I'm hearing that we have went back to Gerrard and there is a chance steward and the other guy thelwell will be sacked if Gerrard agrees terms with Rangers. Don't know if there is any truth in this as I read it on X which is a really toxic place these days even I thought Jesus while reading some of the back and forth.
13 Oct 2025 12:20:05
If the board think the club are better without these 2 and they are hampering the clubs ability to progress, then I think they would deal with that. I don't think a candidate that sat in an interview would result in his new bosses being sacked to make room for him effectively as much as I want them out. If Gerrard just wanted more say as head coach then amending the roles would make more sense than fully clearing out.
However, Cavanagh and Marathe have started their tenure poorly (and wouldn't surprise be if they tried to find some scapegoats for the thin ice they are sitting on. I think they are all clueless/ weak given the nonsense they've produced until I'm proven otherwise.
13 Oct 2025 12:23:15
From what I understand, out of the three that remains there are two preferred candidates that take us down slightly different paths.
One is more focused on short term stability, while the other is more aligned to the vision from the outset of the season.
As I said previously, really intrigued to see what route we take.
13 Oct 2025 12:23:44
Someone on here yesterday touched upon us going back to Gerrard but I can't see it happening now.
13 Oct 2025 12:24:00
If it's not to much trouble bud where u seeing or hearing this?.
13 Oct 2025 12:24:15
We did go back in for him and he said no again.
13 Oct 2025 12:24:44
Obviously I'm not paying attention, need dementia testing again??.
13 Oct 2025 12:24:47
Also, i don't go anywhere near twitter or X. its beyond toxic.
13 Oct 2025 12:25:37
BjB i hope it's true but seems highly highly unlikely.
13 Oct 2025 12:27:38
Seems absolutely unlikely, you aren't uprooting a brand new structure 4 months in to facilitate Gerrard. Simply won't happen.
I stay away from X and the likes for that very reason just endless vitriol and negativity at your fingertips.
13 Oct 2025 12:28:11
Not being funny but to sack a CEO and director of football as well as the other roles despite how we feel about the actual people is utter stupidity, cost more money to do so and we'd be doing it for what Gerrard? Look at it without his 1 league title, what has he actually done to command such a say on how the club is run and have control? Nothing, everywhere he's worked has been under the same structures DoF at the top making signings. Every club has these structures now, Pep doesn't have that control, Carlo Ancelotti didn't have that control but if it was them asking I'd consider it.
He's knocked us back twice in 6 months, time to move on and forget about him.
13 Oct 2025 12:29:01
They fans will know nothing about the men involved, a little research tells me Rohl isn't as bad a choice as a large percentage of Rangers fans are thinking now, the toxicity has reached a new level, I really didn't think that could be possible BigJBear.
13 Oct 2025 12:34:43
Think that happened over the weekend and it was still a no.
13 Oct 2025 12:58:08
Stewart and Thelwell will either have to relinquish certain aspects of power and responsibility or be sacked if Gerrard is to return. That's the problem. It's not about timing, Gerrard would not have flew in if it was about timing.
Gerrard wants control of certain aspects, Thelwell and Stewart do not want to give Gerrard control of those aspects. The board have a huge and important decision to make.
13 Oct 2025 13:03:34
Something about the Gerrard knocking us back in the summer as well as now doesn't make sense to me. If they were going for a head coach rather than a manager role, they may well have "sounded him out" and by all accounts he ruled himself out right away whether this was due to the job or personal circumstances .
So, if the role was still going to be head coach, which he didn't want, then why did we approach him again and why did it take so long for the approach to fail . Surely it would be a short conversation, Is it still Head Coach, Yes .
Is it still the same management structure, Yes . Then I'm not interested . It would take about 10 minutes to find out that Gerrard sees himself as a manager and not working in our current (failed ) structure.
13 Oct 2025 13:04:37
Short term stability until Gerrard is free to come in the summer, Ehl?
13 Oct 2025 13:27:54
The thing that intrigues me is that, prior to Martin, when Rohls name was mentioned, lots of us on here were actually saying he'd be a good appointment. What has changed?
13 Oct 2025 13:34:50
Star - the problem is; most fans have already made up their mind that Rohl will be a flop, therefore, He'll never succeed.
The most toxic fanbase I've ever seen.
13 Oct 2025 13:35:49
Short term one I hope.
13 Oct 2025 13:49:40
My star, I just think the fans are exhausted.
This season has taken us to a new low.
13 Oct 2025 14:28:26
Ehl what path do you think we will choose and what one would be your preferred?
13 Oct 2025 13:15:46
What are the 3 manager's names it's between EHL ?.
13 Oct 2025 14:48:52
EHL can I assume from your reply above that the two candidates are Rohl and Bilic as they meet the criteria you mentioned or am I putting two and two together to get five?
Of the two I would prefer Rohl but I can understand if they go for the short term solution in Bilic. It will be interesting to see what route they go down.
Quick question, if it is Rohl do you think the fans would support him if the results were not great initially but we could see an obvious improvement in playing style?
13 Oct 2025 15:15:06
Would this mean it's down to rohl or billic then EHL with Gerrard making the 3?
13 Oct 2025 14:43:01
Athole, I think the issue most fans have is how the RM tenure played out. He's another unknown quantity. Rightly or wrongly it feels the same to most as there are a few parallels. I'm on the fence but understand the sentiment.
13 Oct 2025 14:54:52
Fans won't know anything about men involved but a few days ago you as a fan said done deal ?.
13 Oct 2025 14:56:09
2 different paths, as long as the successful candidate isn't leading us down the garden path.
13 Oct 2025 16:13:22
EHL Ferguson ?? short term stability.
13 Oct 2025 16:24:16
You will never let me down with your clueless dribble man, rather amusing, I said i was told it was done?.
