I don't like the new way football is operating with sporting directors, technical directors and head of recruitments. Clubs needlessly putting out big salaries in theses areas, give me old school football where managers identify players through the clubs scouting network and managers are managing.

Sco it has been the European structure for more than 10 years and every champions league winner and winner of a top 5 league has this structure in place.

It beggars believe. What do you think put us into admin before, jobs for the lads and endless chasing the bottomless expectations of our fanbase.

We need to wise up and understand that structure is there to protect our long term interests, if you let it go at the first sign of challenge then you may as well pack it all up.

I don't think it is the structure, but ygat structure needs the right people in the roles. I think we do not have that.

Jfm, you've hit the nail on the head mate.

Correct jfm.

The thing that really boils my p***, is the fact that the inevitability of RMs sacking must have given these tits ample opportunity to make his replacement quicker and easier than if were a snap decision. Surely this absolute circus should have been avoided if the groundwork had been properly carried out in the background. Seething how the standards at our club have fallen off the cliff in recent years.

Correct Del, whoever they wanted should of been sounded out weeks ago so they could of been put in place within a couple of days, this 80 interviews to god knows how many managers or coaches never worked last time and has not helped now, its mistake after mistake and just kept the anger from Martin bubbling along.

I know this has almost certainly already been said regarding our potential next manager, with people asking the question "what have they done as a manager" (at least from the lists doing the rounds just now) . What had Gerrard done?

He has been lauded in some quarters as an almost messiah-like figure. I know that the Martin reign was an absolute disaster and flak has very rightly been directed at the people involved in hiring him. I was completely underwhelmed by Martin but got behind him and gave him my suppprt until it was obvious his character and tactics were harming our club.

Everyone should be entitled to an opinion and of course can say if they have a preference of a specific new manager for whatever reason but I don't agree that we should be completely writing anyone off before they have even stepped into Ibrox.

I remember many had their doubts over Gerrard first time round and that turned out okay in the end.

Agreed 👍.

Gutted that SG is not coming in but if he doesn't want it I don't want him. I wasn't aware that Rohl was assistant manager at Bayern and assistant coach at the national team. Bayern don't employ fools and I think a lot of us were excited in the summer about Anceloti, Rohl has better credentials than him. Sure he has only worked at the basket case of Sheffield Wednesday but I would take Rohl before McIness but it's all about opinions.

Andrew Cavenagh and Paraag Marathe are allowing STEWART and THELWELL to ruin the club!

Are they all Celtic supporters, sorry STEWART will support Aberdeen.

Clear out needed.

Tb, is that Kevin and Micheal?

Glad he withdrew said from Martin getting sacked he's as big a gamble as any left us high and dry to go to villa ****ed it got sacked went to Saudi for a massive payday got sacked and other than us haven't seen his name linked to too many clubs but I'd like to see muscat appointed even if it's later once he's won another title with his current club just shows he's got different morals and standards to Gerrard.

12 Oct 2025 12:24:15
90% of managers fail in the EPL and Gerrard lost dressing room, as for Saudi he took over the Motherwell of their league, let's be honest any manager going into our hot seat will have failed somewhere unless it's their first job.
