Title: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: johnlarsson on January 01, 2007, 04:05:26 PM http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/r/rangers/6223023.stm
Title: Re: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: Bazzaboy on January 01, 2007, 04:50:14 PM I knew there was friction between the two but I was stunned when I heard that. Not really sure what to make of it yet, still in a state of shock lol
Title: Re: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: Karabiner on January 01, 2007, 05:28:01 PM Speaking as a complete neutral here, I would have to say yes he's lost it.
Unless he has a deal lined up for Cesc Fabregas in the transfer window :o Title: Re: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: Bazzaboy on January 01, 2007, 05:51:11 PM As for last nail in the coffin..maybe. But I think its now clear he won't be going anywhere soon. The Chairman has obviously backed his decision so he can hardly do that then sack him a month or two later..or can he?? Nothing would surprise me at the minute.

Title: Re: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: Rod Paradise on January 01, 2007, 06:03:00 PM I'm begining to think that Rangers and Hearts, realising they've not a hope of the league, are trying to make the 'challenge' so ridiculous it undermines Celtic's win.

could be just for one game Title: Re: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: johnlarsson on January 01, 2007, 06:03:38 PM I'm begining to think that Rangers and Hearts, realising they've not a hope of the league, are trying to make the 'challenge' so ridiculous it undermines Celtic's win. the problem is it is Title: Re: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: Rod Paradise on January 01, 2007, 06:06:34 PM I'm worried we'll sign him TBH. If the rumours about his converstaion with Strachan on the pitch at Ibrox are to be believed it's not too unlikely....
On his game he'd be a great player, but he avoids too many games IMHO. Title: Re: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: Bazzaboy on January 01, 2007, 06:07:04 PM stilll no offical word on the rangers website.. Should make interesting reading. But if past events are anything to go with we will be left in the dark as to the real reasons behind it. Title: Re: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: Ironside on January 01, 2007, 06:41:44 PM well i heard fergie wanted ECL football next season and le guen told him that if he wanted it he will have to goto aberdeen
only problem is we would struggle to pay him a year what he is used to earning a week Title: Re: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: bobby1 on January 01, 2007, 07:26:48 PM Very strange goings on but it would all make some sense if they are selling him/player wants a move now the transfer window is open.
Title: Re: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: Teacake on January 01, 2007, 08:15:55 PM If this is true & Ferguson has played his last game under Le Goon then as far as I can see there will be only one winner & he doesn't speak French!
BF is Ronjeurs only decent player, bar Prso, & hes Ronjeurs through & through, Murray must be brickin it as they go into meltdown! Title: Re: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: Div on January 01, 2007, 09:42:51 PM Dodgy Dave's thought process probably goes - one must stay, one must go.
PLG to go - income: nil, cost: paying off him and Colleau plus other backroom staff Bazza to go - income: several million by punting him immediately, cost: nil Makes the decision easy when you are as skint as Rangers. Title: Re: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: matt674 on January 01, 2007, 10:24:17 PM The Chairman has obviously backed his decision so he can hardly do that then sack him a month or two later..or can he?? Nothing would surprise me at the minute. Why not, we gave our manager a 3 year extension to his 1 year contract after only 5 weeks - then we got rid some 10 days later!! :D Title: Re: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: Bazzaboy on January 01, 2007, 11:08:33 PM Dodgy Dave's thought process probably goes - one must stay, one must go. PLG to go - income: nil, cost: paying off him and Colleau plus other backroom staff Bazza to go - income: several million by punting him immediately, cost: nil Makes the decision easy when you are as skint as Rangers. Wouldn't surprise me tbh Title: Re: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: Scottish Dave on January 01, 2007, 11:47:15 PM I think the funniest think about this story, and one that no-one has yet mentioned is.....
Gavin Rae has been appointed the new Captain...lol....are you serious!!!!!!! Title: Re: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: Tinsel Town on January 02, 2007, 12:17:46 AM I think the funniest think about this story, and one that no-one has yet mentioned is..... Gavin Rae has been appointed the new Captain...lol....are you serious!!!!!!! Lol. That's what I was thinking. Le Guen doesn't get it. The Captaincy is important to OF fans and this decision is basically him takin the p*sh out of this tradition. Tactically ,Celtic sources should now spread rumours we are after Barry. This will increase the pressure on Murray, Le Guen and the team. Remember this is exactly what Murray did to Celtic back in 1989 when he signed 'petit merde'. Causing Civil war at Snake Mountain should now be Celic's priority. Anyway I'm luvin' it ;D ;D ;D Td Th Title: Re: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: Div on January 02, 2007, 04:49:39 PM Maybe PLG is looking to eclipse Still Game in the New Year entertainment stakes.

No money to spend, a rinky-dink team and now a Chairman who rather listen to the captain (who wasn't playing that well anyways) then let the manager pick his team.

Depends if Walter gets money to spend.... IMHO the current sad state of Rangers and Hearts is dragging the league down, not long after things looked to be on the up. There's an apathy about the Celtic support as well at the moment, it's no fun if they don't even try..... Title: Re: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: Sark79 on January 04, 2007, 04:19:58 PM They said on R5 Live that he may not have been aware of the intense pressure put on managers/teams regarding the old firm games in Scotland. Surely there is less pressure being a Rangers manager than that of another league such as France, there is only really one other team in the Scottish league they have to try to beat each year. Isn't there the same rivalry between Liverpool and Everton for example? . I am not knowledgeable (sp?) about football, but the Scottish pundits comments on R5 confused me regarding him not knowing of the pressure involved while managing Rangers or Celtic in Scotland.

My tip for next manager of the darkside is Billy Davies.

They always talk about people underestimating the pressure of the old firm matches. IMO it's bollox. There's pressure everywhere but atleast this way they can make it sound like an old firm match really is a big deal (admittedly it is in scotland but this season it wasn't really as none expected Rangers to even draw). PLG had Lyon in the CL for fecks sake. the man understands pressure fine. He just didn't get any time or any serious money to spend. David Murray has done a lot for Rangers of that there is no doubt but it's time for him to move out so someone can take them to the next level as at the moment it's sub-standard for any league.

I think you both miss the point, the pressure doesn't come with the quality of the league. In Glasgow 2nd is last, that may be insular & parochial but its also true, in France footy isn't that important. Title: Re: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: boldie on January 04, 2007, 04:50:11 PM I get that but..if rangers had been in second the problem wouldn't have been that great. Murray should have stood by him for atleast another season IMO. sacking a manager after 7 months just goes to show that he has no idea where he wants to take the club..and aslong as that happens they will always be second.
Title: Re: Has Le Guen Finaly lost it and finally put the last nail in his cofin Post by: Rod Paradise on January 04, 2007, 04:58:19 PM Rumours abound that Le Guen will be announced as the new Paris St Germain manager over the weekend, so has he engineered the escape?

Murray should have stood by him for atleast another season IMO. sacking a manager after 7 months just goes to show that he has no idea where he wants to take the club..and aslong as that happens they will always be second. Yes but he took on one of only 2 guys at the club he could never beat at a time when he was 17 points behind Celtic. Ferguson is the guy most Rangers fans can relate to, hes a Rangers man born & bred & is steeped in the tradition of the club (I'm not saying I agree with this but thats the way it works) BTW Murray doesn't sack managers :D & he knows exactly where he wants to take them, he wants to sell up & get the f*ck out of Dodge!

A genuine battle is good news. Admittedly it is good seeing the other side suffer and I'm sure the Celtic fans are pissing themselves at the minute but the lack of competition gets a bit boring after a while. When the league is done and dusted by Christmas it does no one any good, just look at Celtics recent attendances.
