    I was pretty sure the new leagues would be created on an invite basis. Therefore, rangers would be invited.
    No they wouldn't, according to Rod at the AGM.

    In the interests of accuracy, Petrie said that reconstruction was not intended to facilitate the early return of Sevco to the top lesgue/s, he didn't say it wouldn't happen tho'.

    From the firmness of his tone, I understood his intentions though.

    According to the latest Private Eye Green and the original investors only paid 1P for their shares so a tidy profit for them.

    I wonder if this was his original goal or maybe he is really a knuckle dragging bigot ?
    not a bad punt is it? If the eye have got it wrong they are easy to sue , looking forward to seeing cheeky Charlie pursuing the Eye on this one, they are rarely wrong and always get their costs back. The Eye has been excellent at picking the right pompous and hypocritcal targets down the years and this looks like no exception.

    “Currently top of the table, they will be hoping to go on to seal the title and clinch their first silverware.”


    that article in the montrose programme is correct, so wtf are they moaning about now...
    The article in the programme is completely accurate, they are a brand new club and they will be going for their first piece of silverware.

    The fact that the media and those at Sevco fail to recognise this, by going on about the 140th anniversary etc is really irrelevant.

    Montrose have absolutely nothing to apologise for.

    Cannot wait for Sevco 2012 to roll up for their first ever game at Easter Road. I trust our programme writers will welcome them just as Montrose did. The in denial zombie b's.

    Green is seriously mentally deranged. First he says that as a club and at the behest of their supporters, they will refuse the allocation of away tickets for the Dundee United v Sevco cup tie (presumably an attempt to reduce income to United). Now that United are selling tickets to Sevco supporters he is prattling on about the potential crowd trouble, ( laying the blame at D Utd. supporters? ) As a solution he is now saying that Sevco should take the whole of the allocation - “People have said that it won’t look good to have a televised game with an empty stadium. But I have made the gesture, give us all the tickets. Let’s have no Dundee United fans at the game and we’ll fill the stadium.” Would that not defeat the purpose of your original stupid gesture, yah bampot? This idiot is a dangerous man who hopefully will leave or be kicked out of Scottish football ASAP.

    That is just flabbergasting if that is what he is suggesting. I agree that this is a dangerous individual, and one of the most obnoxious characters that our game has seen (and there have been a few..) this guy is seriously bad news.

    He's suggesting that other teams supporters could masquerade as Sevco fans in a deliberate attempt to start bother and blacken the name of THE RANGERS.

    Seriously - it's time this guy was reigned in before he causes serious trouble with his ridiculous outbursts.

    His utterances become more bizarre every time he opens his mouth. The guy has yet to make one single statment of intent or of his viewpoint on a matter and stick to it. What's worse is that he sounds more like some drunk guy in some Rangers Social Club in the back streets of Govan than a Chairman of a football club.


    He looks to be doing very well out of his 'purchase' and The Rangers seem to be on a very easy road to the SPL so I actually don't understand why he has such a problem with everything and everybody. I can only presume that he knows something that we don't that has got him very worried.

  13. #21582
    He's testing how far he can push it in the knowledge that down the line his club will hold as much if not more power than the spl and sfa, just like the original rangers did. They should have carpeted him months ago and questioned his fit and proper suitability to run a club after he joined in a song about Stuart Regan with his clubs fans at Brechin.

    I've said before and I'll keep saying it, 'Sevco, especially under the control of Green, by their selective, malicious attitude and behaviour towards their fellow teams, must be unconditionally disqualified from inclusion in the top leagues of Scottish football. Green, while his words can't be believed or trusted, has said that Sevco will never play in the SPL ( or presumably any league made up from SPL teams).If he continues to 'attack' the Scottish game, ( and remember that his attitude and actions are supported 100% by his cohorts, McCoist, Smith etc.) I think UEFA will have to step in and sort them out. Look at what they've done to Malaga, for what, it seems, are milder offences than Sevco ( I admit to not knowing the details of that case).

    But they seem unwilling to act against this semi deranged clown, unlike with Romanov. Funny that.

    Can they not take the full allocation then refuse to sell them. Enforced boycott.

    Fair points Jim.....I know Greene is fully playing the hordes of huns, but his digs at everyone and anyone outside of Ibrox, are shocking....I think playing the "everyone hates us" card, is foolish at best, but dangerous at the same time......

