Cannae find a pair to fit me now.....

I guess you missed the sarcasm

I'm more Stone Island jacket, Burberry hat / scarf combo.

Hahaha I'm sure I'm a little old to be called a ned.....

If Clement was making strides (as Gerrard did) then I'd agree. However, all evidence points to us regressing and regressing rapidly. With the budget Clement has been given, there are no excuses for our performances, points tally and results. Rangers Football Club should not be "hoping' that Clement can change things for the better. The league has gone (in truth it was gone weeks ago, probably after our latest embarrassing defeat at Parkhead). If the only reason for keeping him is that sacking his predecessors didnt work, then we are in a sorry, sorry state.

Don't shoot the messenger but will probably pop along and give the game a miss

Pragmatism is all well and good but there is no evidence that Clement can improve us. What happens of we keep Clement and are sitting 3rd in the league next November? Do we not replace then despite the league being over? We need a complete overhaul from top to bottom and hopefully Stewart is the start but who knows. However, there is no excuse for not replacing Clement now or we risk falling further behind.

Good luck to Patrick Stewart (he'll need it) and hopefully he gets the scope, support and encouragement (and has the balls to take on the board when / where required) to quickly redress the years of boardroom neglect. If he doesn't it's a pointless appointment. His CV is decent, but as @Frankiesays, he's left one basket case of a club and joined another. Hopefully has a lot of contacts within the game and wish him well.

Shota Arveladze ?

It's fine, he has until after Spurs and League Cup Final. Wins both those, he'll be a hero and we'll keep him on........maybe even give him a further extension 😀

I think it's fair judging him on his most recent games - our results and performances are getting worse with every passing game.

I want a club that is well run, financial stable and challenges for titles domestically and holds its own in Europe. That isn't unrealistic. I said above, but you've skipped over it, I've waited over a decade for this to happen. That's not impatient. How long do you think os acceptable to wait? I've also said this, and you've skipped over it. The current board is to blame for our current financial plight due to make continuing horrendous decisions. Why should we trust them to suddenly start making the correct decisions? Finally - if a manager can't coach an expensively assembled squad of highly paid players to be competitive, they need to be moved on (not given an extended contract). Last 17 games in all competitions - 48% win rate. His time is up.

You still haven't told me what I'm being unrealistic or impatient about. You've bought the party line.

Paddy from Aberdeen......

Set phasers to "sack Clement" 😀

You still haven't told me what I'm being impatient about and what are my unrealistic expectations? We've waited 14 years for the board (and previous boards) to come up with a long term fix, they've continued to show they are incapable of this. How much longer are you suggesting we wait for? Another decade and a half?

Anyone who didn't vote for Cerny should be banned from voting in next MOTM thread. 😀

I've had it with Clement. I won't be at another Rangers game with him in charge. This sums it up perfectly for me.

I just don't see how we'll be able to have a serious tilt next season. What will have changed? We won't have much money for new players, you want to stick with a manager who doesn't have a style of play or who doesn't know his best 11. You are correct that the issues are much deeper but in his 12 months in the role, Clement has overseen a drastic regression in our results and performances. We'll be sitting here saying the same on the eve of them winning 10-in-a-row if we don't address those "underlying" issues - I.e the board.

I'd argue the football under Clement is worse than under Beale and Gio, bordering on Pedro and Warburton. 7 goals in the last 5 home games. 17 league goals all season. 3rd in the league. Even cutting wages we should still be competitive in the SPL. Are we to believe that in 12 months time our books will be in order? How many more titles do we give up? Who are we selling at a profit? Diomande? Cortes? Igamane? Propper? Bajrami? This is Rangers Football Club, so, this was Rangers Football Club a pale shadow of the proud institution it used to be.

Correct, but 1 in 9 isn't much better and point stands. However, I'd like to know as a Rangers fan what unrealistic expectations I have and what I'm impatient about.

A mate just sent me this, made me chuckle.. Rangers board attempted to sack Clement today but accidentally promoted him to CEO.....

Due to the late kick-off yesterday, I went for a pie and bovril at half-time. Both were "lukewarm" (at best) and set me back £8.15

In hindsight, I'd agree with this. I'd also say he didn't get the credit he deserved for getting us to the EL final. When you look at the teams we defeated to get there, it was an absolute incredible achievement. I'd say that even some Rangers fans play this down for some reason. Maybe it's because we lost to the "weakest" team we faced in the later stages of the competition. We should have won the EL - if we had a fit striker (either Roofe or Morelos), we'd have won it IMO.

It really isn't. Is it unrealistic to expect Rangers Football Club to have won more than 1 title in 14 years? If it is, I'm supporting the wrong club. What have the fans been impatient about? The fans have backed the board (season ticket sales, top end European ticket prices, merchandise etc) season after season. Was it fans being unrealistic and impatient that "forced" the board to spend £12M on a vanity project called NEH? Is it the fans fault (impatient and unrealistic) that the board pay higher wages than Celtic? Did the fans squander £50M received on transfer fees? Do the fans continue to force the board to spend more than they generate? That's all on the board and absolutely nothing to do with the fans.
