Charlie Endell Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Couple of bookies aren't taking any more dough on Warburton being appointed manager. After McCoist appointing an outsider seems a sensible idea and a slice of luck if they get him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShedTA Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 I suspect Dave King the proven liar, may have been lying about making a large investment. Just a hunch though. glib and shameless... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairbairn Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Couple of bookies aren't taking any more dough on Warburton being appointed manager. After McCoist appointing an outsider seems a sensible idea and a slice of luck if they get him. Big risk though. He's had one job and has been a manager for a sum total of 2 seasons. He seems to have done well at Brentford but I'm not getting my hopes up too much that he's the best thing since sliced bread.....* *Sorry.

It could also be questioned as to how much authority he had at Brentford, due to the unique way the club is run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not and Dave king has baked savings into the business plan it will be hard to rise to the occasion and they will be left floundering with the chaff again. One positive though he wont be knocking his pan in whilst the likes of Lee Mcculoch loaf around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShedTA Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Well maybe the crisis is over. Dave King has just said the club may need to over -invest to get up into the premiership. so thats good news - its not like they have done that already for the past 3 ....oh wait.....

Flure Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 He's urging fans to sign up for their season tickets. With no manager in place, and only half a squad for next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I genuinely think it hilarious that so many Rangers fans lapped up all the shite King spouted and welcomed him like some kind of saviour/hero.

Chief Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 The less King invests the better surely, the club needs to become self sufficient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenneth Farrington Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 "The arrangement cannot be working for Sports Direct," King said. "Rangers have gone from a period where they were selling 500,000 shirts to selling about 50,000." Half a million shirts - that's some going. What year was this? I can't remember hearing much about it, which is amazing under the circumstances! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EddardStark Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 What's your thoughts, Eddard? I think he is playing it pretty cautiously. He has only been in the role a few weeks. Management appointment is key in terms of planning and investment in the squad.Hopefully we will see a difference in approach to squad building. King is right though, fans need to get behind the club with ST purchases but he has also committed to plugging any funding gap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask me that question at the start of next season. I did not expect him to pile in with loads of cash. I genuinely trust this board to manage the transition and also ensure our long term financial stability is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
