Is it prudent for a company teetering on the brink of insolvency to borrow money without a credible plan for repayment? Are not shareholders rightly aggrieved? Fair enough to borrow sufficient to keep trading up to an imminent point of investment but sound fiscal management must usually prefer investment to borrowing. Could the directors be interdicted from borrowing excessively until an egm if a reasonable estimate could be made of the amount needed? Perhaps clever blokes like fs or BD can tell us. Ashley would be an idiot to lend unless default would bring about some happy alternative outcome for him and we don't need clever blokes to tell us what that is.

He makes idiots of himself and his clients. The whole PR industry is an utter charade. Beats me why those who pay them can't see that for themselves.

Cowden will probably clear the pitch. Last Saturday Burnley played on a perfect green surface with snow lying all around the outside of the ground.

...... andthe big man could heid them in.

Surprised her brother hasn't joined as well.

Classic image. Ball in the back of the net, Jimmy Millar turning away, arms raised and a crestfallen 'keeper contemplating the misery of life. Wonderful.

I've got the 1 - 7 wound stripe and strangely the young and middle aged spalpeens make much more of it than their grandfhathers did at the time. It all blew over in a couple of weeks. Those were less frenzied, more sensible days.

I wouldn't like to see Ally's garden. Turnips in the front border. Feeble flowers in the vegetable plots. Costly second rate imported tubers all over the place.

I think he was doing a bit of irony. -
That is far too much baggage for any manager, never mind Rangers. A whole new field of opportunity for the timmish press.

Get McGregor signed up so that Rangers get a fee when a big team comes in for him.

QTS announced as sponsor for latter stages of Scottish League Cup

The game most certainly is not doing fine. It's prospering. It's booming. It's flourishing. Your command of the English language is slightly better than mine, dB, so there's no excuse for not having understood the message from SFA/SPFL control. -
Winter transfer window: Official ins/outs and transfer rumours
Scott7 replied to der Berliner's topic in Rangers Chat
How on earth can "a Rangers ace" "struggle to cement a place in the starting lineup"? If Templeton is an "ace" it's like having a pack of cards with fifty three jokers -
Stands out a mile doesn't he?

Absolute cads and rotters.

Off the shelf company secretary. Come back Campbell Ogilvie. Can you say that on here?

Very true but if you look back through the posts a bit especially # 38 you'll understand the discussion better.

Gattuso linked to succeed McCoist (Clarke joins Reading)
Scott7 replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
Better Adkins than Gattuso, right enough, but that's his second sacking in not a lot of time. I didn't like Pulis at Stoke and I didn't like Stoke when he was there but he's what we need to create a competent team -
Top winger. Top man.

Alec Smith, manager of Aberdeen, our closest competitors at the time used to say that Rangers defended from the front in that as soon as the ball was lost, McCoist and Johnston would track back to try to recover it. de Boer was a better footballer but McCoist was a better centre forward. Boyd at his best is third rate.

And here's me thinking the Compliance Guy had been hibernating. Ah well, a top o' the mornin' to yees , ye spalpeen.

City are starting to get the hang of this Europe business. PSG. won't get past Chelsea.
-
You could argue that the great Jimmy Millar and the lethal Ralphie Brand had even better back-up than McCoist. If I had played in front of Baxter and McMillan and between Henderson and Wilson I might have scored a few.

Oh yes! Near greetin'.

gs is right. He can't go unless the board says thanks for your offer, cheerio. It would cost nothing except wages due to date plus of course any other emoluments accruing on termination. That's why I wonder, has he said: "Hi, board, I'm not up to this, I'll go if you like" or has he said: "Hi, board, I'm jacking it in a year from today." Scenario 1, the board can say "Naw, you're doing fine, son, stay where you are" or "Aye, ok, here's your pay." Scenario 2, a well-run, well-funded board could say "fine but cut your grass on Monday, get the daffs in on Tuesday " and so on for a year while they pay someone else to do the work. (Remember the board is neither well-funded nor well-run.) I suspect the devil lies in the other emoluments accruing on termination.
