lennon saying his team winnig the league won't be devalued. well neil hadn't it been for the mess rangers have been in since mr whyte came in and the lack of money to invest in our team, rangers would have won the league in a canter. celtic fans believe their team are capable of competing in europe- how dilussional are they!

Believable8 Unbelievable8

We can do good in europe, we showed it this year by playing in the hardest group which we should have advanced if not for own goal and fake pen. udinese top of italy at time, Atletico madrid, rennes. so more europe to come and we will help the coefficient points.

Agree5 Disagree2

Celtic not dropping a point since the 29th of October is why we are on top. Another opinion devaluing the rest of Scotland.

GoldCoastBhoy

Agree6 Disagree3

Why the hell would you think you would win the league at a canter???

you SURRENDERED a 15 point lead in the space of what, 6 weeks, are a further 4 points off the pace with a game extra played(not including the 10 point deduction), out of ALL cup competitions, a manager devoid of managing.....and we are delusional? thicko


taco

Agree12 Disagree2

Bloody hell! for the last time, you have spent almost the exact same amount as celtic.stop this nonsense.celtic threw it away last year and rangers hung in and got the results that mattered.whyte has nothing to do with the fact you have a manager who squandered what money he had available to him.bedoya,mckay,ortiz,all mccoist signings who he wont play.........green jhedi

Agree6 Disagree2

It was only ever 9points. It COULD have been 15 had Celtic lost 2games in hand but they never, love how all you timmys love to claim a 9point turn around was 15points.

For being a rangers man all my life i am saddeded by the continual abuse to our hero Ally McCoist, we all know it wasn't going to be a bed of roses when he took over, but do you seriously think that sir walter would do better at this present times, Ally is a living legend not just to us the people but to the scottish nation, he needs us now more than ever, he maybe tactically inept but he also needs time to learn, he has been walters understudy for numerous years now and i do not beleive that training or practices in place have changed since, walter never played for rangers Ally did he knows the script i would just ask again for all the true blues outhere we are the people and we will continue only with the following that i have seen this 32 years of my life.
let's get beihind him in this troubled time for the sake of our club for as long as we are WATP lets make this continue.

Fielder Fae buckie

Believable2 Unbelievable8

I know ally is a living legend but that does not dissolve him from critisism. You use the word abuse but from what i have read it is not abuse but honest opinions.

I think walter would do slightly better but if i am been honest the football under walter was defensive and negative.

i think ally should have ripped up the walter smith tutorial at the start of the season and done things his own way.

Agree6 Disagree0

Get a grip mate! we are not slating him as a player, but his record as manager is atrocious! he need s to leave with his credibility intact. and yes, sir walter smith would've done alot better, i say that with no doubt whatsoever in me. sometimes you just have to be realistic. everyone wanted ally mccoists tenure to work out but it isn't. his tactics are wrong, his signings are inneffective. i would not however release him from rangers. he has a role to play.

I don't know who sceptic are, but here's what i found in the dictionary:


skeptic [ˈskɛptɪk]
n
1. (Philosophy) a person who habitually doubts the authenticity of accepted beliefs
2. a person who mistrusts people, ideas, etc., in general
3. (Philosophy) a person who doubts the truth of religion, esp Christianity

i'm not sure how a philosophy could go into administration...nevermind....watp

ed whats the population in our fanbase and what countries have the greatest links to it?
AndyBear98 {Ed001's Note - impossible to say mate, so many people have tried to take fan surveys etc and the results are just confused and confusing. For instance you have lots of people who just look out for a result, rather than truly following or supporting a team. Then you have those who follow different clubs in different countries, do they have the real emotional connection to be counted or not? They might go to a game or two for a day trip but that is about it. The only way of knowing is to look at supporters clubs around the world, though even those figures are nebulous at best. There is, at the very least, a large ex-pat community around the world that support Rangers, those places with a lot of Scots are where you will find them.}

