Glasgow Rangers Chat

I think a lot of people support the trading model in principle but always find an excuse to say "but not that player, or that player" - Reality is if he does well and there's good money on the table he will and should be sold

That's not the model any more - I'd be looking for a good couple of seasons out of him now and if he stays fit he'll have no shortage of interested clubs at the lower end of EPL/top end of championship

Let's not rush him back and let's do whatever we can to keep him fit for an extended period - Could be a huge asset for the remainder of the season and beyond - Someone that could definitely go back to the EPL for substantial money in the future

If Röhl turns us around I can’t see him waiting too long for an EPL offer to come along - And if he doesn’t, see you here same time next year 😆

Yeah I expect he’ll be out of reach for us next time it comes around

KM is far too busy celebrating another league title 🫣

I'm not trying to answer it 100% big man - Just musing on what he'll be thinking on seeing the news

Yes but that doesn't address the question. If it was just a "poisoned chalice" and he didn't want it he wouldn't have flown to London to meet club execs - So the idea it was because of Thelwell and Stewart is credible - Hence the question what is he thinking now hoddit and doddit have been fired

Why didn't he want the job?

Penny for Steven Gerrard's thoughts this evening - It's widely believed to be the case that he was on the verge of signing but walked way because he didn't want to work with Thelwell - Looking like poor judgement on his part now - Will he be given another chance after the glorious Rohl era ends?

Wouldn't be surprised if there's dodgy dealings with the Chermiti transfer but very much doubt it will ever come to light

Then they're looking at everything in the round in slower time and giving Rohl a chance to take a look at the squad etc with January in mind - At a certain point they've concluded it's time to pull the trigger

Was joking about the Celtic AGM - I'll take Cavenagh at his word: They prioritised the on field stuff which meant getting rid of Martin and getting Rohl in and probably put Thelwell and Stewart on notice around the same time

Maybe the Celtic AGM spooked them into acting 😆👍

Yeah I've given up on Chermiti - His profile might give us a chance of punting him for a few million but he'll never come good here - Not quite given up on Aasgaard but I'd certainly be putting Cameron/Bajrami/Curtis in before him now which says it all really

Fingers crossed - It looks like they got the manager appointment right at the second attempt so let's hope they can do the same with the new CEO and DoF - Otherwise the spotlight will have to turn on them

yep - expect he'll be given a chance to prove himself but I don't think anyone will stand in his way if he wants to follow his old man out the door

I certainly think their performance during the managerial search will have played a part - Thelwell is such an unconvincing person. I can just imagine him getting ran absolute rings around by other DOF's (see also: Youssef Chermiti)

About time. A nepotistic fraud of a DoF & another one of these useless boardroom flunkies. Hopefully the Americans realise that this is gonnae be a proper shift, requiring proper grafters.

Perhaps it took Röhl coming in & pointing out that we sold 2 goalscorers whilst signing rank dug meat.

😆 "I don't want to throw dirt" but also "they're not the people that we thought they were"

I think he can see for themselves that the job they have done hasn't been good enough which is far more important - But they've also offered zero leadership when things have really been tough this year which will have been a factor I'm sure

One problem at a time Ally, one problem at a time...... In fairness Cavenagh acknowledged that the original appointment was wrong and they've learned loads since coming into the club. If him and Marathe get the next one wrong then the spotlight moves to them for sure.

For me it's nothing personal with either Stewart or Thelwell - But I found it increasingly annoying that they were both so obviously not up to the job and yet there didn't seem to be any consequences - This news has really reaffirmed my faith in the current ownership group

Yeeeehaaaaw! ❤️ ❤️

Christmas has come early!

Absolutely brutal comments from Cavenagh as well - There were rumblings that something was up this morning but this is HUGE

Amazing news - The ownership not fucking about in dealing with poor performance. Now let's get some adults in and crack on

PS - Beale, Gio and Clement all won their first 4 league games by the way. So we won’t be carried away

Röhl will know this of course, he’s no mug - And he’ll know that he needs to find a way of improving underlying performances quickly if we’re going to stay alive long enough to get to January and get some help in the door

Another positive weekend that sees us gaining ground on Hearts and again and keeping pace with Celtic - But a nagging feeling that our domestic form is unsustainable which is confirmed by the underlying numbers: We had a negative xGD in 2 of our last 4 league games

I agree - We were probably due one but we got away with it for sure
