Having talks with Warburton: -

He'll not have a clue what he's getting into. If there's not instant success he will be hounded out sharpish. Plus there's no money to spend.

He's also probably unaware that a PhD in the events of 1690 is an essential part of his CV if he wishes to be considered for the position. The ability to say "we're" instead of "our" & calling everyone taller than Frankie Dettori "big man" would also be helpful attributes!

'Mcgreggor' (sic) as 'rush goalie' and centre-half, then? That's the only bit that's indicative of the financial state they are in.

They mean alan mcgregor i think.

"we have traditions and history that no club in the world can rival"

Can't argue with that, as I'm not aware of any other club that had a ban on signing RCs.


...and here we get to the crux of the matter....

"You’re the man with cash, put up..."


Show me the money!

What other club, or indeed society or species would want that culture or "history"?

The history is in fact pretty one dimensional and not that exciting or honourable when compared with any number of clubs, but why worry about facts when they can barely string a sentence together never mind research anything!

And end every sentence with "in that"

It's not 'we're', it's 'wur'.


As in, 'wur back four wur excellent the day'.

Only one or two regular starters in that list. Not unexpected either. The new manager has a job on his hands.

Some real dead weights in there, probably better to just weigh them rather than list them?

Boyd, Black, Elbows and Daly to the yams? Potter won't be able to resist.

Warburton did a fine job at Brentford but Rangers a whole new ball game.

Also, he likes his teams to play football, but will surely take a big change in culture to make that happen there.

I'm surprised Ashley doesn't want him for Newcastle - maybe he's just biding his time before scuppering the deal?

On the BBC site saying he wants to understand the "chemistry" at the rangers - I'd be more concerned about the bigotry.

He's a decent guy and manager by all accounts - wonder if he has got a moral compass / principles? Plenty other clubs around.

Edit - maybe he meant chemicals?

Let's hope it takes them quite a while to make their minds up and ensure their re-building process is slow. If we can get out the blocks like Hearts did last year and stay consistent, we might just be out of sight before they are organised.

Anybody read what the bigots are saying about us getting Danny Carmichael

They seemed to think they were signing him

Given they are not even sure who their manager will be I think it's a given that they will take a while to get geared up for next season.

I'm consoling myself (for now) that we're setting ourselves up to employ a forward thinking manager who'll be adequately supported in his player acquisition strategy and it means that players that are of interest to Hibs etc. are off our radar for a very good reason.

The very good reason being that we're interested in FOOTBALL-PLAYERS - I.E. Guys who can play the game and NOT the flute ??


Despite Sunday's result, it seems 'Humility', 'Realism' and 'Intelligence' are just 3 of the character-traits that your everyday-Hun still avoids like the plague.

It's a well known FACT in Hunnish circles that the failure to go on to conquer Europe after winning the Cup Winners Cup was due to the plans to relax the rules about signing RCs-it only took another 12 years.

Exactly the type of player potter likes. Probably play him on the wing.

Apart from their short statement about Moshni there has been complete silence from Ibrox this week. I would have thought there might have been some reassuring words for their fans that they have a plan to turn things around. Have they got season tickets on sale yet?

Someone posted in here a furious rant from a Follower about this exact subject.

Where is Dave King in all this? He seemingly wasn't at Fir Park.

Tom English wrote a great BBC blog on King's various, er, contradictions so far.

King has to be careful about how many days he stays in the UK, to avoid being liable to UK Taxes.

As for his various investment promises......................

Well, quite.

Shame there is no way of watching Rangers games in SA (he actually said this!!) and no technology exists for him to get a message to the supporters from his SA lair...

Perhaps he's sent a letter outlining his plans which a flunky can read out on the steps of Ibrox? Hopefully sent via airmail, as the faithful might be getting restless.

Given how short of cash they are it seems strange they have not started selling season tickets. I'm wondering if the are contemplating admin. If the rumours about the money that gets taken out of Ibrox every month by Ashley, Green etc are true it may be the only choice available to the new regime. By not collecting the season ticket money first they could be trying to retain some goodwill with the fans?
Just guessing but the silence this week is baffling.

[Keith_M]

They seek him here
They seek him there
They seek that Dave King everywhere
Is he in Heaven
Or is he in Hell..........

.....or maybe he's finally in a Jail Cell.




With apologies to Emma Orczy.

I thought they were holding off so they could price the season tickets at premiership prices once promotion had been confirmed.
