Had a wee smile when a fan said, do they realise they'd be appointing a non-English speaking manager! :D

and they'll be thinking thsat somehow he'll be able to attract a load of his mates up across the border. He best tell any interested that it's Glasgow they'll be moving to - and that's not the place with the castle and Thunderbird 3 - and from where they do the real big Hogmany shenanigans

and so from The Bears Den

there will definitely be a big budget to go with this. Merchandise sales will be up and we will be favourites for the league with even a reasonable start. It must be remembered exactly how s***e the scum are. That's why they are s****ing it right now.

but not all of that mind

Ah well. An unbelievable gamble based on promises from a proven liar. I really hope it works out but i just don't think it will.

Quite sad that you “hate” someone yet don’t know him

Sad to hate someone based on what team they played for.
 
Well Young Stevie has history in stopping Brendan Rodgers winning the title 😂😂

Sorry lads, couldn’t resist

Interesting appointment with risks for both Sides
Be interesting to see how much he gets to spend and if he spends wisely.
 
Whilst I do think its a touch early for him, I dont see anything but a learning chance for him. Having been a 1 club man, it wont do him any harm to be at a different club with different expectations and chances.
It also wouldnt surprise me if he consulted Klopp and both agreed it would be good for him, and who knows what might happen in the future.

Speaks a man who sounds like he has no idea what the Rangers job is.

Different expectations you say ?? What exactly do you think that might be at Rangers ? Septic running away with the league and everything else every year, heading for 10 in a row, I think Stevie G has no idea what he's let himself in for, this isn't the Grahame Souness era of a bottomless pit of money you know.

I like SG but I can see this being nothing but damaging for his career.
 
A four year deal!!!!!!

I really am dumstruck at this, who in their right minds gives a rookie manager a 4 year deal, regardless of which club?????
 
When I worked in Glasgow I was shocked abut how daft normally decent folk became when it came to talking "Old Firm."

Will be a useful learning step for Gerrard... and Rangers needed a name.

But none of this resolves the underlying issues of Club Football is in north of the Border.

Yes different expectations. Scottish footy is all about Celtic beating Rangers, and vice versa. Likewise the sheer hatred of the fans of the others. Religous bigotry gone bonkers, and only summounted by ISIS.
SG will learn a lot.
 
I expect Gerrard isn’t daft when taking the job , he would have spoken to Klopp first of all and also there would have been assurances given towards the level of investment he will be given which is good could well help him bring in some players that would improve the team.

It will be down to how long people will give him and what will be the expectations set - but even if it didn’t work out I don’t tbink it will damage any future roles. Good luck to him as I thinks it’s a very hard job to take straight away but others have done it and done well

No it's not, it may be for the ugly sisters but don't brand the rest of Scottish football as being all about them.

Why not, and if it isn't why is it only ever them 2 talked about for the title?
It's no different to the Bundesliga being dominated by Bayern or many other "smaller" top flights around Europe where is mainly 1 or 2 clubs that win every year.
It's only the EPL, Italian top flight and to a lesser degree the Spanish top flight that you get a much greater number of possible winners. Having a top team is cyclical, but in Scottish footy it isnt. That isn't good for their game or those youre trying to entice to take interest in.

I wouldn't expect Gerrard to have signed without assurances of cash to buy some decent players, or at least (in essence) to start using Rangers as Liverpool's youth team! :D

It is important that something changes to make it a two horse race, rather than a one horse race. I thought Brendan Rogers recent comments were odd, as in 10 years if he says he won "x" consecutive Scottish titles, the reply would cause offence/humour (delete as approp.) The gulf is so vast, it's pointless.

Probably in the same way only 2 ever get talked about in England for the title and this year in particular it was more of a runaway than the Scottish Premiership

Take Celtic aside for 1 second and look at the fight for second and how close they are to Celtic this season. It's been more competitive than people give credit for. 13 points separate 1st and 4th with 3 separating 2nd and 4th.

Yes Celtic are by far and away the top side and yes someone needs to step up BUT that isn't Celtics fault, they can only play what is put in front of them