Believable1 Unbelievable2

When leaving ibrox in 2002 director hugh adam stated that murray wanted to tap in to a world market.he said they started a scheme to try and find out rough numbers for world wide fans,after communicating with ex pats it was decided that this was a waste of time as the number was so small.he also stated that rangers were predominatly a west of scotland club no more. the article was printed in the scotsman...........green jhedi

My big mate Jimmy is lining up a bid to buy rangers over. He reckons if Craig Whyte got it for £1 then he is willing to stump up a fiver. Not a bad return on Whyte's original investment. Jimmy's background is in cars. He bought a Nova in 2002 for £500, cleaned up the engine and re-sprayed it then sold it for £1200 two weeks later. I know- magic eh? Just the type of guy we need. I think he could bring a lot to the club.

so its not sallys fault he cant motivate a team with hundreds of international caps between them in front of a packed partisan home crowd to beat a team with barley a cap between them , you could sell your whole team from today and your wage bill would still be 5 x killies . sally must thank god for admin every night after being knocked out of 4 cups and presiding over a 19 point ( maybe 22 point by tomorrow ) swing in the league , yet no media out cry ,fab1

Believable5 Unbelievable0

I agree with your post mate. The only guy coming out of this admin stuff looking good is ally. all the media attention has turned to rangers cash problems and not the inefficiency of ally.

Agree5 Disagree0

I think you need to do you maths again tim it's 14 and if you win tomorrow 17 and that a big if c'mon the hibees

Agree0 Disagree0

Above poster can you do the math, celtic were 15 behind rangers win tomorrow we would be 7 ahead (plus 10 for admin) thats a 22 point swing -15 to +7 then add 10 for admin deduction +17 ahead, booyaa

I posted on this page this morning regarding super Ally, that his team selections and tactics were to blame for our European exits, domestic cup exits and got the usual “ah you’re not a real supporter”.
Well not only has he got us tossed out of all cup competitions, he has also been the architect of us losing a 15 point lead in the league prior to our 10 point deduction.
I have since read on this forum people saying it’s not Ally’s fault because of the mess we are in at the moment. Well at the start of the season he still had a good enough squad to beat 2 pub teams in Europe and 2 average Scottish teams in our domestic cup competitions. His persistence in playing players out of position and his lack of playing some of the younger guys is nauseating. When we do struggle or go behind he has not got a clue how to change a game.
Ally has continued to play either Wallace or Papac in left midfield for weeks now when even a blind man can see that this is a problem. Today he started with Papac left mid, then moved him into centre mid moving another 2 players out of position to accommodate this. The reason we went down to 10 men was Allys fault, if he had left Papac where he was then he would not have been in that position to make that tackle. Even more if he did not even start with Papac at all then the chances are we would have finished the game with 11 men.
So spare me the “oh it’s not Ally’s fault” and open your eyes to what he has been doing all season. As much as I idolised Ally , as far as I can see and witnessed this season he does not have the makings of a manager.
Sorry Ally time to move on.

Believable14 Unbelievable1

Fantastic , articulate post. I agree with everything written. My fear with the current administration situation is that it will gloss over McCoist's serious shortcomings as a manager. It seems to be forgotten, Walter Smith had to motivate a squad of payers against the same EBT/HMRC investigation and uncertainty throughout his second reign....have the Banks man dictate a no
transfer policy for 2 years...operate against the rumours of the club being sold....as well as other distractions such as booze gate yet look at the record of success during his period. Prior to Rangers, look how he lifted Vogts Scotland squad from being ranked 88th in FIFA rankings to a high of 13th in just over 2 years sing much of the same squad! It comes down to man management. McCoist does not posess that critical skill for any successful manager. McCoist's record as manager is arguably worse than LeGuen's....that is not an opinion, that is fact based on the records. Out of two European and Domestic cup tournaments at early stages to teams considerably inferior to Rangers. Losing a realistic 9-point lead in the League (Celtic did have 2 games in and lets not forget) which has now been increased by a further 4, going on 7 points as of today. Rangers WILL survive Adminstration. I believe Whyte will be gone. I believe a string future will arise from this mess. My only real fear is that McCoist will be the man in pace to lead the team out of this position and or tht responsibility, I am afraid he is sadly lacking! So fellow bears, don't let McCoists success as a player blind you to the reality he is NOT a Manager

What's the deal with cousin, was parked behind him today. If he has signed does that mean that we are paying him and yet not allowed to play him?

