Richard gough to be appointed rangers manager if dave king takes control. just a wee rumour I heard! Thoughts please!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

05 Feb 2015 23:45:48
Can't see that happening to be honest. I see Gough more as a club embassador. There is money to be made with expats that has not been fully exploited. I see Gough as the guy to go out and generate business. We need somebody that has managerial experience that will hit the road running mate.

Agree0 Disagree0

David c, makes sense to me mate, but nothing at our club makes sense to me, since the asset strippers got there feet in the door.

Agree0 Disagree0

06 Feb 2015 06:22:20
Are you having a laugh! We need a manager who is proven, did we not learn are lesson with mccoist just because your a legend it doesn't mean you'll be a successful manager!

Agree0 Disagree0

06 Feb 2015 07:46:30
hooly, nobody said he would be great because he is a playing legend? then again he just might be, a true gers legend and has never stopped supporting the club, if the board feel he got what it takes then give it a go

Agree0 Disagree0

Ally McCoist, apologist and fan-calmer for the Green asset-strip,
Gough, apologist and fan-calmer for the King asset-strip

Simples.

Obviously must not have watched the full interview with King the other day. An hour long. Stated that Rangers would need a manager that could build a team. This is not Richard Gough. He has no managerial experience.

We need experience. not standing. Gough was in this mornings Daily Record saying he would be happy to help out at Murray Park. Possibly defensive coach? Dunno?

Agree0 Disagree0

After a lot of thought I reckon the best candidate for manager is d mc innes he has grown aberedeen every year scince he got the job I said at the start I would wait till we seen how he got on well he has done very well

Agree0 Disagree0

06 Feb 2015 10:26:47
makes sence bigwull think that would be safest bet

Agree0 Disagree0

06 Feb 2015 10:37:00
King and The Three Bears are going to surround themselves with Rangers 'minded' financiers, consultants, backroom staff including managers and coaches. This is the only way forward for the time being. However, and Rangers 'minded' manager, their coaches and scouting team will need to have a proven track record and a very positive mentality.

Agree0 Disagree0

Altus blue, I also read the story about mr gough offering his services, I think he could be used to help motivate the team, until the end of season,

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Feb 2015 18:29:18
now liambias denying that players need be picked every game u couldn't make this stuff up its shambolic no who I believe no doubt some will think he tells truth and side with him bunch of liars the lot of them

Believable0 Unbelievable0

I totally agree the manager should always pick the team but mcdowell not fit to pick team and 5 players on fringes of newcastle team well I would take 5 boys from of the streets to replace half of that shower of duds board out long live the king

Agree0 Disagree0

Red white and blue - you are spot on there

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Feb 2015 20:24:42
rWB, you have fell into the trap of thinking KMD is an person who doesn't know anything bout football, he worked as a coach for sellik while always being a Gers fan, highly regarded, I'm not saying he is the rite man, but this is a good man. He would have walked thru walls for our club, and he has told the truth today, and still people who don't understand how difficult his position was are happy to slaughter the guy, we really have plumbed the depth,

Agree0 Disagree0

Tommy I agree with you mate, I've also heard a lot of people saying that one thing McDowell is not, is a liar, people can have views on people eh, but everyone said McDowell is an honest man, no liar, and I would agree with him before I believed anything this board have to say.

Agree0 Disagree0

Each individual on that board are liars,, llambias latest denial confirms everything we know about that corrupt board, totally and utterly pissed off with this carry on, this is Glasgow Rangers there messing about with (an institution) not just a fitbaw team called Newcastle, got to have this egm and king coasts it, away for a paracetamol now as ma heed is busting

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Feb 2015 21:08:15
He would walk through walls! He just won't walk away without a pay off, message to mccoist and mcdowall take a leaf out of Harry redknapps book when he resigned he left the club!

Agree0 Disagree0

Hooly78 I don't think mccoist or McDowell will walk away, but I do think if dave king wins the e. g. m. then mccoist would resign, I don't know about McDowell, but hopefully we will find out in the next few weeks eh.

Agree0 Disagree0

The players were a disgrace on Sunday and tbh I wish you could replace the lot for Sunday's game. Surely those guys are better than what we have and will improve the team

Agree0 Disagree0

06 Feb 2015 07:56:33
and you actually believe Harry walked away with nothing, jeezo,

Agree0 Disagree0

Tommy51, Much as I hate to give him any credit, but did lennon not leave the east end boys without a year's compensation and, as far as I am aware, he was on a similar contract to our ex manager and the current interim appointment.

Agree0 Disagree0

06 Feb 2015 10:47:10
both you and me have absolutely no idea of Lemons contractual issues m8

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Feb 2015 16:45:35
I will be greatly relieved to hear the EGM called on Friday so we can actually count down the days until this board are thrown out!

