  1. Don't see this posted anywhere. The club are selling a special tee shirt for the Celtc LC SF, how pathetic is this?
  2. I'll be very surprised if the stadium is any where near full for this game.
  3. That's my point, if we sell 100,000 @ £50 = £5M. Will he spend money to get us into Champions League as per original post newspaper report? He would have to spend a lot more than £5M to get us into CL.
  4. P Aye but. How does he get 100,000 fans to buy strips if he has not invested in the club first, got us into Champions League etc.? The way I see it very few will purchase without seeing improvement on the playing side first. He would have to speculate to accumulate, but will he? Has he at Newsacatle?
  5. He would require to invest heavily in players and management team to get us into Champions League, we are light years away from that at moment. How does the "Rangers Brand" help him sell anything but Rangers merchandise ? We are not a big player in Europe as far as seling strips are we? Any business guys explain this to us lesser mortals?
  6. @bbcjimspence: Hearing that with Mcoist meeting the board on Wednesday he may be prepared to settle for around 400K compensation and leave then.
  7. Fully agree, we should have done that when Wattie left not give the job to someone because their there.
  8. Strange times indeed. I retweeted one of your tweets earlier today.
  9. M You have run quotes from different posters into one diatribe. McCoist is playing games. Unless he is completely deluded and actually thinks he is a decent manager and can improve things. The worst manager in our history and a legend as a player. A millionaire and Rangers fan, if he had any decency he would go now. Rant over.
  10. Certainly would be interesting.
  11. Smith was in an entirely different position to what McCoist is playing at now. Even if your views on Smith are correct it does not make his comments on McCoist wrong. I thought that Smith was the wrong man for the job. He is too weak to deal with hard headed business people, even the numpties at the SFA were too much for him. A management qualification does not mean your'e a good manager.
  12. Reading between the lines I believe Smith is saying that McCoist is a self serving parasite.
  13. More crap from a former player. He was feeling the strain due to his fathers cancer so he moved down south!
  14. Being reported that the board and legal team will meet with McCoist and his legal team on Wednesday. Could be out before agm? Billy Davis anyone? From The Mail on Sunday.
  15. Mate emailed me this, its from Ibrox Noise. Hope its ok to post on here. Ally McCoist, Master Manipulator News broke yesterday in the mid-afternoon of Ally McCoist’s resignation. Immediate responses from fans were generally of the praiseworthy kind, in the sense that McCoist had appeared to know finally the game was up and had walked away without the ransom of a severance package. I criticised his apparent refusal to do this in a previous blog, comparing it with Paul Le Guen’s willingness to do the right thing and waive his £2M pay-off having been fired by Sir David Murray. Consequently, the news he had quit, therefore waiving the fee, brought out a huge deal of praise from myself and other fans, proving once and for all that Ally does care about the Club above all else. Only…the rest of the day proved that this was all a great big media stunt. Ally McCoist, master manipulator of the fans, of the press and of those in the sport itself, once again had played a blinder. In fact, his sleight of hand even managed to get fans’ ire off his back, and onto the players. Knowing full well this news would completely destabilise preparation going into the visit to Palmerston, McCoist’s Rangers were miserable and fully deserving of the defeat. Only this time, instead of complaining about McCulloch in defence, or McGregor at RB, or Mohsni starting again, or the useless Shiels starting at all, or Daly up front, or Foster at LB, all of which were McCoist decisions, fans instead solely blamed the players. Sure, they are the ones who go out there and play, but who is the guy who is putting the square pegs in the round holes, and reserving special holes for his favourite pegs? The same man who has managed to swindle his way into playing the victim while he sits there on the highest wage of anyone at Ibrox, mismanaging the team week after week. Because, of course, McCoist has not resigned. He has handed in a year’s notice, meaning Rangers’ board has five options: 1: Pay him off a severance package of around £400,000 – which it cannot afford to do. 2: Pay him off an ‘undisclosed’ settlement to his satisfaction, which will be similar in value to the above. 3: Pay off his entire 12 month wage now - £850,000. Impossible to do. 4: Put him on gardening leave, which will cost the remainder of his current deal – around £550,000. 5: Just let him get on with it. None of these are good options for anyone other than McCoist – he still gets his money no matter what, and ultimately he either stays in the job, haplessly bumbling from one calamity to the next while being paid a near cool million pounds for it, or he is paid off quick – and he knows the board does not have the money to do the latter. Meanwhile he is now Super Ally again, with the blame firmly at the foot of the players. Players who, in the past two weeks, have been canvassing support for him and had been castigated by fans for it: Jon Daly; regaling us with the tale of how McCoist attended his father’s funeral. Darren McGregor; telling us McCoist gave him the chance to play for Rangers and of his gratefulness for this opportunity. Nicky Law; blaming his fellow players and removing all responsibility from Ally. And McCoist, post-match once again laid every inch of blame on those players as well. The guy playing Mohsni, Shiels, Daly, and McCulloch, Foster and McGregor out of position is now the hero, the victim, the one who is the innocent in all this. Did the players produce yesterday night? No, they did not. But given the titanic upset to the preparation, did we expect a glorious night of football – did we expect Ally to have organised his troops impeccably? No. That Rangers lost is no surprise, and that McCoist is now blameless in some eyes is remarkable testament to his canny ability to play people against each other and make others apportion blame to everyone other than him. His skill in manipulation is outstanding, and once again McCoist has pulled the wool over everyone’s eyes and holds all the cards.
  16. BBC now reporting that board will reject his resignation. If so please do the right thing for everybody's sake Ally, just go.
  17. Now being reported that club statement is being watered down after DU denied using 2 year argument.
  18. Here we go again another Billionaire, right enough it is the Sun.
  19. I saw that the RST were against the protest. Think it's one of these internet non stories.
  20. But he is a "legend", he knows the perilous financial state the club is in, he is a millionaire, he is a Rangers fan. Naw you're right, he going to bleed us as much as the ****s.
  21. Reading on Twitter and other forum that a 9th minute anti Ally protest has been planned. Lots of discussion for and aginst, what I can't find is who is organising it? Any ideas or is it a non event?
  22. Wish I had not come back on to GERSNET tonight after reading that. What can you say about the bullshit our manager continually comes out with that has not been said before?
