Punter pleads for Rangers to make next boss dream to come true as left-field former star craved – Hotline

Gio van Bronckhorst doesn't fear the sack as Rangers boss but having Duncan Ferguson hovering over his shoulder would give anyone the willies. That's what one punter wants, though.

The Dutchman is a man under pressure and one Hotline caller has called for Bannockburn's favourite son to replace him in the Ibrox hotseat. Stephen Johnstone, Ardentinny , emailed: "Van Bronckhorst gets a stay of execution despite a poor performance against Motherwell as Rangers scraped a win but they will need to be on the ball against Dundee United in the Scottish cup midweek and going by recent results one can see United winning. Rangers will soon be looking for a new manager and there's only one man fit to manage us and it's Duncan Ferguson. It's time to come home and restore the glory days Big Dunc."

John Scott, Grassmoor, said: "For a Rangers fan, Hotline regular Andrew Lamb has an unnatural interest in Hibs. However, in fairness he's probably correct about Ryan Porteous having no chance getting signed up by Celtic. Mainly given Celtic won't get near Ryan as Rangers will have Easter Road surrounded ready to snap him up on a pre-contract come January."

Andrew Lamb, Fraserburgh, said: "Despite the bluster from Ange Postecoglou, would it be a bad thing if Scottish clubs didn't make it to the Champions League,? Let's be honest, we have neither the funding model nor the skill required to do anything other then make up the numbers."

C. Strachan said: "Everyone needs to take a reality check. The Champions League will never be won again by a team outside of England, Spain, Germany, Italy, maybe France the rest are also-rans. Money has killed the game. Pundits, commentators, journalists and fans have to stop kicking the Old Firm when
