Is anyone doing the Morton game or will I throw one up? -
Better laying flowers or a wreath outside Ibrox I think.

It has been on all the major news programmes in Holland as well mostly stating his connection with rangers. Wishing his family all the strength they need.

We have not rid the club of Ashely he still has an important chunk in his possession. Also look at every advertising boards. Not much to see other than Sports Direct. -

I hope tomorrow another 400.000 pounds nosedives out their pockets. -
Some rich Bear could buy them and then change their name to Rangers. Sell their park for a shopping centre and move to Ibrox.:devil: Sack the manager first of course.

As long as McGills is not written on it as they are scrapped from Ibrox.

Sacrificial Llambias Woe is Derek Llambias, Rangers' former chief executive who definitely wasn't put there just to make sure Mike Ashley could keep doing whatever the fuck he wanted. It was all down to his work ethic, you see? Business acumen and whatnot. Which is sad really when you consider just how dire he was at carrying out his duties, at least from a strictly duty-bound sense. Sure, he may be good at the helm of a tank brigade, but we've all seen how timid he is in dealing with the breakneck world of airport terminals. It's no wonder help Word came not long ago that Llambias was absolutely shitting it over all the current and pending litigation coming down the pipe. He went to his old friend and partner Ashley looking for a favor: Get me the fuck out of this mess that I leaped into two-footed on your behalf. As it was put so succinctly to us re: the current mood of the Ashley camp: "All is not good." That's without taking into account the news splashing the cover of the Guardian today over his retail empire. Of course Derek's work was not without his rewards, what with KBA raking in hunners of thousands of pounds for doing fuck all. Toss that in with Llambias signing off on Ashley's plans for keeping Rangers in his servitude ad infinitum plus his handsome pay packet and the picture becomes crystal clear, as does his want away attitude now. You had to wonder way back in those halcyon days of 2012-2014 just what a sitting board member of another football club (the managing director, no less) was doing so tied into the business of another. Well, you could wonder if you didn't want to see the answer standing right in front of you, which many keen to press the ol' DONATE button just to hear Jack Irvine's opinion regurgitated to them did. It didn't take a disgraced author to tell you Llambias signed off on the sale of Lewis Macleod just to get it up us, nor did it take a starship captain to inform you that once the Newcastle loyal joined the ranks of asking just what the actual hell was going on at Rangers that Derek's time would quickly be up. Getting your bluff called on a dicey loan can change one's mood rather rapidly, it seems. So here you have it today, with Big Mike asking for cases to be adjourned, with he and Derek stuck in a rammy that will not suit either in the long run, and over in another poorly lit corner stands Sandy Easdale back with Jack by his side hassling fans because people call him mean names on the internet. It's almost as if Mike's errand boys really didn't know what he was asking them to do. The dirty laundry will be aired, but the race now becomes one of who will control the means and method of that airing, fought out among the swindlers and shysters who conspired to rip the very heart from Rangers. Meanwhile, Dave King is quietly going about getting the ducks in a row. You have to wonder if his calm hand guiding the wheel at Ibrox makes the pill just that much more bitter. Of course, inquiring minds can always wait and gauge the mood of Irvine's next dump to his chosen few to find that out. Perhaps Llambias will plead a mix of blind ignorance and blind faith someday in the not so distant future. Perhaps they all will, who knows? What is clear though is that Derek was considering the AWOL exit from General Mike's army, though he may have already been shoved out the door. http://www.thecoplandroad.org/2015/12/sacrificial-llambias.html#more

Transfer Deadline Day: Michael O'Halloran signs until 2020
pete replied to der Berliner's topic in Rangers Chat
Rangers eye swoop for Greg Stewart By EUAN McARTHUR RANGERS are lining up a New Year swoop for Dundee star Greg Stewart. The Ibrox side have targeted the highly-rated striker as they eye promotion to the Premiership. Light Blues boss Mark Warburton is a big admirer of 25-year-old Stewart. Main Image Gers want to land Dundee star Greg Stewart in January window And the English gaffer knows he will have to strengthen his squad if his Championship leaders make it to the top flight. Stewart is seen as an ideal acquisition by the Ibrox club who sit three points clear at the top of the Championship. Stewart has been a huge hit at Dens Park since joining the Dark Blues from Cowdenbeath in the summer of 2014. He was nominated for the PFA Scotland Player of the Year award for his exploits in his first season in the top division. The Tayside club won’t want to lose their prize asset as they attempt to make it into the top six for the second season running. But Stewart has just 18 months of his contract to run and would be free to sign a pre-contract in just over 12 months if he doesn’t sign an extended deal. Dundee could decide to cash in on their prize asset before then and give boss Paul Hartley the chance to add to his squad should they receive a suitable offer in the January transfer window. http://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/scotsol/homepage/sport/spl/rangers/6795293/Rangers-eye-swoop-for-Greg-Stewart.html -

SFA chief executive Stewart Regan learns to live with highs and lows
pete replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
The 5 way agreement was just a draft then why was it shown to Rangers to agree to? -
I watched Rangers training and playing in Germany pre-season a few times and was absolutely shocked. I watched them under Advocaat in Holland and they were very professional. Under Walter I felt it was pretty poor with players walking on to the pitch in Bath slippers and only putting their boots on at the last minute. warming up was a nonentity. With Ally the whole show was poor as we were getting beat by low league Amateur teams. And of course only having 2 weeks of training before a huge European game was absolutely dreadful management. You could see the difference this season when Warburton had the players extra fit and had also embedded a total new system in pre-season.

they thought they were getting a Thunder head but it turned out to be a dunder head.
