Michael Beale hinting that Alan Mcgregor could stay at the club beyond this season. Surely this has to be in a coaching position - this jobs for the boys has to stop - we need to move forward.

Would be a great coach a lot of ex players make good managers and coaches no harm seeing if it works out for 6months a year.

Don't think it's a bad thing to have him around helping progress the young keepers and fighting for 2nd or 3rd choice keeper next year.

Would only really make sense if he is paid as a back up keeper/ coach and not a no1 goalie in his prime lol.

SirStruth - He said nothing of the sort. Listen to the interview he did on Rangers TV instead of the nonsense spin in the rags.

Correct Peter.

Not sure how he makes a great coach. Does not do great with ball at feet does not leave his line.

Mb he could learn to coach that in future.

C’mon John you’re better than that . you don’t need to tick every box as a player to make a good coach. Lots of good coaches couldn’t trap a bag of cement. Personally I think Greegs could be a good coach but I’m not convinced he should be competing for the Gloves.

What Beale said that he had been tremendous for him and complimented him on notching up 500 appearances. Then he said "and he`s not finished yet " which is right, we have the rest of the season to go. The lazy media have jumped on this and made up a story about him getting another years contract.

How someone plays and coaches is completely different. Great players don’t always make great coaches etc….

Ano storm that’s correct but no harm in seeing how he does over 6/ 12months could be with the youth and still be 2/ 3 choice if needed that’s just my view.

Scotty I am better than that yes however I don’t see mcgregor being a coach. We r trying to progress not give all our ex players deals to pay family bills

Intr my understanding they have not spoken yet, both only returned yet.

To be a successful coach you need to have something between your ears that gives you the empathy to understand people and motivate them to change something about themselves.

Like Barry Ferguson I don’t see anything in McGregor that suggest he has that talent ~ but what do I know?‍♂️

He will be scooped up as a pundit as soon as he is available and make a decent living.

Mcgregor will retire and go away and chill. He might get involved eventually at a club rather than Rangers,

not sure scotty, what abilities does mcgregor have that makes you believe he is a good coach?


14.) 29 Mar 2023

I don't believe Mcgregor will become involved in being a pundit.

Gees. He’s apparently well respected by coaches and players, that’s a very good start, has bags of experience at our club and in Europe and internationally, he’s worked alongside some world class keepers at our club and very well respected GK coaches. Again though that doesn’t mean he would be a good coach but he ticks a lot of boxes for me. He knows the club inside out and for me would be valuable to our new no1 to lean on.

Can't see Mcgregor doing coaching meant to be bad with arthritis.

Firstly how someone plays has nothing to do with how they coach or manage if it did every coach would be Ronaldo klinsman laudrup top players but that's just not the case.

Secondly I don't. see how McGregor going from our obvious no.1 to a great back up no.2 is a bad thing why do people want him hounded out when the current thought is he is better than McLaughlin and mccrorie ? if we move on too many players it will stop us getting real quality i'd rather 2 or 3 quality players that 6 to 7 projects and gambles.

No way McGregor becomes a pundit he's too laid back and sounds like Andy Murray a bit.

I don’t think McGregor has the right mentality to be a coach. Great keeper and great attitude but never constructive and always howling at his teammates.

Ac21 you've obviously never been a keeper them as that's exactly what you have to do as a keeper.

I would not be replacing Colin Stewart as goalkeeping coach, I used to do a night a week at his goalkeeping school when I was younger and the guy is a top quality coach. He's been building his coaching career since he was still playing senior football. Has experience with all levels of keeper.

1. How do we know McGregor even wants to coach?
2. Do we even have a vacancy for a goalkeeping coach?
3. Does McGregor have any coaching qualifications?
4. Do we really think we should hire him for 6 months to see how he gets on? Absurd!
5. A pundit? Can't see it at all.
Allan McGregor might sign on for another year as a backup keeper and if so there is nothing much wrong with that. If not (and I don't think he will) he'll simply retire. By the way, I've known the guy since he was 13 and I love him to bits, he is a Rangers legend and will leave as such.

The goalkeeping coach that's at the club will be the one advising the club if McGregor has what it takes or not it's amazing people who have no idea about keepers making daft comments about keepers ability

Very few keepers come from Thier line. nowadays at crosses and set pieces that thinking is dated.

And McGregor is fine with ball at his feet he is not accurate as some others but that is not the main attributes for keepers that are good with ball at feet one is assessing danger properly and two is not someone who will panic both of these McGregor has I argued this point at start of season people didn't listen when I was warning of McLaughlin's frailty and his lack of ability with ball at feet many saying he was better than McGregor and they quickly got proved wrong. ?

Some so called rangers supporters on here seem to have it out forcgregor on here.
