Folks
Expect a BIG announcement on Monday re: Rangers FC and it isn't going to be pretty. Apparently there will be disclosure of documents which PROVE Craig Whyte's claims that his masterplan is working to be fictitious.

Is this another BIG announcement wonder what it can be this time? Administration yesterday =naw last month
= naw month before= naw.the suspence.

Congrats to bBC and daily record
Your dogs of war have finished
The rangers once and for all
Now we're do you go no gers
Only a decline in your paper sales
Reap what you sow yes we look as we have done wrong
But now all will pay

Cheer up mate!

Did you have your size 9 brown brogues on when you wrote that.

My team v dunfermline.
Mcgregor
Bartley boca goian wallace
Aluko davis edu celik
Hemmings healy

More points dropped way that team, think i'd rather go shopping way the misses than watch that team to be honest

It's hard for me to say this but I'd rather have clubfoot as RB over Bartley. but I agree with the rest.

No papac?

We're you won of the 30,000 glory hunters shopping with the misses last week then when your team needed support
Don't rush back glory hunter armchair non supporter
Feck right off

Papac will plat at left back and at the expense of the young boy hemmings, Wallace will play left wing.

Naw just one of the fans that told you Craig whyte was a crook six months ago, you so called REAL fans are the real ones to blame as you just buried your heads in the sand and some of you still are.

Cousin will be a beast......4 in a row, here we go. superb signing. SC

35 year old from the gabon league? this is a step backwards,80k for three months?

£80k for 3 months.........if he can actually get paid by you dodgy feckers! lol

HAIL HAIL
ChrisBhoy

Won't play tomorrow beacuse he's not got International clearance and won't play in the next game because he's suspended - you couldn't make it up.

Schadenfreude CSC

Ahh more low esteem and envy from the dhims. You guys really need to check out the true meaning of Schadenfreude and the scientific results of the research carried out about it. You will never learn.

Said before if we go, you lot will suffer too - maybe not right away but in a few years the SPL will be more of a footballing backwater than what it is now.

Oh how I wish that was my song, BRILLIANT! but oh dear the poor EDs are now going to get so many crying bears on moaning, enjoy the BANTER and please keep it clean hail hail Timalloy

Glad you wasted a month or so making that tripe up,short reply is all you are worth.....trueblue.....

Class! Hail hail

Mind the gap

DazzaBhoy

Csc what happened at the ICT game with your so called best fans in the world? Csc what happened at the hearts game with your so called best fans in the world? I can go on and on and on and on and on. Cfc fans are Scotland's shame. You can sing what I posted to the tune of ( oasis wonderwall)
WATP

Song would be funny if most of it was true, for all the thick Tims that come on this site, this tax scheme was when McLeish was manager nothing to do with the 9 in a row, so get that in your heads and give it a rest. Blue4ever

STV News 6.00p.m.

Reporting on the Sheriffs findings in the £90k case against Craig Whyte in relation to roofing repairs to his home, the Sheriff found that Craig Whyte was a totally unreliable witness.

This is a case outwith of football and the Sheriff is giving this ruling, so no claim can be made that it is the media or Celtic supporters with an agenda. The Sheriff said his evidence contradicted other evidence.

This man is a total embarrassment. He cannot do anything without it being underhand.

I heard he will address all the worried Rangers fans tomorrow, here is start of speech, "once upon a time"....
and you ask why we Tims gloat, even when he is practically called a liar in court you all still fall for all his fairy tales, you deserve administration just for being so stupid. Timalloy

He is a liar , a con man and a charlatan

Yeah out with football yet the main BBC story had Ibrox as a backdrop and Rangers crests on either side, also note this episode was prior to his acquisition of Rangers.... hmmmm

Remind you Tim there is not a lot of bears believing Whyte so once again you come on here and make false accusations without the facts. Blue4ever

Plus ill also say on the Robbie Keane Daniel Cousin comparison that it was Dermot Desmond who payed for that deal out of his own pocket, didnt cost Celtic a penny. I know its hard to comprehend for uz that a majority shareholder would actually put his hand in his pocket to help his club.

Drew

Hence why they are introducing financial fair play.

David Murray dipped into his own pocket to buy 9 in a row!

Then dipped into HMRC's to compete with Martin O'Neil!

