Small point mate, they were not relegated. They went into liquidation whereby the dear old SFA allowed them to start again in the bottom tier. They received fines from the SFA for various things which are, as yet, unpaid. The SFA should start charging pay-day loan type interest. 15% per day from date of fine seems about right.Quote:

It does stop statements from Ibrox repeating the nonsense and being copied in print by the media Sevco ar*e-lickers.
Hey, we should all be celebrating. After all, we somehow survived Armageddon & em, won a wee trophy along the way! Bring on Armageddon 2 I say!

Love the 83p on the sum requested!Quote:
RANGERS have launched a new multi-million pound legal action against a number of the club’s former directors and billionaire businessman Mike Ashley.
Lawyers acting for the recently promoted Ladbrokes Premiership side allege that Charles Green, Imran Ahmad, Brian Stockbridge and Derek Llambias acted negligently during their time at the club. The Glasgow team believe the men didn’t act in the business’s best interests when they negotiated commercial deals with Ashley’s Sports Direct. The deals which the club are objecting to include an October 2012 agreement in which the directors allowed Sports Direct to have the ‘naming rights’ to Ibrox stadium. Rangers believe that the naming rights were given to Sports Direct at a price well below their true market value.
In November 2014, the club also entered into a Partnership Marketing Agreement with Sports Direct which allowed the business advertising space at Ibrox stadium. The club’s current management believe that the deal was also arranged at a price well blow its true market value. They also believe that Mr Ashley unfairly benefited and assisted from the alleged negligence displayed by Mr Green and his colleagues. Now Rangers are suing Mr Green, Mr Ahmad, Mr Stockbridge, Mr Llambias, Sports Direct and Mr Ashley in the Court of Session in Edinburgh.
The Ibrox club hope to recover a total of £4,106,470.83 from the action. They also want a civil judge to declare the Partnership Marketing Agreement void. The action came to light following a short hearing at the Court of Session on Friday. Advocate Craig Sandison QC, who was appearing on behalf of Sports Direct and Mr Ashley, succeeded in his attempt to get Rangers to disclose documents to them. The lawyer argued that Sports Direct and Mr Ashley needed access to the documents to help them prepare for the case. Judge Lord Boyd agreed with Mr Sandison’s submissions and allowed both Sports Direct’s and Mr Ashley’s lawyers to access the documents. He added: “I am content to allow the motion.”
The action is concerned with the alleged actions involving the club’s former Chief Executive Charles Green, Commercial Director Imran Ahmad and its former finance director Brian Stockbridge. The club is also concerned with the alleged conduct of Mr Green’s replacement as chief executive Derek Llambias. Lawyers acting for the side alleged that the directors didn’t negotiate the best possible deal when dealing with Mr Ashley and Sports Direct. The club’s legal team believe Mr Green, Mr Ahmad and Mr Stockbridge breached their “fiduciary” duties when they negotiated the “naming rights” for Ibrox stadium. The club claim the businessmen sold the naming rights for £1 and they say the true market value for the deal was at least £500,000 per year. The agreement was in existence for approximately two years but was never enacted.
The directors who negotiated the deal claim that they didn’t do anything wrong. They say that if another company made a rival offer, Mr Ashley’s firm would have to make another offer at a competitive price to retain the rights. Rangers also object to the Partnership Marketing Agreement which was agreed in November 2014. This allowed Sports Direct to secure advertising space at Ibrox. Lawyers acting for Rangers claim the advertising space was a sold for £1 and this wasn’t the true market value for the deal, and that Mr Llambias agreed the agreement with Sports Direct should go ahead. Rangers claim that Mr Ashley “assisted” in the breach of the “fiduciary duties” owed by the directors to the club. Lawyers acting for the individuals being sued by Rangers deny any wrong doing. The case will next call before the court sometime in the near future.
Well if Ashley fancies it we might at least find out how "unlimited" dodgy Dave's wealth truly is and how much he might finally spend on the the rangers. Losing might cost more than the cost of a few freebies from Wigan and a pension fund deal for Josie O'Barton.Quote:

Whyte new the deals that were in place. If he didn't like them he shouldn't have taken over control of the club.

Either lescott must have a lot of family in Greece OR
was it really that rangers were skint all along and tried to reduce his wages at the 11th hour?

Also: 50% of david gray's career goals have been against them. One in the ibrox trouncing you mention, one a screamer in the easter road demolition you reference and the last quite simply the greatest goal ever scored in the history of association football.

"It’s quite public that we had a agreement with Rangers,"he said. "He didn’t agree personal terms."
Surely not?!!Quote:

The Rangers fans are revolting (but we already knew that!)
They seem to have turned their press releases away from us for a minute to get themselves all worked up because the Aberdeen official site shows no previous meeting between the clubs.

Good on Aberdeen. Let's all laugh at The Rangers. :greengrin
Aberdeen have just went way up in my estimation :greengrin
well said the dandy dons
Think the next time there at easter road the score board should have THE RANGERS that might pee them off a bit.

All this foaming from the rangers and articles in the papers claiming clubs are having digs is only going to end in one very messy way. Most likely involving violence with their fans and others which will result in a death.
The RangersNedia site reaction to the notice of complaint is great reading. Whining that it's all the big bad Hibs fans fault, if more Sevco neds had been on the pitch there could have been deaths and how the SFA should be personally thanking them for their support.
Staggering.
What that says is that Rangers supporters are capable of murder. That is so sad.Quote:

Just a quick thought. Did the only other Scottish cup final between Hibs and Rangers in 1979 not also end 3-2 after another late header from a hibby? Bit strange that.

Can't take credit for this but one of my friends who is a Celtic man shared this with me.
Ohh Warburton's a fanny
Lee wallace is a grass
As for Joey Barton
He never misses mass
They say WATP
But we know this is *****
They wave their nazi Union Jacks
And turn Zombie overnight
I dunno about the final two lines but it's a good effort nonetheless.
In related news I see they are raging over the Warburton sing along at Lewys bash. [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
