GOOD NEWS:Kris Boyd Confirm new manager few minutes ago…
The Ibrox hero thinks a “strong character” is essential after Martin was sacked on Sunday night.
Club chiefs dismissed Martin hours after a 1-1 draw with Falkirk, leaving Rangers eighth in the table, 11 points behind Hearts.
Boyd sees three standout candidates for the job, including one “obvious” choice in Sean Dyche.
He told Sky Sports News: “Steven Gerrard’s a name that’s never gone away.
“Frank Lampard’s name was another one that was mentioned.
I know he’s doing some wonderful things at Coventry City, but is that out of the equation now?
“The obvious one for me would be Sean Dyche.
“Kevin Thelwell worked with him in the past, and he seems to have a lot of say in the players that are coming in.”
Boyd believes Dyche has the ability to rebuild the club, saying: “If that relationship with Dyche is still there, he would be someone that I would maybe look to because he’s shown that he can build football clubs up.
“Rangers need a strong character that’s going to build it not only on the pitch but off the pitch at the training centre.
“It just seems to be so broken, disjointed, and they’re going to have to find a way to fix it.”
A Rangers statement confirmed Martin’s dismissal: “Rangers Football Club confirms that it has parted company with Head Coach, Russell Martin.
“While all transition periods require some time, results have not met the club’s expectations.
“Assistant Head Coach, Matt Gill, and First-Team Coach, Mike Williamson, will also be departing.”
