if another manager in the pl outside of kean had this squad....

[westsussexranger]

With the array of managers in the pl ie fergie mancini redknapp its a very odd question. Any of the top managers probably would get the best out of our squad but we would never get a top manager. And oneil went to Sunderland due to him being a Sunderland supporter. There are too many factors to consider

[Mr Lofty]

Here you again. Are you on an earner if Warnock is sacked? The one question you cannot answer is who you would replace him with. Dont say Hughes as it is so unlikely he would accept.

Who out of the all the Premeirship Managers could Rangers have attracted over the last 3 years. I will take a wild guess at none. Our club has only just recovered from the debacle it was and now has some sense of purpose. Whatever your thoughts on this are the undeniable fact is this is down to Neil Warnock. He took a shambles heading for relegation and turned them into a Championship winning promotion side in a little more than a year. I am not sure Arsen Wenger could do that. You cannot just write this off and say well he has no idea in the Premiership and we should sack him. Thats crazy.

I have said before if we were the sort of club who could attract the Martin Oniels of this world then fine, the Chairman has a difficult dilema of course. But we are not. Time to get real guys I am afraid.

[stainrodisalegend]

OK so what you are infact saying is that we should now sack Warnock. Fair enough. I'm simply saying be careful what you wish for. Maybe they have already sounded out Hughes and he isn't interested, who knows? A few weeks ago another name was going round and it sure wasn't Hughes - and not many fans on here would consider him an improvement on Warnock, that's for sure.

this is not in any part saying we could have got anyother manager more the point that everyother manager would possibly have achieved more with this team by playing to our strengths and organising the team better

yes eastcote, but as we keep replying, so what???? none of those better managers were available to us and almost certainly nor are they now. it really is quite a simple point.

stainrod what i truly believe should have happened is that he should have been pulled aside by those above and told we need to win and that he needs to play the right players in the right position as its totally unacceptable toplay 1 up fron in games we need to win

and if all the stories are to be believed in the amount of time he spends at the ground and the habits of his coaches he should be warned to sort it out as unacceptable

the q ref hughes if you talk about him to fulham fans and i work with one of the few who acyuially go home and away they thought he was a good manager, yes a ##### but a good manager

No one on here as far as I know doubt Hughes is a good manager. The point is he is either not interested in coming to us or Fernandez doesn't agree.

Can't disagree about all the off-field stuff. Am far from impressed by his conduct this season and some of the allegations should be investigated by the board. But I keep coming back to the same question - we are where we are, so what do we do about it now? And if the answer is sack him, bearing in mind he won't be replaced by Hughes, what then?

Your right if no replacement not a lot to do, the club then at a serious crossroads
Would you give money to a manager you may be doubting will be able to get the best from the players with no guarantee he can fix it? Or do you accept relegation ( cos if we don't invest before Newcastle and most defo Wigan) we will be, and try and go again next season, BUT if there is a choice....

Cos if they splash the cash on what we need to
Survive now and warnock goes in summer they could be left with a lot of players who the new manager may not want next year

5 more fkng points this wouldn't have Been an issue

Think if the board starve Warno of funds because they have lost faith in him then they are cutting off their noses to spite their face. This squad needs major investment if it isn't to be playing Championship football next season. But think they have every right to point out that spending relatively large sums on quick fixes such as Johnson (aged 30) is not the answer. If they were to get in younger players such as Onouha or genuine marquee signings such as Alex I don't see how any incoming manager cd have any complaints.

[LoftusRoadLad]

We need to wait till the end of Feb. Only then will we know if Warno has won us over. Until then we have just gotta trust him and Tony to get the results for us.
You remind me of a tee shirt i had when a kid...a picture of 2 vultures in a tree one saying "Patience? my bum. I'm gonna kill summit"

Patience ne'er been a virtue of mine , ESP when patience will mean to late , we don't get points by end of march were dead

[LBLOCK]

Managers that would do better - dare say there is such as Fergie and more tactical geniuses like Rodgers and Lambert

A HUGE BUT though - you need to understand that these other Managers have been given time and a free reign at their clubs for that time. The situation at QPR only changed mid August FFS to allow that (and even then one or two clowns remained around)

A BIGGER BUT do you honestly think that Coyle, McCarthy, Martinez, Bruce, Kean or even Jol wouldve done better so far this season or have been welcomed by any of the In Warnock We Suddenly Have Reservations About mob in the summer? Not a chance of it!
Possibly Martin O'Neill may have been welcomed but him and most of the others would never have joined pre TF or post August window

I will keep the faith until after Wolves game and see what squad we have and where we are
