GinRummy Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 Why? He’s won one league title in a two horse race. Do folk actually rate him outside the Daily Record, Sportscene bubble. Quote
Largo Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 Not a chance, stay at Ibrox it's a safe passage to Anfield . Quote
Mikey1874 Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 He's said a few things this season that suggest he has taken Rangers as far as he can. Quote

JackLadd Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 I hope he stays because he's being found out this season. Don't rate Sevco at all for the budget as Malmo and Sparta have proved. Quote
Holtie Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 He’s pissed off at Rangers - no money in the summer transfer window. I think he will be off as soon as something interesting comes along. Newcastle Utd ……possibly! Quote

Herbert. Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 Where did you see that? I think Newcastle will go for a big name, someone that's done more than better Neil Lennon. Quote
A_A wehatethehibs Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 Good luck to him. And good luck to them, IMO it sends the right message from the new owners coming into the game, going for a young ambitious English manager who’s managed a big British club. And you don’t get much more premier league knowledge and experience than Steven Gerrard. From his point of view it’s not an offer that could be turned down, with the backing that’s going to come in. All round, be happy to see this as hopefully wheels totally come off for Rangers with Hearts to go there and win to set the cat among the pigeons. Craig Levein to take over Rangers to the end of the season, good shout for them. Good experience knows the league. Quote
Jeffros Furios Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 I could see them chucking silly money for Conte Quote
steve123 Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 Nope because Newcastle if they are sensible will appoint one of their own or somebody neutral. Quote

gnasher75 Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 Will be surprised if Gerrard goes to Newcastle. Too much of a risk of a relegation ruining his reputation down south. Even with money to spend in January. Not sure Newcastle will go for Gerrard either. Much more likely to go for an experienced Premiership/top level European coach - a big name manager to head up their project. Quote

The Maroon Jacket Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 Steve Bruce is doing a good job, just give him the dough Quote
Rocky jamboa Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 They will go for a bigger name and someone with a better managerial CV than Gerrard. Apparently putting £250m into the team. There is talk of Klopp speaking to Barca so Gerrard to Liverpool may be an option. Quote
Newton51 Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 Gerrard probably an ideal candidate. Probably too early for them to go for a conte with how poor the squad is now and no European football Quote

SE16 3LN Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 They'll get a huge name with a huge budget, although they need someone now to steady the ship and make sure they don't get relegated. Not sure the top names will want that responsibility. Bruce out within days I'd guess. Quote
Pans Jambo Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 (edited) Anyway, even if hes not going to Newcastle, be nice for the red top comics to unsetlle them for a change prior to our meeting through there. Hope theres some truth in it though. (If its not true, can we tip off the Sun & Daily Record anyway…to stir some shite up?) Edited October 7, 2021 by Pans Jambo Quote
John Findlay Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 New Newcastle owners. Right who do we think the fans would prefer. Antonio Conte Zinedine Zidane Steven Gerrard? Every Geordie said. Steven Gerrard..............not. Quote
Have You Heard Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 Bit risky for Newcastle and Gerrard. He's had one consistent season that had a lot of mitigating circumstances with fans being locked out etc, and for Gerrard aye there will be money there but it depends how it's spent. Quote
Rocky jamboa Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 I wonder if they'd look to bring Keegan back? Been out of football for a while but would be a popular appointment with the fans. Quote

Joey Barton, Jonathan Woodgate, Stuart Pierce, maybe Scott Parker. Obviously Shearer. Quote

He said before he likes to go to teams that are in somewhat of nerd but ambitious. Dortmund and Liverpool kind of show this. He'd need assurances that financially Theresa plan tho. I can see him there. He'd go there or a Madrid, can't see him at r Madrid. Newcastle should go for Simone. Quote
Penrices left boot Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 I rate Gerrard. Think he builds to a style and has done well with rangers. Quote
Diadora Van Basten Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 I think Gerard will be rated in comparison to Lampard. Good but not top notch. Quote

The Gorgie Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 When you have 300 billion behind you, you don't go for a inexperienced manager like Gerrard. Quote

Constant improvement and had some cracking results and performances in Europe. That wage bill is a good bit lower than Celtic's as well, you could argue he done well to beat a team with a far larger wage to the league. No one looking at him will bother too much about cup performances in Scotland. They'll look at him bettering celtic in the league and European games imo. He'll also go to the Premiershio at some point I reckon, just a matter of what time and what club. Edited October 7, 2021 by Smith's right boot Quote
Armageddon Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 They’ll get whoever they want, and the first appointment will be a statement of intent. If it’s Gerrard then that's hillarious If it’s Thomas Tuchel then football is fecked as they’re just going to spend billions each year Quote

Add the Lennon/Lawwell clown show into the mix and that bridges the salary gap and more. I doubt he'd last beyond 4 months in the EPL myself unless it's Liverpool as they'd keep him longer given hero status. Liverpool is the only club I'd go to if him for that reason alone. He's no Jurgen btw. Quote

Locky Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 Pre-takeover, yeah I'd say that's a shout. But I'd imagine the Saudi's will want someone a bit better than Gerrard. Quote

So he won a two horse race with a huge warchest. Robbie Neilson would have won things with that backing. Quote
Kyle1874 Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 If I was a Newcastle fan I would want Marco rose with endless money I think he would challenge on all fronts Quote
CostaJambo Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 I couldn't really care less who Newcastle end up with but if it means unsettling Sevco for the next 10 days or so then I'll be delighted if Gerrard's name stays in the frame. Quote
