Gonzo79 15,294 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Our support's inability to let go of past employees is bizarre. Beale's record at QPR is very average (just check their last handful of results) and things weren't working out very well before him and Gerrard left Ibrox. Time for new ideas. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Moon 1,293 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 I agree completely. It is a no from me on both Gerrard and Beale. I don't get the Michael Beale love in online. That ship has sailed. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Frankie 8,570 Posted November 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 9, 2022 Beale seems a good sort but was a key part of the management team that seen us decline before Gio arrived. There's no way we should be looking at any of them and surely we have something a bit more innovative up our sleeves. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must have employed hundreds of people in my working life, every one of them with the intention of making a positive contribution. Over the period maybe a dozen or so turned out to be a major success, most were merely average and quite a few were a bloody waste of time and money. All of them were researched, vetted and sourced by professional recruiters. The point is that, as anyone who has had to recruit people will know, there are absolutely no guarantees and you will have your share of failures. I believe the key is not to dwell on those who don't live up to expectations and get rid asap. The same goes for Rangers. What you certainly don't want to do is re-hire people who have already shown you what they can do and didn't impress. In any case, there are very few Water Smiths out there who can repeat previous successes. 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree 100% as somebody who has also hired many a person, you can quite quickly work out the difference between people who are not good, and those who are not good, but can be improved. We need to somehow miraculously find that person who IS good but can also improve with us... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My comment on Beale with Gerrard as assistant was made more as a tongue in cheek comment to reference how differently their paths turned out and that the majority of the Rangers support could have foreseen what has happened to both. I am firmly in the 'lets move on' camp Edited November 9, 2022 by lenny3k grammar :( 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What? Why? If anyone we would want Beale. Gerrard will NEVER return. Ego, if anything, would simply not permit it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7 6,016 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 I would have Gerrard back but only if celtic took lennon back at the same time. Thank you, neil, for your part in the 55. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,747 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 We need some no-nonsense guy who can work with what he's got and who is willing to change tactics and/or people according to the opposition/task at hand. And someone who is willing to kick non-performers' backs. I've seen Sean Dyche being mentioned, who would be that no-nonsense guy. Yet, we also need someone who knows his way around Scottish and preferably European games too ... maybe as an assistant. Neil McCann maybe. You do wonder what sort of influence the people around Gio actually have, since, e.g. I would have assumed that Roy Makaay would have seen our shortcomings against the brickwall brigade in terms of strike-force and finishers. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
