Interesting developments fellow fans, but don't let the heart rule the head. I am now of an age that I can sit back and reflect, and not jump in.
My take, for what it's worth? Simple, Ed001 hit it on the head on the 22nd. Oct. by using one term regarding the King offer----- ludicrous. Any financially astute person can see it does not hold water. Look at what he is asking for and you will see it as a joke.
Time to have open mind on the alternatives and accept our situation.
The Kennedy/ Ashley alliance would not be too bad, with Mr Letham involved, on the fans behalf sounds good to me.

Voldermort pops up with pr spin. the majority want king (a CONVICTED TAX evader)but hey ho he's got cash wrong!!!!! Surely somewhere there is an honest buissnessm without a dark dodgy past, or is it we accept leaches spivs etc??3years&the money pit is heading for financial meltdown. what will the SFA's take on Ashley if he calls the shots using a puppet board he controls, whilst owning Newcastle?it's the never ending story of deja vu groundhog day over&fookin over!!!!!!!!

The first paper to break news on Kennedy, reckons it is an offer to stop Ashley controlling everything, not an alliance.

Cuillin72, The alliance is just my thinking, not what is on the agenda. The most important fact is the offer was a joke and don't be deluded by King's rhetoric.

Why don't us fans just buy the rangers black and red shirt and scarf from now on. ditch home and away tops until our great club is back in safe hands.

Billyb,

I am not deluded about anything. I don't believe that the puppet masters will accept anything that will spoil their wee money tree. It will lead to another admin, even then I would not hold out much hope of Rangers minded groups even having a sniff of getting control. Green is still in control, but who is pulling his strings from even higher up?

In my opinion, Admin2 is now inevitable. MA providing a loan is only a stop gap; it will be secured against property and the property will be his choice as he will control the board. Regardless what anyone thinks MA is not going to provide unlimited, interest-free loans unless, and until, the club is trimmed down to a self-sustaining level. Only then will it be allowed to grow.

With MA men in control of theboard, I think it is going to be an unhappy Christmas as they are proper businessmen. Players are going to go, prospects of promotion will diminish but the club will survive (assuming the fans keep on feeding it), as a shadow of its former self.

Cuillin, I did not point the finger with my comment re delusion, I just feel that King is playing with the emotions of us, the fans. Have no doubts about it, he has been fighting an uphill battle to gain control, but his offer was poor.
He did not want to give the 'thieves' any cash and at the end of the day who could blame him.
Re us going forward, I now feel we must blow the final whistle and cut our personal losses.
Have no doubts, what was started after murray sold us out has only one ending and we are the losers.

Brian Kennedy now back on the scene with an offer to the board, this saga has more twist and turns than a F1 circuit. I honestly wish I would wake up one day and either find out this has all been a bad dream or someone has taken over who has the clubs interest at heart rather than trying to line their own pockets and rip off the fans in the process. We have been treated badly over the last few years when all we want to do is support our team. Due to work commitments I gave up my season ticket around 3 years ago which I had since I was 15 and even though I couldn't go I pledged to buy a season ticket if dave king and his consortium gained control. I for 1 will not be back until the easdales are gone along with Ashley, I won't purchase anything to do with rangers as no money seems to go back into the club but line other peoples pockets.

how is it that EVERYONE can see that mcleod and law are our two best midfielders and should be played there to form a partnership - except for mr mccoist - who thinks best to play them out of position - seriously - ally, you don't have much of a clue.

I think black is playing better than law at the moment mate so I've got to disagree with you

Apart from scoring a few goals, Law has been woeful for quite some time. If you watch him off the ball he's always running about marking nobody. Then when a pass gets made he gets caught ball watching and is at least 15 feet away from the opposition player. I'm not a massive black fan either but i would pair him with McLeod in the middle.
