Giovanni’s confirmation that he ‘doesn’t know’ if he will remain manager reveals the truth that he has absolutely no intention of quitting Rangers and if the board want rid of him, they WILL have to pay the £5M to do so.
Speaking following the latest Rangers mess, the manager said:
“Of course, if we keep dropping points I am accountable for that. I give the instruction, that is my job. We prepare the players as best we can and they have to put in the performance, that is always the case. We are going to sit down that is for sure and think about the next couple of months and what way we are going to go. We have to see, it’s still football and if you have a run like this, a lot of things can happen but I have the backing of the board. They gave me confidence but in football, you never know. I have no fear, I never have any fear.”
The key phrase is ‘but in football, you never know’. This undoes every inch of defiance the manager seems to have in the rest of his commentary, and the phrase ‘I am accountable for that’ is the first time GVB has actually taken any responsibility for the malaise.
In fact, he’s actually pointing to the results, saying ‘that’s my fault’, and looking at the board and saying if they want that to stop, they’ll have to fire him.
While it may seem like our content has absolutely slaughtered Giovanni, we still do like the man – he remains a good Rangers man whose reign in Govan has just unfortunately gone wrong. We’ll pick apart the carcass of why in due course, but as things stand it’s a sinking ship, and the only way the club will start to float safely again is with fresh ideas.
This doesn’t vindicate the board in the slightest, they are very, very much hugely to blame for what’s happened at Rangers, and we’ll cover that in due course, but for now, the immediate change in the Ibrox hotseat is vital for improvement, even just short term.
But GVB has laid down the marker, effectively telling the board, publicly, that he’s not going to hand his resignation in.
If they want a new man in place, they’ll have to fork the cash out to pay for it.
“Unfortunately gone wrong”
He has been an absolute fucking disaster since he took over, l know you won’t ever say it like l do but it is the absolute truth, l now hate the man and l have zero sympathy or tolerance for him, its a bad day when you stop watching at half time on sky sports or RTV because it is simply too gut wrenching to watch
We don’t say it like that because that’s not true. Your language is too emotional Seb, and we’ve barely heard you say a single positive word about anyone at Ibrox.
Agreed IN, GVB should be respected . He has old strong ties with Rangers.
If GVB has any shred of decency in him and actually loved the club then he would step down and not try to hold out for a payment, nullifying any profit we made from last year. he has to go now, and he should step down and not wait to be fired.
Seb go somewhere else with your ridiculous views. NO ONE wants to listen to your nonsense. As I said before you are probably a Tim.
It’s not GVB It’s the players that are not performing plus were missing goldson. RTID 🇬🇧
The elephants in the room how many injured unavailable players due to injury. This is not the managers fault that the Scottish Premier league is full of clod hopers who hack more talented players than they can ever be you se it every game Rangers currently have 12 plus players out due to the hacking brigade.
I said this months ago. Gvb would not resign, as he would get millions if sacked, so he’s no mug.
I tell you what will get my dander up chaps ….see if /when gvb leaves ,these injured players all start coming back and the current crop find that “extra yard ” .
That will really annoy me ,as who else do you think they have been cheating ? yes US .
GVB is entititled to his cash ,he has tried and simply not good enough ,that is not a crime ,
perhaps gardening leave ,as one guy suggested ,if rangers cannot bear to part with 4 million big ones in one go ,or should that be gio .
