I think you are right @Kid in the Riot and I don’t think the money required would be an issue to SL. He could always be employed ‘off the books’.

I think SG might want a way out, he will not want to be the Rangers Manager If Celtic win 10 in a row, which is almost inevitable as the Teddy Bears are broke.

No he couldn't. That would break all sorts of rules.

Probably been mentioned but SG is on approx £2.5M a year.  We’re not going to pay + that, are we? 

Where are people getting this Gerrard salary figure from? I’m not saying you’re wrong, but Rangers pay their players an average of £12k a week (source: Global Sports Salaries Survey January 2020) - and the survey believes that Rangers average weekly pay figure has been artificially inflated by the likes of Jermain Defoe joining them - so lots of players aren’t earning anywhere near £12k a week at Ibrox.... and  it wasn’t so long ago that Rangers’ average pay for their players was £6k per week, and at that time Celtic’s average player wage was £16k per week. 

Given all that, would the Gers realistically shell out four times their average weekly players’ pay to their manager? I’ve seen figures of over £2m per year bandied about by the likes of The Daily Express newspaper - but has anyone got a more robust source than that?!

Really? Could be employed at £1m as our manger / head coach and £1.5 m as a ‘consultant’ to Bristol Sport - job done.

Certainly would not happen. FFP will include regs to outlaw anything like that.

I don't believe so, they wouldn't make the same mistakes so soon surely.

See if Dunder fancy adjusting their investment, Hughton can wear a Dunder shirt to every game and get paid the rest by them....

He's travelled with their squad, there are photo's of him on their website confirming this so if he is the top target then nothing appears imminent.

Keeping under the radar.

A report in the Scottish Sun, I’m not saying it is right, but that’s where it is.

Whatever people’s own views of The Sun they understand their readership so get a lot right in football terms.

It is still written for people with a reading age of about 6, though..

Sorry, have I offended you in some way, it's more than just me who's "cast doubt" on your mate's story .

Oh I'm so sorry, would you like me to quote some of their replies too?

Open a window or something. Never know, Gerrard might stick his head in.

Hughton the proven performer at this level and Gerrard the big name that has not managed in the Football league let alone the Championship and has therefore won nothing as a manager. SL for once make the right choice and pick Hughton 

I think most of us would have Hughton as our preferred appointment over Gerrard (in a two horse race), but what if the no1 choice falls at the last fence?

Spot on. If SL wants Gerrard, FFS go for Hughton.
