His name is Steven Gerrard, if it goes t1ts up he will get a second chance, and a third.

This current Rangers manager seems a very odd character to me, in pressers he sounds and seems like a robot, displaying no personality and zero charisma, like he's reading from a script or something, scared sh1tless to say anything that could jeopardise his position, need to relax, have a laugh and get the players on side rather than worrying about losing his job, when the players are challenging you in the dressing room the writing is one the wall anyway regardless of who's in the wrong.

According to the press Gerrard has accepted the job.  Has the deal been done??

Reading other press resources saying Gerrard still thinking about accepting.  No one knows

" Gerrard is within touching distance of the Ibrox hotseat and ready to seal a sensational move.

The Rangers board are hopeful that – if final details can be ironed out – they’ll be able to unveil Gerrard within days.

The 37-year-old, currently in charge of Liverpool’s Under-18 side, was targeted by director of football Mark Allen to replace temporary boss Graeme Murty.

Allen has been encouraged by the Gerrard discussions and is now confident a deal can soon be struck.

We understand former Scotland international Gary McAlister has agreed to be assistant boss subject to dotting the Is and crossing the Ts.

Reds youth coach Tom Culshaw would complete the back-room team.

The Anfield icon has been mulling over Rangers’ offer and last night was nearing a decision to take over."

Don't do it Steven

As stated previous I will be amazed if this happens

He's no fool. If there's anyone I'd bet on to make a right move, at the right time, it would be SteGer.

He could walk into the dressing room at HT and say 'we go again'

I remember when souness took over in the eighties.
The Gers went on to dominate for the next decade or so, but make no mistake it was far from easy.
Soey knows he had to fight tooth and nail for every inch of every victory to get them to the top.
It was a fight.
A fight with certain people inside the club, a fight with other scottish clubs, a fight even with some players within his own squad.
I look at the current Rangers team and wonder who is up for it?
If Stevie G is prepared to go into ibrox and be the iron man then he has the possibility of success.
If he goes there thinking its a step toward the liverpool job then he is deluding himself and he will fail.

He'd be better off starting with Brechin City.

The question is, "Is he good enough for the most successful football club in the world?"

It's a big step Stevie.  I wish you well fella.

Who are sevco?

Back in yer box, Dumdum!

Alex Rae believes Steven Gerrard would be a "box office" appointment at Rangers and says the club were right to sack Graeme Murty.

The former Liverpool and England captain is expected to continue talks this week with a view to taking over at Ibrox after the club announced the departure of Murty on Tuesday morning following Sunday's 5-0 defeat to Celtic.

Rae, who won a Scottish title and a League Cup during a two-year spell at Ibrox as a player, says Gerrard would bring a "winning mentality" back to the club should he take up the role.

"He's box office. He would bring a level of standard that has been missing in recent years from Rangers that has been diluted," Rae told Sky Sports News. "The winning mentality needs to be brought back here and Steven Gerrard would do that, I'm sure.

"He needs financial backing from the board and he's obviously in a strong position in negotiations at the moment. So he will be looking for assurances if he is looking to take up the post here at Ibrox."

Rae believes Gerrard will need to be backed financially in order to compete with Celtic and to oversee a revamp of the current Rangers squad.

"There will have to be a massive clear out and that costs a lot of money but you also have to attract the right player.

"Steven Gerrard has got plenty of contacts throughout the game and he would need considerable backing, you are talking about tens of millions because the gap is considerable at the moment. Celtic will strengthen again in the summer and so it needs big backing financially from this board."

Rangers released a statement on Tuesday confirming Murty had left his role as manager and Rae backed the board's decision to make a change, with Jimmy Nicholl and Jonatan Johansson set to take charge for the remaining three games of the season.

"I felt it was the time for a change to be made. There are only three games to go and it looks as if the players are really struggling for confidence at the moment," Rae added. "They really need to get something going in the last three games to try and get that second spot.

"Ideally you would like to bring a new manager in, it would give them time to assess the players but Jimmy Nicholl and Jonatan Johansson have got the reins for the next three games.

"They will be looking for some sort of bounce, the performances of late haven't been great and the players are struggling for confidence. But you have to be brave to play here at Ibrox, with 50,000 fans demanding a performance here at the weekend against Kilmarnock."

Rangers approached Gerrard because they wanted someone with experience of stopping Rogers winning the league

badsworth..post of the year..superb!

John Hartson.........'Pep Guardiola couldn't even close the Celtic / Rangers gap'.......

Gerrard might get promises but he won't get enough cash for players.
This is not a Manchester City or Chelsea "money no problem" appointment.

This is like Derek McInnes part II all over

Turmoil on the Rangers board.  2 Directors just left.  Not looking good when looking for a new manager
