I'd think Spain would be a better prospect for the lad anyway

I don't think it's possible for the majority of the support to be with you on anything as your permanently contrarian stance means you would choose the opposite of the majority.

 

A permanent juxtaposition.

 

Heigh-Ho it takes all kinds...

Interesting contribution...

We've done the debate to death, I do think the majority of the support are with me on this one though. Rhys McCabe's reception at Sheffield Wednesday a case in point.

No one in their right mind would have joined greens con to enrich him and whyte

You're very naïve if you seriously think that was in their minds rather than their own greed and selfishness.

Bizarre. I'd have never accepted them ruining their careers to play for us in lower divisions. Was a golden chance for us to blood some youth which we never took.

It was never about expecting them to remain in the scottish lower leagues, as has been said many times

The betrayal of those players was way beyond the usual type of betrayal.

If they came back I'd never accept them whatever they did on the pitch

First of all Naismith would need to come clean & tell us who it was who was behind the 'I dont want to play for Sevco' nonsense at THAT press conference

Were Wishart's players union's legal mob Bridge Litigation involved ?

FWIW I dont think theres anything left in accusing these players as money-grabbers after what was to emerge about McCoist's remuneration and contractual details

Even if you believe the players were right to walk out (I certainly still don't) I'm stunned any Rangers fan could forgive that press conference so easily

That rat coming back really would test my limits

Not when they're more expensive than going game by game.

The Hearts game may get close to a sell out but the other three will remain a similar level to the last three in my opinion.

Can't see these going that well

Malaga all the way

Lads holiday?

Nobody is saying only give them two weeks, there's a massive difference between questioning and saying everything should be done yesterday.

If he wants to buy a ticket like everyone else, he's welcome back.

No you just disappeared when they were in charge now your all full of standards all of a sudden.

You were the biggest cheerleader of the 120 day review.

Yes and that turned out to be a mistake, I think it was properly in intended by Wallace but he had too many problems with other board members. In saying that I mainly felt it was harsh for people to be calling for Wallace to leave and I'm not calling for anyone to leave.

Llambias and Leach technically only were in position for a matter of weeks but you never got me calling for them to get more time, I have learned some lessons.

I absolutely want the board of the club I've supported from childhood and had a season book for over 10 years with to fail at one of the most critical junctures in our history, despite that if they do fail it could be the end for us.

That tripe really takes the biscuit even for the online world

Does anyone else get the feeling that STB just can't help wishing for things to go wrong for the new board.

 

His feeble efforts to conceal this are so thinly veiled they are really quite pathetic.

That's utter nonsense and frankly makes a mockery of the much talked about idea that we need to hold all regimes to account in future.

I've even said in this very thread I don't have an issue with the loan

Not atall but I think if you look at Ashley, his businesses, his modus operandi, and the behaviour of Llambias and the onerous contract I think criticism of any Ashley move is warranted.

 

The new board are in only 2 weeks and they have already dealt positively with some major issues ....1) Interim Manager 2) unfortunate Chris Graham incident 3) Easdale, Llambias etc....

 

Any monies to be raised and spent needs careful planning. We are a huge club in the second tier of a backward football nation with considerable financial chalenges.

 

For me getting back to thetop of Scottish football is not enough, I want European success or a modicum of it. Under Ashley we could well of become a spent force for ever indebted to lease-back to an offshore vulture fund after he had liquidated our assets.

I don't disagree with most of that apart from I have a few early grumbles about the new board. That doesn't mean I'm calling for their heads by any means but scrutiny from day one won't do anyone any harm.

Comedy gold.

 

 

The same people who refused point blank to hold the previous ****s to even minimal standards of common decency are now gunning for the new board in ever thread.

 

It's utterly transparent .

 

Last week it was dogs abuse for taking 5 days to appoint a new manager.

Utter bullshit driven by sour grapes is never allowed.

Well you know it can't be sour grapes from me since I wanted the previous board removed

Never welcome back, ever

No,but the carnage that the last board created has made it an incredibly difficult situation to resolve for the new board!,so much so it may take weeks to sort out the mess they left behind!. I'm happy to give them time as they will do all they can for the benefit of Rangers!,but then you know that already!.

You're not going to get me defending the last board or saying that everything should be sorted with the wave of a magic wand, but I don't think mocking people showing scepticism and concerns about the people we have now is particularly fair.

Can't believe people are complaining about the new board already ....

So early complaints are only allowed when it's people appointed by Ashley then?

Patience isn't always the best policy as we've learned the difficult way

I don't have much problem with loans if the conditions are favourable and these seem to be.

But like with the previous regime I'd think we'll all hope there's long term funding plans beyond loans.
