Rangers Rumours Archive February 05 2013

Let's be serious here, is Charles Green really going to get rid of McCoist, the Rangers legend? I personally can't see it especially with the relationship between fans and board at its most fragile in decades.

What do the fans think? The people who really matter and should have a say. Let's have a little poll.

Believable if you think McCoist should be shown the door, unbelievable if you think McCoist is the right man to lead us back to the top.

I never wanted McCoist as the manager. He was my Favourite all time player and I'm not a fan of legends coming back to manage the club. I think he should have left with Smith.

But I think he has earned the right to have a season where he has no constraints on him. He carried us for a long time during the admin period and before. He has never had chance to build his own squad. even this one. He was given a few weeks and told to get on with it and he got in what he could and was told to get us promoted. he is doing that but I admit the football is boring. We are not a Premier League team anymore big wage bill or not

Mccoist won't be sacked he has is a bridge between green and the fans and if he sacks ally then he will get a fans backlash, also ally isn't a young manager so he will never change drastically his team style, best idea would be to get in Barry ferguson, let him cut his teeth in the lower decision and get us back to the top but can't see it happening.

Give the guy a chance, don't judge just yet wait until he can build his own team from the transfer market, you have to admit the guy is working with his hands tied behind his back, and what manager would come to Scottish third division? be careful what you wish for, Ally will learn by his mistakes and come good, fingers crossed.

Aren't a number of the team McCoist signings?

This is the team Ally bought and built, that's his prob he bought badly. Black was going back to be a painter and decorator, Ally gave him a £7k a wk deal, Sandaza knocked him bk when team was in SPL then when no one was interested in him Ally gave him a contract ( mediocre players should never be asked twice to sign ) Kyle was virtually retiring because of injury, Ally gave him a contract and Shiels was the usual dyed in the wool fan ( that old chestnut is rubbish ) Ally gave him a contract. Ally has caused his own problems with bad buys!

Get Big Eck back now whilst he is available. He could be just the man for us.

Big Eck just chucked Forest get him at Ibrox - its a no brainer!

Celtic fan here. I've been telling my bear pals big Butcher is the man for the job but I think Eck would be an even better appointment if you can get him. I think he would be keen. He must be fed up of south of the border after all the changes in clubs and this latest fiasco at Nottm Forrest. A job like Rangers, building them up again is long term and I think I would suit him to have a bit of stability and at a club he loves.

I think we can all leave ally well alone yes he has bought some of the team in but would it be the players if he was on same budget as all other managers and we are a 3rd division team at present and not a lot of quality at the min but a lot of players growing with the team soon have a few more quality players to learn youngsters once ban is lifted so to all on allies back ffs give him a chance {The Ed039's Note - You cant be serious?)

Why can't he be serious? Ally will make a lot of people eat their words, get off the guys back, have some patience, he had pittance to spend, mostly trialists just to make numbers up, ok Black didn't work out, not yet anyway, we are all blue noses here, unite behind the guy until it's untenable.

McCoist must go he should be getting more from the players he has, most of them played well in spl for there old clubs last season, they don't look fit what do they do at murry park

black can be a good player for rangers but he's mind is else where as he just wants to put the boot in and its putting him of his game atm is form is shocking but he will come good am sure of that

This rangers team is not a young team there most mid 20s half the team are spl level players and our budget is like lower half spl teams and were strugling against teams in lowest division ally has to take the blame he lost a massive lead in spl b4 we went into admin has been pumped in nere every cup we've been in maybe time to go upstairs
me thinks there are sereous problems at murry park regards to training caus the players don't look fit and cg is hiding alsorts from us worrying times ahead {The Ed039's Note - Sorry, but your statement been pumped in nere every cup is wrong, we HAVE been pumped in every cup)

He's had a pittance to spend?! He's had more than every club in the country apart from one!

What does ian durrant do // {The Ed039's Note - Helps with training, scouts opposition, helps with the reserve team)

Durrant also said, ;we can win the four cups. samdaza said the same, is there something in the tea at MP

Helps with the reserve team? Our 1st team is the reserve team!

If McCoist is sacked who will take over, rangers are in the 3rd division of Scottish Football and cannot buy any players till Jan 2014 only free transfers in the summer, no decent manager will take that on

Greens principle aim this year is to get season ticket money secured, that's £7 million more for him and his pals to squander.

Winning div3 in 2 weeks - means ST at current rate 38k or more possible, unless big upset (all cups done) - only flea in ointment would be sacking ally - as this could undermine ST income.

So ally will survive, at least untill majority of ST in the bank, if 40k buy tickets green has options, if 30k buy then could be bleak.

Real issue is season ticket price increase?

How much? 10%, 20% more
How will increasing price affect sales.

Much Higher price and Much less tickets = Bad days
(this like charles dickens, and mr mcawber. )

I cannot believe there are Rangers fans who are unaware of the simple fact that the squad is the 2nd highest paid in Scotland by miles, and I mean miles.

6 million per year dwarfs the SPL outwith Celtic and there is simply no excuse for getting outplayed by any other team apart from Celtic.

Get a grip of reality.

6 million a year (going by papers it may be more it may be less who knows) but that is for a squad of 20 players an average of 5769 grand a week. no one earns that in any other club. the performances the players give us is a joke. the signings are beyond garbage. those who think ally needs time need to see these figures and possibly montrose figures and get a look at themself

There is no way butcher will ever take over as Rangers manger. He might be an ibrox legend, but he hates the club! Anyone who thinks he would even consider the job at rangers clearly haven't read his book. {The Ed039's Note - There is my next autobiography read then)

Theres no way butcher would come on board I think ally will stay on I know some of the new players have not been great I think this reflects on the pressure the manager has been under it would be very unfair to sack ally there is loads more to be done many hard years ahead i'm afraid before we get back to the top let's not kid ourselves on its the long haul ahead it won't be easy more support is needed and with the rising prices of basics to support a family and to get by to make ends meet it will be more difficult welcolme to the real world
