    Ashley did something similar at NUFC. Baffling.

    I think they look ridiculous, picking and choosing which journalists they will have reporting on them.

    It's not even like these journalists have produced anything inflammatory recently either.

    The club just appear to be appeasing the baying mob.

    We might not have liked a lot of what has been written about us in certain papers this week but I would be disgusted if Hibs chose to do anything similar. Really childish to ban people who write things you don't agree with.

    Spiers wrote an article this wee backing Hibs in the Scott Allan affair. That's enough for DerHun

    It was a balanced, sensible and decent piece and I didn't think it backed Hibs. It had a relatively neutral stance and was understanding of why Rangers, Allan and Hibs were doing what they were doing throughout this whole saga.


    Ah - I see what you mean. It wasn't dripping with bigotry, paranoia and designed to inflame and fuel a difficult situation with the sole purpose of easing the move of Allan to Rangers.

    Spiers is a Rangers fan too, is he not?

    Well, he's a son of the manse but I don't know if he's daft enough to support them.

    Pretty sure he owned up to being a fan during the meltdown. Perhaps in response to being accused of being a Celtic fan, by the Sevconians.

    I don't know if already mentioned, but Chris McLauchln has been banned as well. They are now baying for Tom English and Jim Spence to join them.

    This is like a throw back to the original Rangers.

    How DID that legal action against the BBC go for that program they produced in which they called out Craig Whyte as nothing more than a chancing scheister....the BBC were wrong .....wernt they? Anybody......

    Think he didn't "Daffy Duck" himself at the thought of the Glib and Shameless Liar taking over and actually commented that he hasn't spent a penny since he returned to Ibrox with the new club.

    Perterhouse Corporate Finance Ltd, started life as the Lion Mining Corporation Ltd in 1985.

    Have traded under 5 different names in the past 4 years. Sound downright dodgy to me.

    Perfect fit for Sevco.
    Theyre not KPMG or PW that's for sure. Look up Rivington St Corp Holdings & connections with T1Ps, a fairly infamous share tipping company. Not sure this company will stand up to or appreciate the detailed scrutiny they're about to receive.

    Rangers appoint adviser for ISDX Stock Exchange


    Rangers are closer to joining the ISDX Stock Exchange after appointing Peterhouse Corporate Finance as their corporate adviser.
    Following the resignation of previous advisor WH Ireland in March, Rangers International Football Club plc was delisted from the AIM Stock Exchange.

    RIFC has yet to announce a new firm of auditors. Previous firm Deloitte's final involvement was to sign off on the annual results published last November.

    "Supporters can be assured that their club and company are progressing along the correct lines and as planned," said chairman Dave King on the Rangers website.
    I would short the **** out of that stock.

    They look expensive, though, which can only be a good thing.

    TBH, going down this route is the only possible way I can see of their raising any decent cash. All other doors were slammed shut in Green's face.

    Ps. Is there a connection between the firms?

    Years of lies? What, for publicly condemning their relentless sectarianism, whereas the vast majority of journalists turn a deaf ear?
    Think he was the first of the SMSM to 'Break ranks' and actually questioned the paltry-amount of their hilarious bid - if's obvious their 'Bid' was made only to unsettle Hibs and SA - nothing more ! DK would've s*it himself if we're called his bluff and accepted !!

    DerHun looking to sign 35 y/o John Eustace.


    That'll be their new youth policy in action.

    They would have to have been chasing him for a long time to justify it as a youthful signing.

    I don't know who this John James @sitonfence is, but he sure has it in for King.

    Good to know the good ship Sevco still has mutiny in the ranks.

    Of course, there is an interesting role Hibs fans can play on social media during this transfer window.

    Turn the focus on dave King and his non existent off the radar wealth at every opportunity when Rangers are in the process of failed bids for footballers.

    To put it one way, ex footballers talk, but when Ex-players talk ("move is inevitable" etc) no one listens.

    Money talks. And when money talks everyone listens.

    Shame then for dave King that he's got no money, just worthless ex footballers talking jack to the media.

    Rangers fans like to ignore this inconvenient fact...but the longer the window is open, the more failed bids they pursue, the more their support will turn in on themselves and their board.

    Esp. If we win in late August at ibrox v that dodgy defence of theirs....

    I'd say to Hibs fans mention kings off the radar wealth as often as possible when discussing Scott Allan

    The BBC have started their ban on Rangers coverage by talking about Rangers for an hour on sportsound. Beyond parody.
