Ally as a striker, you know what is wanted, width and pace and that stands no matter what grade of football. Route 1 is desparation, so why use it and our defence are not the answer. You have handled the transition fine now use your football head and I'm sure Ian Durrant will remind you what is needed. Look at a couple of old videos of Ian, the Coop and yourself and remind yourself of the basics. Also, pick a centre half and let him run the defence and get some cash for the rest.

Believable19 Unbelievable2

Have you ever spoken ot Ian Durrant? He is dumb as rocks... They need to get rid of the lot of them as they have been responsible for the negative play that slows the game almost to a hault.

Agree12 Disagree8

Can someone answer me this ? what does Ian Durrant, do a Rangers !

Agree9 Disagree2

Quality post, surely as a FULL TIME team in a PART TIME league we should be playing a hi tempo passing game keeping the ball below head height not just punting it every time. Opponets then tire quickly leading to goalscoring opportunities. Simples.

Agree7 Disagree1

Will you get cash for Broadfoot?

Agree4 Disagree3

Ian Durrant is an idiot, he needs help to get dressed in the morning he's that thick! Look up 'glaikit' in the dictionary and there will be a picture of him next to it.

Post for EBay. Bids start at 1p, one footballer??? supposedly can play in defence, can't run with the ball, has no positional sense, cannot read a game, tackling and kicking of a very low standard.

the problem that i have got with the rangers performances is with the squad of players we have we should be steam rolling these teams , ally as much of a legend as he is will never be a decent manager in lower leagues he was reared on a silver spoon compared to all other teams

Think it's time we said goodbye to bocanegra and goian. It's plain to c their hearts aren't in it anymore. Boca def shldnt have the arm band. Ross perry is solid and I'm sure broadfoot wld b good beside him. A couple more signings and that shld hopefully c us thru the nxt year and half. Poor performance today, surely that was an early wake up call to show what we'll b up against every week. A season or 3 of cup finals. At least we came away with something. Shows the fight!!!

Broadfoot good, are you having a laugh, he is the cause of the problems.

1p is too expensive. Nobody will take him.

Agree13 Disagree0

He has got to be the worst defender that Football has ever seen. Ally's judgement is sure being put to question because he keeps selecting him, we would be better off if Ally just picked somenone from the crowd.It's got to the stage we will have to pay someone to take him off our hands. In any other job you would be on a written warning by now. ALLY PLEASE GET RID OF HIM AND GIVE SOMEONE....ANYONE THE POSITION

Agree5 Disagree3

I think Kirk should be given a break. He's being played out of position. He was captain at St Mirren and was their standout player. Could easily do a job in div3 at centre half.

Agree3 Disagree5

Are you having a laugh he has played centre half before and was worse. Take your blinkers off thus guy should never ever play again.

Wattie played him every week!

O/T sorry, but after all the recent goings on in scottish football, and all the comments about what's wrong with the game, I fell I must get my tuppence worth after an incident today. I would say I'm a rangers man, but today I travelled back to my home town to take in the greatest derby on this earth. Arthurlie v Pollock.
After racing in to a 3-0 lead, the mighty Lie got sloppy and casual defending caused them to fall to a 5-3 defeat to the better team on the day.
Well anyone who follows junior football knows how hard it is to get a crowd when competing with TV football and the hours of sacrifice from the folk who give time gladly to just make sure they survive.
Now bearing in mind Arthurlie FC who came in to existence in 1874 and are among the oldest clubs in the world, and who once turned Celtic over in the Scottish cup at the old ground named the humph. Today in the middle of the cup tie strathclydes finest turned up and made the announcer put out a message over the tannoy, informing everyone, that anyone parked in carlibar rd, Muriel st, glen st, basically any one at the game, that due to complaints about the cars parked outside the ground. If they were not moved everyone would be getting ticketed for parking on a single yellow.
You can imagine the protests when everyone had to leave to take the cars away. The crowd halved in minutes, but when it was pointed out to the constabulary , that quite a lot of the cars were players of both side, and there was no chance of getting them off the park to move the offending vehicles, which I might add have never caused a problem in the last 50 years, even at the famous all ticket match in the quarters of the Scottish against Auchincleck talbot. ( not a spelling mistake, check out the tickets the SJFA made us spend a fortune on, you couldn't make it up).
So the police proceded to start ticketing all the players cars and anyone who had not moved. Now bearing in mind most of these fines will come out the clubs coffers it's no wonder our games going down the pan. When there I was glad to see a SNP banner from sponsorship, although the Jim Murphy supports Arthurlie one nearly made me sick, given that east Renfrewshire council are doing their best to get our ground off us for wallies. They can't seem to get the fact Arthurlie own the title deeds lock stock and barrel. And unless they get us a, suitable site to play our games we will not sell for their regeneration project. Call me a cynic but this incident along with the fact that our social club has had a astronomical rent hike on our 99 year lease this term says someone's at it and if no one does something about it our games down the stank. Sorry for the rant but I'm fuming.

