At this moment I'm fully supportive of the manager to all those that didn't want him or are currently having a go I would say who did you want.We have tried a title winner from Belgium, a highly rated young German coach both were no great shakes.I don't think DM will take any prisoners and won't hesitate to drop players who are not on it.

We could have kept Danny Rohl. He was under contract and maintains he was fully committed to the club. It was Rangers who accepted a compensation offer from another club, gave Rohl permission to speak with them, and chose to go the McInnes route.
If Rohl goes on to be a success at his new club, the question might be - 'why didn't we give him more time?'. He wasn't here long enough, nor did he sign enough players, for us to say he had a fair crack at it.

It's irrelevant who people wanted tho.
The question is whether McInnes is the right man for the job or not. I think he needs time. But I do think it will end one way.

Agreed - but he needs to be a bit more coy when dealing with media. 🤔 Our Del Boy needs to play the game with them as a true Del Boy once did from - "Trotters Independent Trading". 🤔 😁 😁 😁

Rohl wanted out. It was clear as day. We don't want to keep people here who don't want to be here. So we may as well do it on our terms and get a fee. Let's be honest, had we told Rohl he's staying, we probably would have sacked him in a few months anyway and then lost a whole load of money.

There's not a hope in hell we could have kept Rohl. Stopping a manager moving to a better club would have been the last nail in our manager recruitment strategy.

Okay guys, I agree our first 2 games have been pretty dire, but I'm an eternal optimist.
Even the great Dick Advocatt lost his 1st league game away to Hearts 2-1, with far superior players to what we have today on the pitch.
Personally, I am fairly confident we will beat Hibs, and also the Polish mob next Thursday, and, if so, I'm sure that outcome will lift the gloom which, rightly, is pervading this site just now.
Ok, I'm not putting my mortgage on that double coming up, and I'm sure nobody else would.

Rolh also didn't have to accept the contract at Leipzig RWC, so he wanted to leave - it was his decision in the end.

Rangers knew in April Rohl and his backroom team wanted out.

The vast majority were happy to see Rohl go, majority happy to see Dm in, two games in under another major overhaul, so would like to get to window before throwing their toys out the pram.

Was Dick Advocate not 3-0 down to Shelborn before the Amato show started. 😬😬

I know you rate Barron better than Devlin Storm and that's your opinion, mate, and although I like Barron, Devlin is definitely better than Barron for me, my friend. 🤔🇬🇧

Dado, I was not talking about friendlies, but you are correct, bud.

How does Storm rate Barron? He calls him a headless chicken. 🤔
