Graeme Ro55 655 Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 Since the late Walter Smith last managed The Famous Glasgow Rangers a dozen years past now we have had to endure some experimental appointments (being kind) in the managers seat. MB with around a dozen games under his belt at QPR, Stevie G with none, Perdo Caixinha, well lest said about Perdo "The Bushman" Caixinha the better. Graeme Murty must have managed our great club for over six months over a couple of spells with no first team managment experience. Even club hero, Ally McCoist had no first team managment experience. There are of course others with more experience like Warburton, Giovanni van Bronckhorst or Stuart McCall, but none that were the sort of proven top managers I would expect to take up the role. If we were to take the type of money we spend on a player (5 - 7 million) and spend it on a manager I am sure we could attract someone more suitabe. I honestly think a top manager can have a better effect on a team than one more player. We are after all the greatest club in the world and deserve the best. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
weebluedevil 1,179 Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 I agree. But who? Beale, has experience as a (first class) coach, less as a manager, so that was the thinking here . I can't think of any 'proven' managers outside smaller country leagues that would come to us.... but I'm not knowledgeable enough to know in any case. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Marcelo Gallardo, but the rest of the Bluenoses will have their own ideas. The thread was just me suggesting that we go after a manager with serious intent to get a finished article and not settle for experiments. That way we can all get behind him and not be waiting for the wheels coming off. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you smack 6-7 million quid on the table he might, but if you don't go after him you will defo not get him. Gallardo was just my thought, as I said to Weebluedevil it just has to be a finished article and not another experiment. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either you Guys and Gals will end up agreeing, or we will win the league this year. I hope I'm wrong and we win the league. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSocksRedTops 3,495 Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 I can't believe there is already a thread about potential alternative managers. Can I ask, would this thread have been started if we had beaten Olympiacos in a meaningless friendly? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I was thinking MB was a poor appointment from the off, and he's not convincing me I was wrong. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might as well get a couple of Gersnet Polls on the go. 1) Should we sack Beale before season starts? Yes / No 2) If it's YES then draw up list of better coaches for second poll. Gallardo. Poch. Pep. etc. Oh, aye and Arteta, Ferguson & McInnes (need a few ex players who know the club) Need to move fast though. Season starts in 8 days! 😬 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
