I hated the old Rangers more than anything I can muster for Hearts. Hearts are just rivals. The old and the new Rangers are disgusting bigoted organisations and I will not shed a tear for them no matter what benefit it may bring the yams.

Wouldn't that be funny, Hearts start the season on -15 and The Rangers on -15/-25 (depending on how they then decide the status of their club)

Hearts will not win the league next year regardless of Rangers problems. They have a mountain to climb and I doubt that the level of their playing staff will be much different to what it is this year.Quote:

Maybe not. The whole purpose of this admin is to get out of expensive player contracts. They will release everyone who is earning too much and have to go with youngsters the rest of the season.Quote:

Seems to be a way of cancelling contracts of players they don't want or are too expensive.
15 or 25 points is irrelevant this season, so no punishment there.
Other than the embarassment (yeah, I know) is there any down side for The Rangers?
How can it be irrelevant? If it is 25 points (and I don't know that for sure) they will be back to close to equal with Dunfermline but with potentially all of their high earners gone. You don't think Dunfermline will see an opportunity there?Quote:

Talking to a, and I quote, a dyed in the wool blue nose from my toes to the top of my head and feckn hate kafflix, last night who is funnily enough the first person I have ever heard say they had sympathy for the small businesses that lost money. Gobsmacked was i.
Agreed. In a league full of hatchet men their poor wee lambs couldn't handle that. Tattoo mans level though.Quote:

Speaking , today, with an accountant friend whose firm was involved in the last IBROX "problem" and he made the commentQuote:

This must be a record?
Portsmouth entered Administration for the second time in two years on 17th February 2011.Quote:
