On the first, absolutely.

The second will depend on the wording of the contracts. The answer is probably yes, but this is a soap opera, remember

Think MA/SD own some of the Rangers Trade marks though

Pretty sure they are his property so if this particular version of the rangers disappears / defaults he still has the rights to use them and presumably use the law to prevent anyone else from using them without his consent / payment?.

They would probably still be able to stick random meaningless wee stars all over their jerseys like now but the other symbols might not be available to them going forward if Ashley chooses to withhold them.

It's obvious I've learned F'all from the previous 919 pages of this thread, so I will quit now, I just don't see any benefit for anyone if The Rangers deliberately go into admin once more.

GGTTH

I wouldn't worry about it mate.

It's pretty clear from what's going on that nobody at Ibrox (the board, the players, the fans) have learned anything from the whole sorry episode either.

A star for each admin/liquidation would be pleasing

Thanks guys. Most of the contracts will be up in the summer, so that's probably not a big issue. The second bit could be slightly worrying though. And they'll need the concept of "soap" explained to them.

But these answers sound more promising

RANGERS shareholder Mike Ashley has claimed his human rights are being violated by the publication of letters detailing his attempts to avoid appearing in front of a Commons committee.
The Sports Direct boss has been summoned by the Scottish Affairs Committee to explain the closure of the company’s USC business in Scotland and the use of zero-hours contracts

Backs up the rumour among Sevconians that Park feels like he's been left holding the baby and it probably where he got it from but still enjoyable reading.

Amusing stuff but pure guesswork from Phil Mac. He's just an irritating gossip and mischief-maker here - knows nothing but 'nudge nudge wink wink' he goes, trying to stir it up.

It was their front page.... http://www.rangersmedia.co.uk

It's been changed to a holding page now though.

Basically it was a heading saying words to the effect "you've been hacked by Celtic FC" with the preview picture of a very, very, raunchy video.

I see in the Herald this morning King has applied to the Court of Session to be a Director of the Rangers. What does that mean, legal guys? Is this a normal way of becoming a Director? I thought you were just appointed, I was in my company

Knowing nothing about anything I'm guessing it may be an attempt to circumvent the SFA's fit and proper test. Maybe not.

DK being a director of RFC lays him open to prosecution, as he is potentially disqualified, having been a director of a company in liquidation with a similar name.

I am guessing that this application is to try and have that law set aside in his case. As Spike says, if he is successful, he can use the Court approval as a way of supporting his SFA application.

I hope, though, that the judge asks him pertinent questions, like "where is the money coming from?" and "where's your NOMAD?".

Or "if you are such a big shot why did you not bail out the old rangers ?"

Not a single mention of Hibs in there

Typical rangers blinkers on

No mention of Falkirk or qots either

Both are better teams than rangers in my opinion

Time for all three of us to prove it.

I would love it, just love it, if The Rangers finish 5th. Wee Kevin Keegan reference for Mike Ashley there!

[Phil D. Rolls]

Arrogant fuds, fourth or fifth in the league is below us, so we'd be as well farting about in the Championship until we are truly ready to conquer the world again.

Why not start off by saying - it's doubtful we'll win promotion, so let's see how we can make it better?

Newsflash for Barry is that it is going to be some time before they can even dream of making the top six. They start from scratch again next year, and don't have a penny to sign new players. Their youth system is totally screwed. Yesterday's men.

[jacomo]

I hope Barry Ferguson's opinion reveals a broader defeatism setting in at Ibrox. They should definitely stay in the Championship for another year.
