I think that's key, saying that they want him.
I remember back in the time when it was Sunderland and Rangers wanted McInnes and they were dilly-dallying.
They didn't go and get him.
I know he maybe turned it down, but you've got to understand that at the time it was as if Rangers were doing him a favour, employing him.
It was as if they weren't sure on him and I think that's why he got cold feet.
I genuinely do.
And you can't blame him because he had a good thing at Aberdeen and going to a place where he knew the structure wasn't right at Rangers at the time, I think it's been proven.
And he thinks, well, if I go and get my dream job, no offence to Aberdeen, but, and I get sacked after a year, where do I go?
Whereas now, Rangers in a place where it's probably the strongest I've seen Rangers since 2010, 2011, in terms of structure, players, everything about them.
And I think it's the perfect time for him.
And I think it's the perfect time for Rangers to employ him.
Which he's good at, that's what he is.
He's a very good manager.
I don't think he's going to be the one that takes every training drill, but he'll make sure the boys feel 10 feet tall, that's for sure.
The only way Hearts will become...
on kind of par with Rangers in terms of spending power is if they continue doing all this the analytics stuff where they can build and make fortunes and kind of get a buzz about Edinburgh's massive we know that but historically Celtic and Rangers are big teams Hearts have got potential they might not reach Celtic and Rangers level but if they keep buying players for a million pounds selling them for five six they'll make a lot of money and that's what Tony Bloom's done he's improved
Union St.
Joie and he's improved Brighton now at the moment there's no world where McInnes would have turned down Rangers even if he won the league with 10 points or whatever it was the case I just think that it was a match made in heaven and I think that McInnes was always going to go I think everybody knew that he was probably destined for the Rangers job at one point now that's no slight on Hearts Hearts now want a different type of manager that's the way Jamestown works McInnes
probably wouldn't be the typical Jamestown manager halfway through the project but at the start he helped get them up and running he helped get the club going in a new direction but I think they probably need now more of a head coach to bring players play all the Jamestown players and develop them and make money that is the model and I think it works well for both parties to be honest
Yeah, it was only the first two that didn't, and then they went back and kind of corrected that.