What kind of social degenerate disagrees with a post of this nature, I'm trying to point out the fact that if you try and do anything in your community, which furthers a local friendship and adds to a bit of social cohesian about a town, all you get is rules and regulations fostered on you by some jumped up janitor telling you is not a good idea and it breaches health and safety rules on some f,; k!&@ local authority regulation, do you know what , I don't care, let's make politics and the decisions they make benefit the peasants, not the politicos for a fu@£1?

Did anyone hear Neil McCann talk about his EBT's?!
Maybe Sky should've asked Gavin Rae?
Gavin Rae signed a three and a half-year contract with Rangers on 1 January 2004. This contract- the official one filed with the SFA & SPL- lists an annual wage of £260,000. Curiously, the contract does not mention appearance money or bonuses. On the very same day, 1 January 2004, Rangers provided Gavin Rae with a letter that said that money would be deposited in a sub-trust of the Murray Group Management Remuneration Trust on his behalf. These amounts total £336,000. The letter also said that Rae would receive £1,000 as an appearance fee for every competitive first-team game played. From February 2004 to July 2007, Rae received five payments totalling £336,000. He also received the following amounts through the EBT for appearances: £11,000 (2003/04); £8,000 (2005/06); £20,000 (2006/07). The appearance money matches his first team appearances for Rangers.This side letter torpedoes the argument that these payments were not contractual. (A simple guide to contract formation under Scots Law can be found here. Short version: these letters constitute a contract under Scots Law). This letter, and the others like it, demonstrate that Rangers used the EBT scheme to pay wages (appearance money) and contractual obligations related to employment. This is just one fragment of the masses of evidence that demonstrate that Rangers were "at it".
Real journalism can be found here 

THIS IS ALL ABOUT TO SPILL OUT INTO THE MEDIA!!

The signings that McCoist has made so far have been awful.. Maybe we should ask for the transfer embargo to be brought forward!! McCoist should go and take his signings with him and broadfoot. give the young players a chance they certainly cant do any worse

Agree19 Disagree8

Which rangers , who cares about ebts or big tax case were in the third division FFS let it go and let's all move on and get back to worrying about what's important in life, just a plea to all football fans in Scotland. Ok we were wrong but no ones dead, so it's up to yous now, balls in your court.
Leave all this and let us survive, who knows it might just heal all the pantomime religious stuff.
Religion, no one else heard of the origin of the species. No, natural selection .

will sum1 please tell me why ally does not shout and scream at the players they need a good kick up the backside and he just stands with arms folded not good anuf in my opinion show ure passion ally and kick there backside before u end up out the door like the rest

Believable23 Unbelievable3

Because he is not a good manager! No idea of tactics,cant change the shape using subs and still persists with thumping long balls.

Agree21 Disagree1

He dosnt know what to shout

Agree20 Disagree1

He done the same last year wen we were getting pumped in Europe...but ran about the touchline like a fan in his trakies wen he was assisstant....i said it then and i'll say it now Ally is a legend but hes never a manager we should be passing our way out of the lower divisions giving young guys games and a grounding to improve...but it was almost the same high ball..back to front...scared to pass the ball..rubbish.....i didnt like le guen but maybe this is the time for that kinda guy to start frim scratch and play football...sadly...ally hasnt got it.

Agree19 Disagree1

So your telling me it's ok for ally to do it but yous always have a go or hate because Lennon does it. Do you see why yous are the continued joke of the world? Everyone else is wrong but your dead and new club are right into doing the samethings.

