Anyone want to speculate why the strong favourite for the rangers job was only appointed Southampton manager last week? I think he’s actually drifted out from being a ridiculously short price .

Just really odd.

@Eggs feel free to chip in

so I got that off oddschecker this morning , telling me Betfair was best price as illustrated above in my pic .

When you open up Betfair he’s not in the betting , I presume it’s possibly a glitch.

Very odd

….yep, not showing on my Oddschecker. BF and Paddy Power are the same company if you ever need to cross-check odds.

Interesting , some team is going to take a calculated punt on Will Still one day . Kevin Thelwell in the paper saying “ a head coach will be appointed “ in the coming days” “ . And Dan Purdy , our previous head of recruitment, has joined him at Rangers too.
 
At least he'll bring a bit of personality to the club!! 😀
Think Strachan signed him when he was a celtic, that didn't go down too well either.
Livingston and Falkirk will be delighted with that appointment, almost guaranteed Dundee will be for the drop next season.
Wonder if martindale was ever considered?

Like many clubs that release a statement of many candidates etc etc.

Love to see the list.
 

Finally!! 😃😀
Dear Rangers Supporters,

We are proud to be entering a new chapter for this extraordinary club. This moment is the result of months of thoughtful discussions with club leadership and our shared confidence in Rangers’ success going forward.

To that end we’d like to tell you a bit about our thinking.

Simply put – our goal is to win trophies in Scotland and be able to compete at a high level in Europe, while laying a foundation of financial sustainability for the future.

As our first step, we are investing fresh capital into Rangers, which will be strategically deployed on and off the pitch. While we recognise the importance of resources, we believe that thoughtful, disciplined investment, guided by a clear strategy, is the path to enduring success. Every decision, whether sporting or business, will be made with the club’s long-term success and sustainability in mind.

We aim to leverage the full strength of 49ers Enterprises’ sporting expertise and operational experience, and are confident in Patrick Stewart and Kevin Thelwell to lead this next phase. Our first priority together is clear: hiring a new men’s Head Coach. That process is already well underway, and we look forward to sharing more updates soon. We will also look to invest in talent for our teams.

Moving forward, we are reconstituting the Board to bring in a few new voices and skill sets. We all owe a special thanks to the previous Board for their service. They stepped up in a difficult moment when the club needed them and laid the foundation for what comes next.

Above all, we know that true success comes from understanding and honouring what makes this club special. In our time getting to know Ibrox, Glasgow, and you, we’ve felt the pride, history, and passion that set Rangers apart. You have made it clear what this club means to you, and we take the responsibility of leading this club seriously.

We look forward to seeing you at Ibrox soon. For now, we’ll keep working, and we can’t wait for what’s ahead.

Andrew Cavenagh, Chairman

To be fair when it comes to football it's not that big a risk....

Scotland is a very poor quality league, if you can make a few smart signings you pretty much guarantee champions league every year.....

The money needed to get there compared to the money it brings in is basically pure profit....

In comparison, you get teams like birmingham dropping 15 mill on a striker to get them from league 1 to the championship.., a 15 mill striker in Scotland probably wins you the league
