The BBC have started their ban on Rangers coverage by talking about Rangers for an hour on sportsound. Beyond parody.

To be fair, the BBC's ban is on sending reporters to Ibrox to broadcast matches from the ground. They will still include match reports ( they will get their reports second hand I presume ) and cover Sevco news etc. Sevco still have their supporters within the BBC of course. Richard Wison commented that "..... all this is really unfortunate as there are great things coming this year ...... Sevco ( he calls them Rangers) going back up ......."

Rangers are an Institution...

With apologies to Groucho Marx.

Before Park left, Rangers' bus contract was returned to his company. His work done, he has passed his directorship on to his son.

I did read that old man Park had not been keeping well.

"We challenge the anonymous coward behind the troll blog to reveal his true identity"

Sounding a bit like the gardener there.

I know Tam Cowan is not everyone's cup of tea, but years ago on "Off the Ball" they were discussing the launch of Rangers TV. Cowan quipped "It's going to be a bit like Scotsport, but with not as much about Rangers"

Last Paragraph "The £6.75M raised from 30.050 ST cards, which yields £5.4M after tax, is barely sufficient to pay the current player payroll. There is one chattered accountant on the board, and one who has lied that he is a CA when scamming investors in South Africa. Surely the real CA can, on the back of a cigarette packet, look at operational expenditure of £30M and income from ST, broadcasting, 32 Red, match day spend, cup runs and best case £200,000 from Rangers Retail and arrive at a deficit of £8-£10m, or £12.5m if the boycott of SD is successful. The £2.5m monthly burn rate will soon catch up with them."

Rangers debts are to Mike Ashley ( £ 5 million ), the 3 bears about £ 3 million but probably not repayable as they will convert to shares.

Nothing to the banks as they won't lend to the toxic club.

There could well be other debts building up with late payments of Business Rates ( £ 837,000 total for 1 year ), also utilities and phone companies seem targets for non-payment by distressed football clubs.

I've done a few rough calcs. based on their 2013 TRFC accounts and I reckon the money will run out by November /December even without Ashley's repayment.

That is, unless they have a hugely successful share issue or the glib and shameless one starts investing big time.

Best to drop the Cilla thing. More than a little disrespectful to her and her relatives. Let's keep it decent please. We are Hibernian FC and we don't need to stoop to that level.
