Am I right in thinking new ceo coming in after the Tottenham and celtic game being reported on the 16th December?
Some seem to think he could actually pull the trigger on PC if results are poor up to his appointment
Be interesting to see what he says when he comes in.
27 Nov 2024 21:58:09
Interesting today as well PC saying its actually 4 months into the project rather than a year. Maybe the board are thinking this way too.
27 Nov 2024 22:03:01
If that's what he want's to do then he can because that's his job.
27 Nov 2024 22:12:12
That is the reality though BigDado, many new players in the team and even for the players that were here still finding out how others play mate.
27 Nov 2024 22:17:41
Really don't know how much more of this guys nonsense I can take. Only 4 months count? So he wasnt responsible for any coaching of the players for the other 8months of players still here. 16players out? Aye the majority reserves or kids. We still starting 8 or 9 players from last season, did he not make a start working with them before this season either. Utterly clueless and taking us for mugs. Get a grip and sort out the mess you made over Whole Year. or get out.
27 Nov 2024 22:59:36
Folks that's a political type of thinking from someone who has failed. The narrative reflects were we are in time. What a load of crap.
27 Nov 2024 23:21:19
My Star so were Aberdeen flying mate I just can’t get my head round it, it sounds as if people are saying it takes players longer to settle in at Rangers than any other club example being Kuan and Diomande join Celtic and Rangers the same time Kuan is flying and Diomande is struggling. To me it’s just another poor excuse.
27 Nov 2024 23:47:34
Mental people think a new manager changes this at the drop of a hat. I don’t think he’s the guy personally to take us forward but who ever replaces him isn’t going to change much either. We’ve lost 7-8 first team players and leaders so to speak we’ve had to down size or wage bill and the wage bill we can offer we were a mess prior to pc coming in and the new manger bounce he gave us was always going to come crashing down eventually like it will if we replace him before the season is done. The boardroom mess, the ibrox mess the fans dooming after a game or 2 and turning on him so quick didn’t help and the players probably feel it too they probably don’t care due to the abuse they get and I know most of you think it’s vetted and I don’t really disagree but answer me this when your at work and some one mis treats you, belittles you or slags you off do you still give 100%? I certainly don’t you get the bare minimum. Treat me right and I’ll go above and beyond. Those 8/ 9 from last season how many are his? People are on the band wagon and won’t jump off it untill he’s gone and it’s a similar situation with dessers playing off scraps weekly and still doing decent with a lack of service even though he can be frustrating he had a terrible start to his career with us but it took a fair up swing and he produced the best numbers we’ve seen from a striker in a long time and isn’t that what most of you wanted? Numbers! Again he’s another one we can improve on but I still like the big man and think he’d be much better with wingers and midfielders than can create and give him chances more regularly.
27 Nov 2024 23:54:13
Exactly, he keeps moving the goalposts.
28 Nov 2024 00:14:42
Mystar been trying to be as patient as i can as well bud. Usually i'm going as mental as everyone else but reality is we probably have to take some steps back to go forward. There is no easy option or quick fix. I've made peace with it as the other option is drive myself nuts.
28 Nov 2024 02:21:03
If only 4 months count then his win percentage is even lower in that case. The contradictions he’s making are embarrassing. Saying he didn’t have Hagi. He said earlier he didn’t want Hagi.
28 Nov 2024 07:28:10
hew is saying that the rebuild process is 4 months old not that he has been here only 4 months. the downsizing of wages, getting rid of the overpaid members of the squad, the buying of the younger less experienced squad. he wasnt doing that lasts season and the word was he had just been told that the job he thought was there was different. some may even remember the furore around the board lying to him at that time. take off your PC hating glasses for one second and you will see that what he is saying holds water.
28 Nov 2024 07:42:45
Just because people don't like what he said doesn't make it incorrect.
He is 4 months into the project, the project that the board chose.
28 Nov 2024 07:53:50
We are not having 4 year of PC’s inadequacy. He’ll be gone for March and I suspect the new CEO will be already planning his replacement.
28 Nov 2024 08:23:09
Defend him if u want Sam but he only really lost 4 or 5 real starters, none of whom he wanted to stay except maybe Sima who wasn't our player. No manager comes in and buys a complete new squad, they are expected to work with players they have as well as bringing in a few. He's had a full year with most of the team and we're far worse than before, with no signs that we're going to get better. If there were signs of improvement or u could see what he's trying to implement then fair dos, but it's just hit and hope for a moment from Cerny. Name one player who has improved since he came in either in a year ago or even his 4 months excuse.
