    They forgot to add the words "Just cut and paste that Kheredine. Thanks, Dave King" at the end.

    As in ""An apology to @RangersFC : despite what I was told from China, there was indeed a multi-million euro bid, indeed bids, from Beijing Renhe for striker Alfredo Morelos, with varying options for how it would have been structured. This retracts, and corrects my previous tweet. Just cut and paste that Kheredine. Thanks, Dave King"
    What a farce! I suspect some agent is involved in the shenanigans here. Why would a Chinese club be offering euros to a Scottish club & what happened to the limit on foreign players? Well that's the MSM back in their box!

    And, if there were such bids, given RFC's need for cash, why were they rejected?

    I suppose it's possible that they could still get a bid as I think the Chinese window is open for another month. Still reeks of lies from Fat Jim (I imagine)

    Very weak journalism. Was he told something by a decent source in China or not? What was the source? Why apologise for reporting something he was told by a decent source? Why has another source superceded this one? When has the BBC previously incorrectly reported something about a Scottish football club and apologised for it?

    Why apologies to Sevco at all? All sorts of stories have appeared linking McGinn to all sorts of clubs. We haven’t had a single apology?
    Maybe it’s because this totally fictitious transfer was completely dreamy up inside Ibrox.

    And then reported as fact from the largely Jabba controlled media puppets. Remember Radar reported a 6 million bid was being prepared from a German team for one of their players who iirc was later sold for substantially less than 1 million.

    mon the cabbage!!!

    I wonder how much of a bill for new double glazing Kheredine would have been looking at if he hadn't tweeted that "clarification".

    Even allowing for the usual Celtc bias that's an excellent article. The Beeb should be ashamed.

    We need to move on from questioning anything that stinks of corruption around the hun. The BBC sucking Sevco'c tadger is something we will just have to accept.

    Don’t think I could ever give up pointing out corruption if I suspect it.

    You’re doing such a top job pointing out corruption that your strongly held beliefs have achieved the square root of **** all.

    I see Murty has now been told to say that there definitely was a bid for Morelos and that they're now going to offer him an improved deal. You couldn't make it up. Horrible club.

    I was speaking to a guy yesterday who lives in Glasgow. He goes to a bar that shows Scottish games live. He was there watching our 3-2 league win at Ibrox. The hatred towards Hibs and NL was much worse than any old firm game. Guy has no axe to grind as is a Dundee Utd fan (in Glasgow I know) and whose dad has always liked the Hibs. Anyone going just watch as the pure hate now is overwhelming and pretty pathetic.

    We all need to have a little more sympathy for the average Hun. They've had 4 years to come to terms with the fact that Celtic are on a different level altogether and they just can't compete - maybe fluke 1 in 15 if they're lucky. Celtic are also heading towards 10 in a row which Sevco are powerless to stop. They are impotent.

    As a result, the Huns are venting their frustrations and hatred toward a team have half a chance of beating on occasion - Hibs. It's hilarious.

    The outpouring of bile and Sectarianism will be in full flow today as The Rangers and The Politicians and The Police have no intention of trying to do anything about it

    I preface this by saying the guy I was chatting to, I met for the first time this weekend - he was a friend of my dad, who isn't a fan of The Rangers, or indeed any football team, so no axe to grind.

    He was Danny Wilson's accountant before his relocation out to the USA. He spoke with Wilson shortly after the team returned to Scotland from Orlando. Wilson's contract was up at the end of the season, and had been told prior to going to Florida that he was integral in Murty's plans for the remainder of the season. He was trying to negotiate a new contract to allow him to keep playing at Ibrox - didn't want to any pay increase, didn't want any ludicrous perks etc to his contract, just an extension - his partner is due to give birth in 3 months, so he wanted to settle in Scotland and keep playing. He turned up to training one day to find out Rangers had agreed to the approach from Colorado without any consultation with him or his people. They had been offered some money for him (undisclosed) and were in 'real need' to accept the offer. The same 'need' was the reason they offloaded Pena and tried to offload Alves. The Morelos story was pure fabrication by a PR company hired by Rangers to drum up interest in the player.

    Their accounts are horrific to read, and the last lot didn't include any of Pedro's signings etc - several of their creditors have also been pushing hard to try and get repayments back, and there's a growing concern about their longevity.

    Not sure how much of this is 'new' information (as I don't follow this thread in daily detail), but I thought I'd pass it on!
