Rangers are on the hunt for a new manager after the sacking of Michael Beale, and talkSPORT pundit Simon Jordan has given his backing to a 74-year-old Englishman out of work at the moment.
Michael Beale has been sacked as the Rangers manager after a run of poor results in the Scottish Premiership.
I am not surprised.
Rangers were not playing well under Beale this season, and results in the league were bad.
It was only a matter of time before Rangers got rid of Beale.
And now the Scottish Premiership giants are on the hunt for a replacement manager.
Neil Warnock backed to become new Rangers manager
According to former Crystal Palace owner Simon Jordan, Rangers should hand the job to Neil Warnock.
Jordan, who now works as a pundit for talkSPORT, has worked with Warnock before, and he believes that the 74-year-old English manager would be perfect for Rangers.
The pundit said on talkSPORT (10:40am, October 2, 2023): “I would advocate for Neil, even at this stage of his career. He is 72 years young, he is not 72 years old.
“Knowing Neil as I know him, I know that he would kick backsides and take numbers up there.
“I know that he would get the fans onside.
“I know that Warnock can do that job in his sleep.
“I know that he can lift them.”
Rangers unlikely to look at Neil Warnock
In my view, Rangers are not going to make a move for Neil Warnock.
Yes, we all know how good Warnock is.
The 74-year-old is one of the best managers around and has a wealth of experience.
Warnock saved Huddersfield Town from getting relegated from the Championship at the end of last season.
He loves managing teams and loves football.
However, Warnock would be a short-term appointment.
Rangers need to look for a manager who can help the team in the medium to long term and get them back to winning the Scottish Premiership title.
