Major Rangers management update from Sky Sports News | OneFootball

Rangers fans today went into complete meltdown amid rumour and counter-rumour about Kevin Thelwell, Steven Gerrard, and Kevin Muscat. There was a whole lot going on around midday on Wednesday the 15th of October, and we must say, it seems like absolutely none of it came true. The biggest update that we tangibly got was from Sky Sports News amid Rangers manager chaos.

Muscat

The main breaking story from Sky Sports News and reporter Adam Binnie is the continued prominence of Kevin Muscat as top choice. Despite those incredible overnight odds where Steven Gerrard went to evens, it appears that was a fallacy, an aberration caused by some mad bet that must have been carried out the previous day to affect the numbers. It does, however, seem like it was a false dawn. There is no sign yet of any sacking of Kevin Thelwell, that was just a rumour, it appears. However, Muscat still seems to be the top choice, as covered by Ibrox Noise.

Title

The Australian manager, a former Rangers player himself, is challenging for the title in China with Shanghai Port and is near the end of the season. It would, of course, be absolutely dire to have him come now. He will not leave China before the title is won or at least the season is concluded one way or the other. He is, however, still under contract even when the title is decided, if it can be done in the next game or two. This means he’s under contract till December, and it would be up to his current employer if they were to allow him to leave now rather than at the very end of his deal. That point was echoed by Glasgow World.

As for the overall rumours, it was chaos. Rangers fans were being drowned under so much hope, news, expectation, claim, and counter-claim. We must admit that ITK fans are an absolute pain, because 99% of them know absolutely nothing. Ibrox Noise would not claim to be in possession of a monopoly on the truth. We get information just like everybody else, we have our sources just like everybody else, and we’ll get things wrong, plenty wrong, just like everybody else.

4lads

Even 4Lads seem to have got a bunch wrong this time around as well. If 4Lads get things wrong, you know everybody’s vulnerable. We’ve never seen so much nonsense on social media as we have over this one. This story, since Russell Martin was fired, has really ramped up the levels of absolute falsehoods and untruth. The level of fake news on this one has been unlike anything we’ve seen before. Ibrox Noise has certainly got the odd thing wrong as well. We hold our hand up there; we can’t get it all right all the time.

We’ve had a lot of abuse over things that we have had right, simply because users didn’t understand what we were trying to say. But the simple fact is this: Muscat is still the favourite. Sky Sports are about the only reliable source on this particular story as things go. And the Surrey manager may well become our manager in time. But that’s about the most tangible thing we have right now, and that’s about all there is to it. Rangers manager chaos Continues.