Surely if he is released we will have to pay him off, any views

Believable0 Unbelievable2

U shd ave asked him then

Agree1 Disagree0

Looks like he has a contract. RFC can appeal the decision, but will the SFA register a new player to a club that is in admin. Might be a SFA ruling against that.
Yes you're prob right about a pay off but don't know how the Administrators will cover that. Can't remember if they authorised his employment.
Iam Legend

Agree1 Disagree0

Registration refused cos your in admin i think..............green jhedi

Genuine question from a Motherwell fan here. If Rangers do not sort out their finances by the appropriate deadline and therefore get a ban from European football, does anyone know if that means the second CL spot would go to the team in third place?

Thanks.

Ajeno.

Believable10 Unbelievable1

It gets put to the next team in the league-currently yourselves

ryanrfc

Yeah it does but dont think u will need to worry as mwell will be 2nd by then if the clueless wonder is still in charge

Probably mate, and i dont think we will be out of this mess for a while so enjoy urselfs , you"ve played some nice football this year.. craig+babybear

Agree1 Disagree0

Yes it will be third place who gets the place. However I can see motherwell making second place this season. Deservedly.

ps It is not a Euro ban it is no Euro license which would prohibit them from playing in Europe.

Agree1 Disagree0

Yes mate,but if Rangers keep playing the way they are then 2nd place could be yours.

Jungle Bhoy.

Agree2 Disagree0

Ajeno,
You'll be better going to the celtic page cos they know everything.
Ask them when they go to EPL who'll get their CH Lgue spot.
UEFA will enforce their ruling. The second spot wil probably go to the 3rd placed team if RFC are second placed and do not meet UEFA's rules. Ask one of the EDs they're usually good.
Iam Legend

Agree1 Disagree0

I would assume so mate..............green jhedi

Agree1 Disagree0

A club that is in administration is officially banned from playing in any European competition. If we come out then we are eligible, if we are liquidated then out completely. As it stands right now Motherwell would have to qualify from the 3rd round of CL qualifying.

Agree1 Disagree0

If its not us, i hope its Motherwell that goes in to Europe !

Agree1 Disagree0

I think there's only one CL spot for the SPL winners and even they'll need to go thro' 3 qualifying rounds next season

Agree0 Disagree3

On a more serious note , the current situation at Ibrox could have major financial implications for everyone ... Take me for instance , i'm feckin rooked from celebrating all week lmao , Drewzybhoy

No...............2 teams will enter the 3rd qualifying round, followed by play off round. The way we are going, it won t matter, shouldn t finish below Hearts though.

I think if rangers go down the swawny alot of the charity donations including the £250,000 the rangers foundation donated to unicef in the last 3 years plus the 50 grand check Mr whyte handed to unicef last year will be sorely missed.its not only unicef but many other charities that will miss out on much needed vital cash its not only rangers but both halves of the old firm that donate generous amounts of cash for good causes plus all the players visiting Yorkhill sick children on own time is fantastic for these youngsters to meet their heroes remember its the fat cats who are tax dodging swines not the players or Joe punter lets not let these greedy men destroy the good name of our club

the most important thing is that the club survives , we need at least 5 millioners to get together put 20 million each in and buy the club ,then once set up and running get a share issue with the fans and they get some of their millions back, the problem last time with share issue was that murray said if the fans didnt take shares he would put the 50 million in that was a boob on his part saying that,so now I think the fans would step up if it was to happen.

