Debian Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 (edited) Pedro Caixinha commented: “It is a great honour to join Rangers Football Club. This Club has a great history and tradition and I am proud to follow in the footsteps of legendary Rangers managers like Walter Smith, Graeme Souness and Jock Wallace. “Rangers is a name that is known worldwide and I am looking forward to forging a positive relationship with supporters and meeting the playing squad and staff at the Club. I know there is a lot of hard work ahead and I assure all our fans that I will do all I can to provide a winning and entertaining Rangers team.” Details of Pedro’s backroom team will be confirmed in due course.

Big Col Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39243928 Stuart McCall must be gutted, he's been airbrushed out of The Rangers history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddardStark Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 (edited) Born into a massive Rangers supporting family. Welcome home brother. Managers like this need time and like to build a team. Doubt he will be given that luxury. Edited March 12, 2017 by EddardStark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's true, I trust one of the first matters Pedro will attend to is cancelling days off immediately prior to an important fixture. Anyway, what a good looking man.

sbcmfc Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Was discussing the new boss with a Rangers fan earlier. We had a look at his CV on Wikipedia, and it's far from impressive at a glance. Ive been busy this week, so what's the tabloid spin? Presume he's not being punted as the Portuguese Ian Barraclough? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slasher Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Ronny Deila'esque stuff from the Huns. It will be an interesting few months ahead! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slasher Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Just reading Crazy Pedro's latest. Apparently a young kid who's had about 40 minutes of senior football is destined to be one of the greatest ever centre halfs. Seriously, how much longer before the Huns swallow the cost and dump this clown? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of how good he is that statement places unfair expectations on a young kid. It's up there with his unprofessional remarks about O'Halloran.

Regardless of how good he is that statement places unfair expectations on a young kid. It's up there with his unprofessional remarks about O'Halloran. Just read it. Obviously he isn't going to one of the best CB ever, but I have seen quite a lot of him from watching the youngsters. He is very good, he will have an excellent professional career ahead of him, no doubt about that. He had his debut last night and was solid when he came on, good passer, likes a big tackle, pretty good in the air. Not sure what level he will end up at though, difficult to say. Would hope he would make the Scotland squad in a few years time. Think he is 19 at the mo. Will be very surprised if Pedro is still here at the end of the season - at the moment we are just not good enough to compete and if that doesn't change soon, and I don't think it will, he will be gone. When I say compete, I mean for 2nd. Not really bothered about his numpty statements, its what he does in matchday that bothers me, and at the moment its shite. But, the dogs bark and the caravan keeps going Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jailender Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I think what he said about mcCrorie was a wee bit OTT, but can just about go with it, but what he said about O'Halloran was way beyond the pale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, the dogs bark and the caravan keeps going I thought McCrorie did well against a big physical centre forward last night though I wouldn't extrapolate anything from that though I do have concerns about Saturday as for most of the game we were, in my opinion, awful (thankfully I'll be on the golf course when the Celtic game is on).

More chance of the earth being flat than us getting a point or 3 on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
