Popular Post ian1964 10,578 Posted November 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 27, 2022 The opportunity to manage an institution like Rangers FC is a privilege which very few are afforded. As a former player, I understood the responsibility and magnitude of the task. My backroom team and I worked with energy, passion and were driven with a belief that we could achieve amazing things. We treated our roles with respect, optimism and determination. We experienced some incredible highs, especially on our European journey to Seville. Winning the Scottish Cup for the first time in over a decade and qualifying for the group stage of the Champions League is something I am very proud of. The passion of our support drove us on to achieve those wonderful memories. For that, I am forever grateful to every single one of you who travelled near and far, spent your hard earned money, and never gave up supporting our team. This season, like every year at Rangers, the first priority is domestic success. I understand the hurt when wins become draws, and worse, when we experience defeat. That isn’t acceptable at a club of Rangers standing, no one understood that and felt that more than I did. I faced unique challenges and some very difficult circumstances to operate in. Rangers FC will always be in my heart and I wish the club all the success for the future. Once a Ranger, always a Ranger. 1h https://www.instagram.com/p/Cldk-RXDQQJ/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y%3D 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway as I said in another thread the EL run last season, winning Scottish Cup and qualifying for CL group stages were the highlights of hospital year in charge. I'll never forget that night at Ibrox v Leipzig. Gio as a player won a treble, scored against Celtic and scored in the Champions League. I wish him well in his next challenge and he'll always be welcome back at Ibrox as far as I'm concerned. 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RANGERRAB 3,387 Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 ‘some very difficult circumstances to operate in’ unless this is addressed then his successor will meet with the same fate as GvB. I think it’s obvious what he’s referring to 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devil's advocaat 1,378 Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Sacked manager alludes to excuse shocker. He's not exactly gonna say there were no issues, is he?. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rousseau 9,817 Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Just now, RANGERRAB said: Lack of investment in squad? not having full control of recruitment? If so, tough. That's how we're run. It's much more important than the ego of a manager. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill 13,717 Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 I'd have thought more of GvB if he'd kept his mouth closed instead of taking an oblique and unsubstantiated swipe at the club. Whatever the surrounding circumstances, he was well paid and needs to own his failures, not insinuate blame on others. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or possibly the amount of injured senior players ? Maybe the gulf in budgets ? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
