Former Rangers chief Ally McCoist believes Frank Lampard is a man who will revive the sick Giants.
Lampard’s stock fell in England after being insidious in Everton and Chelsea, where they drew him as a guardian of the last few weeks of the 2022-23 season after he was running the club 18 months ago.
But he made a strong impression with Coventry, and nine wins from his last 10 championship games saw them fall into the playoff positions.
Lampard signed a contract for two and a half years when Sky Blues appointed it in November 2024, but this did not prevent McCoist from taking it to Ibrox.
Former Scottish striker, who managed the Rangers from 2011 to 2014, said Talk betting: “The Rangers were supposed to go to Frank Lampard before he went to Coventry.
“I have said that for some time and I think he could have been like Steven Gerrard in the way they came to the club with famine to succeed, because I always thought he was overly criticized for some results in his previous jobs. He seems to have found his feet.”

“I have to admit that Barry Ferguson’s meeting surprised me; I thought it left the field, “McCoist added.” I am a Rangers fan and I want the guys to work well, but it surprised me with the other fans – although that doesn’t mean we’re not all behind him.
“I was not surprised because Philippe Clement lost his job. I understand, I personally thought he could have the opportunity because of their European results, but I see why you would get a bag from the back of the Queen’s Park and Matterwell defeat.
“They are so far away from the Celtic in the league and out of the Cup, they were not good enough in the country. I was not surprised and I will never say that I am pleased to see that the manager is released, but I was not disappointed.”
Gerrard was also mentioned to return to Rangers after leading them to the title of Scottish Premiership in 2021, and McCoist would not have been opposed to it.

I can guarantee you that with the new owners coming, the Rangers job will be strongly sought after and I hope that they will be able to attract the right man to take them forward.”
