Does he mention Liverpool a lot now as manager of Rangers? Genuine question, as I've no idea.

He still wears his Liverpool shirt in training I've heard.

Went looking through a Rangers forum to see what they make of Gerrard coming here, as you do:





Nice meltdown.

There is some very strange reasoning going on in that thread, a lot of them seem stuck in 90s when half the England team played for them.

If anyone at all in the PL wanted him I’d expect him to have his head turned as, despite them being a huge club, they are hamstrung by the league they are in and cannon fodder every year in Europe. I’d be really surprised if Liverpool appointed him without a step between.

But its still a no from me anyway.

They are indeed a huge club. I've heard they're very thankful to one chap who has really helped to expand their fanbase in the US through some low key but countrywide organisation he runs that is sympathetic to Rangers' ethos and founding principles.

David Duke, I think it is.

Until recently, had some friends in high places, so I'm told.

Maybe we’re just getting revenge for the year 2000. We seem to be working our way through the main men from the 5 teams who finished above us in the 2000 league table.

If Gerrard comes off we’ll have bagged Roy Keane, John Terry, Gerrard, DO’L and, err, Pires) from the Teams above us that year

In fairness, it wouldn't be entirely on him.

Rangers are the big cheese up there and the press pack  in chilly Jocko land usually focus on the title race there and the rivalry with Celtic, from what I can gather.

Whereas the rotters down here will be peppering him with questions about Mo Salah's contract situation, that night in Istanbul and Klopp's formidable dental work.

I suppose my attitude to the Old Firm is more meh than anything else but it’s great to see that they really want him to stay as that dovetails nicely with us not wanting him to leave either.

Most of the time I saw him he was moaning about the ref And decisions
Proper Warnock moaning as well complaining like fuck especially if the result had gone against

Honestly came over as a total whining entitled nob

If he couldn't cope with the refereering decisions that Liverpool and "Rangers" get, he's in for something of a shock when he takes over at Villa.

he's been in a league where he's expected to win 80% of his games. This could be too big a step up at the moment for Gerrard.
