der Berliner 3,716 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 By their own admission they negotiated player signings poorly. By their own admission the previous board(s) negotiated player signings poorly. So far, the current board hasn't done much wrong in this respect. As for Nerlinger and moonbeams, people leave themselves with very little room to argue if they polarise between moonbeams and actual signing/contract talks. Whatever Green did or didn't do with Laudrup, this board obviously talked to Nerlinger and that position. It borders on conjecture to assume that they knew full well that he would decline, but conjecture is flourishing anyway. BTW, I for one can't remember that Rangers officially proclaimed that they were talking to Nerlinger on our homepage, so unless you read the Scottish papers and informed journos, those moonbeams did not shine for that many people. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club has never confirmed nor denied it was in talks has it?Don't think the club has said one thing about Nerlinger or about even being in talks with any potential candidates. It could have been a story made up by one of the papers or a bad tip they were given, wouldnt be the first time would it? The only comment from nerlinger was one saying he didn't want to comment on the story but he loved the club.Again no confirmation of any approach. according to the 120 day plan phase 1 of scouting will not happen till after money is raised in Autumn. Why would they then look to hire someone with the specific job of structuring our scouting and player development when they couldn't even tell him what budgets he would have to operate with? Who would take that kind of job without knowing if the club has the resources to financially fund any plan you brought? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calscot 0 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Why would they then look to hire someone with the specific job of structuring our scouting and player development when they couldn't even tell him what budgets he would have to operate with? Wasn't that what a large chunk of the 120 day review was about? Who would take that kind of job without knowing if the club has the resources to financially fund any plan you brought? I don't think the timing is of relevance here as with this board, it's a continuous problem with no sign of changing... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

der Berliner 3,716 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 how do you know we ever spoke to nerlinger? ... T'was reported over here too, though I did indeed not ask Nerlinger himself so far ... Nerlinger verhandelt über Managerjob bei Glasgow Rangers Bayern Münchens früherer Sportdirektor Christian Nerlinger verhandelt einem Bericht zufolge über einen Managerposten bei seinem ehemaligen Verein Glasgow Rangers. Der Boss des schottischen Fußballklubs, Graham Wallace, habe bereits mit Nerlinger gesprochen und wolle ihn erneut treffen, berichtete die britische BBC. Der einstige Bayern-Profi hatte von 2001 bis 2004 im Mittelfeld der Rangers gespielt. In der kommenden Saison tritt der Traditionsklub in der zweiten schottischen Liga an. Nach einer Insolvenz waren die Rangers 2012 in die vierte Spielklasse verbannt worden, schafften aber bereits zwei Aufstiege. Nerlinger sei der Favorit auf den Posten, heißt es in dem Bericht. Allerdings wollen die Rangers auch noch mit anderen, erfahreneren Kandidaten Gespräche führen. Nerlinger würde bei Glasgow einige Verantwortungsbereiche von Ally McCoist (1983 bis 1998 Spieler bei den Rangers) übernehmen. McCoist hatte kürzlich über die Zustände beim schottischen Klub gesagt: „Wir brauchen Unterstützung beim Scouting, bei der medizinischen Versorgung, überhaupt bei allem.“ Sample ... Bild or Focus ... essentially quoting the BBC and saying that Nerlinger was at the time the prime candidate, but others are interviewed too. Could all be the BBC at the wind-up or a naughty Operation Tango attempt, of course. As for the rest, talking to someone about a position does not mean that he comes in the next day. Building a decent infrastructure will take time too. @ gunslinger ... did he touch you on the shoulder too? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
