I thought he went in to try and do Ganea, but Ganea got him first. Could be wrong though.

He's not an accountant but does comment on financial stuff on occasion. It's more Boss than me, to be fair. I don't have a problem with him. He's made the odd mistake, that's all.

FFS. Don't say that. It'll just get him more big-headed. :fish:

I'd love to go to the conference but don't think I can make it unfortunately.

My comments are in bold

Disagree with that, but it was never going to happen anyway.

Donald Muir, Lloyds TSB's man on the Rangers board, has to be re-elected at the AGM. This is a chance for the bears to show the bank our feelings on their interference if they were to vote against Muir's re-election. Murray's block votes will ensure that he will be re-elected, but it will be more poor PR for Lloyds if Muir has to rely on that. Use your votes wisely, shareholders.

Boss can't resist his wee dig at Brock Stoker.

Perhaps it's all the years of mistrust but I can't help but look at these comments with a degree of cynicism. Are these comments just to help him through a potentially tricky AGM, and something different may happen in the January transfer window? We'll see.

Another good statement by Bain.

Result.

It was never an option. If it is ever going to happen then this meeting would be a fait accompli. Until then they will come out unanimously against it.

Definitely not but it could be in the new year. We may not have received it yet.

When does CL money get paid?

* Turnover of �£39.7m (2008 - �£64.5m), a decrease of �£24.8m * Net operating expenses decreased by �£8.6m to �£48.2m (2008 - �£56.8m) * Gain on disposal of player registrations �£6.2m (2008 - �£7.7m) * Loss for the year of �£12.7m (2008 - profit of �£7.2m) * Additions to player registrations of �£11.8m (2008 - �£18.0m) * Net debt of �£31.1m (2008 - �£21.6m) Not a million miles away from what I expected.

Billionaire in plan to buy out Rangersâ�� �£30m debt

Co-incidence that it's hit on the same day that the results are out? -
If he was fit enough to play then why wasn't he on the bench? I'm sure he will have a big part to play, but that doesn't mean we can't resent him when he makes it clear how low Rangers are in his priorities. It wouldn't have been so bad if there hadn't been the previous issue with him returning late from teh last international and failing to notify the management.

That's partly why I didn't take it too seriously. I presume that any new owner would want to own all the environs around Ibrox including Edmiston House, but I don't expect RHL to move out any time soon. The rumour came from the Members, but I was hearing it third hand from someone, so there have been more to it that wasn't passed onto me. -
Sorry, I wasn't clear enough in what I was trying to say. If the club repeats its inaction and fails to take adequate precautions to prevent the mistreatment of fans then trouble could happen again. So McCoist should not have said anything as he did not have the knowledge on what he was talking about? Bain certainly seemed to know that there was inadequate arrangements more than 48 hours previously so McCoist should also have known that. Perhaps it's just hearsay, but I trust TannochsideBear and don't have any doubt that his version of events is 100% true.

I heard rumours about this in Ibrox on Saturday, but didn't take them too seriously. It is alleged that Murray Park and Edmiston House are sticking points on the deal if it's the same rumour. -
I'm certainly not siding with them. However the club and management have not helped the situation and to just ignore that fact will result in an increased chance of this happening again, and it's also wrong not to criticise management when they give misleading statements. Just because you criticise one party doesn't mean that you are absolving everyone else.
-
I don't believe McCoist should resign over it, and I don't think an apology would particularly help, but to continue to give the impression that the fans were not in any way provoked as he did is extremely misleading and could in itself lhelp in increasing the punishment of the club. Yes, we need the fans to behave, but we also need the club to follow up on arrangements made. It's just not good enough to make arrangements and on the day not to ensure that they are followed through and to just sit back and enjoy the corporate entertaining that your hosts are putting on while the support are getting beaten and gassed. McCoist made it clear he thought that the club was in no way to blame which is wrong.

Thanks for that insightful input to an important debate. :box:

The McCoist interview certainly annoyed me. He made absolutely no reference to the saftey of the support, and seemed not to care about the fact that a fan was being assaulted, while praising the great jobs that Kenny Scott and the Rangers security staff were doing. Well Ally, if they were doing such a great job there would be procedures in place to ensure that our support were being properly treated. The fact that they weren't resulted in the trouble, and Kenny Scott and the club as a whole have to take a large part of the blame for what happened last week. There are mindless idiots in our support, but abdicating responsibility over procedures to keep them under control has resulted in this problem, and the club themselves are as culpable as these idiots, and McCoist's simplistic views also damage the club.
