    Oh really! This will be fun to what unfolding ....

    Comments of this ilk from Sally & Greene are akin to a Press Gang (no pun intended).
    I can imagine the players in question will be feeling much the same way as the rest of us these days.
    The tone of these "Thou shalt's" certainly wouldn't entice me to stay and be loyal given the choice.

    Is that last part about bouncey true?!

    **** sake.
    There are folk out there who claim the Rangers fans sing Penny Arcade, because of a spurious 20 word news clipping about a Catholic who was murdered in an amusement arcade in Northern Ireland.

    Both of these rumours - Penny Arcade and The Bouncy - are absolute tosh according to some pretty level headed (i.e. want them to go down to the SPL and start again) Hun mates.

    Always beware of apparently sensible Rangers Fans. They will tell you that 'they are only folk songs'.

    Don't believe a word of it.

    I don't know if it's just a Celtic fan's need to find a victim angle in everything relative to Rangers or not.

    What the Hell kind of statement is that exactly? Let's break a couple of things down -

    "He said: "It has been reported that a couple of players have indicated they want to challenge the transfer of their contracts. This is news to me and no player has spoken to me about it."

    How'sabout picking up the phone and asking them then, rather than immediately going on the offensive. Or have they already told you and you're just telling wee fibs again. Because...

    "At all times during my first year as manager, I strived to show players respect and in return would have hoped they would have shown me, and more importantly the club, respect by notifying us of their intentions before making it known elsewhere.

    ...Would suggest you know the reports to be correct and factual.

    "Players have their own decisions to make and I understand that, but the question they have to ask themselves is do they want to play for Rangers or not?

    Haven't they made that decision, isn't that the point?

    "The formation of a new company is not the issue. The players would be playing for the same club - Rangers - in front of the same fans.

    Same club, same fans, but none of that other clubs debt though, eh Ally?

    "If players want to leave and play somewhere else then they should be honest with the Rangers supporters.

    Who's not being honest?

    "After all that the club and the fans have gone through, the supporters, above all, deserve the truth and should not have to listen to stories trying to sugar-coat the possible departure of players from the club.

    They deserve all they get if they want to leave, is that it? They are turncoats traitors?

    "The players were magnificent last season and made great sacrifices and that will never be forgotten.

    Unless they leave, then Hell mend them.

    They will probably blame it on the Nat West/RBS meltdown.

    Over on Samaritans.com it would appear that they think demotion to the 1st Div. is a done deal. They even consider themselves to be in a position of strength in a negotiating situation vis a vis the Daily Record report on the 'secret meeting'. Maybe they didn't hear today's Sportsound where an SFL chairman reckoned they probably wouldn't get the 75% vote from SFL clubs.

    The same people were telling us a few weeks back that the Blue Knights would take over Rangers and that HMRC and Ticketus were happy to go along with a CVA.

    Not read through this to find out, but some huns saying they might be going to Divison 1 instead? Also there will be a 'Glasgow Cup'? Again it's just all about the television money, what about the division 1 teams who have a chance at promotion!? I don't believe it but it's what i have heard. Getting really tired of hearing all this rubbish, just want them gone. Really not in the mood for Scottish football at all at the moment, it's never about the actual football.

    I know I shouldn't go there but some of the content on Kerrydale Street just now is priceless. Dicussing Jim Traynor:

    where is Traynor btw?

    haven't heard his jowls flapping on the radio recently.

    He's under a duvet, in a darkened room, in his rainjurs jammies.
    Hugging his teddy bears teddy bear.
    Surrounded by tear stained pictures of Moonbeams unfurling the league flag.
    A dvd of the 9in a row on constant playback on the telly. A big jobby in his jammie bottoms. The only thing offering warmth.
    Sobbing softly to himself like a wounded animal whilst mumbling,"lies, its all lies".
    Deep down he knows the game is up.

    No more succulent lamb or fine reds for the bold James.

    Awful sad.

    It appears that Secvo 5088 will have to pick a new name distict fom Rangers FC if they ever manage to find a League that will have them.

    Darlington are currently considering a new name:

    Can't be that difficult to pick a new name.

    Darlington Town/City? (Simples)
    Darlington Phoenix? (Rising from the ashes)
    Darlington Tuesday? (a-la Sheff Wed.)
    Darlington Club 12? ...........etc

    It makes things clear that the purchase of the assets of Rangers FC by Sevco 5088 is being funded by the season ticket purchasers. Why else is season ticket money going into the Oldco's bank account? This cash can only be accessed by Duff and Phelps (to pay their fee) and creditors.

    All very murky indeed.

    Sure, there are usually plenty of spare seats around, shouldn't be too hard to get him a ticket to watch!

    Latest from Paul McConville regards the TUPE position and the bizarre stakeholder management strategy from Green/Sally. Completely on the money.
