It was humiliation when he turned us down. I too remember that complete underwhelming feeling, had no idea who would want to manage us at that point.

Here's an interview with him from a while back. Certainly backs up what your saying. He knew that only finishing 1st was acceptable at Rangers. That's not to say that he had the capability to do that if he had taken the job himself.
Aberdeen manager Derek McInnes has hit back at Pedro Caixinha after the Rangers gaffer cranked up the mind games ahead of tomorrow's meeting at Ibrox.
Caixinha struck out with a series of jibes against the Dons last night - claiming their position as second best in the country was coming to an end and insisting McInnes was facing a major summer rebuild.
The Portuguese coach then stuck the knife in when he admitted he fancies pinching Dons skipper Ryan Jack in the summer with the 25-year-old set to leave Pittodrie.
Jack is out injured for tomorrow's meeting and faces a race against time to be fit for the Scottish Cup Final against Celtic a week on Saturday.
But his manager was in no mood for mind games when he spoke to the media this afternoon.
McInnes said: "I find it strange that the Rangers manager feels the need to talk about other clubs so much.
"If he thinks that doing brilliant at Rangers is by finishing ahead of Aberdeen then he is clearly mistaken.
"His job as Rangers manager is to finish above Celtic and he should be more concerned by that challenge. He shouldn't be talking about our players but each to their own.
"Any team that finishes above Rangers in the league, with the budget they have, is doing their work well.
"They should probably be embarrassed that they've not finished second.
"I think any Premiership manager, with the budget Rangers have, would finish second in the league.
"I think he likes to do a lot of talking. I think the Rangers fans over the last few years have been used to owners, managers, players saying what they want to hear.
"But the reality is his job as Rangers manager is to finish above Celtic and if he thinks he is doing well by finishing above Aberdeen and the rest then he'll soon find out soon that's not enough"

He declined a interview did he not? whos to say he would have been offered the job. Also rumour about his contract with that shower .
True, which is probably why he shat it.

Yes, but he would have done it 4 months quicker...
3 ex Rangers players there.Welcome to what would've been the Rangers dugout.
19th Century Terroristed up to fu(k.
Would've relinquished over 40 years of support on their appointments.
They were coming at over a million too.
Couldn't have condoned it, just walked away quietly and never returned.
I actually have to thank you Derek, cheers.
