To me it is symptomatic of a lack of foresight, or of even the foresight to see that foresight is required. I partly agree - hence why I think we should have kept PC until the summer. But now that he's gone, surely it's even more of a lack of foresight to make a permanent decision now when we've got takeover talks, a search for a DoF, and a club-wide review in the works? 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not often goalkeeping coaches are part of the cull so can only assume someone is doing the oversight here. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uilleam 6,145 Posted 17 hours ago Share Posted 17 hours ago 17 minutes ago, Rousseau said: I'm still of the opinion that it is a mistake to sack him now. I would have waited until the summer. Sacking him now gives everybody -you, me, the coaches, the manager, interim or not, everybody in the football department- a chance to assess the players, rather than focus on the failing Manager's failings. I think QP and St Mirren, both a home, rendered his position untenable. A hunted, and haunted, man in the dugout is not what I should wish to see. And, of course, you have to take into consideration the effect on the man himself. Dismissal, if such it was, may have done him a favour -in all likelihood it did. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me it is symptomatic of a lack of foresight, or of even the foresight to see that foresight is required. To be fair, when a takeover happens, it is usually a clean sweep all round and they will certainly want to appoint a new coach. At the moment we cannot afford to hire a long-term coach knowing he is likely to be gone in few months. That's why it seems sensible to appoint Charai. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is that something should have been in place. Unless, of course, there was, and the Dollar Boys put the steever in. Recruiting an Assistant Manager, some few weeks ago, on a longish contract (i I r c), did seem a little strange, when it was pretty bleeding obvious that PC was on borrowed time. Unless, of course that was an appointment, before anointment.......... (I think I mentioned this, somewhat tongue in cheek, a few days ago.) Overall, I think that Ibrox decision making is almost wholly reactive. That may be due to having nobody actually in charge, beyond the nominal. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the moment we cannot afford to hire a long-term coach knowing he is likely to be gone in few months. That's why it seems sensible to appoint Charai. I think, from the LUFC example, that the takeover may proceed by a process of accretion, rather than by a clean sweep up of all the shares. I could be wrong. The initial appointment of Charai was a trifle odd, and under a longish contract, unless it was intended to make him Manager, when PC, inevitably left.

Fa1833 306 Posted 17 hours ago Share Posted 17 hours ago Four lads, a dream ignited, Rangers' flame, forever bright. No fortune fuels their burning quest, Just tradition, put to the test. With hearts ablaze and spirits high, We will reach for greatness, touch the sky. No wealth we crave, no riches we seek, Just Rangers' glory, strong and meek. If fortune smiles, then let it be, But first, the soul, for all to see. Four lads, a dream, a timeless call, To make Rangers great, standing tall. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