    Happy Christmas from Charles Green!

    http://www.rangers.co.uk/news/headli...istmas-message

    CHARLES GREEN has the following Christmas message for the club's fans:

    'TWAS the night before Christmas and all through the house, not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
    Except of course Ally McCoist, whose been banging on my door asking: “When can I spend that £10m?”.

    Right behind him was Jim Traynor, the man with the perfect face for radio. Not content with being the forthcoming star of Rangers TV, he still thinks he should be playing for the team.

    All of us at Ibrox are enjoying the season of goodwill but there must be something wrong with the postman. No Christmas cards have arrived from Dundee United, the SFA or the SPL. Never mind, maybe they’ll be in the last post.

    I’d love to be able to toast every Rangers fan with something special but as a teetotaller, it’s lemonade or nothing. All the same the supporters of this club deserve a toast more than ever.

    Before I came to Ibrox I had no idea how much pain our fans were enduring. With the torment of administration and all that followed, there seemed no end to it with our fans taking it on the chin from everyone and their auntie baying for blood in the name of sporting integrity. Take it on the chin they did and they did not flinch.

    I doubt there’s another club in the world where the supporters could take everything thrown at them and yet stand so tall and proud. The outstanding efforts of our fans in supporting this club this year has been shown to audiences around the world by the many foreign TV stations who have visited Ibrox to chart the fall and rise of Rangers.

    It is quite a story and we are glad that we are ending this year on a high note. Attendances at Ibrox have been breathtaking. We are also delighted to be made welcome in the SFL Division 3 and know we’re making a difference to the league. We've also been pleased to fill the stockings financially of all the clubs we've played this season.

    The club is on the way back and our admission to the London Stock Exchange last week was yet another important milestone on that journey.
    I would, on behalf of the board of directors of Rangers, like to express our deep gratitude to every Rangers fan. You are the greatest and we wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

    Oh there’s a delivery from the SFA and it’s a big bundle. Either it is thanks for rejuvenating and refreshing Scottish football or it’s another pile of disrepute charges. See you at Ibrox on Boxing Day.

    If the Scottish football authorities don't have the b@lls (maybe Sevco is holding them too tightly) or the desire to deal with Green's nonsense, they should seek the help of UEFA.

    I think they should rise above what is playground stuff. That way, they can't be painted as "humourless Scrooges" at this time of year.

    That reaction will probably wind up CG/Traynor to the extent that, next time, they'll be more outrageous.... at which point the SFA can justifiably hammer them.

  27. #21596
    Cant wait untill we play these *****. I try and avoid this thread but have a look atleast once a week and my hatred just grows more and more.

    That message from Green is unbeleivable although no doubt the spinless sfa wont do anything about it.

    I think the problem the SFA have is that any action against Zombiehuns will be used as fuel by Green to say "see? This proves they are against us!" and another statement follows and things may only get worse. What Green is doing may one day end up in tragedy, when he stirs the pot too much and someone gets hurt. So to some extent at least, the SFA have to be the bigger man.

    My own opinion is that they should hammer Green personally (banned/fined/charged with bringing the game into disrepute/inciting hatred etc) to such an extent that he is seriously inconvenienced and deterred from doing this. I don't know if they can do that, or how they could do that, but sooner or later, they will have to act decisively and put this dangerous fool in his place. I'm not convinced the current leadership have the bottle to do it though.

    So much for their fit and proper person new rules. Green makes Cwaig look sane. The same Cwaig they banned for life and fined £200k. All they've given this con merchant and troublemaker is a slap on the wrists.

    Greene, Traynor and Fat Sally, are odious men, who are well suited to running one of the vilest, bigotted Clubs in the land......I really hope they get what's coming to them. Every statement generates excitement for the huns, but alienates every other person within the Scottish game, he should be hauled over the coals for this latest petulant outburst.

    When Rangers FC died, as they undeniably did, they created a space in Scottish football which I hoped might be filled by something decent, something better, or something at least a little less poisonous. Instead, newco sevco have actively sought to take their brand new club and use it to not only replicate every single vile feature associated with the extinct club that was Rangers, but to actually magnify it. Organisations frequently reflect the tone at the top, and when the man at the top is an ill-educated moron who actually seems to regard bigotry as a personal trait to be developed rather than a cancer to be exorcised, then what you end up with is sevco. Quite sad that a once in a lifetime opportunity should have been so gleefully spurned.
