Barring about 2 managers has any other in our history ever taken control with us so far behind Celtic in terms of nearly being obliterated? You actually answer that in the post below which makes it all the stranger.
Honestly mate it’s nauseating. In fact it’s so nauseating that I’ve went from not being overly fussed at how he does at Villa to edging towards hoping to see him tank just to see you tear up and trot out the excuses. And by the way can you at least finally admit something to me? Admit that if the board had sold his top players against his wishes that you would have still blamed them for any potential failure, admit that no matter which option the board took you’d have ultimately always blamed them and absolved your demigod for any future failings….
The term? No it’s not a term, it’s a statement of fact. And no, it’s never acceptable, not when we already had by far the second biggest budget in the country, this is Rangers not Motherwell or St Mirren. St Johnstone managed two domestic cups in a season, Mark fecking Waburton even had us a ball hair away from a trophy albeit that team bottled it too as they tended to. It’s not just about not winning a trophy, it’s the fact we struggled to even get near a final most of the time - one solitary final and a myriad of embarrassing exits. But that’s all fine if you’re primary love is Steven Gerrard, because I mean he’s clearly bigger than the club to you mate.
As I said in another post, big strides were always going to be made under any decent manager after the pitiful performances of the previous couple of managers who frankly had no business ever being Rangers managers. That doesn’t mean they’d all have done as well as Gerrard, nor does it mean they wouldn’t have done better, it just means significant progress from where Waburton and Pedro had us shouldn’t have been too difficult for any semi competent coaching team.