The one player who tried today was kerkar. He played his heart out for the shirt. The rest of the team have it too comfy. They know they can just turn up on sat and play the whole game. This leads me to one conclusion which is to play the youth far more than we do currently. These guys have something to prove and will play for the shirt unlike the current crop of first team players.

You should be stripped of your cheated titles, it only makes sence, would you not be saying the samething? dont be so ignorant. you should stop shouting out hate towards others and realize and open your eyes that your club did wrong,so be angry at them. and dont worry about Celtic, he will bring the treble and soooo much more.

Agree9 Disagree3

Neil Lennon was asked a question so answered it, same as Danny Lennon did. You bought paid players illegally to win trophies in Scotland and play in Europe, therefore you cheated. No-one on here has said anything about Danny Lennon talking about your mighty club!

Lenny's the manager of Celtic and he's going to win at least 2 trophies this year! Maybe even the treble!

Why do you state he is lucky to be manager of Celtic? Did the Celtic board inform you that he would have been sacked if we'd lost at Rugby Park! It was his intention to offer his resignation IF we'd lost! Grow up son!

Wit about lennon and matt mcglone on tv talkin about the gers situation , pure hatred and bitterness from 2 sad angry twisted wee men , pretty worrying , tedbear

Point 2. Why are you all so obsessed with Mr Lennon, Its starting to become creepy.

Where do you knuckledraggers get off?
pure hatred and bitterness?? ffs, Lennon was asked a (loaded) question, and answered it as honestly as he could, showing sympathy for your manager and players, and quite rightly said he would have something to say if it were to transpire that he, and his team were cheated out of trophies.

i see NO hatred, or bitterness in his, or Lawell's comments for that matter

people like tedbear and the un-named OP, you need to take a long hard look at yourself and realise it's folk like you that are the problem, inciting hatred, bigotry and capaigns of violence

Not correct 36,000 r already sold pre season,so not any great finance raised,every penny spent by a fan has made mr whyte a penny richer,if this home game saved u how do u expect to survive next 2 weeks with it being away games,think it threw

Agree3 Disagree0

The financials don't stack up but the important number really is the 50,000 that turned up. Let's hope this can be maintained until the end of the season - that would be a real display of support and loyalty to our beleagerd club. Some of the posts have been critical of the players and the manager. Based on the performances under normal circumstances I would say fair enough but these are not normal circumstances. This is a time for unconditional support, for the fans to show their appreciation for 140 years of honours and accomplishments and tradition that Rangers represent. Just like an ailing loved one we should be glad they are still here with the hope of living to fight another day and not start criticising their current performance under nearly impossible circumstances.

why are some in the forum getting on ally mcoist back bad news

Believable4 Unbelievable1

Are you serious? fair enough mccoist is rangers to the core and trys his best but his decision making is atrocious! his signings have failed miserably, his tactics are ridiculous and he's making a mockery of himself trying to manage under these circumstances! he even admitted craig hyte said he could bring someone in at the end of the transfer window and he refused because he thought the squad was good enough if he couldn't get holt!

Agree3 Disagree1

He's the manger, he chooses the team and tactics neither worked. Too many poor teams have turned us over to easily and ally has no plan b at all? Need more experience n we need it now

As for your team name one player who gave 100% today for you? You lot came out and filled the stadium showing that you are behind the team (well done for that) but what did you get in return? I know if it was the hoops I'd be going nuts but it's not, it's all on your team they didn't repay your support so why moan about Celtic fans doing exactly what any rival fans would be expected to do. If you fancy a moan (and I don't blame you) moan about those who put you where you are and the boys in your team thst didn't fancy fighting for you today eh??

just like too say , a poor performance today , ally has been great through this tuff time , but he has no idea how too manage a team on the park , he should leave soon as possible we need too start building the team from the top , and ally should be asked too go or he should go under is own accord because when new managment take over he is out off a job , if the team keep playing like this there will be no europe football next year , which only adds too our woes when it comes too cash , we must bring in a new manager just know too grab the players that we will have left and make sure we finish 2nd in the league , with the players that will be left we should still be strong enough too beat teams lik kilmarnock . let me say again ally has been great with press [etc] but please ally go and lets get on with it , bring 2nd home and after whats been happening that would be a great result for us , what do yous think

If there is no liquid(cause you get treated diff then every team in spl), then other teams in the spl will see their chance to make it in europe and i can see you's ending up 3-4 place. and it will bring change to the spl since now everyone would be playing fair and within their means. its now the chance for the others to have a go in europe and with Celtic looking strong hopefully the coefficient points go up and that the spl gets better/respect.