DazzaBhoy

Ate and how much money did brother Martin spend, so your point is. Blue4ever

10 Feb 2012 16:14:48
To all the mhugs questioning rangers motive for signing Daniel cousins i have 2 words for you.. robbie keane..you had all your hopes pinned on him turning your season round for the tidy sum of £1 million for half a season how did that turn out eh bhoys?it didn't and you squandered all that mulla for sweet f all get it right up you 5 grand a week is a bargain for a player with cousins ability you were bumped by a so called fan

watp

jacko

Keane scored 16 goals in 19 games in total in a relatively poor Celtic squad.

Do you see cousin doing that? Exactly.

Matthew

Well money wise he cost nothing really ?

cousin isnt world class for his so called 'ability'?

your club is a shambles & look forward to the mess that will happen after the tax case.

ps jacko where are the players?

lenny

"Relatively poor squad" ? No change there then, eh ? Cousin ain't for me, but he'll still do a job that we desperately need right now............ Come back in May, china.... AGer63

And Keane was also in his prime at 29. Hardly the same situation. Its a sad day when uz are desperate to get a 35 year old in who cudnt get out of ibrox quick enough last time so it gives uz a fighting chance of beating the team who currently sit bottom of the spl.

Drew

Lenny,If And I mean If you win the title ,please come on and gloat,about all things Rangers,be it,the football results,the crowds,and the tax case,but until then,ssshh,you aint won anything yet,and i really hope we get a positive result with HMRC,Rangers will prevail .

Bellendy... Roy keane.. Robbie keane.. Paid an absolute fortune to apparently "seal" the title ! Ha that worked out well for you lot! PaulRFC

Denial!!denial!!!fingers in ears..wake up,rangers are on death watch,past the critical stage,the life support machine is ready to be unplugged!!!!!so dont even bother disagreeing,as no one can save rfc now..rip

Cousin wasn't wanted anywhere else......hence the free transfer!

If he was offered £15k more to play down south he would have been there, truth is his agent Mckay is lying!

Would anyone player play in a worse league for £15k less a week?

DazzaBhoy

Clearly Celtic fans didn't watch much of the african cup of nations because cousin was getting meaty praise for his performances

Mr Blonde

Rave reviews? They only played 4 games and he was on the bench for two of them!

In all the doom and gloom one of the many subjects that is mentioned is the fact that Murray Park does not produce players,which is a load of nonsense,the problem is we just either loan them out or get rid of them the list is endless sine the place opend in July 2001.
The other factor mention with Murray Park that it has not paid for itself again a load of nonsense.
The place cost 14m the club has sold the following players who came through Murray Park
1 Barry Ferguson to Blackburn 7.5 m 03/04 to Blackburn then bought back 04/05 for 4.5 m then sold again for 1.25 m in season 09/10 so all in all club made 4.25m
2 Alan Hutton sold for 9m season 07/08
3 Charlie Adam season 09/10 firstly Blackpool then Liverpool with fee and the follow up 10% clause the total was 1.35m 4 Danny Wilson 2m season 10/11 so in total club has raised 16m against the reported 14m it cost to build the place.
What we have done with the other youths etc that have come through the system and been allowed to move on is another story.

Considering Rangers don't own Murray Park and David Murray does, your comments regarding the cost to develop it are irrelevant.

Well aware that David Murray owns Murray Park my point was that while he did and was also the owner of Rangers FC the club covered the costs of the build of Murray Park via the sales of the players i mentioned

Did ferguson come through murray park?thought he was well before that.artybhoy

10 Feb 2012 13:46:11
how embarrassing rangers have become. the players are a joke. people going on about aluko and lafferty to save our season and now this. Daniel Cousin oh my god he was pish the first time and now hes old doesnt have a club and has a rubbish goalscoring record. the whole of europe must be laughing their asses of at us . ally should quit.

Maybe you should go support another team. Pessemist supporters are not needed.

Mr Blonde

Be very welcome,we have no issues with defectors,and you,ll see football.artybhoy

Can he or can he not play against Dunfermline? Cousin I mean?

Not, he is suspended.

Naw hes no. he served his ban at hull
shotts rfc {Ed014's Note - No he didn't.He has a ban to serve.

