    Marvellous. Now it turns into Jarndyce versus Jarndyce with the lawyers taking turns on the hind tit of the Rangers cash cow. Let's hope there is a speedy resolution... Billy Davis might be a decent shout but in all seriousness what sane person who would sign up to become embroiled in this mess?

    So build his gallows, build them high...

    That's what I was thinking. What exactly was the purpose of Somers statement at this time? Did the arrests somehow up the ante in some way causing the incumbents to seek to hasten their exit and now they are attempting to smoke Kings consortium out to get a deal done? Was it an attempted charm offensive to entice fans into MA's corner? in which case they should have used someone with charm to deliver the message. Do they simply think they can simply discredit King and fans will return to Ibrox in droves? Or is this just a load of macho bollocks between the MA gang and the King gang? A sort of don't mess with the messer cause the messer's gonna mess with you scenario. Like most my head is melted with all this crap...

    A lot of guys do their badges here in Belfast at an IFA course at Stranmillis College where I happen to do some contracting work. I saw Barry Ferguson there doing his badges in the past year or two and Neil Lennon a few years back also. The IFA's brochure for the Uefa 'A' licence states: Course content, tasks and assessments are based upon the following competencies: • Football knowledge • Management • Use of technology • Psychology • Personal presentation and media skills I would expect the Uefa Pro Licence just adds to those competencies but at the end of the day you can either coach or you can't. In my opinion having a vast knowledge of a subject doesn't necessarily make a person a great teacher or leader.

    I don't think the right to be forgotten rule was in place until May 2014 after the González case in Spain. The people we are talking about just seem to be rather adept at staying under the radar until they want to be seen.

    I wasn't trying to start a row You are correct of course we shouldn't get carried away. My point is simply that staying silent is not necessarily enough to let them walk. It is just my personal opinion that these arrests are a significant development in the process of finding out what happened in this debacle...

    Your premise seems to assume that the police had no evidence before going to the trouble of waking these dudes from their slumber at 6:30 in the morning. I wouldn't be so sure. Time will tell of course.

    AlisonRobbie: 4 men detained in connection with acquisition of #Rangers in 2011 have now been arrested & are in police custody.
  9. MeAndMyWeePalJoe
    You've drawn a similar conclusion to me.

    http://www.londonstockexchange.com/exchange/news/market-news/market-news-detail/12135507.html In the name of George Alexander Taylor who seems to be a Morgan Stanley employee. I would assume this purchase is being made on behalf of a Morgan Stanley customer what do our financial experts think? Is this likely to be something significant?

    I suspect he has done the arithmetic and fled the scene. It looks something like this: (useful idiot - useful) = idiot

    Surely a photoshopper would have gone with "whack the board" ... #sopranosloyal :devil:

    Like most I remember that day vividly, sitting here in Lisburn, stunned in front of our TV set. The No Surrender mantra was chanted by many NI civilians as we got up for work next day, sick to the stomach but continued to work in Police stations and Army bases despite the threat of being murdered for doing so. Sadly Enniskillen was, for my generation, the latest in a long line of horrific terrorist attacks up to that point including the Claudy Massacre, Bloody Friday, the Kings Mills Massacre, La Mon House and Darkley. The murder of Lord Mountbatten in 1979 is also lodged in my memory along with the death of 4 soldiers in the Lisburn 'Fun Run' bombing of 1988. Such trauma and adversity seemed to strengthened our resolve. Forgive me if I appear glib but I think a similar spirit is visible amongst the Rangers support. We appear to be under attack from every direction, and despite our differences the cry is no surrender! I know D'Art served in the forces and his post stems from a deep understanding of the subject. Today thanks to people like him I can bimble around Northern Ireland in relative safety, in an imperfect peace but a peace none the less. All together now... No Surrender!

    That quote is from a song by Dublin Band, Stepaside, that I used to travel to see every week back in the early '80s and it sprang to mind whilst reading that piece. It sounds as though the Dave King v SARS story could become a major movie without a doubt. The intrigue of a John le Carré novel combined with the financial propriety of Jarndyce v Jarndyce in the court of Chancery. The article seems to suggest that there was ultimately no winner, just a war weary truce. The encouragement I take from this piece is that Dave King seems to have all the nous required to deal with the chicanery that the current board/major shareholders can muster. Thanks for posting.

    Well done GS. Barca play anti-football at a time the papers talk of the Messi Tax Case! I think your Peralta/Temps permutation would definitely be worth a look but either way we should make this final even if Ally plays me at RB....

    Off topic but here is a photo of famous a gangster family.

    Too far?

    And if I am correct the Muhammad referred to in that famous saying was a false prophet who commanded the mountain to come to him as proof of his bona fides. When the mountain did not come he decided to spin it with the quote you mentioned. Interesting analogy.

    Also interesting that the meeting is on Dave King's turf...

    Alasdair Lamont @BBCAlLamont Craig Mather and Brian Stockbridge have been meeting Dave King in South Africa re future of Rangers. More to come soon. Well now... What can this mean?