Agree14 Disagree9

Ah, the primitive approach to football - scream, shout and boots up the jacksie. I have it on good authority that Pep Guardiola used to scream, shout and boot Barca players up the jacksie on their way to La Liga and Euro glory...true story.

Agree8 Disagree4

Ally thrived on route 1 football-long ball up to Hateley and Ally scores from the knockdown .It's all he knows in my opinion. If it's not broke , don't fix it except it is . The fear has gone for now for other teams(not just on the park). Time to maybe move on to win by playing football -SDM tried it with PLG but the fans wanted something else and got it . It's other stuff (not financial but historical )that may be holding you back but I don't know who holds sway . If anyboby cares , I am a Jags supporter with two weans- one Celtic one Rangers(don't have a problem with that)so it's not a religious thing-they went to different schools by choice . You will be made welcome at Firhill when you visit ; same as anybody else is (bar Airdrie Utd ,Morton and Clyde-all historical not hysterical . Enjoy your fitba' before they take it off you(all fans) .

So it was "Sell out Saturday"

Peterhead v Rangers attendance was 4,485. Well done to both sets of supporters turning up.

Inverness v Kilmarnock attendance was 3,012.

Which one was the bottom tier game?

Believable13 Unbelievable11

Well an established 3rd division team drew with another team, suggesting they are both of that standard, so I'd say regardless of the attendance, that ICT and Killie was the SPL game.

Agree9 Disagree5

Same figure as last season for that game so attendance for that game has not gone down even with the rangers not in league

Agree13 Disagree3

What's the point you are making? Why dont you support and worry about your own team and stop playing the old nobody loves us and the spl is gonna fall apart without us game Its getting soooooooo boring now

Aw jeez, god love ye, Peterhead Vs The Rangers was the " bottom tier game"

now that we have all calmed down maybe we can now disect todays performance , which i still think was shocking , players do as they are told , if not they get subbed that didnt happen so really ally needs to take onus for this , tactics shocking ffs thank god we didnt get back into spl we wouldbe candidates for relegation , now that wee durrant and kenny mcd dont have smith to rely on are now in a big bad world ally not good enough to nurture them maybe now walter could offer his services to cg as he is in our own words a real rangers man , but alas no ,he was only coming back to make a quick buck i think

Good on you. Actually glad we got a draw, because dont believe we will lose a game in this league.

So to all moaning get a grip and if we are middle of table by next 6 weeks then start moaning.

We have beaten 2 teams in leagues above us and drawn away with a team that drew with Dundee a SPL side. We will get better most of the others wont.

Agree7 Disagree11

Totally agree with you gdog after everything super ally went through tae and there treating him like that super ally has stuck by rangers through thick and thin and super ally has got my support all the way legend of a guy and am sure he has majority of supporters backing him the ones who don't back him yous know where to go some people should be ashamed of themselves for speaking about super ally like that in super ally i trust

campbell

Agree7 Disagree14

Not a bad shout GDog.
For me it was obvious after the Brechin and East Fife games. Away from home, the home teams will play like a cup final, they will be right up for the game and some of their grounds will be smaller pitches also, tighter games. There will be no time on the ball and probably crowd midfield. We will have to learn to adapt.
At Ibrox I think we will win all the games, but there will be more draws and the occaisional defeat away from home. But the biggest aim is to get promotion, be top of the league at the end of the season and keep building.
Yes, some poor displays today but one thing, they kept going and got that second goal.

Agree5 Disagree8

Questions must be asked though. Are you happy watching that rubbish we saw today?

Agree14 Disagree0

Campbell; your loyalty is admirable,but misguided.Can you remember last season? Falkirk,Malmo,Maribor and a 15 point lead lost, plus dundee utd in the cup, Add the constantly playing players out of position,and a lack of tactics to change games and he is just not a good manager.

Agree14 Disagree2

@4 grow up mate, it's the bottom tier and I'm not sure you appreciate what's happened to this club and our manager. Don't go don't watch don't tune in. Your not needed with that attitude.

