Danny rohl now 1/100 I've posted the image. Another mistake by thelwell and co!
08 Oct 2025 23:07:15
That is Betfair, a betting exchange, it means absolutely nothing.
08 Oct 2025 23:11:23
Just seen it
1/100 on to be next Rangers manager
Gerrard 2/7 on
If it's Rohl hope everyone will get behind him and see what he can do
But If it goes south fast I will not have anytime nor patience for this new board
Can't afford to gamble and lose.
08 Oct 2025 23:21:53
I hope you are correct trueblue. I just find it on the bookies stop bets and then I see that haha. He will fit thelwell's profile. Another yes man.
08 Oct 2025 23:24:03
Thestigno1, it's not Rohl ???.
08 Oct 2025 23:24:18
Think that's an error mate, I did see it, best at most bookies Rohl has moved way out at around 25/1 to 33/1.
SG at best 1/3 and a couple at 1/4.
08 Oct 2025 23:29:21
Out of curiosity, what are we basing the Rohl a 'yes' man on?
What I know of him, you couldn't get further from a 'yes' man.
08 Oct 2025 23:32:17
Kirkcaldy out of curiosity how do you know Danny Röhl is a yes man when you probably hadn't heard of him until the summer?
08 Oct 2025 23:36:13
Cause someone has put 10 grand on Rohl.
08 Oct 2025 23:45:31
Correct EHL. Too many willing to write off a young coach.
If only wee had the foresight of other nations.
Julien Nagelsman may have just got enough experience to get the role at Orkney if he was managing in Scotland.
I wouldn't have said Bayern München were a project side either.
08 Oct 2025 23:47:17
No i base him as a yes man as gerrard wanted more power than thelwell wanted to give him. Rohl will work with the squad he gets given simple as that. What has he done to warrant the job? About the same as martin if not less. Assistant at bayern, Germany, rb leipzeg, Southampton and then manager of Sheffield wedensday. So yeah he has less of a managerial c. v than martin. This will be a massive mistake in my opinion. We needed someone who knows Scottish football!
09 Oct 2025 00:02:19
Stingo, That is clearly a miss print, you ain't getting the favourite at 1/ 100 and second favourite at 2/ 7 mate.
09 Oct 2025 00:04:54
Looks like Rohls a No go man lol
The owners are meeting with Gerrard in London this week,
If he can get the setup, deal and backroom team he wants then he is our new manager, apparently Mcallister and defoe are ready and keen if the deal is finalised, still think stewart will stay but both thellwells will be let go once that deal concludes in Stevens favour.
Seeing we have a makeshift defence full of loanees and final year players Stevie will need guarantees there will be a decent winter transfer window kitty 20-30 mill to make changes to the defence mainly, as it stands currently we have only Butland, Nsiala, Fernandez, Sterling left at the end of this season from the current defensive line up, so serious work needs done there as opposed to our midfield and attack, one things clear Gerrard inherits a far stronger squad than when he came to us the first time.
So he has a good head start and there is good potential with the players we do own, of course this all depends on the talks and deal being finalised and i believe it will be.
Good times ahead troops.
09 Oct 2025 00:06:10
Just had a look that is false, half a dozen others slightly under or slightly over 2/ 1, Gerrard 2/ 7 and Rohl 1/ 100 that is clearly a miss print.
09 Oct 2025 01:21:05
RFC, 10 grand to win a nicker, the guy must be tripping.
09 Oct 2025 01:31:53
My mistake 10
Grand to win 100
… brains of Britain. Eh . is that how he makes his money.? ten grand wins you one hundred pound, you should have posted earlier about that ten grand wager, as i'd have covered it .
09 Oct 2025 02:22:19
Its probably the best time for a risk appointment the league is already gone you could give someone a go for rest of season as long as we have a cheap get out.
However i think rohl has an even worse cv than martin playera need to be able to look up tk manager for either what he's done or just strength of character like a walter souness or advocaat.
09 Oct 2025 03:23:26
EHL our fan base is convinced he's Russel Martin 2.0 because *Checks notes* he's managed in the same league as Martin.
09 Oct 2025 03:40:16
Rohl is another that would need to hit ground running would be given no time from fans…most don't want project manager. Stability needed.
If Gerrard turns up and these players are still terrible we will know that thelwell and co have made an arse if it because we know Gerrard can work up here.
Let's go.
09 Oct 2025 03:55:37
Going off what happened at Sheff Wed, I'd say he's anything but a yes man!
09 Oct 2025 06:33:55
Dadab he is not a yes man because he had a dispute when he wasn't paid? If I was a yes man and you didn't pay me i'd be pissed off too in all honesty.
09 Oct 2025 07:13:18
Asathor, The reason is because this ain't the time for a young inexperienced manager, that is my reason anyway, I don't want Rohl anywhere near Ibrox right now, not only me as the poll says that as well.
09 Oct 2025 07:35:39
Other managers would need more time to implement there style the last 6-8 months I've had enough of that ? when we were beating teams 3-0 4-0 Gerrard was not happy saying we needed to do more be more clinical imo rhol comes of the same cloth as rm where a draw is ok at Rangers a draw is never good enough Stevie g will set the standards.
09 Oct 2025 07:43:22
That 1/ 100 for Röhl is from betting exchange not a bookies it's different, from what I've read over different sites the consensus seems that Röhl would be plan B should SG deal go tits up at last second - that may well be nonsense but i guess we'll know for definite by the end of the week.
09 Oct 2025 07:58:00
RFC that is not Danny Rohl. He worked at Bayern where Ben a league and cup double isn't good enough if it's not followed by the champions league.
He certainly would not be happy with draws.
09 Oct 2025 08:18:37
Still amazes me how blinkered posters become when debating their preferred choices.
