He is out of a job just now: Wikipedia says...

Souness recently flirted with the idea of succeeding Iain Dowie as manager of Crystal Palace. He was quoted as saying, "I have a lot of time for Simon Jordan and what he is doing at Crystal Palace. We get on. It is certainly something I would be interested in. I'm ready for another challenge and Palace is something that appeals should it arise." [5] However when Jordan offered Souness the job, Souness turned it down, reportedly because of family reasons.[6]

During the 2006 FIFA World Cup, Souness served as a panellist for RTÉ Television's coverage of the tournament

I'm hoping for John Barnes to make a shock return to football management.

Word has it that McCoist's gonna be involved with the Rangers job in some capacity, with possibly one or more other ex-huns thrown in for good measure.
For all Le Guen's faults (i.e. Sebo), everyone seems to have forgotten that he's done well in Europe with Rangers, albeit against mediocre opposition. Like McLeish before him, he's gotten too much stick from certain sections of the hun 'faithful'. Sure, the league's fucked this season, but it's still all to play for in terms of the Champions League place, Scottish Cup and UEFA Cup.

12-1, I've stuck a speculative fiver on it.

I reckon Billy Davies is the best bet, so a speculative tenner on him is getting laid too.

i think davies is happy at derby, they're having a great season - having said that if he was offered the job i think he might take it.

Davies played for the teddies when they went through a 'period of adversity', wouldn't be surprised if he fancies a crack at managing them out of one.....

Telegraph | Sport | Rangers opt for McCoist and Smith

Seems like Walter Smith and Coisty have got the job.

Shame, I was about to suggest the mighty Eduard Malofeev. Cracking manager...

They can have McCoist, but it'll be a bit rubbish for Smith to leave Scotland in the middle of an excellent campaign. Ok they say he can do both jobs in the meantime but that's not really a good solution. With the state that the national team was in after Vogts it needs a full time manager in place, not someone with one eye on their club side.

Don't even get me started on what this does to the chances of Rangers players getting into the Scotland team. Expect to see various members of Rangers Reserves getting call ups to the training camps anytime soon.