McDowall should not be in charge of the team right now as every point and the Scottish Cup are vital from now till the EGM and a new era dawns. There is no reason the board can't have an interim manager in charge to help fight to catch Hearts, only 7 points if we win games in hand and beat Hearts at home rescheduled game and we still have to play Hearts twice WE CAN CATCH THEM

Mcdowall is a downer and hinderance to our team morale I would say Durie in charge until EGM he could NEVER be worse the Teedle Dum and Teedle Dee

i am george

Believable0 Unbelievable0

George, there are unconfirmed reports the egm will be rejected by the board tomorrow. can you or anyone confirm that this can actually happen and why it can and cannot be rejected.

Agree0 Disagree0

Hearing from sources that the request for an EGM will be rejected tomorrow. I really hope this turns out not to be true.

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Feb 2015 19:34:33
Granted for 6th Match 2015. Why this date when it is over the 21 day period from the EGM being granted. SFA meeting is on the 2nd March 2015. what's going on here?

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Feb 2015 19:09:03
would not surprise me sick of there rubbish excuses if rejected most fans must understand its time for action against the lot of them they are not playing by the rules or being fair to fans or shareholders there in it for themselves not the fans or the team THEMSELVES

Agree0 Disagree0

ED, what happens if the board does indeed reject the EGM?
Any information will be greatly appreciated mate thanks.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed039's Note - Nothing more than a meeting not going forward, King and the other guys start again. For it to be rejected though the board would need to show that they have over 51% of share approval or reject the EGM on the basis that they accept the resolutions put forward)

Bigcol

I have to be honest with you and say I do not know if they can turn down EGM if they can I think there has to be a reason as in they have to be able to say that there is a fault with Mr Kings proceedure I asking for the EGM, my reading is if the request is done in a correct and appropriate fashion they have to set a date for it withing 21 ays.

I hope to god they have to as that would be hard to bear after the last 3 weeks especially knowing that King's side have achieved the 51%+ required.

Refusal is their only way to survive but I am sure they cannot do that

i am geoege

Agree0 Disagree0

RFCStu

What sources? Wtf not actually quote your 'sources' to support your claim

I think there are no such sources. None anywhere on the web or media which covers everywhere pretty much!

i am george

Agree0 Disagree0

George tbh it came from quite a lot of callers on Clyde tonight. however on the heart and hand podcast seemingly liebas has told Rangers first it will be March 6th. I really don't know what to believe. ill never sleep the night!! Rhats out!

Agree0 Disagree0

In his defence George, Clyde were saying there were conflicting stories about it. RNS at 07. 00 will confirm.

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Feb 2015 20:19:19
There is nothing to be found anywhere confirming it either way.
That's why I've been erring on the side of caution,with what the club has been through.I always thought it seemed too easy and straightforward to shift this mob, hope I am wrong though.

Agree0 Disagree0

George, there were some murmurings of this from fellow bears in my workplace and when checking the LSE forum there are one or two individuals who also seem confident of the EGM being rejected. Like you I am desperate for the EGM to happen and really hope the info is inaccurate.

Agree0 Disagree0

Rangers will release an RNS tomorrow, this has to be done. It does not have to be at 7am, they could release it after trading closes. It is ready to be released, just a question of when.

Agree0 Disagree0

Also seen sitonfence and other collaboraters, calling king a liar and glib, doesn't say much for that bunch on the board who he, s always praising, like to know how much he, s being paid off them for this garbage he, s spouting

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed039's Note - I think that is quoting, it was a South African judge who called King a Glib and a Liar so they can be congratulated for being very unoriginal)

05 Feb 2015 21:58:01
got to laugh at these fans do they think big mike going to roll over and let them walk all over him king has proved time and time again he is a blowhard if he gets his way he will pay a lot more than 3 years ago

Agree0 Disagree0

To alrus blue. If the SFA decide Mr King is not a fit and proper person to be a director then the board can Decline cancel the EGM on the grounds of not properly constituted.

Then the waiting period begins again whilst Mr King would have to find a suitable proxy for himself and then call the EGM again.

It is a wait and see tatic that costs them nothing. If it is indeed outside of the time defined by the companies bylaws then KING could take legal action but why would he for a couple of days Unless by doing this if the current board lose the vote they could claim the meeting was invalid.

Agree0 Disagree0

06 Feb 2015 08:37:58
I admit I know very little about this but it seems to me DK has covered all the options, I sincerely hope so

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed39s I wrote in my previous quote that rangers would be paying for these loan signings you disagreed, I was proved right on that one, then when I say that sitonfence and the other collaborators for the board were calling Dave king a glib and a liar, you said it was a South African judge that quoted it, I totally agree with your statement, but it does not give sitonfence or the other anti king support any moral ground to agree to the judges statement, if anybody should be called glibs and liars it, s all these so called patrons of our football club on that board, there is certainly no saints on either side of these divisions, it really is a circus now, that board have got to go after yesterday's shenanigans, but give me king anyday, he canny be any worse than that shower of spivs

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed039's Note - I agree with you on your statement on the board and their statements, but I disagree that Rangers would be paying these players wages, does anyone have anything that says Rangers are paying their salaries?)