GDog
RTID

Agree3 Disagree10

@ 4 no, but was happy with what I seen on Tuesday. Enough to know no 3 rd division team will handle Ibrox because of it pitch size and the bears will pass them off the park.

this is about getting back to SPL, end game.

Agree1 Disagree2

Great come back. Don't come back if your opinion didn't match mine.

Agree0 Disagree2

Good shout mate mcoist held rangers together when we were on life support machine he also looked ill the tims love us arguing lets stick the gether for this long rocky road easiest thing in world supporting a winning team

Ally would have been out of a job if rangers didnt go into admin due to the amount of points he LOST before admin even was a probblem!

Agree3 Disagree1

11 Aug 2012 19:00:31
Cullfoot & go-in were the worse players on the park to day! Must bring in Perry and Cole next week. Would even use Hutton in there, i realise he is a centre mid but would play smith and mccoist in there to get shot of the worse two "pro's" in the league!

Now please answer honestly and
club colours etc out of it. Who is the
most effective manager Ally or Neil
Lennon?

Believable4 Unbelievable5

From a neutral stand point, Neil Lennon is the better manager. Neither is the finished article, so that's not to say it'll always be this way. Both fail to shower themselves in glory with some of their comments. And for the record, Neil Lennon has many flaws, I'm not glossing over them, but for me, at the moment, he's the better Manager.

JimJambo

Agree12 Disagree4

You need to ask? Who brought their team backafter being 15 pts behind ? Whose team won the SPL?
Stupid post if you ask me

Agree13 Disagree8

. Newco fans won't tell the truth that Lennon is the most effective and better manager by a country mile. Ally is out of his depth even in division 3

Briggs

Agree11 Disagree7

Lennon's clearly the more competent manager. I still don't understand their altercation where McCoist had no case to answer at SFA disciplinary hearing and Lennon got a six game ban (reduced to four on appeal).

Agree9 Disagree2

Between gritted teeth my answer has to be Lennon.

Agree9 Disagree2

Can win the pressure games Lennon. Can't blame his tactics but will chase the ref on the pitch.

SELL OUT SATURDAY.....

so when does it begin because looking at the BIG games in the SPHell only Aberdeen and Ross county squeezed an attendance anything near a half decent crowd, in fact 14000 was the figure, the same amount that were 'empty' at ibrox the other night!!

So are the small teams that can only bring 4000 or 5000 that has been showing for the first two games, going to really survive.

Anyway, to the real point I think we need a right back and right mid to even beat a pub team far less a decent 3rd division/part time time.

Broadfoot is not a football player.... I have seen him caught in every game so far, Brechin, east fife, and now Peterhead, no disrespect to they teams, but an SPL experienced player like him should not be getting beat like that.

Looks like we will have a cup final at every ground we are going to travel too for the next few years..

Believable6 Unbelievable15

Why you concentrating on the SPL, your not going to be there for a while, next thing you will be talking about Europe. Lol

Agree14 Disagree1

Maybe ally could try playing football now and again.Lumping it to a big guy to head on is an embarrassment.That makes it a cup final for smaller teams,stand and defend headers like they do every week.

Agree9 Disagree0

If 14,000 turn up to every Aberdeen game - even 12,000 - that will more than make up for no visit of Rangers.

Agree10 Disagree4

On a day when Rangers are lucky to draw with a part time Division 3 team I would have thought that would be your primary concern today. Strange that SPL attendances are your first topic. Why face a reality when slagging others will do eh?

Gaz

Agree14 Disagree2

I thought all of yous would not follow the spl anymore, cause that's what yous were saying right? Seems to me you can't stop watching it and I'm sure your watching Celtic as well so you can have your say if we lose a game, but it's no matter Europe football ahead millions of money earned and won the right way to wipe out the debt and players being chased for upwards of 8 mill, now that is a proper club, enjoy our European nights cause we will as we face the top clubs in Europe and turn heads, as yous get your head turned by div3 clubs and all the lies and stupid comments like green and the bigotry line he uses to attract yous into the club. Do you fined it weird and sad how he has to sink that low in order to become popular to you fans, the rest of the world does!

