Had an interesting catch up with some friends who work at Rangers and they said that a lot of what PC is doing behind the scenes is very similar to what GVB and his team tried to do - which a lot of the players didn't take to.

A lot of the players we have need moved on so that doesn't concern me. If they can't better themself or cope with changes and demands then cheerio.

Too many auld guard had it too easy for too long n hit periods of underperformance with little too no cociqunce, also to many wit too much influence but not the play too back it up

Don't like it move on

Nobody's bigger than the team

Tune up or tune out.

The core of this team have a history of throwing the manager under the bus and need to be replaced if PC wants a long and successful time as Rangers manager, because as we have seen over the last three years as soon as the going gets tough these same core of players will down tools.

Big difference in character. Gio was a pushover. Clement won't tolerate nonsense.

Look in my complete personal opinion from the info I’ve gathered. Gio’s downfall was completely on partly being too lenient on player performances and partly being too defensive minded when setting up against teams we should be beating.

I have heard nothing of this around Clement of yet. I feel people aren’t completely understanding the rubbish show that Beale left him. Hopefully Clement can sort at least the majority of this out in Jan but it probably will take longer.

I know people won’t want to hear/ accept/ acknowledge it but at the very least our club has been a rubbish show since around appointing Beale (definitely longer as well) . But as usual we are left to pick up the pieces and trying to move forward.

We need to give Clement the time to change things as he sees fit. A section of our fans just don’t seem happy with anything the club do! I, personally still think we could do at least a double this year!

We have not had a quality manager since were kicked down the divisions, but I believe we now have one, although early days, and we need to give him time. Some of our players will prosper under PC, and some will have to be replaced if they don't show it on the pitch. Next few games will give us a good idea of the progress our new man will make.

There is a major difference this time. The guys that were primarily involved in the Clement appointment, Bisgrove and Bennett, involved Souness in the process so you had three professionals. In the past I would suggest that this wasn't the case.
Some of our old Board, that are no longer there, were as much of a problem as the manager.
Thankfully we now have a proven manager, probably the first since Walter, (and I say that with the greatest respect for Stephen Gerrard) .
With the right players, (and I agree that we need to steadily replace the old faces), we should look forward to a period of success, but he will need time and he will need everyone behind him.

Gio's downfall apparently started during the preseason trip to Portugal some of the players weren't happy with the rules he set in place for the trip.

Board need to make clear to long servers follow manager and do what he wants

We can only keep swapping manager for so long before board realise it's long serving clique players that are the problem.

we don't swap any managers, , no manager worth his salt will allow any clique to buckle him amd the board will support a good manager,

White horse, that is why in any Business the Board and in particular the chairman has to be 100% behind any new appointment. I have seen it personally, (during my working life I went into underperforming Companies with a remit to turn them round, where I had 100% commitment from the Board and the Chairman it worked. It's exactly the same for Clement, he has the job of turning round a non performing Business, (unfortunately his job is much more complicated, I could just get rid of non performers irrespective of what level they were at with the total commitment of the Board, and I could replace them with a top team, sadly he doesn't have that level of flexibility) .
