It's the 2nd weekend of the October school break where I live. Lots of families will be away for a short holiday I imagine.

The same here in Renfrewshire - we just got back from Amsterdam but I know that work colleagues of mine are abroad for the full week, so must be the same with many others.

What Sky TV thinks of World Record Holders - Rangers

Can't see it happening but who knows!!!

However, 'if' ... and it's a big 'if' the FA/BPL/CL or whoever decided to let us in, we still need the approval of the SFA to transfer, according to the above story.

Is it possible that getting SFA permission may not be too much of a hurdle, if it's still run by the **** cabal?

They agree for us and the tims to leave for England, providing that (a) we give the SFA a percentage of our TV revenue and (b) we retain (youth or reserve) teams in Scotland?

Made up story. Even the Scum are struggling with numbers, not to mention the Sheep giving hundreds of free ST's to children. Also Kilmarnock phoning around friends and family in an act of desperation.

Yep, we'll see in a few months how booming it really is.

Doesn't seem that long ago that I was at the 25th anniversary dinner which was up at Viccies. A great night. How time flies.

Although I was at the game in Barcelona in 1972, I've never been to any of the anniversary dinners since then.

Maybe I should go to this one!

I'd posted the two photos below, on FF way back in 2005 but

then accidentally deleted them and forgot all about them until a poster on here reminded me about them.

They're taken from the book, 'Rangers Football Legends' compiled by Stuart Marshall (1999).

The first photo is taken at Southend Kintyre (near Campbeltown) in June 1912and the second photo is the same team ready for action.

Enjoy:

I'm not believing this Billy Davies rumour for one minute.

I for one wouldn't want Davies as our manager - I don't rate him as a football manager + his company stinks.

Anyone who cavorts naked with the likes of Tommy Sheridan in a swingers club shouldn't be anywhere near our club

as a supporter let alone manager

If Jelavic "has lost interest in the SPL" then, IMO, we should sell him for the 8 million. I know that it is tough to let your best striker leave, especially in the last day of the window but if he cant be bothered with the SPL then how do we know we will see decent performances from him ? In fact, his performances this season would actually give credence to the Sun's report...

Can't argue with that, although I'd try and get a bit more than the the �£8m (if that offer is correct) from Leicester or whoever.

However as you stated, we don't really have the time to spend it, unless Rangers have planned for this scenario and have a

replacement(s) in position.

The cynic in me thinks that �£8m+ in the bank in exchange for a loan deal or Bosman would suit Mr Whyte very much.

Maybe he's not as good as he (or many of us) thought he was.

You've noticed.:-))))

Seriously though, I know you think the same as me that Jelavic could very well be off.

I said on Sunday - as did many others - that his body language implied he didn't want to be here anymore.

He came for Champions League football - he was honest when he joined and stated that he was using us as a stepping stone to the Premiership.

We couldn't give him CL football and even if he does go the the English Championship, it's a much better and more competitive league than ours.

In saying that - once you leave The Rangers, it's usually downhill all the way

STV announced that the bids were for Davis. However; I bow to my friend's greater knowledge of thse matters and I apologise if I have erroneously misled anyone.

You've not had your medicine today

It's Travis that deserves the recognition, but I suppose I had better offer congrats to Scott. The folks in Forfar, at the Guide Dog Training School will be well chuffed.

 

I hope Travis is presented at Buck' Palace, give him an opportunity to take a chunk or two out of a corgi?

I think we'll find out in early July if Trav has also got himself an award.

Well done mate - you are one person who certainly deserves that honour :smile:

So, big man, back tae the Poofter's Loyal, then? How will this affect your recently taken vow of abstinence? Or is it a case of abstinence makes the heart grow fonder? :-)))

How does that old song go again?

I left my pint in San Francisco

To be held in San Francisco.

I love that city :grin:

What a great few days it's been.

The devil's disciple, Osama, and the devil's eleven getting their just deserves

I don't believe for one minute that Rangers fans are doing this Frank. I think this is part of their wider campaign against us. It's a concentrated effort to try to make us look bad at every opportunity. When they don't have an opportunity they create one and that's what this crap is IMO.

That is my line of thinking as well.

How come none of these 'bombers' have been traced as yet?

Even though in the past, aeroplanes have been blown into smithereens, their bombers have been identified from their

'explosive fingerprints'.

Yet no suspects have apparently been identified for targetting TLB etc.

However, paraphrasing big DJ.

I don't know a lot about bombs, but I know I don't like them - although perhaps I could make a couple of exceptions

IF Frankies source is spot on and we have a new owner 2moro am going for 0-3 to the Champions

 

Naisy 2 and Jelavic 1.

 

2-0 Killie on Wednesday !

You weren't too far away tonight - let's hope you're not too far away tomorrow night with that prediction

Can't argue with that

Can everyone please remember this guy already has �£20 million invested , which Murray is about to flush down the pan , there was no way that he was going to go quietly , himself ,AJ and Martin Bain are the three directors behind this plan .

 

Administration is not an option .

Do we know how much King's �£20m would have been worth if the Whyte deal went ahead?

Welcome Stuart and Gomacgers (and good work on the NBM stuff GMG!)

Thanks Bluedell (hard to believe that NBM stuff was over 6 years ago)

I only heard part of it.

Nigel Spackman was telling of his memories while a Rangers player.

Nothing bad as it was all light-hearted and jokey stuff.

Talking about how smartly dressed the Rangers players had to be, and joking about

the lack of green (apart from the grass) at Ibrox.

Spackman said that if any player had ever worn green (trimmed) boots back then,

then Durranty would have thrown them out the window - the boots I think he meant

Welcome mate.

 

First game 1965, my god and you can use a computer?

Aye, it's a wee bit different from the auld days but I'm a quick learner

Geez a lift mister

Hymn book and Bibles at the ready for for next Sunday

Thank you
