CWG, why would they set up an escrow account for a new manager?

Maybe to let Aberdeen see that their compensation money was safe. AFC, as Brighton did, were possibly doing due diligence.
It's ok, though. Super Ally says Rangers don't have a problem. I think we can finally close this thread.

Again sorry for the link to the sun.
If they were to re-enter administration it truly would be a wonderful thing.
Despite all the threats and scare mongering from the huns and their apologists in the media last time about how without Rangers Scottish football was doomed, clubs would go bust, crowd numbers would plummet etc etc. it didn't happen and if anything Scottish football flourished with many clubs including ourselves getting record crowds.
The sooner that toxic institution is dead and buried for good the better.
Looks like they are selling him off to the highest bidder
Hope he stays put, smacks of desperation

Murty on Morelos:
Looks like Jabba's propaganda has managed to unsettle their own player for a change. :greengrinQuote:
Other than that, he won’t be going anywhere. He is confused at the minute because there are figures being bandied around that would turn anyone’s head. How real they are, I’m not sure. It’s almost designed to confuse and unsettle.

The word from China: source close to Beijing Renhe denies that the club made a multi-million pound bid for @RangersFC Alfredo Morelos. Says their foreign player quota is full, and that there's a levy on foreign signings over $7 million.

What a surprise.
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.

An update from Kheredine.
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.

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 Why has another source superceded this one?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".
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! :greengrin
If the Morelos story is true they obviously still have enough money to pay their PR guru!!
As someone who lives in the West this is an entirely accurate representation of their feelings towards us. They hate us because on their day they can beat us but equally we can beat them. Celtic are so far ahead that Rangers are just something to be laughed at in their fans eyes, they got sick of arguing the opposite so turned their attention to us, the fact that we were rivals for the championship, the Scott Allan affair and then the cup final were all around the same time just cemented it. The way Rangers fans speak about Hibs (including many I know and some friends) is akin to the way they spoke about Celtic in the 90s and 00s. Celtic they speak about they way you'd speak about an EPL team you don't like.
Imagine being this wound up by an opposition manager.

I really should cut down on browsing their fan forums, but it's overly addictive; I'm sure extended contact with the stupidity and bigotry isn't good for you.
My current wtf is one poor sensitive soul on page two who objected to the use of the term 'hun' and rushed to the forum to tell other likeminded fans about this horrendous instance of bigotry with the headline 'Taigs player calling one of us a h**'. To be fair, one of the dozens of commenters actually managed to spot the irony.

I didn't want to hurt the poor man's feelings and get banned from Ibrox.
You make a very good point though.
Lille in France being threatened with relegation apparently for being in a financial mess. Imagine if Scotland had administrators with the balls to reign in clubs here who were a fiscal catastrophe......

£8m for Morelos ??. In the real world they'd struggle to get £1m - spends more time diving and screaming at the ref than he does scoring ! Once again our 'media' shows that there's no depths they won't sink to !
Before 2008 people were building up large buy to let portfolios by remortgaging houses they already owned. To do this they would get an inflated valuation done on the property. You knew you could never sell the property for the valuation you got, the surveyor knew as well but did not care as he was getting paid and the bank knew as well but they did not care because they were selling another loan. It doesn’t really matter how credible the valuation, so long as it’s out there they will try to use it to secure funds.

Pretty much agree with you Oz but it could also just be as simple as with the MSM continually referring to Morelos as an £8m player, some dumb club will offer say £4 or £5m. I agree no way is he worth £8m but most weeks down here in Engerlund I go to a game & see a guy who's cost in excess of £10m & he's scored about 2 goals all season. The market is ludicrous & King/Traynor are merely applying the "big lie" maxim to try & cash in. Hopefully it will be as successful as the Barrie McKay deal!
Isn’t it usually a bad thing for a business to comment on rumours that it’s in trouble?

Their PR advice since Jabba joined has been primary school stuff.
Great for the rest of us watching though !!
Nobody outside Sevco believes there was a bid for Morelos - so why the BBC feel the need to hang another of their reporters out to dry for the Huns is beyond me.
Sounds spookily like this:
http://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/sport/...cial_problems/
Correct.
If Rangers wanted to start to get some decent publicity and be seen that they were acting like grown ups they could do two things for quick wins.
1) Dispense with the services of Level 5 - this would sort a lot of their image issues as that firm is an embarrassment.
2) Stop acting like bairns with the BBC (the biggest and most influential Football broadcaster in Scotland) and go and have an adult grown up conversation with them instead of this perma huff which is puerile.
He is almost provoking JJ and Phil Mac into responding by asking for the proof. Neither Jabba nor Sevco seem to grasp the power of the internet....
I know the Scotsman is a sinking ship but it's staggering that they are taking the Morelos Chinese bid story at face value. It's inconceivable that there was an offer of £7.5 million (it's above the limit that Chinese clubs are allowed, for starters) and inconceivable that, if there had been such a bid (or anything like it), Sevco would have rejected it.
No idea who David Gunn (the "journalist" who wrote this particular piece) is but Aidan Smith reported the Morelos story as accepted fact at the weekend - he should be ashamed of himself.
I'm not sure that's in their best interest, tbh. Unless they ever get a team together with a chance of challenging Celtc, the only thing keeping Ra Berrz buying STs for this new team is a circle the wagons, defiant mentality. Hence back to the old songs, more military paraphernalia than you could shake a poppy at, plenty of statements, etc etc.
The story is made up garbage. Sevco refusing such an offer is the equivalent of them going out and buying a player for £7.5m - there's no way in Hell they could afford to do that - not even close.
Hanging onto Morelos makes no economic sense. The only reasons would be if his presence in the Sevco side gave them a crack at the Champions League, prevented Celtic from 10 in a Row, or if they believe his value will rise in the future. None of those things will happen.
This is a Trump(ed) up story to appease their fan base, and discredit the FBI and the Mueler Enquiry :wink:
If there was a bid, then more likely for ¥8m (about $900k) than £8m.
Here is Phil Mac's take on it - interesting and we'll soon see if there is any truth in it.....
