    I wouldn't suspend him just yet. I think the club needs to be very careful how it approaches this one. We don't want to be stuck paying a suspended player indefinitely and it wouldn't be wise to pre-emptiviely carry out our own investigation and sack him before the outcome of the SFA disciplinary proceedings. I'd suggest the club should issue a statement acknowledging the accusations and say that it will co-operate fully with the SFA to investigate the matter. No more, no less.

    Fixed that for you

    I don't think there are many media outlets these days which you could call a 'friend' of the club tbh. Some of them are more overrun than others, but they're mostly all a little off balance right now if you know what I mean. Of course, the other side to it is that I don't like to see the club stirring up paranoia amongst the support on this subject. I'm not sure if JT's just shit stirring or trying to keep himself in a job by trying to convince fans that 'his' media channel is the only one to be trusted.

    At the same time though, the statement also has a go at Jack Irvine who as we know has re-emerged as PR guru for the Easedales who clearly seem to be backing Green ...for now at least. It seems to be having a go at everyone basically who is discussing the club in terms that don't suit big JT. I think that's probably the only agenda at play here.

    He did manage to con Ticketus into clearing the bank debt though. Somehow I don't think the fans would have ended up being thankful to SDM even if he had sold us the club instead of CW. Like you say though, that's another story.

    If both sides backed the proposal and thus it had no influence on proceedings then I wouldn't see any harm in it. Otherwise, it could be disruptive. With the best interests of the club in mind I think the timing for putting this forward could be better.

    I think it's a good idea BH and one which I would hope could be pursued. I don't however think it's relevant to the purpose of the EGM as I don't think it would lead to proper governance of the club and certainly don't agree with Arnold that it should be used to sway votes at the EGM or indeed to distract from the issues at hand.

    I would assume the club stopped paying the rent in May and another tenant moved in.

    That won't be much help to Argyriou's chances of finding a new club. Hopefully not too serious a knock.

    Each player can be used up to 3 times as a trialist in the league so both Daly and Law can play another 2 league games between now and Sept 1st. The Ramsdens trialist quota is separate and iirc we can't play any trialists in the next round.

    Pesonally I think he's just made up that figure to try and justify his claim for £3.4m. The five year deal with Puma and 1 year Blackthorn deal were reportedly much lower value than the club would normally be able to command from it's two main sponsors. The same would apply to Sports Direct who are giving us less than half of what JJB were, albeit we do supposedly have freedom to boost merchandising income beyond that sum than before. I can't recall any other significant commercial activity being boasted. Maybe he's counting the mythical deals with Adidas and Dallas Cowboys.

    I think 'happy to praise' is a bit of an exaggeration. I think ater a troubled start to their relationship they put their differences aside and Ally gave Green the benefit of the doubt just as Walter obviously did. I don't think they've ever been on friendly terms though.
  13. UCF2008
    It was in direct opposition to the message our chairmen was giving us. Ally wasn't hostile. He was deadly serious and his words packed some punch. Considering who they were aimed at, I can see how you might think they were hostile though.

    ....Like setting off some claymores for a diversion.

    I reckon McColl probably would be willing to front up a large chunk of the required funding at least on the basis of a loan, but I agree with BH. He doesn't want a position of power at the club. He doesn't want to be the owner of Rangers with the support looking to him as their sugar daddy. He just wants the club to be in safe hands.
  16. UCF2008
    I wouldn't say Green's return has been insignificant though. Would you?
  17. UCF2008
    Yes, I think so.
  18. UCF2008
    Of course we have standards. We have very high standards of conduct, but much the same as Walter wasn't out of line when he insisted the bank were running the show, I don't think Ally was out of line for giving an honest response to Greens comments when asked to do so.

    I care about on field issues more than anything. What I don't do is plaster my opinion of them all over every other thread that has nothing to do with on field issues while bashing others for discussing the thread topic.
  20. UCF2008
    How exactly would you define what's appropriate for 'someone in Ally's position' right now?
  21. UCF2008
    It wasn't a deflection at all. It was an honest answer directly to a question. It could be argued that he could have refused to answer the question, but I don'r see any disgrace in what he said. It's not enough for Green to go only to hide in the shadows pulling strings. The Green / Ahmad influence needs to be completely removed. As McCoist said last season and others followed suit - the club needs cleansed.

    I don't expect you'll need to go anywhere. From day one Greenco have known they need the fans on side. Right now at this moment I'd say it's safe to assume a significant majority aren't and won't be until the required changes are made. Green should really have known better than to come back.
  24. UCF2008
    There are bigger issues at play right now and yet you seem intent on Ally bashing. You've made your point ...Several times tonight alone. Is that not enough for you?

    We needed to dig into the IPO money to cover operating costs because the men who took us over and flogged off significant shareholdings for peanuts pre IPO didn't have a proper business plan and took out a LOT more money than they put in. If the IPO had failed we would have been back in administration.