28 Nov 2024 09:11:21
Would this 'project' be what his extension was for. If so he will be with us for a while yet imo.
28 Nov 2024 09:14:17
Are we also to ignore that the summer was not his 1st transfer window. Do u appoint a manager 2 months before a transfer window, say this one doesn't count, you're not expected to begin your project for another 8 months. That's truly mental.
28 Nov 2024 09:31:54
guys he has had 4 months from start of rebuild, the team last year was not performing, not matter how you try to dress it up. we caught up with celtic because they lost points, we still didn't improve on head to head games with them so it was nothing to do with us. there is a major rebuild, yes i don't see any progress as such but we have also been riddled with injuries to players who would normally be in our starting 11. will PC be the one to take us forward i don't know but i do know to expect miracles in 3 months is just not reasonable.
28 Nov 2024 09:33:46
Kaiser Jefte, barron even dessers improved under him, big soapy as well. I had seen u a few times over the past year saying we needed a full new side so don’t contradict your self now. Of course we are worse off he lost 7-8 players that played in our squad that had experience and some even a bit of quality and has replaced them mostly with young boys or people on lesser wages. I was told at the start of the season a lot of players where disinterested in the club and the support and none of it was directed at pc ( that’s probably changed now ) but when I said this I was shot down and called a tim my understanding was players where annoyed before he came in and after due to changes made to transfer policy, bonus ect. If you think pc has had an easy job your delusional this is probably the worst place as a club we’ve been in since 2012.
28 Nov 2024 09:43:18
Kaiser Soutter and Barron.
28 Nov 2024 11:02:51
Every team in the league sign multiple players in a transfer window yet you don't hear those managers complaining about a rebuild like Clement does. He is utterly clueless, his time was up a few weeks ago. It's only going to get worse.
28 Nov 2024 11:28:49
Dessers? This must be a p*** take, he was a 20+ goal a season striker before PC got a hold of him. No danger has he improved.
Jefte and Barron weren’t here before, how do you know they’ve improved? Mental statement to make with no substance behind this at all.
Big Souttar has improved, he’s not a superstar but he has improved, as has Raskin.
28 Nov 2024 11:42:34
Yes Sam I've agreed whole team needed changed, don't deny it but you can't claim to not having started a project when given a job 8 months ago when he already committed between 8-10 million in Jan. I've never expected him to quickly be challenging Celtic but regardless of rebuild we should be well ahead of the rest not behind half the teams in goals Re improvements OK ill give u Souttar and Barron tho big difference with Soapy is he's finally fit, was always higherly thought of and Barron was excellent for Aberdeen. Are they just 2 of our better performing players or has he actually improved them. I'm not sure.
28 Nov 2024 11:45:23
Last 35 games win percentage is 48% no rangers manager should be allowed to continue with that.
28 Nov 2024 11:45:44
I don’t want Phil or Dessers to fail or do badly just to prove a point.
Phil wants more time and will most likely be given a little more time until the new CEO gets in the door and assesses things. Maybe and I hope fortunes change and performances improve for Phil but convinced I’m not.
Open your eyes regarding Dessers, (not good enough as first choice striker for Rangers but as a squad player maybe has a role) .
28 Nov 2024 11:55:37
every other team signs players that will better than existing. we are signing projects effectively with a hope to lower the wage bill and sell for more in a year or so.
28 Nov 2024 12:10:36
Clearly Barron has improved, has Raskin improved? not in my eyes I seen his quality after just arriving or watching him before he arrived.
28 Nov 2024 12:24:12
Don`t think you can hold up Kuhn as a counter argument that some players take time to settle, he`s flying now but he could hardly get a game last season and some of their fans thought he was useless and they should get rid of him. If anything he is the perfect example of patience paying off.
The difference is they can bring this guy into the club and take time because they have 3 or 4 established wide men so they don`t need to play him . We don`t have that luxury, we are signing players that we need to hit the ground running, so far some have and some definitely haven`t, the guys signed pre Clement are the ones who have no excuses.
28 Nov 2024 12:41:48
Well Barron wasn't a certain start for Aberdeen but he is with Rangers so clearly the lad has improved ?.
