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.

In bad taste that is...... denying charitable good causes in order to fish a bunch of smelly cheating barstewards out of the cesspit of their own creation - BOOOOO!!!!

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.

...and that the word "Roman" can still be used at Ibrox.

This is kinda like the transfer window but in reverse!!

You can bet there will be a lot of mischief-making going on between other clubs and the rangers player agents cutting new deals left, right and centre. Rangers and the Admins try to give the impression that THEY are in complete control of timings and outcomes, when there will be plenty of activity going on in the background to prise the better players out of Hunbrox before it gets rancid

I know I'm in a small minority but seeing people lose thier jobs is not something I can rejoice in. Even if its Rangers players.

I'd call it hilarious.

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

Laughing at the collective Gers is acceptable IMHO - but not at the individuals.

Greg Wylde's actions and words seem very commendable to me. Good luck to him.

I share that. I feel less sorry for the players, of course, as they will almost all get new jobs. It's the others, in marketing and the likes, that will struggle. They are the real victims of the nonsense.

I'm not so sure, dance with the devil and all that. The huns will have employed a lot of 'like minded people' The more the merrier for me, the lot of them. An evil institution, one thats rotten to the core.

Each and every employee knows just what that club stands for, and each and every one of them didn't care one jot.

Its kinda like every man for them selves now or rats leaving a sinking ship all depends on how you look at it.

I Will say it is exciting awaiting the next shred of news who is going who is staying so far it looks like they have saved around 50k so just 950k to go now

Acht....that's where I am. Thoroughly enjoying the carnage, and have no time for pundits and the like agonising over their self-destruction through cheating. But I do feel sorry for the folk caught up in it.*

According to Clyde reporter on twitter, already has visits to Blackpool and Southampton lined up. I don't think we need to feel too sorry for him.

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....

Indeed we don't. He gets to head down to the Pleasure Beach, while I'm stuck behind a desk in George Square! Dunno whats in Southampton though.

None of the players released shall find it difficult to get another club, most will be playing for them in a couple of weeks therefore earning a wage.

I do feel sorry for any of those who perhaps work behind the scenes.


Anyone hear that trophy eared welt Billy Dodds on the radio before the games on Saturday? Was pretty much saying that what is going on at Ibrox just now is a 'tragedy'. No Bill, what is going on in Syria is a tragedy, not some overpaid footballers being released from a contract owned by a club who have broken the rules for the past 10 years.

Some of these pundits are so far removed from reality it beggars belief!

Dodds has annoyed the hell out of me throughout all of this. Whilst the likes of Traynor and Young have had worthwhile contributions to make to the whole debate, Dodds has shown himself up to be the ex-footballer that he is.

Sorry and 'not laughing' are not the same Besides, he could have sat in waiting on a severance payment - ironically the first £30k is tax-free - and then signed on elsewhere also.

I thought you didn't get any severance with administration and you were just emptied? Possibly added to the creditor pile and paid a small percentage at best?