He can play it's a Fact! it's all over the place he served his ban whilst playing for hull so put it to bed *ksd* {Ed014's Note -

soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story/_/id/1019776/rangers-hope-to-bring-back-free-agent-cousin?cc=5739

sport.stv.tv/football/scottish-premier/rangers/296720-daniel-cousin-in-talks-over-rangers-return/

Is this guy having a laugh. He somehow thinks it is possible to serve a ban while playing in a different countries league? must be smoking some strong stuff. marka

10 Feb 2012 13:06:59
i think cousin will do a great job with aluko running off him plus why is there all this panic about alukos contract? theres an option for a further 2 years. my team for dunfermline would be

mcgregor broadfoot goian bocanegra papac
celik davis ness wylde
aluko
cousin

plenty of attacking options and in ness possibly one of the best young players in britain

feeny

The aluko deal works both ways and already cnampionship teams are sniffing about.ness is injured,and will take a while to get up to speed.the cousin signing is for me a joke.35 yrs old and close to 100k for three months!

Why put celik on right when hes a left winger
he was crap on right last week

Feeny have you started early on the amber nectar. ness is one of the best in britain dear oh dear. aye we will see. i predict he will be at a mid level championship club in about 2 to 3 years.

Former Rangers chairman Alastair Johnston has asked the government's insolvency service to clarify "certain financial arrangements" relating to the takeover of the club.

Craig Whyte acquired Rangers from Sir David Murray last year, but the club remains financially troubled.

Whyte has admitted securing funds of about £20m from the company Ticketus in a deal over future season ticket sales.

Johnston said: "Rangers' stakeholders are now demanding full transparency."

"I have had numerous approaches following the recent revelations in the press about the acquisition of Rangers Football Club and the use of future season ticket money.

"I am not in a position to answer all the questions put to me, but I do recognise the issue is causing much concern.

"I believe this is a prevalent view amongst Rangers' stakeholders who are now demanding full transparency about the funding of the acquisition of the club, its current financial status, and most importantly, the way forward.

"In order to allow all of the options potentially available to stabilize the club be explored, there must be total disclosure of all the underlying obstacles that need to be surmounted in order to achieve this.

"Therefore, in my capacity as the chairman of the club during the period when it has been alleged that certain financial arrangements of concern were executed by the buyer, I have formally requested that the Intelligence & Enforcement Directorate investigate and clarify this matter once and for all which is surely in the interests of all concerned."

Very interesting times, wat does Johnstone have to gain? Edds, bears, does anyone know if a takeover is even possible now and would it not take King to be onboard to happen? If the shares are suspended it surely makes it impossible? CheltBlue

Story going around is that johnston was also using EBT's. strange how he's so enraged now?

Im sure SDM paid plenty of his stooges through EBT's. Theres definately a bigger story round the corner and may not be about Whyte. (would make a change) CheltBlue

BBC lunchtime News. David Murray's company MIM (previous owner's of Rangers) have also now asked for an investigation into Whyte's takeover.

Dont see the logic of MIM getting involved.due dilligence should have worked both ways and i cant see them wanting to get involved in this mess again due to their current financial troubles.it just seems to get more messy with every day.

10 Feb 2012 09:57:23
Daily record claiming cousin to seal move to rangers today after turning down 20k a week from Birmingham! Ha!

Load of nonsense! at that age one last pay day is vital.sounds like agent mckay at his old tricks again.

10 Feb 2012 08:10:02
so why could'nt give jagger 3.500 a week but give cousin 7,500

I'm assuming McCoist feels Cousin will bring more to the starting eleven that Jaager would have done.

GovanFR

We need a right back bartleys lost on the right

I'd rather use those wages and have got Jaager and Riordan. Or even Boyd on a short term contract

Looks like pumping high balls up to a lone striker is allys vision of forward thinking!

10 Feb 2012 07:44:26
if we dont get answers from whyte. whose going to renew season books

I'll renew as long as administration has happened or the threat of it is gone.

GovanFR

Govan FR - if administration happens Whyte has the right to call on Rangers to pay him £18m from their assets.

Yea I know, my point is season tickets become invalid if we go into admin, so I'd rather not renew until its dealt with.

GovanFR

10 Feb 2012 02:12:03
Listen guys whytes no buying anyone coz we are in for some six months.. We are losing the case an going into admin.. Lose our ten points this season...gamble still finishing 2nd... Then from admin whytes plan A fires into action which will include him getting healthy backing from king - Ellis an others then the start of next season we will be sitting pretty... Remember aswell even with money and a squad of depth in these footballing times for either old firm to go four in a row is a big ask! WATP

Sounds ideal but Im sure the points deduction would be next season. I think either way a tough couple of years ahead. Dont forget we're still in recession. Football is a very low priority in the big scheme of things. Ill still be a bear at the end though. CheltBlue

The 10 point deduction kicks in as soon as you go into administration and would be this season. If you are still in administration at the start of next season you start on -10 points. This will continue until you come out of administration.