Agree1 Disagree0

Yep allys got to go, bring in big terry butcher he knows how to build a squad with the bear bones and on the cheap (cos that's where it's goin) bug tel will do the job.

Just watching a stream on Rangers TV. In all fairness they have the place jumping i hope we keep our support up.
But the person on their commentary quoted a full 1940 speech from Winston Churchill.
The comparison is the impending war with Nazi tyrants to Rangers owing money to the government of its country.
I may be too young to remember but can someone inform me as to any adversity Rangers has actually faced that is not this current one of their own doing?

Believable5 Unbelievable0

The war started in 1939 - 'impending war with nazi tyrants' 1940 speech?
what are you on about?
did the commentator say 'impending war with nazis' and then compare it to the tax owed?
Explain.
Iam Legend

Agree1 Disagree0

It did you're right 1939-45, the first year was described as the "phony war" go an look that up.
The commentator was rallying the rangers support with the aforementioned speech.
The adversity you now face is administration brought on by not paying HMRC debt.
The comparison is therefore explicit.
Explained?

as i think year for year during that period of time celtic were in debt too

Believable1 Unbelievable2

Ffs.when is it going to register with you eejits,that being in debt and winning trophies isnt the problem.it was paying your top players via illegaities involving their tax payments,hence,the taxman wants his money back now.so you had guys playing for you who may not have,had their wages been deducted of tax properly.jesus.thick or what.artybhoy

Not for one minute as a Rangers supporter am i please at what this con man Craig Whyte has done in the space of 9 months. Always thought something was strange that the minute he arrived it just had to be him that made himself available to accept presentation of last seasons league flag. Anyone with any honour would have demanded that either Walter Smith was invited back or perhaps John Greig was the person who represented the club. I hope i speak for the vast majority of Rangers suppporters when i say this guy should never be allowed back into this club,and David Murray should be forced to inform us all exactly what checks he made on the Crook.

Believable3 Unbelievable1

The rangers tax case and philmacgiolla bain were warning for TWO YEARS about the tax problems .they also sounded warnings about whyte that were shot down with the "tim rubbish" theory.a glance would have warned decent fans like yourself to beware.i have no time for the WATP mob but feel sorry for decent gers fans having to suffer the nonsense your club is going thru..............green jhedi

Craig whyte says in the sun that he had not taken a single penny out if rangers and that every penny has been properly accounted for. I believe him. Why? Well, he bought gers for a pound, that accounts for it all. The rest of the money, ticketus, jelavic, unpaid taxes went through one of his dodgy companies not rangers. So when he says he hasnt taken a penny out of rangers he is right but has used the clubs name to pocket himelf a kings ransom.

Is it me or are a lot of fans missing the point? The whole tradition of Rangers is on the line here. We need to show the world we are honourable & proud. Pay the £9m tax bill, pay the "wee tax" bill, pay our creditors what we owe them, these are the issues any new owners need to deal with. If for the next few years we have to endure hard times on & off the park then so be it, we've had barren times before and came back...thats football...thats Rangers. As for the big tax bill, Im sure the government would rather we arrange to pay it back over a longer period than go bust and they get nothing

Just a few thoughts from an older bear who remembers the 70's and 80's when we barely won anything...

