  1. Yep. We grind the creativity out of good players until they become the drones we see now. It's coaching in reverse. I've never been a fan of Director of Football roles but I really think we need to go down that route now with a Head Coach working day to day with the players and a "name" upstairs guiding the recruitment and reporting his dept's progress to the Board. None of these people should be McCoist, Durrant or McDowall.
  2. I disagree on Wallace. He's the one player (McLeod) aside who's on a different level in terms of awareness and footballing intelligence. In a side where he could count on somebody covering him and with a bit of movement ahead of him you'd see the best of him. A side like Hearts in fact....
  3. Working the system is one thing, these guys (allegedly:flute:) have planned and executed a criminal conspiracy on a massive scale and complexity.
  4. Thieving, conniving, morally bankrupt, greedy fucking scumbags.
  5. The company number SC175364 which is trading as Scottish Professional Football League (SPFL) is the same so it is just a name change and membership extension. I stand corrected. There is hope of seeing Regan and Doncaster facing an enquiry yet!
  6. Could be a number of things but I'd guess that it HMRC have a policy of having court proceedings held in the constituent area of the other party (RFC) . It does leave the door open for conspiracy theories though.
  7. Jack Irvine was one of the first people on the planet to use what's now callled "the right to be forgotten rule" on Google and other search providers. NO records of his disbarring as a company director, No records of his many previous failed acquisitions and NO record of his lack of real wealth. Wee Jack has earned his money.
  8. I have a feeling that Greenco's actions were just reprehensible rather than criminal. The real crime was committed by Whyte and those who brought about the circumstances of him being there.
  9. That would be an improvement on the current situation in my view. Not saying much for them I know.
  10. "Dear Burton Press Office, I was disgusted to see that your stores are selling, today, a T-Shirt using a very famous image of "The Gallant Pioneers" the founding fathers of Rangers Football Club modified with images of skulls and a general theme of death. You may or may not be aware of a narrative, promoted by bitter and twisted rival fans that describes my football club as "dead" and "extinct" despite the overwhelming weight of evidence and rulings in the courts and by the footballing authorities around the world to the contrary. As a Rangers fan of many years, I find this kind of behavior abhorrent and offensive. I wonder if your design teams would feel comfortable using an image of the Manchester United team from 1958, around the time of the Munich Disaster? Would a T-Shirt with an image of Liverpool fans in skeletal form be acceptable given the 96 of them who perished at Hillsborough? I'm sure these ideas would be rejected and quite rightly so. Why then is it acceptable for you to use an image of Rangers players, given the background and narrative I've described? I hope that now this oversight has been pointed out to you, that these T-Shirts and anything else using the image of The Gallant Pioneers will be removed from your stores and inventory with immediate effect. I was a customer of Burton and many other Arcadia Group retailers but I must now reconsider where I spend my money from this point on. Yours Sincerely ***** ****"
  11. I've written to Mike Ashley to notify him of our little event and ask him if he would like to join us and share a pint with the fans. He politely declined but did offer to buy the naming rights to the event for a £1. I said we'd consider it for £500 and 18 Sports Direct Mugs.
  12. If nothing else, this confirms all of our suspicions that the Fans Board is just a shill for the actual board. It's time all the fans organisations got together and discussed the real reasons that they have been in almost constant opposition to each other. Only then can they move on immune to the poison dwarf's influence.
  13. It was either the Easedales or James Mortimer. Green/Laxey/BPH recruited them because of a misguided and naive view that there should be a Scottish "front man" or front men as it has transpired. That's how GreenCo think.
  14. Between the £50m from BPH and Laxey, the £20m from the Easedales and now Ashley's £10m we'll be in a position to compete with Hamilton Accies in no time.
  15. The first time "intellectual" and "Easedale" has been used in the same sentence?
  16. Much as I agree with most of what you've said I suspect that the numbers would swell on the same curve as our on field progress did. I don't expect the singular "groundbreaking " event to happen so much as a series of minor tectonic events but then again I don't think anybody or any group who've courted ownership of the club had the ambition or capacity to initiate the kind of groundbreaking change we would like to see. A more holistic view of Scottish Football and it's decline has to acknowledge the feckless stewardship of the SPL/SPFL and SFA who've allowed it's stock and profile to become so badly diminished as to be irrelevant. If Ashley has a grand plan to develop Sports Direct via development of a Scottish Football club I'd suggest he starts with the clowns running the game.
  17. If I've learned anything throughout this never-ending saga it's that we, the fans are simply along for the ride and this weeks events, no matter how unpalatable, are just how it is and how it's going to be. We might as well get used to it. All the RangersFirst / BuyRangers money may as well be given back to the fans as well as the RFFF. Fan ownership as a viable strategy is over, for the short to medium term anyway. #defeatistbear
  18. I really thought that we'd gotten past the "Dave King better put his money where his mouth is" stuff. It's obvious to me that he's facing a mammoth task to dislodge the parasitic shareholders and their puppet board let alone progress against a backdrop of PR, spin and planted stories from useful journalistic idiots. It's a marathon, not a sprint.