28 Nov 2024 12:42:31
Do any of use read what I’ve said? I’ve said I don’t think pc is the man for the job my self but I’m not blinded that someone else changes it I’ve also said dessers shouldn’t be a starter but he’s still a good player to have around untill we have 2 other options up front that are fit and can score. Kaiser dessers was awful before pc came in he still gets hated on purely for his terrible start pc massively turned that around. Jefte was also very raw and week in week out we are starting to see much improvement.
Hell sima didn’t hit his patch of form till pc came in either so he’s definitely improved players. We are short by about 2 maybe 3 body’s on the park, no left winger and 1 fit striker and we need a better centre half all while getting rid of 5-8 squad players and all replacing them this was never going to happen in 2 windows it’ll probably take another 2 to fix it. He’s only committed 4.5million to loan players so far as cortez has to play 70% of games for it to be an obligation.
28 Nov 2024 12:44:09
Gees that’s because that’s what we have to do and that’s how we become sustainable for instance, Ajax, psv, Brugge, anderletch, Basel all teams similar to ourselves they rarely equire established players and the majority of their squads are young players picked up cheap from around the world and sold on for big profit.
28 Nov 2024 12:45:57
Kaiser the project did not start to summer he had a window where we signed 3 loan players 1 with an option to buy and then lost a barrel load of players in the summer having to replace them. The club where a mess last year as I said previously we got the new manager boost but it was always going to come crashing down.
28 Nov 2024 13:45:35
New Chairman and CEO will be in place and announced in the coming days. That will steady the ship once a plan is set in motion. PC has started that plan with the rebuild of the playing squad. It's not going too well at the moment, but changes are still being done. Everyone screamed to get rid of Goldson, Lundstram and Barrasic, it happened. Scott Wright apparently wasn't Rangers class and the fans wanted him moved on, it happened.
Tav is Captain Loser and the fans wanted him out the team, it happened. The same fans that said Lewis Ferguson wasn't good enough for Rangers, neither was MacLean or McKenna. Not to forget McBurnie not good enough either. Unfortunately our fan base is fickle, too quick to point the finger and then shout out their demands. Now we want McInnes in to replace PC. It's just fkn madness talking. There's fans even asking for Moyes . We wanted the rebuild, we're in the rebuild, we need to have faith in the rebuild. Prolific goal scorer and a big strong CB are what I see as priorities.
28 Nov 2024 13:56:57
Yes the main part of work was summer but He signed Diomande and Cortes to be part of the club and committed to decent fees for us so obviously they are part of the rebuild so it had started. That's all I'm saying. U can't just ignore 8months work with a squad and around £8m spent on it. he's just making pathetic excuses. No one has suggested we didn't need work or we weren't in a mess. Your arguing with us, defending him then at the same time say he's not good the man for the job. Who making contradictions?
28 Nov 2024 13:57:55
Sam of orange, you make it sound as if he broke up a title winning team, he moved on deadwood that were being paid over the odds. He’s had Had plenty time to show us what he’s got, it’s not happening now or in a further six months time.
28 Nov 2024 14:07:00
Japser, the thing that gets me the most about McKenna was many on here said he was a very slow cb when it couldn't have been further from the truth.
28 Nov 2024 15:20:55
Mystar that shows you how bad we have become than Barron is one of the 1st names on team sheet and wasn’t a starter for the sheep he wouldn’t get in that midfield just now for Aberdeen. He is vastly overrated by some rangers fans imo. He is a good honest young player but that is all.
We have no creativity from the midfield 3 no one running beyond the striker from CM either and it shows when we play. The wingers are throwing the ball into one man and that’s dessers.
28 Nov 2024 13:06:54
Frank Lampshade got a new job so that's good news.
28 Nov 2024 16:50:37
moffat i would rather have lampard than the muppet clement.
28 Nov 2024 16:59:40
We cannot say Barron has improved under PC, we have no idea how he was last season. He wasn’t a starter as he hadn’t signed a new contract.
29 Nov 2024 08:25:48
Lampard trueblue? - that's the last thing this club needed . Another young guy looking for cash/ limelight and sound bites with no managerial history of note! Just another Wayne Rooney in the making.
29 Nov 2024 22:35:51
Dado he played the last 18 games for the Dons last season so that isn't true.