Believable6 Unbelievable2

Sensible post mate hope a lot of true supporters read this and agree with what you have said,because it is time that we did the correct thing. Lets stop kidding that this is not a problem and when you say lets pay back what we owe anypne with a brain will accept that it cannot be paid back in one lump sum,but if agreement can be reached i am convinced everone who is due money would rather have it than gamble on for example so many pence in the pound.The name of Rangers is the headline due to these debt issues but everyone if they are honest will be prepared to admit that the entire mess is down to two people David Murray and Craig Whyte as they and they alone had the final say in all transactions at this club and they should be the individuals called to account.

Muppet, employers national insurance, now 13.8% of wages, a club liability not paid. back then they were saving say 12% on every payment structured through EBT.

If the De Boers, Michael Ball, Thomas Buffel etc hadn't have been given those extra payments they would not have came to scotland......and you wouldn't have won the league/cup!

By luring those players here with promises off extra benefits your club would have made millions in payments from SFA and UEFA!

The EBT's were administered by RFC. HMRC say they didn't do it correctly and have persued RFC until the Tax Tribunal. The findings have not been released but you lot you know the score, even calculating 12%. Aye right.

To the guy who posted further down on this page regarding what or where he thinks all the money has gone.

I am not going to reply to the moneyt debate side of it, but i do take you to task blaming this on the reason we were put out of 2 european competitions.

We were put out of europe by 2 pub teams that our youth teams would have beaten. Why was this , because of supar ally,s tactics and team selections, thus costing our great club between 10 and 20 million. Oh and dont forget league and scottish cup exits causing us even more lost revenue.

Believable4 Unbelievable2

Listen son, you have not got a clue. On any other night we would have beaten these teams, we had several clear cut chance to win by 4 or 5. Ally is not responsible for missing guilt edge chances.

You are not wanted here. Your negative thinking is not required or desired. Perhaps you should look to support another team, one more suited to your calibre.

Its you who aint got a clue, we were rank rotten in all 4 european ties. I mean playing 5 at the back at ibrox against a poor Malmo team says it all.

Interestingly their accounts were posted during our feeding frenzy. 7m debt and a couple of hundred grand in the bank. But if it costs us 3.5m per month with a smaller squad what are they paying?

We don't need bailed out by anyone, we live within our means and can pay our wage bill, pay all our taxes, make payments towards our credit facilities and still turnover a small profit

Agree3 Disagree2

1. The accounts were released on monday before it came out that whyte had filed for admin. 2. Making a couple hundred grand profit doesnt mean there is only a couple hundred grand in the bank, it means there is a couple hundred grand more than there was the previous 6months. 3. Celtic have a credit facility which we use within our means and have actually reduced our debts and would be able to wipe them out completely with the sale of 1 player....not a full squad, our stadium and training facilities.

Start worrying about your own team. Your team was in the sh!t before your stupid post and are still in the sh!t after your stupid post...no amount of trying to kid yourself or anyone else that celtic have any financial problems at all is gona change that.

There is the difference: 2 men only one is a man.

Neil Lennon & Paolo Di Canio

Di Canio a Celtic legend talks of his dismay at Rangers potential plight and how true opposing fans don't celebrate in their rivals situation. Almost comparing Celtic fans to that of Roma.

Then you have Lennon: All he wants to talk about is his deep rooted bitterness. How he feels 'he' may have been cheated in his time as a player, and how he is waiting for the case result to demand titles be taken away!

How this would be achieved I'm not sure. However once again it shows the mark of this person. Bitter, angry and depressed.

Paolo Di Canio is the man here. Well done Paolo.

I wish I could be at Ibrox today but unfortunately business comes first. Today I am certain the boys will do their business and the fans that turn up in their thousands will be immense, colossal and a power against all the cr@p that surrounds us.

Give it to them today lads, I expect tears and joy. We will survive......

There is a difference between saying something people want to hear and speaking from the heart.
The problem with listening to what you want to hear (Eg Mr Craig White) is they very seldom mean what they say and make fools of the folk who trust them.
Ally McCoist - a Rangers legend - has been totally hung out to dry thanks to a man who made all the right noises and promises while performing a cheap conjuring trick behind the screen.

