    They'll want to get their hands on those Yankee $ to fund recruitment.
    Considering Celtc just earned £38m for flopping in Europe, the Yanks are going to have to shell out millions to to play catch up.

    Maybe we can get the music man at Hibs to play "Working for the Yankee dollar" the next time the The Rangers come to town

    Aren’t there tighter financial rules coming in from UEFA so they might not be allowed huge expenditure.

    Yes, new rules relating to spending not exceeding turnover. It’s more strict than the likes of Chelsea, Man City and PSG were able to spend after takeovers, for example, but it could still be a huge boost for a club that has been relying upon loans from its owners to keep the lights on. Time will tell.

    It’s odd timing to sack Clement, IMO. They’re finishing second this season regardless, they’re out of the cups but they’re going well in Europe. Unless they have a replacement lined up I can’t imagine who’d want to take over such a poisoned chalice of a role so it’s unlikely we’ll see a significant upturn in fortunes.

    Big time. The laptop loyal in the media have been celebrating it like it’s a lottery win.
    Just waiting for the 1st Gerrard to Rangers rumour 🙄

    I suspect the noise from influential supporters groups was deafening, and just too much to ignore now, as you say its a bit of a risk at this time, but Gerrard for 3 months would probably appease the baying mobs, who they will be asking to put their hand in their pocket for next year soon, and I suspect currently next years ST money is probably already spoken for.

    Agree on the odd timing, given the Euro run. Mind you the Queens Park result was a belter . Surely Derek McInnes will be front runner? Can't see the hordes being overly enthused about him this time around either.

    I think it's all in hand.
    The 49'ers take over has been cooking for a while and they will want to choose their own manager.
    To that end Rangers, 3 weeks ago, brought in a Moroccan as assistant manager, Issame Charrai, just in case Jigsaw Clement's Rangers went to pieces and they needed to replace him with an interim until the summer.
    Queens Park with a St Mirren chaser has seen that come to pass with the hordes revolting and I expect Charrai to be wheeled into place to look after the shop until the 49'ers managerial appointment.

    I don’t know if he’d take it. He seems pretty sensible with the jobs he takes.

    Charrai was born and raised in Belgium and spent his playing career there, from the little I can find it seems the Moroccan connection came later? Anyway, it seems coincidental that the American group brought in a Belgian to assist a fellow Belgian so I'd be curious to learn who drove his appointment.

    Charrai took over this month from Andries Ulderink who left Rangers for 'personal' reasons. There appeared to be no previous professional connection between Clement and Charrai with Rangers recruitment guy wheeling him into place.
    Charrai led the Morocco Under-23's to the African Cup of Nations title. Maybe Rangers hope him and Igamane will be pied pipers of Ibrox who have the best young Moroccan talent arriving in Glasgow as Ange did at Cellik with the Japanese guys.

    Hopefully they win every game other than against us for the rest of the season.

    They then get the jobs full time and subsequently get relegated.

    Going by the religious persuasion of the proposed new owners should be “We are the Papal”.

    Someone mentioned to me that Slippy would have to pay back a couple of million dollars to the Saudis if he took another job within two years of leaving.
    I suppose with the imminent £100billion investment (Daily Ranger) they can pay that for him!
