think logic tells you that’s the case too. We probably dropped more points in the 90’s than we tend to do now, and that was with players like Laudrup, Gascoigne, Gough, Goram etc - players who were levels above what we have now.Maybe but I don't think their relative performances in Europe will show any marked improvement or regression either.
I said above it'd be for someone with more time on their hands but forgot about ChatGPT. ChatGPT reckons that we win about 70.9% of our games in the past 6 years vs 66.39% from 1986 to 2012.
This is the sort of stuff that if I was Beale, Gio, Pedro or Warburton I'd be clinging onto, but shows that it's taking more wins than ever to win the top flight for me and we're having to judge managers quite harshly off the back of it.
There was probably some that didn't want him, but I reckon most did, you included. You even admitted it was the man many wanted.Couldn’t give a shit about who wanted Beale. I didn’t and I’m delighted he’s gone. There were also many both on here and at games that never wanted Beale.
I sure it is coming.Had to happen, shame we cant get shot of the dross on the park as well.
Hope you are speaking about Beale.An awful appointment for a club this size
That's why like I said I have sympathies for Tavernier and the likes. They're literally (according to ChatGPT) winning more games than ever before but ultimately coming up short.I think logic tells you that’s the case too.

I don’t though. It’s easier to beat the rest now because they’re worse and as money has taken an even bigger stranglehold over the game with the ever increasing power of sponsors etc, we’ve gotten even further away from the rest financially. They should be beating the rest of the dross most weeks. As long as they fail to show some balls when we really need it, they’ll get no sympathy from me.That's why like I said I have sympathies for Tavernier and the likes.

Whatever manager it is, just go out and attack.
Europe’s a bonus. Group stages and maybe even some early knock out rounds will do fine for the moment, but we need to get back on it domestically.
I personally want Bielsa. He’s managed in the U.K., and in the Championship down south so he’s not a ‘huge leagues only’ type guy, but over and above everything, his teams just play relentless attacking football.
Do you think if they're worse than ever, the European performances should reflect that or they'd also coincidentally get worse? My own personal opinion is that most teams we're playing against seem better organized, fitter and more well disciplined against us recently than they did prior to 2012. That could also be an indicator of our relative strength, but like I said it'd need to tie in with us being worse and everyone else becoming worse while simultaneously being more consistent. Our coefficient has never been higher and we've been winning more games in Europe than back then as well, albeit, with more attempts in the secondary competition. I think if I employ ChatGPT for the second time on a Sunday night there'd be very little difference in the calibre of opposition and number of games won by club sides outside of us or them in the late 80s to 2012 versus now.I don’t though.

Managers like Lennon and Ronny Dildo probably have higher win %’s than scum managers who were better qualified and no doubt had better players too.
There was probably some that didn't want him, but I reckon most did, you included. You even admitted it was the man many wanted.
There were some who had reservations but you yourself were telling people that all managers were gambles and to basically get behind him.
Hopefully Steve Davis does well but I just can't see him getting the gig full timeThank God the board has made the decision late but not too late.
I hope the interim team does what's expected and I've a slight belief this might be an audition for Davis down the line.
I can't think of many more respected players that could become our manager
Knowing Alex Rae, I'm quite sure he can handle that side of things himself Alvor.Now that Duncan Ferguson has experience under his belt (a week). I hope it is him to frighten the fu ck out of the lazy bassas and put some fight into their bellies
He's thanking Beale for bringing him to the club. For making Cantwell aware of what we are.
We're the fucking Tory partyGoing for our 4th manager in 22 months, we need to get this one right.
Beale totally ruined Cantwell this season. Dropping our best player for the first game of the season then playing him in a midfield 3 to cover the RB position in the old firm game. I’m sure Cantwell won’t be too upset tbh.He's thanking Beale for bringing him to the club. For making Cantwell aware of what we are.
Beale is an irrelevance here, if Cantwell had a good agent he could've been here without beale being in charge
Some people on here will love that though.We're the fucking Tory party
What does the original post say ?Hope you are speaking about Beale.
Exactly, anyone with a brain will understand why this has happened.%^*& sake people just moaning about the interim now. Gives us a break it's interim and hopefully won't be too long. Jesus
Aye you made a right Huntntilla of that mateIt's Hasenhüttl but I was just using the gif for celebratory effect I wasn't suggesting anyone as a replacement lol
Edit: Didn't get the joke til I scrolled back now fuckin howled laughing for a good bit.
What the %^*& you on about???Maybe but I don't think their relative performances in Europe will show any marked improvement or regression either.

Data I've used below if anyone wants to point out it's shite:
These players win more games per season than ones in the past but come up short.What the %^*& you on about???
I know they’re worse than ever, I’ve got eyes. And like I said, more points were dropped by players who are several levels above what we have now. The coefficient is better largely thanks to our runs in Europe’s second tier competition, of which is different now than in the 90’s, where we were also getting humped in the CL because we won the league more often than not.Do you think if they're worse than ever, the European performances should reflect that or they'd also coincidentally get worse?

NopeI guess Banfield and the rest are gone with him
McCallum taking charge on Thursday it is then.
I think their fitness levels, European performances and the standard of the national team can be used to argue that it's higher than it has been for a long time.I know they’re worse than ever, I’ve got eyes. And like I said, more points were dropped by players who are several levels above what we have now.

The format of European competitions isn’t what it is in the 90’s anyway so it’s apples and oranges. Unless you think this current lot are just punching well above their weight and that’s why they drop less points but also win far less trophies than the superstar players of yesteryear.
Who then?Nope
Only Beale, Banfield and McCallum hold Pro licence at the clubNope
I'm assuming you've not read either the thread or the club statement?Only Beale, Banfield and McCallum hold Pro licence at the club
Tbf mate nothing wrong with what he saidThat’s the spirit.
