Comes across as a genuinely great human being Neil Critchley. That’s the kind of model we should be going for. Technical coaches who work within an analytical framework

Shaun

“ a nuclear bomb that broke the camels everything” love how that literally sums up the current shambles so well 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

Scott Kerr

Clement should no longer be our manager, no matter what result we get a tynecastle or any other league game. Domestically it's over!! We are a bin fire and no one can put it out ...🤷😢

Andrew David Ferguson

Nowhere' by Therapy first heard that song during a episode of Game on. Which was a BBC Sitcom back in the mid 90's Brilliant show so underrated at the time. probably still is.

Piggott

Cheers for explaining the club review, it made me understand it better too

Colin Mathie

I hope the media, especially fan media give baldy as hard a time as he has ever faced tomorrow during the presser.

Andrew Hind

Looks like Clement is here for rest of the season, just wonder if the board realise this is not what fanbase want to see

Graham Roy

Day 5 of being pissed off! It does appear that club are sticking with PC and for the CEO he better hope we win on Sunday or next week will be toxic!

Gordon Smith

Silence is not the move and is completely unprofessional. They need to publicly back Clement if they're doing so and be grown ups and do their communication jobs. Are they worried about sweary words online?

Andrew Mundt

If the club came out and publicly backed the manager, I'd at least have a bit of respect for them. Is think they were making a fucking terrible decision, but at least they'd be showing balls in making and announcing the decision. Radio silence is just utterly pathetic.

KennyY

Postecoglu going to be out the door soon. Get him in to ruffle a few feathers. I’m joking of course.

Graeme McLeod

I know it's a wind up but.... I'd still take him over Dr. Evil. I'll see myself out, lads.

Stephen

What a song. Favourite album ever for me.

Jim Milne

Damn these patreon pictures. I was hoping that picture of Kevin Thomson meant he had been instilled this caretaker manager!

William Noble

This is all fine but it just deflection from the real problem

William Noble

I always enjoy your podcasts David

Craig Fryatt

Harrington going to the press conference, immediately conjured up images of the Chick Young and Paul le Guen skit from Only an Excuse

Graham Roy

Not sure what they think will happen! It actually has annoyed me more as I had hoped with new CEO and Chairman we might have a fresher approach to dealing with….well anything?! However it appears we are the same mess as previous years and not learning from mistakes! The board are screwed whatever they do in fairness but that doesn’t mean bury your head in the sand! Just say you are standing by him at least until the summer blah blah or get rid of him!

Graham Leatherbarrow

When is the review planned to be completed? The length of contract given to new assistant is rather surprising to many, why give such a lengthy contract prior to conclusion of review? Will full review be published for fan base? I’d be interested if a poll was carried out of 45k plus season ticket holders re ST renewals if we start next season with PC as manager, anyone want a repeat of last 12 month for another 900 quid?

David Baillie

Given the utter contempt that the club has shown the support, how would it be if the club media groups H&H, Rangers Review, 4 Lads etc turn up to tomorrow’s presser and remain completely silent. Would that send a message to the board? To be followed up at the weekend by silence from the away fans at Tynecastle and again at the St Mirren game at Ibrox next week. These people don’t deserve our support.

Wilson Elder

Just wondering if there are people in the board room pulling in different directions, and no one wants to make any decisions 🤔 Thanks for some Words of wisdom in the Gloom mr Edgar 🙏 Hard and Hand the light in the Darkness

David Baillie

I was a big fan of Game On Andrew. There are rumours of a sequel. For all the skunk pussies out there. 😂

James Curran

Thanks Davy, for using my question on the update. I agree with your point on the senior team. They can describe the theory of what needs to be done. But they don’t have the skill or will to implement it.

Douglas Innes

Isn't what james is suggesting what we're trying to do with Clement and koppen.... Rome wasn't built in 1 day and I'd say the problems we face now we'll face with a new manager and new players in 12 months time

Niall MacKay

God, it really is bloody depressing being a Rangers fan just now. Seems like lots of trial and crazy amounts of error. I'd like for them all to go away come up with a plan and implement it. It shouldn't be hard to build a winning outfit in Scotland. Not with our budget and turnover.

Heart and Hand

Possibly. But that doesn't mean you keep an unsuccessful manager who the fans don't like and who will badly affect renewals.

Heart and Hand

I think we can get a bit carried away with 'sending messages'. It's based in the idea that they can't know what's going on, because if they did they would fix it. That somehow if we can only let them know they'll then realise and fix it. That's easier to process than the truth which is they Do know what's going on but DON'T know how to fix it. I've read lots of suggestions this week about things that would 'send a message'. They have the message already. They just don't have the solutions.

Heart and Hand

No, it won't be shared with public and nor should it be. It's going to recommend key processes and things we will be doing - why would you reveal that to your rivals? It would be counter-productive.

