Thread: Celtic make Billy Davies top target as new manager

Also anyone who covets the job as manager of the Huns must be considered as bitter. I would question why that is his dream job. Anyone from these parts know what they stand for, so if it his dream to represent them then he must be bitter.

Very true.

I would rather have Tony Mowbray Back with John Barnes as his Assistant and Liam Brady as director of football

he will not get the job guys, no chance

Nottingham Forest manager Billy Davies has revealed an ambition to become R*ngers boss before his career ends.

The 45-year-old is looking to steer Forest to the English Premier League via the play-offs this season.

And the former R*ngers player believes a stint in England's top flight could precede a move to Ibrox.

He told BBC Alba's Spors programme: "I'm very open-minded with regards to the future. I would love to, no doubt, someday manage Glasgow R*ngers."

Davies, a midfielder who was a fringe player at Ibrox for a three-year period from 1981, added: "Whether it's in 10 years, 15 years - whatever."

The Forest manager said his immediate focus was on gaining promotion from the Championship this season.

"I'm desperate to get back to the Premier League," he said.

"I want to get back there with a club that will financially support its manager, a club that wants to compete at that level and doesn't want to change owners. That's my biggest challenge."

The former Motherwell, Preston and Derby boss became Forest's manager in January 2009, when he succeeded Colin Calderwood.

He took up the managerial reins at Derby in June 2006 after leaving Preston and immediately guided the club to promotion via the Championship play-offs, beating West Brom 1-0 in the final at Wembley.

But he was sacked the following November, with Derby rock-bottom of the Premier League, having won only one game, against Newcastle at Pride Park.

Despite an unsuccessful playing spell at R*ngers, Davies holds fond memories of his time at Ibrox.

"For me, it was always a challenge being a young player joining Glasgow R*ngers," he said.

"You've got to be very patient at these big clubs to try to get some games. Hence the reason why a lot move on and take on another challenge.

"At R*ngers, I never really got a great deal of challenge, although I think my 5ft 6in stature never helped me."


Aye being an 'out and out R*ngers man' is a 'myth' right enough...