I honestly dont think Greig saw through him, but was willing to trust the existing boards opinion. However until proven otherwise Whyte has yet to be found out. Of course as things develop its looking more and more likely that he has done what many feared would happen. I will always give the benefit of the doubt where possible. I truly wanted this man to the the man and prove the doubters wrong. Why? because my club needed it to be that way. The smoother the better, people would not be fearing for their jobs.

For me every other club in the UK should be understanding of a clubs plight in such times and be more political, professional and dignified in their public response. Behind closed doors they can laugh and shout all they want.

IF celtic had held on to finally come top of the pile over this skeletal Gers side people would have thought more of their achievement than the stroll to the default title after the points deduction. Thus their "achievement" of "winning" this year's league title is therefore clearly devalued- FACT

Believable3 Unbelievable6

Am a rangers man and your wrong they won games they fought back 15 points and it's not their fault we got 10 point deducted FACT

Agree4 Disagree0

It's not Celtics fault rangers are a shambles. FACT, its not celtics fault rangers have cheated for last 12 years FACT, if it was the other way around then you would celebrate rangers winning the league. FACT, Celtic would have won the league without 10 point deduction cause rangers are piss poor. FACT, Celtic will won the next 4 LEAGUE TITLES. FACT,

Every title won when using EBT's is tainted , and is now haunting the club .

And therefore if your being fare the 9 in the row run was cheating - FACT?

Agree1 Disagree3

Rangers owe taxman so they are cheats FACT rangers owe other clubs so they are cheats FACT rangers blew a 9 point lead so they are s**t FACT Celtic are on a 17 game winning streak ( even if it is against weak teams) so that makes them the best team in scotland FACT so if ya wanna say that the league title is devalued because you lot got caught cheating so be it. Enjoy the third division its what you deserve. hope the decent fans out there find some relief in that I believe rangers will be back all be it in about 5 years but will be a force again. MMI2009

Glad I got so many responses. Methinks I may have touched a wee nerve. :-)

Would appreciate you post my messages in full please editor. The postscript missed off the end of my FACT was: one of the very few occasions where theuse of this is correct.

Is Celtic's achievement in winning this year's title as great 'cause Rangers are in the toilet as it otherwise would have been?- of course it isn't, and that is just a FACT. That's why the lemon has been asked the question and will be asked it again on a good few more occasions between now and May.

It's a bit like it's a FACT that if Rangers fortunes are significantly damaged for a long time into the future Celtic will also decline. They can't no decline. Anyone that genuinely can't see that isnae worth talking to. They'd argue black was white. {Ed001's Note - if you posted the full message it would help, rather than trying to act like it was edited.}

The average season ticket is £400 the average amount of season ticket holders 36,500. so thats £14,600,000 a year. Ticketus bought the seats till 2015. Say this start next season thats 3 years tickets, so thats. £43,800,000 a profit of £19,800,000 in 3 years from doing nothing. Also can ticketus now decide the prices for season tickets for the next 3 years?

Believable2 Unbelievable2

I suspect we will be in administration until the result comes round. Then HMRC will be offered a reduced payment, however there is the real danger of HMRC then pushing us into liquidation.

who was the last rangers scottish SUPERstar?
yes the man in the dugout with the world apparently on his shoulders. I reckon this guy doesn't need to do this job for the money(it cant be what we would imagine ) pure deep affection of this club and the supporters also the great memory's and friendships built over his love for rangers is what is driving him on imo.
Lets get behind the manager of rangers Ally Mcoist and give it large for the team. jammydodger

Believable8 Unbelievable3

"Rangers has always been my team. Since I was a boy I have supported Rangers and was blessed to play for the club then return as Assistant Manager. So I think I'm pretty qualified in terms of knowing the club and the fans, the players and what it means to people. I know how important it is to everybody and hopefully as manager I can help to bring the club further success."
Super Ally has my vote, many "outsiders whould have been joe the toff! long ago

Agree8 Disagree4

Ally McCoist has always spoken so well. His love of our club is evident. He has morals, dignity and professionalism oozing from his body, unlike any other Celtic manager I care to remember. He IS the man to lead us through this. It was Walter before it will Ally now. He is the face pf this club and will always be remembered for it. He should be loved for it and admired.

