Rangers fans seem united in their shock at Gerrard's decision but split about whether it is a good or bad thing for the club, with chairman Patrick Stewart, sporting director Kevin Thelwell and the new American owners also under scrutiny.

I felt energised at the prospect of him becoming manager after the debacle of Russell Martins tenure, when I'd just lost all hope and belief in the club.
It was quite a moment: The favorite son and the face of the dynasty, back in the Bay to save the organization and that faded black-and-orange tradition he helped build.

The Giants are still a thoroughly .500 outfit, staring up at the blinding lights of the Dodgers and the perpetually contending Padres.