In reality there's probably very little between Gerard and Rohl, other than personal preference.
We aren't in a position where we can attract a Head Coach with no cons - in fact, we're probably not even on a position where we can attract a Head Coach with more Pros than Cons.
So we need to take a risk.
But it seems that so many are completely overlooking many of Gerards Cons and completely exaggerating, or falsifying, many of Rohls cons.
09 Oct 2025 08:31:24
Fairy dust unicorns and out of fresh air EHL?.
09 Oct 2025 08:59:29
Correct again EHL.
09 Oct 2025 09:03:43
Question EHL will Rohl get the players instant respect? Like Gerrard will.
09 Oct 2025 09:12:15
That is a big factor right now.
09 Oct 2025 09:18:27
My star exactly that. Feel gerrard will also get more time with fans if don't go right straight away. We need everybody behind the team and pulling in the right direction. Your not getting that with rohl imo. Av said sg not my 1st choice but more i think about it he's exactly what we need just now.
09 Oct 2025 09:23:19
He should Mystar. If he's the new head coach and the man that will be picking the team, then if that doesn't get the players instant respect, then it says more about our group of players.
09 Oct 2025 09:30:52
Rohl would have to earn the players respect, some like us will not know very much about him, Gerrard get instant respect from everyone inside that dressing room now Bearblue, I wouldn't have had a problem his Rohl is the summer but definitely not now, few loses and it goes paired very fast.
09 Oct 2025 09:40:17
The club and the squad need that star power factor right now, and Danny Rohl cannot provide that.
They need someone who understands the demands, expectations, and values of Glasgow Rangers, and Danny Rohl cannot provide that.
They need someone who has been there, done it, knows what to expect, and is ready to do it again, and Danny Rohl cannot provide that.
They need someone who has shown they have the nutsack to survive in the powder keg of old firm football without crumbling, and Danny Rohl cannot provide that.
No one is saying Steven Gerrard doesn't have any cons. They're saying that after Russell Martin, there are certain fundamental needs that must be met, and Danny Rohl cannot meet them.
This is no time for a project coach or another experiment, or a safe and controllable option for Kevin Thelwell.
This is a time for Steven Gerrard, Gary Mac et al to return to the club fired and and ready to go.
09 Oct 2025 09:57:39
EHL! Read the room mate! Which is something you don't seem to be taking on board.
Placing Rohl in as Head Coach is like Thewell signing his son! Throwing him to the lions den! His task is immediately 10 times harder. That reason alone makes it a different kind of risk! But a huge one all the same.
In some respects Cavanagh and Parathe are now playing damage limitation. And thank God SG is around otherwise that task is incredibly intricate and fraught with danger.
I also think you are totally negating the presence that SG will bring! He is a leader! There is NO leader with Rangers right now top to bottom! There is no face! Nothing! And that's paramount in our rudderless aimless floating around as a club we are currently doing!
This has nothing to do with fans overlooking the next big thing, or being backward in thinking, or anything like that.
It's sensible, safer than most options and will bring lost of fans right back in.
Ibrox will be jumping when ( if ) he arrives. That will say it all!
Nobody else gets a fanfare! Nobody! Nobody that takes the job that is.
Timing in life is everything! You're either on it or you're off it! Rohl isn't on it…. SG wasn't not long ago!
Now he is! And it's right for us both! That type of unity is needed right from the off! This choice delivers it in spades!
09 Oct 2025 10:00:54
Ehl the biggest thing or one of the biggest things we need here is the fans on board woth the decision.
Gerrard gives that and Rohl doesn't.
Also knowing Scottish football, the away grounds the low block. The demands the euro nights the way tobget the best out of players who aren't top level and so on and so on.
Gerrard had been here before and that familiarise SO So important right now dor is.
I think that's what makes him the stand out candidate.
09 Oct 2025 10:05:59
My star that is the biggest reason i think sg will do well, to lift the players, look at a few clips of players body language when martin was speaking to them. Big what faces. They w ill take every word sg says
Just for the record though, i think rohl, muscat, mcinness or bilic would also do well and certainly wouldn't be upset if any of them were appointed. The biggest problem we had is gone now.
09 Oct 2025 10:31:14
NCblue, My reason for wanting Gerrard mate.
09 Oct 2025 10:42:14
Ehl c'mon there is no common sense whatsoever here. I don't blame the fans they are desperate because of the monumental feck up with Martin and SG is the safest option but writing roll off is just them being snobs and it's the same people that come out with the snobs patter when signing Scottish players oh the irony ?.
09 Oct 2025 12:34:38
EHL I'm not decrying Rohl but it seems to me we already took a risk appointing Martin, a young coach with a certain philosophy which maybe would have worked long term but not at a club like Rangers . We then have to look at what will work at our club and be realistic on what works best for us. The fact is that all our best managers have been strong personalities who can manage players and cope with all that surrounds the biggest club in Scotland. Gerrard has shown that he can do that, so if he's the lowest risk appointment then that's who we need . We need to get back challenging our friends across the city who have been allowed to be far too successful and who never appoint young head coaches. They know what is needed and stick to it.
09 Oct 2025 12:46:30
GDog, I'm not misreading the room - just stating that Gerard also comes with an considerable element of risk - which is something that many seem to be overlooking.
As I said in my post, there probably not a great deal of difference between the candidates - other than personal choice.
Given the state of our club and our league, whoever we appoint will be come with significant risk - even Gerard.
09 Oct 2025 13:47:34
I agree with you entirely Gdog. Spot on mate. There is a big difference EHL. One is an unknown to Ibrox and an u exiting prospect for most. The other will garnish a fabulous welcome back and is a known quantity, loved by most. Big big difference. c'mon Stevie G. put us out our misery. The Colonel.
