Gregg Wylde released already according to Twitter...

Good young player. We should take a look at him.

I doubt very much that a Client Account was operated. If it was, I might agree with you. However, if it was, then ALL the money should have been in there, and there would be no staged payments, as is happening. It could have been paid out in full.

If there was no Client Account, ie it went into the pot, then it's a creditor.

I agree it's highly unlikely given their accounting practices that they would have bothered to seperate assets. I hadn't realised they were paying Dunfy in installments to be honest!

Beeb Radio now reporting that their understanding is that as many as up to sixteen of the first team squad could go!

I'd call that decimation!

Rumours on Twitter that Wylde and several others asked to be released...

He signed a 5 yr contract in August!!!

Wylde asked to be released apparently, and he's not alone. Seems like there are plenty Rangers player that do indeed do walking away.

As many as 16 might be away by the close of play. Shame we're too ****** to get the chance to play them again this season.

Unless the SPL apply a further points deduction for the dodgy contracts?

Fair play to him. Obviously he knows he'll get a new club no bother, but still.

It's a lot more than decimation.... it's bloody carnage

AC Milan Legends v Rangers "Legends"

Imagine getting done for benefit fraud and then suggesting a coffee morning at the local church to pay the bill.

I think the Milan match was already arranged as a fund raiser for rangers and AC Mmilan's charitable foundations but that since the club entered administration the rangers foundation has agreed to "forego the majority of its share of the proceeds" so that that money can go to the club instead.

There is something smelly about it.

Whereas just ten departures would presumably be called decimalisation?

I suppose you'll be telling us that October is still the eighth month of the year as well...

Something smelly about Rangers full stop.

Mervan Celik told he can leave too.

Actually, as a smug Latin scholar who very rarely gets the chance to show off 5 years of "wasted" education, that kind of stuff is right up my pedantic street....

[hibs0666]

Cellik away - thanks for the memories.

[hibsbollah]

Wylde was very impressive last time at ER. He'll go far.

It's very likely that dispensation would be given to get these players registered at other clubs.

That would be fair, of course. Is that normal in this situation? And who gives the dispensation... UEFA?

[PatHead]

Just chuckling to myself...............last time I saw Charles Patterson outside Ibrox/training centre he was reporting on their expected signings on transfer window day including the Norwich centre forward. What planet were they living on..How the mighty fall.Loving every minute

[sambajustice]

Been waiting for this day for about 3 weeks or so now!! Thought it was never going to come!!

I'd call it hilarious.

Or does someone being made redundant mean I should say nothing?

[stokesmessiah]

Anyone else think that what's left of Rangers will finish the season in free fall??

SPL rules allow for them to review a case such as this, not sure if there are UEFA rules above that, probably but I think they would also have some leeway.

It does make sense that you shouldn't be restricted from getting a job if you had a contract outwith the window which was then torn up.

Wylde though appears to have voluntarily walked. I doubt he would be able to sign for anyone until next season.

A further pedant writes:

Decimation was a punishment meted out to Roman Legions for various acts of indiscipline. It involved every tenth man being beaten to death by his fellow legionairies.

As you say that would suggest, firstly a playing staff of 160 and secondly murder being done at Ibrox.
