... yes? I said he had the second best team by a country mile and led them to... second.

He really needs the Scottish Cup. The league has gone. Win that and he gets another season or two.

Liverpool are currently 22 points clear at the top of the premier league. It’s not uncommon for one team to be dominant in a domestic league.
I had expected Rangers to kick on this season under Gerrard mind you.

He’s spent alot of money for that league(you’d think rangers would learn after going bankrupt) but soon as they sell Moreles(spelling?) in the summer they’ll recoup their spending.
I reckon he has another season in him up there, if they don’t win the league he’ll walk away as it’s a pressure cooker in Glasgow with those clubs.

Two comments stick out on this thread “he’s done brilliant at Rangers” and “he’s over achieved”.
The fact is he’s consistently come second in a two horse race, he’s won absolutely nothing and last season he gained 3pts on Celtic, the way this season’s going that gap is only going to get bigger. Can’t see where all the praise is coming from tbh.

So pretty much what was happening at SMB during the Rochdale second half, when the team slowed down and Parky didn't make any substitutions

Nail on the head a one horse race in England effectively Celtic are 7 points clear given Gers will win their game in hand still a long way to go.

Brilliant at Rangers is winning trophies.
Bottled it after the winter break two seasons in a row.
Yep which gets lost in a lot of the discussion. Despite how good defoe is he's now the highest paid player in Scotland and he's 38

Gerrard came across quite disrespectful in the way he shook Lennon's hand and the overall over-exuberant celebrating. Looks like its come back to bite them in the arse

I think that defeat at Hearts the other week shook his self confidence and the team's. He said he was shocked at the time at how his side lacked the bottle when it was needed.
They were poor against Stranraer, had a result at Hamilton that hid the true story (winning 4-1 looks good, but going into the last 10 minutes at 1-1 tells something different) and once again threw away a lead against a side who did nothing more than outwork them.
At least Gerrard fronted up to what he sees as his own failings as well as his players. If he's thrown the team under the bus, he's jumped in with them too. He knows he was brought in to stop 9 in a row. Now 10 in a row looms on the 2021 horizon as well as a 4th successive treble this season.
If the future's bright, then it seems the future's not orange.

For the money they've spent he's done a shite job so far.

Has the Scottish league ever been any different when both Rangers and Celtic have been in it?

Gerrard has done a decent job. Just look at the European results
I think he'll go on to be a decent manager

Jordan Henderson to take over as manager and win another league that Gerrard wasn't capable of

Even winning titles with the old firm is hardly indicative of being great manager, and certainly in no way means you're going to be successful South of the border.
Souness, Walter Smith, Alex Mcleish all won titles, cups etc in Scotland, how did they get on in England?
Think Gerrard should've gone the route Lampard did and taken a Championship club. Scotlands a bit of waste time unless you take a club like Hibs or Hearts etc.

Will never ever ever happen
people have been saying wait for this to happen for as long as I can remember (40 odd years)
it will never happen
Fergie broke their dominance in the 80's, winning it 3 times in 6 years, quite impressive to think he broke both the Old Firm hold on the Scottish League and Liverpools on the English
nobody else has won it since
