Who's rewriting history btw? Are you assuming?
End of the day he's a top manager, certainly for our level. That's all I care aboutVery good appointment from the club. Our foot has been on your throat for years and years, and I suspect it will remain firmly there
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Except that year was it your own mouth.
That was a good one

He won an invincible treble, collecting over 100 points aswell though. As I say, whoever finishes first is all that matters
I'm sure he is very aware of what is required

As I’ve said numerous times already, I didn’t want BR back. Not a lot any of us can do about it mind, beyond stating that.
BUT for all his flaws, are any Bears seriously thinking/suggesting that Micky Beale is, or ever will be, a better manager? Laughable if so, given he’s achieved the square root of hee haw in either of his managerial stints to date.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not sure how you can say he will never be better. If you were to compare Rodgers first year in Management vs Beale's then there's nothing to suggest Beale can't have a better career.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Anything’s possible, I guess. Can’t see the likes of Liverpool ever coming calling for Beale though. At QPR he had a great initial 2-3 months, but the wheels had very much come off by the time he left in late Nov (P22, W9, D5, L8) … and to date he’s won hee haw in a 2 horse race up here. Time will tell obvs.
Always a rat bastirt, never a rat bastirt.
There's not one manager in the SPFL i can recall ever going into a big PL job.
Ange is about as close as it comes but you would be ridiculed on these boards calling Spurs big when they've won well absolutely fook all.

Who said anything about the likes of Liverpool coming in for Beale while he’s at Rangers. The point was EVER … as in comparing his credentials with BR’s. Spurs won’t be calling either though, now you mention it.

this was in reference to points totals that do not win the league keep up
Some vivid imagination going on here from the bears.
Think it’s fair to say that the manner in which Rodgers left us so close to the season end was almost universally raged at by the support. As for me, I just didn’t get it. No reason he couldn’t have stayed for the final few games.
What compounded it was the permanent appointment of Lennon where we simply disintegrated.
Postecoglou has done pretty much the same thing but stayed to the end of the season. Universally lauded by the support. See the difference?
No doubt that Rodgers will have learned and matured since his absence and with playing EPL teams week in and week out must have given him far greater knowledge, tactics and the like. We’ll be glad of them no doubt.
My issue is with the board and not Rodgers per se. They appear to have had no back up plan and no go to shortlist. That is unforgivable in my eyes. I started to get bored watching Rodgers teams playing. It was turgid at times, yet he won every domestic trophy going on his watch. I hope his time down south brings a better attacking style. We’ll see.
To suggest he is a poor coach/manager is both laughable and pathetic.
Beale has done nothing to date and shows no signs of doing so. He’s going to still have to make significant signings to get a squad together and then to expect them to just blend and hit the ground is fanciful and sheer hope.
If we go with trends as has been mentioned then Celtic will dominate for years to come. And gather up all the financial benefits.
I don’t think next season will be much of a contest at all in all honesty.
And I’m looking forward to see who he now targets to sign.
Should be interesting.
Given the depths of desperation the rangers support have sunk to in these modern times I find it hard to take anything they say seriously

His new knowledge and tactics learned down there served Leicester well
I'd say it did. A floundering team after their surprising league win with the team back where many would expect a Leicester to be. Rodgers got them to 5th place twice, narrowly missing out of CL. Won the FA Cup.
Then the owners cut the funding. I believe their business was around duty free and with no travel they cut the football side of it. So, now there was a Leicester trying to play Rodgers style football, not rejuvinating the team with sufficient quality while the style hadn't changed to suit.
Or do we not count the seasons when the points total was good? Do we only count the bad seasons? I can't remember what the rules are from Rangers fans on here

Is that you now offering your unconditional support
Hang on though he took over when they had finished 9th two seasons running and won the league the season before that.
He improved them by a lofty 4 places and the longer he stayed the worse they got.
Going by the same rationale did Lennon second time round do a great job? After all he won every trophy going and it was only one bad season. So why would you not recognise that as a terrific job instead of saying you would never want him back?
Although in fairness based on the track record you would only not want him back until DD does in which case you would deny ever saying that and all hail your great leader.
Lennon will never be welcomed back as manager
Rangers collapsed the second half of our 9IAR season. Total catastrophic collapse.

They only count the pre seasons.
I'm not having a go but why then is it different for Lennon than Rodgers as you could argue Rangers collapsed the second half of the 8 in a row season too?
In fact Rangers were closer at the winter break that season than they were the year after under Lennon.
Lennon won a treble and two league titles in three years, undone by a bad last season when he was sacked/resigned. If you say Rodgers overall did a good job at Leicester and it was only one bad final season surely the same applies to Lennon and he should be remembered fondly?

Big difference for me is blood and snotters only lasts so long. A good tactical manager can (hopefully) adapt and continue success - albeit Rodgers seems to do it after a few years at different clubs, he has never done a rebuild at a team either by sacking or by leaving.
Lennon was blood and snotters. He took over from Mowbray and "brought back the thunder". Tried to be more Martin O'Neill but without the style. It worked and he had players running through brick walls but that will always eventally be outdone but a decent footballing side and if your approach wears off on the players