Agree12 Disagree2

11 Aug 2012 17:58:39
Get a grip, 1st game of the season away to peterhead, we hav played 2 previous games against east fife at home and brechin away, every away game we play this season will be like a cup final for the other teams, people shouting ally must go on here are total clowns give it a few weeks and the same idiots will be shouting ally must stay, get it together and get behingd the team, after been put through the s**t we have I think slagging of the team is the last thing we need

Believable13 Unbelievable13

Completely agree, it is our third game of the season, with no pre-season at all. Naturally we will drop points here and there, the players looked complacent today. It could just be the wake up call they need. One plus point though, everyone is talking about football again, seems strange.

Ally nearly slips up during his interview with SSN, nearly concedes than it was the worst defensive performance he's seen! Then realises what he's about to say and changes course.
Who actually see's him being the manager in 4 years time?i think a couple of performances like we've seen in the cup already and against Peterhead and he'll be out the door. Case packed by Charles Green. His record is actually abysmall!
Who would replace him though?

Believable19 Unbelievable5

£1m a year for Ally and similar for his deputy and the other coaches together.
What a joke.

Agree17 Disagree3

It's Ally's duds all over again. He recruits them, he trains them, he pics them, he plays them, he's the manager, the buck stops with McCoist.
He is our biggest liability.

I smell a rat here.I think we're about to embark on a dismal decade.Rangers are about to reap what they've sown for the last 20 year.its not going to be pretty watching whats ahead.
The really sad thing is there are no guarantees we'll be anywhere near what we were.its all been false in the last 20 years, decades of financial doping, paying players we couldn't otherwise afford (if their salary had been deducted national insurance and income tax), the double contract thing where the s**t is about to hit the fan culminating in Craig Whyte and his regime being unable to afford to pay PAYE AND VAT.
It's a sorry, sorry state and we've got loads of reality checks coming our way.

Agree2 Disagree1

I am unfortunately old enough to remember Jim Denny, all I can say was Denny was known as a utility player. Did a reasonable job in a number of positions but never starring in any one role.
Can you say the same of Broadfoot, doesnt really star in the only position he plays.

Agree1 Disagree1

Willie Mathieson, Willie 'wan fit' Mathieson.

For a short while they played Basil Boli at right back, now that was painful.

Agree0 Disagree0

I remember standing on the terracing at Ibrox and hearing the groans around the stadium when Denny would come on as substitute. Aw naw, it's Denny..

I think everyone's over reacting a little to yesterday's performance. No pre season to speak of (remember Celtic almost lost to German minnows last month). A lot of new players coming in at once. Some young guys who are just finding their feet. And, it has to be said, some "stars" who have been atrocious. Goian and Broadfoot have been shocking.

Things will improve. They'd better...

Jon Moulton in move to take control of ailing JJB Sports

JJB Sports was rescued from the brink of collapse in April
Picture: PA
By Emma RowleyLast Updated: 10:54PM BST 10/08/2012
Private equity veteran Jon Moulton has made an approach to JJB Sports and its bankers in an attempt to take control of the ailing high street retailer.

Mr Moulton's company, Better Capital, has spoken to JJB's principal lender, Lloyds Banking Group, about buying the retailer's outstanding debt.

Lloyds is understood to have directed Better Capital to talk to JJB but the retailer's board, which is attempting to turn the company around, did not engage in discussions.

A Lloyds spokesman said: "We continue to support the business and any third party approaches to the bank would be directed to the company and their advisers."

The approach from Better Capital emerged days after US fund manager Invesco, the biggest shareholder in JJB with a 34.2pc stake, was linked to a similar plan to buy the retailer's debt in a move to seize control.

The idea was discussed at a recent board meeting and is one of many options said to be on the table to revive the struggling chain.

Another could see Dick's Sporting Goods, the American retailer that in April ploughed £20m into JJB in return for a 3pc stake, bring forward a further emergency investment of about £20m, originally scheduled for next year.

At the end of January, JJB had banks loans of £15.9m and put net debt at £11.3m.

Investors are unhappy with the slow turnaround progress at the company, which has avoided administration twice and last month admitted it needed a further cash injection. That led to the resignation of Keith Jones, chief executive since 2010, who was replaced by Beverley Williams, the former boss of La Senza lingerie chain, on an interim basis.

