I've stayed pretty quite on manager
What I'm led to believe
Loputegui rejected to meet us
We met gerrard in Paris
We met rose in Munich
There is massive interest in lampard from the 49s.
No one has been offered the post
Panel is stiensson and Stewart, and an outsider from 49s recruitment, so all them moaning about our bord, they r not making the decision yet.
10 May 2025 17:42:17
Cheers for info John.
10 May 2025 17:42:41
So it's Frank you bet then and he is still in play offs.
10 May 2025 17:43:02
I would take Lampard over Gerrard. I don't like the idea of going backwards when we're about to start an exciting new era at Rangers.
10 May 2025 17:49:57
Very interesting John. Good information mate.
10 May 2025 17:51:25
Clearly the manager in a job yiu refered to was lampard John
Of the 3 names surely if affordable you'd get rose but if 49s were consulted on SD I don't see why it's diff on a manager unless there's some resistance on takeover John.
10 May 2025 17:53:42
Also why would there be 2 representatives of 49s on the team looking for a manager if 2 of them have no say. Don't doubt your info John but it does seem strange. John how are you recovering. Yiu getting stronger by the day I hope.
10 May 2025 18:06:07
As said, it's Gerrard and it always was.
10 May 2025 18:07:24
Would take Lampard over Gerrard.
Proven track record of developing Youth.
10 May 2025 18:08:01
I for 1 would be happy with Lampard over a lot of other names I've seen
Although he's had a pretty up and down managerial career I think in fairness to him he has faced difficult circumstances at Chelsea and Everton, done well at Chelsea 1st time round with top4 finish and got to FA CUP final @ Everton he was up against it from the off with FFP.
10 May 2025 18:10:39
Sorry did you not say Gerrard wasn't on the list before?
10 May 2025 18:14:12
Yes John that's the 3 I listed a week or 2 ago. Some told me it was nonsense. Interesting few weeks ahead….
10 May 2025 18:15:22
Lampard is 66/ 1 watch his price drop.
10 May 2025 18:26:29
Im both bord and board get the manager in place. Enough.
10 May 2025 18:27:58
Yes storm it is lampard was 66/ 1 yesterday
One Walter why would u het rose, I've clearly stated lampard is 49s preferred option, where do I or anyone say 49s have no say, they r leading search for manager, and the identify thelwell.
Ps has stated the panel doing interviews will make a recommendation to thelwell who will make the appointment, all seems very clear to me.
10 May 2025 18:28:48
Recovering really well, but no football this week.
10 May 2025 18:29:20
I would have thought that Thelwell would have had a part to play as he will have to work with the manager. I am happy to wait for the official announcement anyway.
10 May 2025 18:35:44
Very interesting post, John. On that basis, there won't be any announcement anytime soon.
10 May 2025 18:39:14
John nice to know the info I heard about Gerrard has real merit to it then.
what do you make of Lampard John?
if it was indeed him infact if indeed any of Gerrard or lampard I reckon fans are going to have to be patient again and let them build a successful squad I think either or with the right back room team and the right recruitment I think we could have Ibrox rocking again and be a right force once more I never did give Gerrard the recognition he deserved given how our transfers went and how it took time to build a squad
I honestly think him or lampard would do very well given the time to do it.
10 May 2025 18:42:17
John i honestly would take frank lampard and think he'd be a good appointment for us, if indeed he was to be appointed our next manager ???.
10 May 2025 18:42:45
I would still like us to go down the German route, but can see the attraction to the 49rs in lampard and Stevie g, the main one would definitely be their names, pulling power for players and inward investment.
10 May 2025 18:49:10
John unless I. misread think I misread your post John. As far as Lampard is concerned I'd assume not happened because of playoffs but time will tell yiur 1 of many. postetz who've said a diff manager so I hope it's not lampard i'd rather Rose or gerrsrd.
10 May 2025 18:54:17
John i didn't say you'd bet Rose is pointed out imo of the 3 names we are interested in if affordable i'd go get Rose. lampard I just don't get i'd rather SG he may have a point to. prove.
10 May 2025 18:57:11
Stig, I'm not a lampard fan, but understand why the Americans would like him.
I understand they did not expect Coventry still to be going for premier league, imo if he achieves that he is not leaving for us.
10 May 2025 19:13:43
One Walter if I'd to pick one off three it would be lampard, if he goes up with Coventry honk I'd prefer rose
Respect your choice.
10 May 2025 19:16:28
John who would you like as manager.
10 May 2025 19:36:59
I would honestly be happy with any of the 3 you mention John ie. Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard and Marco Rose ?John, hypothetically speaking if Coventry City fail to go up via the play offs, do you think lampard would accept the Rangers manager's job if we came calling for him? ?.
10 May 2025 19:39:08
No need to worry about that John, Coventry's season finishes on Tuesday.
10 May 2025 20:29:46
U may be right my star.
10 May 2025 20:32:58
Scott i know you said you prefer frank lampard over steven gerrard as our new manager but let me firstly state i wouldn't mind which one we appointed as i like both? However let me add the gerrard knows what it takes as Rangers manager because he's been our manager for 3 and a half years, so has the upper hand on that score, but that's not me saying frank lampard can't be very good for us ? Very intriguing/ interesting indeed ?.
10 May 2025 20:49:13
Sunderland are favourites to progress after winning first leg 1-2 away to Coventry.
10 May 2025 20:54:57
Lampard does like us.
10 May 2025 21:19:09
So does Steven Gerrard like us Wilkinssscreamer ???.
10 May 2025 22:28:03
John did you not say that the manager you thought was being talked of didn't excite you. I can see why given some of the other names being mentioned
also mair turns and claims of I told you so from others on here the I care to count ?.
11 May 2025 03:47:00
Scott
I'm with you. Think FL way more proven manager than SG.
11 May 2025 06:07:00
Angus go and get a game of trivial pursuit pal ?.
