Absolutely essential we get the right manager in for next season

I have been watching the championship in England quite closely this season and would take Mark Warburton in a heart beat , he has over achieved with Brentford in a league heavily weighted towards clubs relegated from the obscene EPL , the wok rate of his teams and the way they are set up is brilliant , I suppose I can only hope , but both he and Davie Weir would be most welcome IMHO

Definitely but pretty much no chance of attracting him, he's getting a lot of Premiership interest. Someone up and coming in league 1 is probably more realistic.

He's leaving Brentford at the end of the season so we could theoretically get him I think. However, I am not interested in him because the reason he is leaving is he doesn't want to work with a DoF, which is something that I would like to see at Rangers. For me, a DoF-type appointment is important.

I'm watching Brentford just now and, yes, they are hardworking and well organised. But, thinking about it, they remind me of Burnley; Burnley were exactly the same last year, but as we saw, once they come up against better PL sides they are lacking. If -- and it is a big if -- Brentford go up, that work rate and organisation will count for nothing in the PL.

But you are comparing Burnley against teams that vastly out spend them , we would have the second biggest squad budget , it's a completly different discussion

I agree we would do well domestically, but i'm thinking longer term; i'm thinking about Europe. We wouldn't stand a chance because the high work rate and organisation is a basic trait; we'd need something more.

You can't say that because you , like me simply don't know that

Yes he's leaving Brentford, a team in the playoff places in the championship, and is attracting a lot of Premiership interest. I don't see how we could theoretically get him.

Yes, you are right, it would be difficult. My point was that it's not a case of competing with money (buying out his contract), but competing on "project". I don't think he is experienced enough to get a PL job, so I think "theoretically" we could challenge a Championship club for him.

 

But, like I said, I'm not interested in him because i'd prefer a DoF.

I'll concede that we can never know, but I still maintain that work rate is nothing unique.

 

Again, i'd prefer a DoF, so he would not be acceptable for me.
