Yup, but what can we do? We're stuck now, I'm so disappointed and gutted. It's another season wasted, sorry. Don't care how positive folk wana try be. I'm a realist. Can't wait for my 4 hour drives to watch us have 75% possession and be 1.0 down to Motherwell.

This feels like a new low to me. I am not sure I can get behind this to be honest. Of course I will be happy to be proved wrong by a trophy laden season, but right now that feels as likely as a lottery win. Oh, and I don't buy lottery tickets ☹️

Much more importantly every picture of Martin I see he seems to be sporting a black jumper or even a gilet (or body warmer as they were called when I was a youth). This is fine if you're manager of some mid table jobbers in the Bundesliga or an architect in Zurich, but in Govan that's really only acceptable on retired trawler men. Can we expect the shirt and club tie look or at least official training gear to be a thing of the past. I realise I'm sounding more and more like my Dad with every passing day. It's a worry.

We will see. Hope I'm wrong.

Pretty much exactly my thoughts. Id honestly have had McInnes, Dyche and a few others who always got a groan ahead of him. if He was 3rd of 4th choice then the Board should have ripped it up and started a new search afresh and put interim coaches in place. I cant believe for one second he is the best option out there.

We only need 1 plan - it's whats brought Celtic so.much success over the last 15 years. It's simple - over run SPL jobbers, do that and you've got a great chance of winning the league. Its what SGs team did during 55. It's not rocket science

I did, I saw it's because he thinks he might be another Brendan Rodgers. Reality is. He's a shite manager too with 1 plan.

Is there one for sarcasm? Could be useful on here.

Well done Russell Martin in becoming the manager of Rangers now it’s the turn of the fans to get behind him and support him and his teams to the hilt. mon the gers.

Can't you read? I said I didn't want RM but he's what we've gotten, we'll need to live with it - I can see why they chose him, now they need to back him. Maybe get the fringe cut so you can actually see / read who us posted.

We started the EL Final without a regonised striker ,- what's your point? You asked a question but don't like the answer, your mind is made up before we've made 1 signing or kicked a ball. That's fine, it's your perogative. Look / listen to some of the stuff @Rousseau posted, you may get some of the answers there. i repeat, he wasnt who I wanted buy I can see why we chose him.

Actually. He started matches for Southampton with no recognised striker on the pitch. Ok. I get it, you want him because he plays brendon horse shoe football. Thanks for clarifying

Well, with all due respect, it is true. Perhaps you can answer the old canard which I posted earlier, with no response: If Russell Martin is the answer, just what, exactly, is the question? (I am going out for a haircut, so you have some time to respond, should you choose to do so.)

Enlighten me. What am I missing here?

Oh, it has, with all due respect.

I doubt that, with all due respect.

It's a terrible appointment in your opinion, which you are allowed to have, others can disagree. I've said he's not who I wanted and neither was DA, but he's who we've got, I can see why we chose him.

Like many I'm uncertain about this but it's also fair to say the process will have been a sound one and the same concerns we have will have been asked and answered in detail. As such, it's now time to welcome Russell and get behind him in what remains a very difficult task.

He had the same win rate in the championship as Rodgers - How's he doing these days? He plays a style similar to Rodgers which has proven very successful in Scotland. He plays with 2 forward / wide full backs like SG did, which proved somewhat successful. The men who chose him have vast sporting and football knowledge (unlike previous boards). He's been signed to simply coach, not run the entire footballing structure. It's now over to the recruitment team to get him (us) the players we need

News conference at 11.15.

The guy has never even even got a sniff of any European football in his amazing career. He is a managerial failure. He was lucky to not be sacked the one year he got promotion. Delayed the inevitable until he won 1 in 16. Come on. It's a terrible appointment and you are allowed to admit it

You can't answer the question by saying "but who could it have been" That's a shite cop out. Please show me your logic behind saying he isn't a failure. I at least gave my reasons.
