Rangers issue a statement on their website saying Mark Warburton has resigned.

15 minutes later, Warburton issues a statement denying his resignation.

All very bizarre!

    Perhaps people have seen trainspotting 2 and figured out the password for the Ranger's website?

    Sounds like they thought they had an offer from Forest (which Clough will take in the summer) which then never came. Now hung out to dry by the Rangers board.

    I for one have to salute Meire and Duchatelet for securing such a high profile and successful manager as Mark Warburton.

    I think if we all get behind him, forget the protests and back the team this will turn out to be the right appointment.

    I know people will want to go on about mistakes in the past just to further their own agendas but move on. Let's see what the squad looks like in August.

    Sounds like their representatives have fucked up thinking they were about to receive a better offer.

    Haha nae joy!

    It's the fact that it's not funny that makes it funny.............

    Bingo. I get a good laugh at people going mental at why it's been posted. Just a Charlton life meme.

    He did a good job to start with and getting Rangers out of the second tier where Ally & McCall failed will go down in history. But Celtic are striding ahead with their millions from the Champions League and it's so hard to catch them, but he did a really bad job of it

    They were never going to seriously challenge for the title this season, no Rangers fan expected it TBH, but, the gap in quality and some of the signings left a lot to be desired for such a big club.
    Did a fantastic job last season winning the Championship title, and reaching the cup final after the amazing win against the sporting wing of the ira.

    I say fair play to the board, they were getting played by MW, DW & FMCP who were touting themselves to Forest, and they took swift action and called their bluff, quite terminally, decisive action needed and taken, if they didn't want to be there, go.
    Seems the 3 backtracked very quickly after Gary Brazil was appointed at NFFC, too late.

    IMO, they will have no problem in attracting an established successful manager, now they are back in the SPL, who that might be, I don't have a clue.

    Bizaire, football is just a world of indecision, strange decisions and utter bewilderment these days. Rangers thinking after 1 season back in their premiership they could challenge Celtic.

    I don't think that's what anyone (save a few nutters) thought, Celtic are miles away, but I don't think anyone thought the recruitment and gap would bd as bad as it is.

    There were rumours about this last week. Even Celtic hater Adrian Durham was talking about this last week. Although i hate them he has done a great job there.