JJB Sports, with 4,000 staff, has been put under pressure by Sports Direct, the chain controlled by Mike Ashley, which has attracted increasing numbers of discount shoppers.

Agree14 Disagree4

All you so called supporters calling for Ally's head cause of 1 draw! Probably the same folk calling him a legend over the summer as he dealt with crisis after crisis! Ally will always have my support as I know he will come good! The Rangers fans hated him when he first came to the club and look how it ended up! He is our greatest ever player in my eyes and deserves a chance to pull this depleted squad out of its quagmire and push us to glory! I'm ashamed of all the laptop loyal who see fit to be critical without knowing what his job must be like! He will be hurting as much as any supporter but ultimately it was certain players thinking they could stroll through the game! Super Ally forever!

If this season is not the time to give our youth players the chance, then when ? Where were Cole, Perry and Hutton ? They've all been selected in the past against top opposition but not to be trusted against Peterhead, a club many have never heard of.

It's all very well to say we want to win all the Cups and the league but we need to let the youngsters know that this is their chance, this is their moment in history to show what they've got. 2-2 ain't good enough. Does this sum up why Ness, McCabe, Wylde and Fleck left us ?

Rangers will be able to borrow as many as nine Newcastle players in a deal that will see Magpies owner Mike Ashley buy a share in the Ibrox club.

Ashley's Sports Direct firm will then take over Rangers' replica kit merchandising operation.
Any Newcastle players switching to Rangers on loan would need to do so before the end of this month, when a year-long signing embargo comes into place for the Scottish Division Three club.

get a f...ing grip 1st game no pre/season new players ok bad performance out the road couple of weeks to get into shape.

Believable7 Unbelievable8

Problem is its the same player, pre season, full games or not, Broadfoot is still a liability.

Agree8 Disagree3

Got to agree. We will not lose a game in this division. Ally has to play players even if it is to get them in the shop window and off the books.

We will get better. However have watched the young lads and they are getting muscled out of challenges. We need 11 seasoned pro's and Ally knows this.

Peterhead were favourites to win this league before we came and have just drawn 0-0 with Dundee.

So don't worry about a thing.

Maybe Ally is the liability (or just the li-nae ability there as a manager).

Believable16 Unbelievable1

So what happend too strolling the 3rd & scoring 6or 7 every game bears,was comical viewing,the rangers have found there level,,side splitting...sally must stay!!!!!!!!!!

Agree13 Disagree0

He won't listen hasn't a clue.
Long bus home :((

Agree11 Disagree0

I think Ally's a jinx! He took over old club and 9 months later went into admin then liquidation.
Now after hell since February with ally doing and saying all the wrong things it's this dire performance. Good player, bad manager and a Jonah ffs.

Agree11 Disagree1

Total lack of passion and commitment today hopefully the kick up the backside they need to realise that they won't get results without earning them. Mcoist needs to sit them all down and ask them who wants to play for the team and not for the money in my opion goian

Agree4 Disagree2

Goiania should never be allowed to play again he does not want to be there and it shows he a liability. As for broadfoot the two goals today were caused by his mistakes and what does he do shrug his shoulders and laughs. Did you see the look on bocas face when Peterhead went in front he looked like he was in shock. McKay and little both scored but how many decent chances did they pure fluff. Black full of attitude again and someone needs to tell him that he's guff at free kicks and corners. McLeod and Wallace only heard their names mentioned once or twice the whole game. McCullough and sheils

Agree8 Disagree0

Ally just stands there with his arms folded he should ripping into his team they think they just have to turn & braodfoot thinks he's a footballer

Im afraid to say that was complete dross ally should go through all of them like a ton of bricks. I know when there is so much expectation on you it can be rough but that was just pure murder. The faster goiania and broadfoot are shot of the better they are pure murder. I definitely think we need a young hungry defence because they just looked lost today. Anyway lads better get used to it that other lot will be on laughing at us in a minute.

Mr Green take note because Ally sure cant, played three games and lost 3 goals so far, and who has caused all three goals, Kirk Broadfoot will somebody please please please get rid of this disgrace of a footballer once and for all.

Believable12 Unbelievable12

Alexander was to blame for the 2nd goal, he should have caught the ball not punch it into pen box.

