Risky business hiring Ulstermen at Rangers. They'll have to find out which school he went to and everything.

But equally, it wouldnt logically lead you to then giving him the job, especially considering his overall CV, and especially when it is such a big job that surely requires more managerial expertise.

Still unclear why being a club legend should be a deciding factor.

I wouldn't be too worried about cv's and that's. Sometime a job is ideal for that person. 

[roversfan99]

Yeah, why do people even look at jobs a manager has done previously. Just get a legend from his playing days in. We should get Dunn as manager.

Still dont get why the job is ideal for Ferguson or why him being a good player for them is a reason to get him as manager.

[chaddyrovers]

nothing more to add to my original point. I think Rangers need one of their own in there and reshaping the club. It will take time and that what they need. No quick fix to this problems there

[Mattyblue]

Yeah forget about CVs and all that, as long as you are a ‘club legend’ everything will work out fine.

based on the fact McKenna went to a catholic high school I'm not sure it's a move worth making for him.

Gerrard returning seems to be the preferred option among the bluenoses

With a name like Kieron McKenna, I don't think he'll have gone to the "right school"...

What ..like Henning Berg, Rudy Gestede, Jordan Rhodes getting jobs here?

[Leonard Venkhater]

And this amused me from Celtic fans...

Goodnight, Sweet Prince

Only Berg was a legend!

He went to St. Michael's RC so defo of the wrong persuasion for that mob.

Gerrard seems to be getting closer to Rangers job by all accounts. But as we all know, the Glasgow rumour mill has been wrong before….

🤞

Danny Rohl is another name being considered. Did a good job at Wednesday, players loved him. Rangers have some decent players who consistently underperform, Rohl would be a good choice if funds are limited. 

[oldjamfan1]

He’s a good shout Gav but if Gerrard is interested that will be that I think.

SG possibly asking Sevco to pay his tax bill?

That's why I'm surprised that Rangers want Gerrard cos of his tax bill. 

McInnes I could deffo the logic. Same with Rohl

Yes agreed and why not. 

He broke Celtics hold in 2021, they’ll be hoping he can do it again.

Gerrard has turned down Rangers by all accounts.

I am. 
 

Something has happened during the talks. “The timing isn’t right” doesn’t ring true. Gerrard surely wouldn’t have wasted his and everybody else’s time flying up for talks if he didn’t think it was the right time.

He would have been taxed loads if he had taken the job

[jodrell]

My guess is he wants someone else to pay his tax bill. So he could be out of work for some time.

Talks were ‘Progressing well’ on Friday. You’re spot on OjF, these things don’t even start unless an initial skeleton agreement  is in place, so something has changed.
