Ser Barristan Selmy 222 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 We have 12 games left of the season, how quickly would you expect a new manager to start getting results??? What happens if the results don't come immediately - sack the manager & try again??? Rushing to install a new manager (even for the short term), is just starting to paper over the cracks again. As it stands, we have a "manager", who with the players available should be able to make the play-offs. Over recent years, there have been too many "shortcuts" & quick fixes. Now is the time to really start a fresh & that means not rushing into anything. It's irrelevant what should be possible. We need back in the SPL next season and as such need to get someone competent in the door now, regardless of the duration of their contract. Then next season should see a complete overhaul implemented. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete 2,499 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 As long as we keep swamping the midfield with mediocre static players then i am afraid we will find it difficult to break other teams down. Hutton is never a play-maker and playing 2 holding midfielders doesn't help him either. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then next season should see a complete overhaul implemented. As I said earlier, the problem with that is that it could lead to rash purchases & inflated wages/contracts for very mediocre players.....with the odd unnecessary purchase. We will buy players coz they are available, not 100% coz they will add something specific to the team. All this should have been done when we were in the 3rd Div, but it didn't happen. We are now at a point where the team is struggling, the management is struggling & everyone is desperate for promotion. How long will it take the fans to turn on the new board, when we are struggling in the Premiership??? Coz that is what will happen if the way ahead isn't properly planned. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Building a side that can compete with the likes of Aberdeen and Dundee United next season is not a big ask. I agree that the rebuilding process needs to be done correctly though. I'm not overly concerned with how we do in the next 2 or 3 seasons. I'm more concerned with how we're doing in 5 years and beyond. That said, given how poor our league is we simply have to be doing everything possible to make the SPL next season. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmu 0 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 here's one from leftfield. I think the guy is a bit of a tool but could he do a short term job to try and keep us up and would do it for relatively low cost and would accept it short term as he has Rangers wellbeing at heart? . John Brown. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoodyBlue 0 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I think it's a stick on that Magath will come in now until the end of the season. And I don't necessarily think he'll ask for much of a wage - if any at all.................. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,245 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 One a sidenote, I read today that Warburton and Weir will leave Brentford this summer because from then on a DoF will be employed by the club and neither of the aforementioned two want to work under such a system. Haven't double-checked that with any info from Brentford though. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brentford are 'planning for the future' and want to take 'another direction' with regard to managerial matters. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
