Joking aside, I would have preferred to see him work his way up. Whether you consider the Scottish League a joke and whether you love or hate Rangers, it's a high profile job, and a big platform to fail on...

He is working his way up. Other then Celtic, the standard of the Scottish PL is dismal...

Err. Including Celtic, the standard of the Scottish PL is dismal.

Celtic’s performances in the CL echo your statement.
Big step up. One thing is for sure, he will have a huge amount of respect from each player in that dressing room. As others have said the gulf between them and the top of the league is massive so maybe Stevie G will have to use a few of his contacts to get some players in this summer.

Well you clearly know something that the board haven’t told Gerrard during their 2-3 week negotiations, please enlighten us? Gerrard, his agent & Mcallister would have wanted cast iron guarantees regards investment before signing on the dotted line no doubt. So, unless they’ve been lied too, I’ll trust Gerard’s judgement.
In regards to the gulf in class, accepted, but that’s why they brought him in, to start trying to bridge that gulf, it wont happen next season, but they have to start somewhere, damned if they do, damned if they don’t, if they had brought in Karl Robinson, people would be shouting no ambition or small time etc

A name as big as his isn't going to start in the lower leagues. It's nice to see the Ranger's fans happy if nothing else. Apparently he supported them (and Everton) when he was younger.
The Board at Rangers are under huge pressure to deliver. There will be money, but it would be stupid to make that known at this stage.
His signing is good for football in general, but great for Scotland and has already started to create a buzz. There were 5,000 Rangers fans at Ibrox to welcome him today.
Really hope this works out for the sake of Scottish football which is so so poor at the moment.

And boards of football clubs are so honest aren't they

Good luck Steven, if you can get Rangers competitive again in the league and Europe you will become a legend.
It’s been painful supporting rangers recently and I really hope he will turn the corner. Selfishly, I would love to see him do well apart from being a rangers fan I would love to see more English managers in the top flight and this gives him a good opportunity to get there.
Crazy move for both him and Rangers, they need a slow, methodical rebuild from someone who has done it successfullly before - instead they take the easy option of a big name.

Hope it goes well for him and the gers!