05 Feb 2015 10:25:19
McDowell Been told to play the 5 loan guys every game if fit by greaseddale. I would tell greaseddale to f**k off

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Not being funny but we could have Three teams on the park. 5 players in one team, 6 players in the other team and 11 players in the opposition half. Utterly bambozaling. This really must come to a stop. How it does no one can guess, it becomes more ridiculous daily.

Agree0 Disagree0

What a farce. I think Rangers (as a club) could be in trouble with the SFA and Ashley too. I agree that McDowall should have the balls to tell sleasdale to f*** off and let them put him on gardening leave too. Ironically, playing five fresh youngsters can only improve the team so we'll see if they play against Raith Rovers!

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Feb 2015 11:17:01
Who on earth does liambias and easdale think they are hope mcdowal decides not to play them this is also against the rules imagine if ashley stays in charge this would mean them picking the team every game this is mangers job the dressing room will be split see not one of our players have indorsed the new players

Agree0 Disagree0

I'm not unhappy about that. My concern was they'd sit on the bench. It's unusual yes but look at the " favourites " in the team who are given chance after chance week in week out dating the past two and a half years.

That's why we've lost and failed to develop our young players. Let's support these youngsters when they play. The dressing room is likely to be an unhappy place this morning but such is life.

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Feb 2015 11:24:40
If he tells the board to f**k off then this is classed as gross misconduct and he would be dismissed without a payout due to these grounds. He would not be put on garden leave.

The board are now clutching at straws. Mcdowell is trying to force their hand for the board to act and to put him on gardening leave by speaking to the media about this situation. He's being clever.

Agree0 Disagree0

We've all wanted to pick teams over last 3 years, agree it's wrong, but if it means Black, Jig, Foster et WL being dropped, then it might be a stroke of genius. concern is that we'll be left manager-less. but again, after 3 years of zero coaching, tactics, pattern, plan. who knows?

Agree0 Disagree0

We need a REAL manager anyway, McHoofit would prob not play them, tactically hopeless.

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Feb 2015 14:26:19
These players are better what we got but the manager is ment pick the team and if he is not rest of players will not be happy yeh we all want kenny out just like mccoist but they deserve respect and interfering with the team is ridiculous no one in there right mind would want be rangers manager under current regime what if these player turn out not be good and use want rangrrs players back in it can not happen cause liambias and easdale say so

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Feb 2015 08:37:53
Very upbeat press conference by King yesterday, now committing £25 million to rescue Rangers. Added to season ticket money that would be a great start. I think he is being sensible and shrewd by not attacking Ashley and stating that he could do business with him. He means with Sports Direct and as a less than 10% shareholder, not owning Rangers. He has suggested to the Board that they should go now and not wait for an EGM but I doubt whether this greedy shower will move unless thrown out. The endgame is in sight fellow Bears so we need to keep faith in the Rangers men who are trying to rescue Rangers and stop attacking King. The people we should be verbally attacking are Somers and his cohorts on the Board. Follow, Follow!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

05 Feb 2015 10:29:07
Now KMD told he must play all five toon players in every game, I think he, l walk shortly, no manager will put up with that

Agree0 Disagree0

Tommy- in my opinion McDowell should be moved aside immediately. He is now starting to be disruptive whilst he should be trying to help stabilise the club. Even though we probably guessed these young players would be given preference, he could have kept it to himself. The boat is rocking, and doesn't need any more choppy water at this moment in time. I doubt if he will be there much longer anyway when King and Co take control, they will want their own choice of manager.

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Feb 2015 12:56:30
Weebill your posts are appalling, there is no way in a billion years you are a Rangers fan, you must be a Celtic fan at the wind up or you are Mike Ashley,

Agree0 Disagree0

Poster 3, Although I don't totally agree with wee bill, I see where he is coming from. The 5 lads that have joined us, obviously, have a better pedigree than the bulk of our current squad, so they should be played. Our current players have not performed and I think the hardest task will be to pick 5 outfield players to join them in the team.
McDowall would have been better seeking a compromise deal with the club to walk away, but I most definitely agree that this farce must stop. The next 3/4 weeks are going to be crazy if the board's nonsense does not stop.

Agree0 Disagree0

Billyb

probably would opt for Wallace, Zaliukas, Templeton, Clark and Daly
and would assume Bell to be fit for goalie.

With Gallagher, Miller, McGregor, Law on the subs bench with Robinson.

Agree0 Disagree0

Apologies, forgot to mention Gasparottoo and McKay on subs list

Agree0 Disagree0

I don't think any of the current squad can have any complaints about these 5 players coming in and being played. Our players haven't performed and have been taking money under false pretences. It's more what 5 to pick alongside them. Again assuming Bell is fit I would have Wallace, Zaulikus, Templeton, Boyd and Clarke.

Agree0 Disagree0
