Newco have struggled for relevance this season, even among their own supporters, who have been increasingly disengaged. They are an object of fun domestically and were not quoted outside of Scotland. Now they are relevant. They are being discussed in news programmes and by football commentators outside Scotland, and not because of an embarrassing defeat.
The appointment will ensure the renewal of thousands of season tickets that may otherwise not have been purchased, so for the first season, it will self-finance. For a club with huge short-term challenges, this money he will bring in over the next six weeks makes the appointment of Steven Gerrard as manager a good one. July’s Europa League qualifiers are a long way off.
This is true even though he has less experience than McCoist, McDowell, Warburton, Caixinha and Murty. Gerrard has never taken charge of a full team of adults. He will have no money to compete with Celtic and will need to pitch his tactical brain against Neil Lennon and Derek McInnes next season. Results will be predictable, you can be assured of that.
Despite his warm welcome yesterday, he is, of course, another Celtic Brother. This fact will visit him with the vitriol which became familiar during Murty and Caixinha’s reign soon enough.
All of this means we get to dismantle some fantasies next season, just as we did this season and last. I see no downside.

And speaking to Rangers TV, he had his say on how the first-team hit form under Graeme Murty after January’s Florida Cup before hitting the skids two months later after the 3-2 Old Firm loss to champions Celtic.
He said: “I think to simplify the issue it’s about winning games.
“I think if we look at the team and my personal view is I think the team is better than they are playing.
“If you look at the way the team played when they came back from the Florida trip, they were playing really well – they were the best team in Scotland for that period.

RT In any other modern society the goings on at Ibrox and the criminal elements involved would have attracted high level Police scrutiny. However remember its Scotia where anyone involved in criminal activity connected to Ibrox is afforded immunity unless you are Craig Whyte. If Police Scotland had invested the same amount of resources investigating corruption at Ibrox than it did on its wild goose chase after the innocent Craig Whyte it might have literally saved the tax payer millions.
