I’m not really convinced myself that he’s genuinely knocked back 3 clubs, and the only place I’ve read that is on here.

1, I can imagine slipping through the net-especially if it was a championship team.

Gerrard knocking back 2 EPL teams as well, and never been mentioned before?!

I have my doubts. Sorry Smid.

so what difference would it make if I told you what they were? You would only pick which clubs you thought were realistic and as many have you have already said you don't believe that includes an EPL club. It's pointless.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

It would make me reassess my belief for starters, but it's not any of the 3 mentioned above

Rangers would have been crowing about it in seeing off EPL teams for their manager.

tbf I dont think many clubs would come out and acknowledge that a manager had rejected them, very little to gain from that

How could they reject something without knowing about it?

It's hardly an unnamed Chinese team with a £40M offer

If you think it works any other way in football your niave. Its perfectlly legal to pick up the phone to speak with your "friend" Stephen. Dave King had an informal talk with Gerrard before officially approaching him and Liverpool

Fulham and Sheffield United are the only 2 I can think of that maybe thought about him.

Offering him the job thought, hmmm.

Ooooh.

This gets better.

So not only was he approached by three different clubs to manage them; he also knocked all of them back.

And it was all done without a single person at Rangers knowing anything at all about any of the 3 entirely separate approaches.

That's a fwcking shambles right there. Even Smid could have told them

Iv not made any claim about Gerrard being approached by anyone have I?

Im saying if you think that people get the permission of the club before testing the waters of any manager or player for that matter then your niave

I didn't claim you did.

Equally I know clubs tend to drop the hint unofficially and maybe have someone test the water, so no naivety from me.

Defending someone who has posted absolutely fwck all evidence on a "claim" I'd suggest is naive.

No matter, as I said Smid can let Rangers know. They should be kept up to date don't you agree?

You're all a bunch of doubting Thomas's (es?)

He's had the opportunity to leave 3 times down South. 2 EPL & 1 Championship. Although in fairness the EPL might have been in the process of or imminently crossing over to the Championship at the time from memory. I haven't said any more or less than that so if others want to start adding or removing things thats up to them.

Probably not too difficult to work out though from the manager profiles who have gone to the same clubs.

TBF Villa paying compo for Gerrard might suit Rangers if it helps them limp through to next year's financials without having to sell a player?

posted on 9/11/21

Ok we can figure this out.

What clubs would be ok with a loser with 1 in 9 success rate and arent bothered about winning cups?
