    Were the rangers fans not moved out a particular part of the ground a year or two back because there were parts of the stand at risk of falling?

    Was a midweek game I think

    Part of the suspended roof in the Govan fell out, but remained attached, dangling over the huns.

    Gonna be a long year then. Skint by December without a massive cash injection from somewhere - but where? You're talking at least £10m to fix the crumbling stadium and cover their massive cost base - and this is money that you'd just have to write off straight away. They're due Barton £2.6m over the remainder of his contract, for example. Another liquidation appears more and more likely.

    A second liquidation throws up an interesting question - will hun v3.0 be able to take their Div 3,2,Championship and Petrofac Cup-winning history with them when they re-emerge?
    I think I love you.

    That post made my day...

    On Friday 16 th Rangers lodged a section 89 building warrant application with Glasgow council, number 16/02690/s89 , to allow the playing of football matches at Ibrox Stadium.
    A section 89 application is for continued use of a structure.

    Ive no idea if it's to do with the stand roofs or some minor matter, but I'm sure the daily rags will be on it if there's anything to report.
    The Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982, Section 89, requires that the use of a “raised structure” must be approved by the relevant local authority. In this context, “raised structure” means a platform, stand, staging or other similar structure, which provides seating or standing accommodation. This requirement does not apply where, a Building Warrant has been granted or, scaffolding or similar equipment is used in connection with building works.
    Could this be for television positions (BT Sports or sky)

    Don't think so. All broadcasters have been using the same gantry in the main stand for, literally, decades. There's no reason I can think of why they would want to build a new gantry in the Govan stand (or at either end for that matter), especially as this would probably cause the whole lot to come crashing down around them.

    It's for the pedestal they prematurely plonked Joey Barton on.

    Few questions as I've no really got much time to go through the thread -

    Whats wrong with Ibrox? Ten million to repair what?

    And in the dim and distant past was Kennedy no interested in buying Hibs? What was the story there?

    Allegedly the roof on the 3 stands apart from the main stand are falling down. They're about 35 years old.

    Kennedy made some public noise about buying Hibs in the late 90s around the time of "Hands on Hibs" which was folk trying to pressure Tom Farmer into either taking a hands on role or selling up to someone who would. TF told him to bolt, Kennedy (who was always more of a rugby guy I think) went and bought Sale Sharks rugby team instead. He then bought and neglected Stockport County to give the rugby team a ground to play at.

    http://www.mirror.co.uk/opinion/foot...illing-3369157

    He made his money in double glazing (Weatherseal), supposedly was a boyhood Hibby (but as I said, more rugby) and has Hun leanings through his brother in law (and doubtless the quantum of his ego ).

    Ibrox is certainly in disrepair and needs big money spending on it, which the glib and shameless liar clearly doesn't have.

    When NewHun had their recent IPO, they promised to use a certain amount of the money raised (6M?) for urgent stadium repairs.

    That obviously didn't happen.

    Scottish cup supporters are the worst of the lot. Thank goodness the daily record drew all of Scotland's attention to this new brand of football hooligans

    spot on, just looked on the weegie council web site and they've changed the application heading from football match to temporary t.v. Studio.

    must have been getting too many enquiries of what it was all about.

    1.5 million shares in RIFC bought yesterday.

    First trade since May, someone sniffing around or the Rangers First crew or their like buying shares with their dosh instead of passing it on to the lying King.

    The trade is worth less than £400,000 though. Not sure why he'd bother with such a small deal?

    There are stories going round that SuperSwally is looking to offload all or part of the freebie shares he was given in 2012.

    Source is a couple of businessmen I know in Houston (Renfrewshire, not the NASA base ;-) )


    I actually thought he already had but, anyway....