Agree6 Disagree4

I don't like Broadfoot either but he hasn't actually caused any of the goals, Goian was at fault against Brechin, Bocanegra dived in for the first today and Alexander flapped at the second. Based on what I saw today there will be plenty of mistakes from him as the season goes on without blaming him for other's errors. Also, Ally must have seen that the defence was murder today.

Agree9 Disagree3

People are disagreeing, are you mad, he is abysmal.

Agree3 Disagree5

Broadfoot caused the corner and was sleeping when Alexander cleared it. Broadfoot all the way.

Here's a question to ponder  and one which the BDO people might be interested in.

If Rangers assets were worth 5.5m in June 2012, and since then the business prospects have got much worse with Division 3 football and the main playing assets leaving, how come only 9.8% of Sevco is now worth 2m?

(a) Mike Ashley is a very bad business man (not very likely given his track record).

(b) Oil has been discovered under Ibrox, thus justifying a four fold increase in value despite the business worsening.

(c) The sale to Sevco of the assets of Rangers was at a significant undervalue.

Now I know which one I would bet on if I was a betting man…

I wonder what the BDO people will think?

 

Believable14 Unbelievable0

Ashley has shafted Green and will be allowed to rename the Stadium for a fraction of what it should cost.This should end the debate about if green needs cash.It seems he does

OP talking crap - June no club, assets sold, no league for newco, no spl a cert.
August - club, season ticket sales, SFL and SFA membership and a league to play in.
How is that much worse than having a club with no name, no where to play football?
Unless you've been on planet heidupyirarse, you would have known that the value of the assets etc was of course, a very low figure indeed.
I take it you know nothing about insolvency but you want to appear to. We wait for BDO's findings, which I dont think will focus on the sale but will dig deeper.

These sorts of things happen in business all the time. The value of unlisted shares today can bear no relation to their value whatsoever tomorrow. Sale of the club at under-value would be quite difficult to prove.

Got to laugh at the amount of c*lt#c fans on here still obsessed with what's happenin at Rangers, opinions on everything from our strips to our players and owners, wer is your opinions on your own team? You claim to hate us so much yet all you do is talk about us. Our success in the 90s must hv really messed u all up, is supportin your own horrible lot really that bad that u hv to obsess over us so much? Closet Teddy Bears maybe? Away bk under your rocks you bunch of sad pathetic ar*eholes, we are bored of listenin to your absolute bull. C*lt#ic fans? Dnt make me laugh, Rangers obsessed more like! We will be bk one day stronger than u can imagine n I think yous know it as much as I do!

WE ARE THE PEOPLE!
RANGERS TILL I DIE!

Hi Ed 039, Can you find out the actual attendance for Ibrox the other night? I was at the game and there was in my opinion more than the 38 thou quoted in the gerz website. My seat was sold twice & there were guys sitting in the stairwell in the broomloan rear stand. It was good to be back home though. {Ed039's Note - Yeah mate official just over 38k, unofficial who knows)

Ffs and celtic get it in the neck for understating attendances years ago

Agree5 Disagree1

And when did the tic get it in the neck?

not a rumour Ed, just a wee thought ..... now that most of us fellow Bears are buying our season tickets in a daily basis , my suggestion would be to bring back the " Beam Back " games to Ibrox, when we are playing away from home.. the reason being that most away grounds in div 3 can only hold a small amount ,& not ALL will be showing on sky / espn. this would generate extra income as well as being a family fun day out . season ticket holders get in free , while a £2 pay at the gate per person or £5 adult & 2 children price would be good value, as well as the sale of food drink & merchandise.... what u think ? {Ed039's Note - I don't know what the legalities of that are if the game is on tv)

Believable2 Unbelievable3

Wheres the profit at your prices? The TV company would need paying for the beam back,stewarding and police costs and not forgetting utilities and taxes.

Agree0 Disagree0

You'll need to stick 50p in the telly m8.

The televisions were repaired for commonwealth games, by commonwealth games money. They're not supposed to be using them untill next year.
Favours for Rangers with taxpayers money.

Agree3 Disagree1

Dont see aproblem as long as you share proceeds with home team for allowing beam back...johnnyG