NOW is the time to support him all the way to the bitter end.

In Ally We Trust

Believable3 Unbelievable5

Read the article donk,its a reporter putting a reporters spin on it ,anyway if its cheating its cheating and surley a respectable club like Rangers wont need to be stripped of titles, they will hand them back when they lose the case. I dont hear many of you complaing about other parties like that clown salmond sticking their oar in(is that because he is saying somthing you like?) I do agree on one point thought this is nobodys buisiness but Rangers,the tax man and the numerous small people and buisness that will go to the wall because of the shyte night, I would like to think that the great Glasgow RAngers will pay their dues but somehow i doubt it ,honour my arse

This may be the answer we are all looking for regarding why this has happened and where the money has gone, why Jelavic was sold to Everton instead of West Ham when they offered more money, why he deliberately set out to sabotage any signing Ally wanted and why Mr Whyte never paid the Taxman.
Here goes.
As we all know future ticket sales have been sold to Ticketus for about 25 million which Craig Whyte then used as capital to takeover the club. I believe 18 million was used to clear the debt with the bank. Although Whyte cleared this debt he really only transferred it to Wavetower who i believe may now be called the Rangers Group thus making him secured creditor, when and it always was going to be when, he placed the club into administration. This move has also prevented Ticketus from being affected by the club being in administration as they now own the ticket sales for this amount over a period of a few years which would not have been the case had Whyte borrowed the money from, say a bank. Shrewd move. The reason the administrators cannot trace this money at the moment is because it was originally paid into the account of Wavetower aka the Rangers Group the parent company of the club who are not in administration. This still leaves 7 million unaccounted for although I believe this may have been transferred into the club to ensure Rangers have enough in their accounts to pay off their secured creditor namely Mr Craig Whyte.
More recently it has also come to light that the club have not paid any PAYE, VAT or National Insurance contributions since the takeover. Why I here you all ask. Well if you planned to put the club into administration and you were to be the main creditor you would hope that there was enough money in the account to cover that debt. Especially if you knew the club were to go into administration.
This brings us on to our embarrassing and shambolic dealings in the transfer market in the summer and more recently the January transfer window. Every quality player Ally wanted to sign on a bosman was offered poor terms and knocked us back. Now I know the days of Rangers signing superstars on high wages are over but I don’t believe these guys were asking for fortunes either but Mr Whyte did not want to be spending too much money for a reason. This is also why he put in embarrassing offers in for some of Allys main targets which ultimately led to us being knocked out of Europe. He deliberately sabotaged the big deals because you’ve guessed it he needed to make sure there was enough money to pay off that secured creditor. Hence the reason Jelavic was sold to Everton for 5.5 million instead off West Ham who offered significantly more. Albeit the payments were to be in stages which meant the money would not be in Rangers account at the time of Mr Whytes planned administration, and he could not have that as that secured creditor needs paying. This explains why he never attempted to help Ally get anyone in to replace Jelavic as he would rather the money was in the bank.
Hopefully that connects the dots but I am unsure if Mr Whyte is really entitled to the 18 million to which he claims is his, because from what I see the Ticketus money may have been used to pay off the debt but it was money secured from an asset of the club not the parent company or Craig Whyte.
I hope I am wrong but this exactly how it looks and if his plan comes off it looks like hes got himself a nice little lottery win for about a years work. {Ed001's Note - makes no sense, Everton are paying for Jelavic in staged payments, West Ham couldn't have paid over a longer term as UEFA's FFP ruling has a time limit on transfer fees being paid off.}

As an evertonian...he went to everton coz they were one of the clubs they owe money to that was why fee was agreed lower....rangers owe money to everyone everton just happened to be one of those clubs in for him