Doogz

I have no great faith in Patrick Stewart being the man to sort Rangers out, I get he’s not long in the door but I fear he’s hiding behind this external review, for me he is the one that should have been going in and sorting things out. He sure as hell isn’t coming across like David Holmes that’s for sure.

Damien Stubbs

David you’re 100% right about fans turning off. For Sunday I wanted to find something else to do instead of the game…ironically I’m taking my daughter to the circus….insert pun about it being like watching the rangers board trying to make a credible decision

Heart and Hand

This is what they should be worried about. Not fan anger - that's at least a sign they care. It's if supporters switch off you're in bother.

Damien Stubbs

100%. I’m miserable with it. And it must be said whilst I have your attention whenever I listen to you on any of the rangers related shows on the network at times like this (which has been more often than not in recent years) I always reflect that my misery probably isn’t as bad as yours having to report on this sh*tshow 🤣 so thanks for doing so mate, appreciated as always 👏

James Curran

If Clement started in the summer and wasn’t tarnished with last seasons collapse. I don’t believe he would be this damaged with the fans. We all have rose tinted specs but Gerrard’s first season was over performing in Europe, a strong home record beating Celtic with lots of draws away from home and struggling to break the low block. If you look at Clements record this season it’s the same pattern in my opinion. He doesn’t have the personality like Gerrard did to make us believe he can turn it around. A new manager in the summer only needs to be better than Clement and won’t be hamstrung with removing high earners that contribute nothing and settling lots of new players. That might not be fair, but it would give the new guy space to build in my opinion.

Stewart Robertson

Welcome home Thommo. Finally we have a WINNER in the building !

Scott Moore

No harm to the individuals involved but we seem to be making an awful lot of appointments in various football depts despite an ongoing root and branch review of all football operations!

Jim McCutcheon

Thanks David 👍 what more can we say at this point tumbel weed time at ibrox 🙆‍♂️

Simon Lewandowski

sadly David I don't think this group of players care whether they get criticism or not...so I expect Sunday to be the same as most other weeks...slow insipid football followed by the same old sound bites

Christina Herriot

I think the only thing that gave him any credit this season was that he did well when he first came in with the previous managers' players. It went downhill at the end and imo hasn't improved at all since.

Jim Milne

I thought fan media of H&H & 4 Lads gave Clement a rough ride at Sunday's press conference. As much as we want him gone there is a human aspect too and if it went harder than Sunday it would likely cross a line. I was impressed by fan media's tone in getting their points across.

James Anderson

Should the Union Bears leave early at the next home game, I dont think they would be roundly booed this time.

Graham Kelly

Absolutely love the intro tune David 🤘🤘

John Myles

The way i see it is that pc will not be sacked until we are out of europe that’s why there has been radio silence if he manages to get through the next round that basically pays for his pay off.

Hendi

Depends if they have an objective that everyone understands. They didn't the last time. So it failed.

Douglas Innes

Don't think it will reflect on renewals, what I do see is 12-15 months rinse & repeat but with a lower quality because of less funds and incoming managers/coaches wanting their own kind of players , it's hard to see light if we're only going to repeat the past.

Douglas Innes

I always think due to fate we'd a lot of players going out of contract in the summer Gerrard came and he pretty much had a blank canvas , the team that finished pre Gerrard and then Gerrards squad after the window shut was night & day

Hendi

What evidence is there to suggest renewals will be affected? We have a long waiting list. I would renew, regardless of how bad it gets, because I know I could be years getting a ST back if I give it up and things quickly change. Who here is willing to refuse to renew? It feels like it's been trotted out to try and apply pressure on the board to act, when nobody actually believes it is feasible.

Andy Sladen

100% correct David on the apathy element. I’m 59 in a couple of months and my first memories are family and Rangers. Messaged some friends yesterday and I said the worst thing now is that I don’t give a fuck about them. Can’t imagine giving my season ticket up but don’t enjoy going anymore other than meeting up with friends. Scunnered!

Douglas Innes

You see this is it .... personally for my sins I work , I follow Rangers then the dog and family fit in after that 🤣

Jim Milne

A moment's team, full of players who are happy with one moment so they can post on Instagram acting Billy Big Baws even after a shite result/season.

Jim Milne

Game On, that's a blast from the past with me only watching because of Samantha Janus! LOL.

Dick The Trick

Good pod, music a bit much for me at 6am lol

Martin Sutherland

I’ve booked 18 holes on Sunday. I haven’t deliberately missed watching a game for a long time. On the youth set up changes, more reshuffling rather than actual change. Thomson coming in is a positive. But the rest of the changes just sound like jobs for the boys stuff. I won’t hold my breath about anything positive coming out of this report. Stewart is a puppet.
