Ross. Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Reading that the 4 year deal has a break clause that either can apply after the first year. Precautionary measure for both I would guess. Cannot see any sense in this from Gerrard's side. He is at best 3rd choice and is taking over an absolute basket case of a club with a fan base, who despite saying otherwise now, will expect immediate success in every competition they compete in. It will take a miracle to live up to their expectations. From the Rangers POV it makes sense. No one is talking about last weekend or the fact they are in a fight for 2/3/4 place in the league, no one is talking about the ongoing financial f*ckwittery of Dave King and the fact 2 directors have walked out this week, and the season ticket renewals are now guaranteed when many would have been considering chucking it.

sergie's no1 fan Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 They can if another club wins the league. Most hilariously if it's Hibs under Lennon. A four year deal is outstanding if he's pish, but it has unfortunately derailed the SHREE YEAR DEAL posts I'm sure many posters had lined up.

Bairnardo Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 To be genuine for a second... For the life of me I cant understand why the Rangers fans are happy with this appointment following a spell of humiliation that clearly points to the fact that a manager of considerable experience will be required to get the better of Celtic. At best, I could see the fans saying ok its a pretty bold gamble but give the laddie a chance, but I simply cannot understand the joy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the kind of salary they are probably giving Gerrard they probably could have lured a more experienced manager like a Chris Coleman or even a David Moyes.

Ivo den Bieman Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Stevie G Sevco 7088 a year contract predicted developments in the next year: 1. Stevie G "does a Barton" and woefully underestimates the standard of Scottish football. Attempts to steal a march on Celtic by importing most of the Liverpool U-18 squad then hastily reverse ferrets after an early bodying at Hamilton Accies, bringing Kenny Miller out of cryogenic freezing. 2. unseemly fracas in an "exclusive" West End brasserie involving a platinum blond with glowing fake tan. 3. Early ejection from the Europa League. Vardar Skopje win 6-0 on aggregate and field fringe players in the second, home leg. 4. Sitting fourth in the table at the beginning of November, Stevie G issues a statement a propos of not very much about "honouring the culture and traditions of this great football club". Media slavers dutifully and early signs of the smouldering bigoted Krakatoas on Rangers Media erupting, are quelled, for the moment. 5. Jim Traynor puts an ill-advised Bill Sturth-morphing-into-Walter-then-Stevie Gee VR graphic on the Ibrox screens, launching just at the same time as a stuttering 1-1 home draw with St. Mirren. Only the proximity of Remembrance Sunday keeps the chorus of boos in check- just. 6. Stevie Gee attempts to re-build morale by organising a paintballing Christmas Party. The exercise turns into a costly disaster after Tavernier's left testicle is ruptured by a direct hit from Lee Wallace's spudgun, leading to weeks of pornhub-themed gifs on twitter and pie and bovril. 7. A soul-destroying 0-3 reverse to Celtic at Ibrox on New Year's Day, with Stevie Gee very publically having failed to address Rangers' defensive failings. Brendan Rogers reads the paper throughout the game. First molten lava appears from the bigoted Krakatoas online. Board promises to re-shape the squad for the fourteenth time in eighteen months, with a warchest capable of signing the reserve goalkeeper from Barnsley and some guy from Grays Athletic. 8. The statements from the Union bears, Vanguard Bears, Club 1872, the Orange Order, the Global Federation of Staunch Presbyterians, begin to pile up in the media like unsolicited Liberal Democrat leaflets. The Ibrox doorman, having plastered his Stevie G selfies all over his social media on the new gaffer's first day, has now deleted all pictures from the internet and can't meet the manager's eye. The Loving Cup continues to gather dust in the trophy cabinet. 9. Stevie Gee calls Jurgen Klopp for advice and is met by nothing more than hollow laughter from the hirsute German. 10. Rangers stumble to a humiliating 2-4 defeat at first division Greenock Morton at Cappielow, in the Scottish Cup fourth round. Stevie Gee's tactically laconic yet practically unworkable 3-4-1-2 formation baffles his youthful charges. Kenny Miller and Lee Wallace call some friends in the media who duly run articles they wrote nearly twenty years ago about Paul Le Guen, only substituting PLG's name for the former England captain's. 11. Stevie Gee's mates on Football Focus mutter about conspiracies and how he was never going to get a fair crack of the whip "up there". Stevie Gee's enemies leak stories to the media questioning the rookie boss' mental wellbeing. 12. Stevie Gee blown away like a reed in the wind after a) Rangers lose at home to bottom of the table and struggling Dundee for the second time in a season and b) funds are not available for a mid season break in Lanzarote, with a choice of only Troon or Ardrossan beach on the table. Stevie Gee concludes that Rangers are "not serious" and returns south, being paid for three and a half years from Sevco 7088's funds, to be a youth team coach at Liverpool again. In the background, Mike Ashley considers a bargain basement bid for the club as DK is finally forced to admit publically that he has no money left, and puts the club up for sale. Candidates from Alan Shearer to Davor Šuker are rumoured, without any basis in fact, to be keen on "taking the reins" at Ibrox. Jimmy Nicholl is recalled from his caravan in Burntisland to see out the season in the least humiliating fashion possible. Rinse... and repeat....

A reporting Scotland with both the newsreader and the weather forecaster sporting shades of royal blue. Coincidence? I think not. A new light/royal blue moon is arising over Scotland. It really IS all about The Rangers. And the family murder story that has been their main headline for weeks is suddenly relegated to second place. Nice set of priorities from Pacific Quay.