Ian

It is 25 point deduction for three seasons

No its not a 25 point deduction for three seasons.

GovanFR

Its 10 points when you enter admin and this continues till admin event is closed.

Hi Ed, no disrespect to you, however as a regular reader and occasional poster on this site, (and I appreciate you listing my posts), I have been irked a little by some of the posts put on this site (a Rangers site) by other fans. I read a reply to a Rangers poster on this site by an ed (not sure which ed?) when they had the same disgruntlement as I'm having to be told if u don't like it don't come on the site. No disrespect Ed but, this is supposed to be a Rangers rumour/chat/discussion site yet it is inundated with comments/posts/rumours etc by Celtic fans. Not that I nor probably any other rangers fan on this site has a problem with that, but in moderation please. I mean, would. And do all the posts from rangers fans make the Celtic site edited by Ed007? I can tell you the answer to that....NO! So, all I'm asking Ed is please make this a majority Rangers page. Is that too unreasonable? {Ed001's Note - the site is not a Rangers only site, it is to talk about Rangers, if most of the posts talking about Rangers don't come from Rangers fans, well tough really. I, and the other editors, do delete a large number of posts, for various reasons, I am not going to start deleting posts because of the allegiance of the person posted it. There are many sites for Rangers fans only, this is not one of them.}

Have to say Ed I agree that it is a site for everybody, but recently I have found some of the posts to be on the verge of insulting. A certain individual is using names etc and calling people who funny enough are not always on here because they are working, tax dodgers. That's not what the site is for, sure make fun of the team but give some other things a rest. Blue4ever {Ed001's Note - a lot are deleted for those exact reasons you give mate, a few still won't learn and get blocked.}

Why not give the eds a hand,grow a pair and leave a name.If you are gutless enough to post without leaving a name you can't really moan.How are they meant to know if you are a Bear or a septic fan when they have no way of ID you.Some guys on here really need to grow up and realise it is banter,if you can't take it go to FF and read how great everything is.

HamiltonMark WATP

Once again an unamed bear claiming to be a regular, how can you prove that if you wont leave a name. As ED001says it is a banter site, look up this concept and then participate LOL Timalloy (Celtic Fan)

Cheer up FFS

Basically its bums on seats. If the majority of posters are Celtic fans so be it. Its business. The bears that enjoy this site are just about all gone anyway. Driven away by generic tax, liquidation, gloating posts which at this time are speculation. CheltBlue.

I think your perception leaves a bit to be desired chltm bear...

To the OP, start behaving like an adult. You sound like your throwing your toys out the pram, with your "make this a majority rankers site"! Your embarrasing yourself and your fellow bears.

Have you never sat in a pub with supporters of other teams? We discuss things that are in the paper, on the TV or on the net......whether that is Tax issues, lack of signings or poor attendances! I'm quite sure you sat with your mates laughing at Celtic during the nineties and close to going bust, so don't give it the moral highground now!

The Ed's work hard keeping out the bampots, without getting paid i might add! They screen all the texts and edit them accordingly or just delete them if necessary.

Also in defence of Ed 007 he allows most of the rankers fans posts! If you cast your (tiny) mind back to when rankers were 15 points clear the Celtic page was full of gloating rankers fans yet the Ed allowed them as it is BANTER!

DazzaBhoy

Rangers fans don't go on the sceptic site because they have nothing to gloat about now.Thats a fact and I'm a True Blue Bear.Its swings and roundabouts,some sad sad people on here.I'm sure one ed said once they would rather have 10 good posts than 1000 stupid ones,maybe if some of the other Gers fans could learn alot from that.how many sad little one line posts are even on here from Bears.get a grip and fight back ffs

Rankers fans are in hiding thats why they are not on the fantastic Celtic site.You have nothing to talk about or slag us over so you all went into hiding.the Celtic site was full of your lot when the gap was 15 points, where did you all go after that.If youre a sh***bag then fine but don't blame the eds,they all do a great job. Mind The Gap

Dont agree with you dazzabhoy you along with miko & timalloy are the 5hit stirrers you'll get no respect from me if you cant even give us our proper name (same applies to all bears who use septic ect.)

agree the eds do a great job but the bottom lineis theres too much 5hit stirring goin on you have to remember everyone different n takes offence to different things

I don't sh1tstir any more than your fellow bears on the Celtic page......it's called banter! Take offence all you like, if you don't like it don't read or post!

DazzaBhoy
