The list of managers Mccinnes topped is scary

[uneasydaz]

Just listening to the latest episode of heart and hand Gerrard Evolution of a revolution and they were saying the list of managers that Derek Mccinnes topped included Darren Ferguson and Derek Adams, how lucky are we?

 

[Modfella]

Yeah was thinking same, thanks Derek for saying No!

 

[Devil's Advocate]

That gives you chills just thinking about it.

 

[RFCGTC]

He would have set us back even further and they wouldve won 10iar. We owe him a massive gratitude for bottling the move!

 

[Forza_Napoli]

As much as I glad the board were responsible especially king for getting Gerrard I'm glad they have nothing to do with it now and it will be mostly down to Ross Wilson who our next manager will be

 

[LarkfiedLoyalNS]

Love heart and hand but I hate remembering the bad times x2 winter breaks in a row etc etc.

Is this painful memories?

Anyone who had McInnes at the top of a list for anything should never make a decision again regarding football at Rangers.

McInnes was King's preferred candidate on the advice of Walter Smith at that time.

Mcinnes certainly was not King's preferred candidate

 

[strider]

Mcinnes certainly was not King's preferred candidate

That was my memory of it from the stories kicking around at the time. King had asked Walter for some advice, and we weren't using Mark Allen for the process despite his role at the club at that point.

Nothing got done at Rangers without King's sign-off back then, also.

 

[Euro Scooter]

McInnes was King's preferred candidate on the advice of Walter Smith at that time.

Walter thought Ally would be a good manager.

Sometimes Walter, love him as I do, is more loyal than thoughtful.

Ally may have been a good manager unfortunately for him he got the job at the wrong time

 

[Commentator]

Mcinnes certainly was not King's preferred candidate

Who was?

 

[Rusty Shackleford]

The more you think about it the more obvious it becomes how perfect Gerrard was for the job. Someone who had experience of putting a team on his back, getting back up and going again with the same mentality when things didn’t work out. Simply driven to win.
McInnes turning the job down to stay in a relatively comfortable but mediocre job tells you he was never right for Rangers, especially at that time.

 

[Sunnyvale_Loyal]

Ally may have been a good manager unfortunately for him he got the job at the wrong time

No, he was terrible.

 

[Sunnyvale_Loyal]

McInnes was King's preferred candidate on the advice of Walter Smith at that time.

Walter was a good manager, but obviously couldn't spot a good manager.

 

[Spart7]

McInnes killed Ferguson and Adams? Fookin el.

Its as if someone was flicking through their contact list and stopped on D

 

[chilebear]

Who was?

I think king preferred that manager who was either Spanish or Portugués
The name slips me

 

[big_blue]

I heard that on Heart and Hand earlier and think it’s frightening that Ferguson and Adams even made the list.

I can almost see why McInnes was on the list and delighted he shat it.

Whoever thought Pedro, Adams and Ferguson are good enough to manage Rangers should be nowhere near our club.

 

[GovanRanger]

McInnis is finished a one trick pony with no bottle. more than bullet missed, more like an asteroid missed.

 

[Haining84]

Just reading Chris Jacks book ‘Going for 55’ and in it Dave King says the list of managers given to him included 4 ex EPL managers and 2 ex England ones.

 

[Main Stand]

Vitor Perreira?.

 

[Bribrox]

Just reading Chris Jacks book ‘Going for 55’ and in it Dave King says the list of managers given to him included 4 ex EPL managers and 2 ex England ones.

Read that too, I assumed Steve McLaren was one of them.

 

[Haining84]

Aye I thought McLaren & Woy?

 

[Glasgow Rangers (Sco)]

This is why you need a decent DOF

 

[The Royal Standard]

Not that they’ll get an influential say on Rangers anyway but plenty on here fancied him at the time

 

[hhss]

Ally may have been a good manager unfortunately for him he got the job at the wrong time

Nah, not having this.

I know that feeling. I thought Caixinha sounded clued up. I was duped.

 

[The Goalie]

Aye I thought McLaren & Woy?

Eriksson possibly?

 

[Wilkinsvolley]

Aye I thought McLaren & Woy?

Warnock?

 

[Jamiegatami]

Derek McInnes
Derek Adams?

FFS we would have been better with Big Derek Johnstone!

 

[stein and johnston]

Love Heart and Hand.. Wonderful listen.
The way they broke down all those possible scenarios makes you appreciate what we have and thankful for what we didn’t get.

 

[chilebear]

Vitor Perreira?.

Thanks, mate,Thats the one, Youve a good memory,

 

[Bluenose Rab]

No, he was terrible.

We'll never know what he mighta been like under normal circumstances. Shoulda been good, working under Walter and all, and nobody has ever had to work under those conditions, ever. We'll never know & it's a moot point, just don't slag him off. Without Ally primarily, plus Sandy, Bomber, the Sons of Struth and others, there woulda been no Rangers for the three bears to save.
Stevie G was the perfect appointment after a coupla false starts. Compare and contrast, where we were, where we'd been & where we are. Let's go.

[Amstel]

Fucking hell that’s grim

 

[104Bear]

Someone in that boardroom stood up and shouted, "right, that's fuckin it. All of you sit down and wind yer fuckin necks in" (or something like that )

Probably Dave.

 

[Ciro]

Just reading Chris Jacks book ‘Going for 55’ and in it Dave King says the list of managers given to him included 4 ex EPL managers and 2 ex England ones.

I would imagine the ex-England managers would have been Allardyce and McLaren.

 

[Japandroid]

Warnock?

It was between Warnock and Gerrard before Gerrard was, thankfully, appointed.

 

[Blue boy]

McInnes was King's preferred candidate on the advice of Walter Smith at that time.

And Ally

 

[Blue boy]

Ally may have been a good manager unfortunately for him he got the job at the wrong time

I dont think so, hence he has never got another job and likely doesnt want or need one.

 

[Blue boy]

Graham potter / billy reid was my choice when mcinnes was in the frame.

 

[SDF]

Aye I thought McLaren & Woy?

Hodgson had just taken over Palace(from de Boer) so not him.

I think it was McLaren and Hoddle or possibly Allardyce

I wanted Pardew. The mental bastard

 

[wee bud's pit boots]

Absolutely.

No second chances.

 

[Wilkinsvolley]

Id have been ok with Warnock at the time but I’m glad we got Gerrard and his team.

 

[wee bud's pit boots]

Ally may have been a good manager unfortunately for him he got the job at the wrong time.

What do you mean by 'may have been'?.

Some players are legends as players

Some are cut out to be managers.

Ally is in the former category.

I'd argue he was the right manager at the right time as he proved beyond all doubt, that he couldn't cut it at the lowest level far less getting us to the top. It took some amount of deadwood and heartbreak before we got a manager worthy of the name.

It was never going to be Ally.

Didn't cut it before administration so I don't see the force of your point.

 

[Southside Bear]

I was thinking Kevin Keegan

 

[First Touch In Europe]

Walter thought Ally would be a good manager.

Sometimes Walter, love him as I do, is more loyal than thoughtful.

He may well have been in normal circumstances. Or at least may well have got away with looking like he was for a few years.
