Hopefully the other SFL clubs will also stand up against these blackmail and scaremongering tactics
Well done the Rovers, proud to share my stadium with you

For the sake of transparency, Doncaster?
The SPL tv deal is only worth what someone is willing to pay so the saints fans tables are not really any value in the debate. The SPL gets what it gets because the EPL is the top league within our tv area. It would be better to compare against the welsh, Irish and Northern Irish dealsQuote:

Goram in The Sun and Hately in the record spouting exactly the same message, almost word for word, about the Armageddon that will be Scottish football if Huns go to Div3.

Judging by the excellent statements we've seen from them so far, SFL chairmen are not stupid enough to be convinced by halfwits like Goram and Hately, so who is all this pleading supposed to be for? Is there some sort of concerted attempt now to compete with Celtc for the prize of most victimised club in Scotland? :dunno:Quote:

I just don't have the words.
Agreed. Doncaster could make mincemeat of the comparison. Surely the figures would only be relevant if it was the same TV company applying the same criteria in every country. Sorry if I've overlooked something obvious.Quote:

This just adds to the "We Are Rangers" arrogance that riled so many SFL Chairmen - and which might yet see them plopped into Div 3. I'd be more concerned if these huns started to be all contrite and apologetic, as they're more likely to get a sympathetic hearing. But a hun is a hun. No one likes them, and no one cares anymore :wink:Quote:

Perhaps one of the Andy Gorams is a financial expert, it might not have been the loyalist low life jakey one that wrote the whole article. :agreeQuote:

What's to be expected, when they have been allowed to get away with it for so long. This is what these fools over in Glasgow genuinely think

Rangers Buzz@Rangers_buzzThe Record reports Charles Green is to give fans the chance to own half of Rangers with a new share issue to be announced next week
http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/footbal...6908-23905404/
http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/football/spl/2012/07/07/rangers-in-crisis-charles-green-to-give-fans-chance-to-own-half-of-ibrox-club-with-new-share-issue-86908-23905404/
CHARLES GREEN is set to keep his promise to Rangers fans – by giving them the chance to own half the club.
Many supporters questioned Green’s reasons for buying the stricken club for £5.5million and some have backed consortiums fronted by Walter Smith and John Brown. But a stockbroker is now due to arrive from London next week to help the club launch a share issue.
And an Ibrox source said: “We’re going to announce shares will be offered for sale to supporters and this proves what we said at the start.
“We’re bringing a stockbroker up from London. People can come to the ground and register if they want a share.
“They will be given the opportunity to buy shares for the same price as everyone else and if they buy all that are available to them, they will own 50 per cent of the club.
“Contrary to what some claim, we’re going to do a lot of things we said we’d do and more besides. Things that are not yet public.”
Could the SFL vote just keep on being adjourned/delayed so that it unfortunately is too late for the start of the season? A la when a jury cannot reach a unanimous decision in a trial :pray:
Hately and goram. Now i hope yous arent even allowed back into div3 and are destroyed
Where the saintees tables could be questioned is that the population of the countries he lists, which is in theory your potential customer base, is not included. It would be interesting to see how things compared then.Quote:

I like how they have made that sound all fancy by bringing up a stockbroker from london. If i were an orc i would bloody well hope he has a bowler hat, braces and a briefcase or i am not buying.Quote:

I bet next season and the season after that, that all those hun apologists who masquerade as journos and columnists will keep this annoying habit they still have, of referring to Sevco as "Rangers". This is a much more important issue than it may seem. It's important that this is not allowed to happen.
That's a very good point. Who says they have to be let into the league system at all?!?Quote:

Its this sort of crap which will get them punted to Div3 with no chance of Div1 .... nobody likes threats and nobody likes to be bullied ... and especially ... nobody likes to be told they are an afterthought to the main show.
"The old firm are Scottish football" .... my god, its like the last 6 months never happened ... these idiots have learned nothing!
Their ignorance and stupidity is astounding......Why don't all clubs outside of Old Firm, just not bother anymore and pack up....Let the Old Firm play each other every week, a derby on Sky every week, all the media and SFA delirious and salavating at the mere thought.....Quote:

We should be letting them straight back into the SPL and dig our hands deep into our pockets to ensure that they stay in a top 2 position.
