RANGERRAB

YES - If he wished to invest & could prove he genuinely wanted the best for the club. But it ain't happening. Read my post again.

I actually don't think McCoist is wrong but there is not a cat in hells chance of Ashley investing in Rangers or any club. He is getting out of football altogether

Legislation brought at the request of the yahoos to get big bad Rangers. However the yahoos started to get snared by this legislation and so they now want it repealed. A classic case of unleashing a tiger which turns to maul you

I often wonder what type of individual is attracted to a club whose support openly hate the country they play in. And whose support seem to be above the law as we witness all too often when we play them. Why is this & who condones it ? I neither trust nor like them. I suspect there are many like myself who think this way too.

What are the constraints which make Pittodrie unsuitable for internationals ? Anyone know?

How come we got 5 from Newcastle 3 years ago? ( albeit 4 were injured)

Good to see we're getting players in but I do expect(or hope) a few will depart as well

Is it only betting companies who want to sponsor Scottish football ??

Maybe we'll just get a slap on the wrist like Celtic do every season. UEFA are a joke of an organisation

It is not strange or difficult to understand at all. Since Holyrood was set up & when you look at those now in charge it is self-explanatory. They hate us & favour them because they'll get more votes from them. And to get those votes they produce anti-Rangers legislation.

Cardoso's problem is that it looks like Murty doesn't rate him

I'm always sceptical about friendlies but beating the Brazilian champions 4-2 will do us no harm at all. Only the Scottish mhedia won't like it though

I'd take Naismith back in a minute if I thought he was half the player who left in 2012. Sadly I don't think he is though.

5,000 UK companies used EBT's. Let's see how many of them HMRC go after. I've long suspected it was a rogue element within HMRC which pursued Rangers. Lord a Hodge is not a tax expert. Both tax tribunals(lower tier & upper tier) found in Rangers favour but when this went to common law courts they found otherwise as the judges probably didn't understand tax law and took public opinion into account as well. It will be interesting to see how this develops.

The most bizarre loan deal ever. Azerbaijan ??? WTF

But.....but.....ra Shellik wur tired. Brenda said so.

It will be harder to get rid off some of these players than we think. For example:- 1) Are we prepared to write off millions of pounds of transfer fees paid for these players & if so how much are we prepared to write off ? 2) what about players returning from loans? Do we want these players back? 3) Who would want any of these players & would they be prepared to pay the exorbitant wages we're no doubt paying them? I'd suggest we'll need to offload around half a dozen players first before we get anyone in. I repeat, I don't think that is going to be easy

Happy new Year to all Gernetters

The recruitment policy at BBC Scotland's sports dept has been evident for a few years now. Candidates from a non-Rangers background or anti-Rangers background will get preference. And their broadcasts don't hide it either.

Is the answer not rather obvious ? Same for Chris 'bicycle helmet head' McLaughlin, Jum Spence, Cosgrove, Cowan, etc, etc

He is a basic defender who can win the ball and clear it. Sometimes that is all you need

Agree mostly but we have to get it right in the so-called lesser games. What I mean by that is losing at home recently to Hamilton & St Johnstone. When teams come to Ibrox to 'park the bus' and hit us on the break we need to be able to cope with this better than we've been doing this season. Get these games sorted & we'll be challenging for the title

I'm a bit deflated still. We should have won that today.

Hate to say it but that was two points dropped.

Just about everything about King is unconventional. Like it or not we all need to get used to that. He'll do everything he can to avoid playing by whatever business rules are out there. Sometimes he gets away with it, sometimes not. His problem, and that of the current board, is that they've made too many mistakes & bad decisions since they took over nearly three years ago.The fact we're now looking for our third manager in that time tells its own story. But the board cannot be accused of not providing funding to improve the playing squad even if it hasn't always been well spent. Pedro wasted the best part of £8m last summer & Warburton was allowed to squander too much the summer before on players who couldn't get near the starting XI. Ultimately though the buck stops with the board & that includes Dave King. We can only hope things improve in the year ahead. With a DoF now involved in transfers I believe it will.
