Fuck Debbie, I love Rangers 💙

Not my first choice, but at least it's not Dyche or McInnes.

I was wrong about Walter’s second stint. Hope I’m wrong about Gerrard.

If bringing SG back is the height of their ambition I'm gutted.

Walter got backed and was able to bring in some quality. He could organise a defence and man managed very well.

 

What happens now?

Does Gerrard get to manage or is he head coach, told to develop players ?

 

Is there an attempt to merge the two?

 

If there is an attempt to merge the approaches, it comes down to recruitment.

 

If a fair bit of money is spent, will Gerrard want actual quality or be happy with potential quality? 

 

 

My gut feel says Gerrard wouldn't take us to where we should be going, ie. a sustainable and modern football club.

If we get Gerrard back would that mean Beale would be back as well .

[Bluedell 6,207]

Everyone is positive about a bright future under our new owners. It would be a massive own goal to go back 7 years and reappoint Gerrard. There's nothing new about that.
