Danny Röhl back in the frame! Obviously some compromise was found over something. Soap opera stuff.

Dyche seemingly on his way to Forest, really feel like we’ve missed massively there.

So Rohl has been appointed. Hopefully can turn things around but time will tell. Still leaves the question about who will have final say on which players are signed.

Rangers Confirm Danny Rohl As Head Coach

RANGERS Football Club today confirms the appointment of Danny Röhl as men’s first-team head coach.

Röhl was most recently in charge of Sheffield Wednesday, and now joins Rangers on an initial two-and-a-half-year deal.

Röhl brings experience from some of Europe’s top football environments, having begun his coaching career at RB Leipzig, where he progressed to assisting Ralph Hasenhuttl before following him to Southampton in 2018.

He then became assistant manager to Hansi Flick at Bayern Munich in 2019, helping the club win the Bundesliga, DFB Pokal, and UEFA Champions League in his first season. The following year saw Bayern retain the Bundesliga and add the UEFA Super Cup, DFL Supercup and FIFA Club World Cup before Röhl and Flick moved on to take charge of the German national team for the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

In October 2023, he became a manager for the first time, taking on the job at Sheffield Wednesday in the Championship. They were bottom of the table and winless in their first 11 matches, but Röhl guided them to safety and then to a 12th-place finish last season, against a challenging backdrop.

Röhl will now assume the mantle of Head Coach at Ibrox. He starts immediately, with his first match in charge coming against SK Brann on Thursday in the UEFA Europa League.

Danny Röhl said: "It is a huge privilege to be taking on the role of Head Coach at such an incredible club, recognised around the world.

"I know it has been a difficult start to the season, but there is still so much to play for in four competitions, and my staff and I will give it everything to reward the supporters and the club.

The expectations here are clear. The fans want to see results now - my mentality and experience is to think in exactly the same way and I have belief in the players that we can achieve this.

"We have no time to waste, we start straight away. I respect that trust is earned and understand we have to give the supporters confidence in what we are doing by showing it on the pitch from the start.

"The expectations are huge and I love this challenge because I set high standards for myself and the team too.

Rangers is built on a tradition of hard work, unity and success - that is exactly what you will get from me and what I want my team to represent for all of you.

"I’m looking forward to meeting the squad and getting down to work ahead of Thursday’s game away to Brann."

Chairman Andrew Cavenagh commented: "We’re very pleased to welcome Danny to Rangers, an ambitious coach who shares the club’s hunger for progress and success. His experience at elite level, in high pressure environments, makes him a strong fit for what we expect here.

We know the past few months have been challenging, but our focus has always been on getting the right person, who is ready to immediately embrace this football club and the demands that come with it.

"Danny impressed us with his vision, his character, and his understanding of what Rangers stands for. We believe he can help restore pride, momentum, and ultimately success."

Vice Chairman Paraag Marathe said: "This has been a thorough process to ensure we identified the right person to lead the club forward.

"Danny clearly has tactical intelligence and a hunger to match the ambitions of Rangers. With Danny at the helm, we intend to compete through every minute on the pitch in all competitions."

Chief Executive Patrick Stewart said: "Danny brings real conviction, clarity and leadership to the role.

We know results this season have fallen below our expectations, but with Danny and his staff in place, we’re confident we can get this season back on track.

"It’s now our job to give him every support possible to move the club forward quickly and decisively."

Sporting Director Kevin Thelwell added: "Danny has the qualities required to succeed here, allied with being an exceptional coach.

"He has worked in some of the most demanding football environments in the world, where winning is the only expectation, and we believe that background has prepared him for Rangers.

His job will be to get the best out of the players and build a team that, first and foremost, wins, as we all target success this season.

  

I think Rohl, given time, will be a good appointment. Plays an attractive brand of football and did a lot with a little at Wednesday.

However I don’t think he’s the manager to come in and instantly change things, part of the reason I was so Pro-Dyche is the ‘instant’ impact he’d have had.

With the great unwashed having an uncharacteristically poor start it does feel like this season is going to be a major missed oppportunity.

First things first. He has to dress like a Rangers manager. Set the standard.

Looks like he got the message. How it should be.

not sure Sir Walter wore brown shoes with a navy suit though 😂

I think tonight is more about Rohl having a chance to see the players than anything we might learn about his approach.

Pretty lacklustre in any event

I would hope the players would try to impress the new boss, but they have been so poor.

TBH I don't see a lot of quality in this squad.

Outside of Butland I don’t think there’s another player that gets in an SPL XI let alone competing in Europe. Raskin maybe?

Butland is a fine goalie. Yes, he's made a few mistakes- which goalie hasn't - but has kept Rangers in many a game. I would have Raskin in a SPL XI but after that, not sure. Hopefully will be proved wrong.

WATP.

One of Röhl's biggest challenges is going to be undoing the damage Martin did to the players.

Decent goal. Come on Rangers!

Breathing space 3-1

Well done Rangers. Another great display and tribute to those in the Armed Forces.

Nice to see that Dermot Desmond didn’t mince his words in regards Rodgers.

Surely Ange isn’t going straight back?

Reading between the lines it seems doubtful.
