    Totally agree I think I have been sleeping for about 20 years as it feels that close.

    Can I borrow your shuffle for a day?

    I would find it almost impossible to ban Colin Stein anyway as he was my hero.
  5. A wage for the boys?
  6. We announced years ago we had the best sport science guy around but it didn't help 1 iota.
  7. :ohoh::ohoh::ohoh::ohoh:
  8. I agree Murray will never put another cent into Rangers. My OP was a throw away remark in that context but I am like King's statement I would like it to happen. I feel it would be a get it fucking up you to the people that raped us and to the dark side of the city. 55 will come in the not too distant future.
  9. I don't mean this bad but how does King think it can be done then FS? I honestly made the OP comment on the same thoughts as DB. If King thinks it can be done then surely Murray could help Rangers finance it. I am also sure I read somewhere that BDO would also be willing to work on brining it out of liquidation. I may be wrong and can't find it on Google at the moment. Do you think it will be impossible to do and Why? I am not being cheeky just interested why you think or know it can't be done.
  10. Yes I didn't realise that either.. May have a downside that the gravestones may be on the plastic paddy IRA graffiti hit list. I sincerely hope not.
  11. I hadn't forgotten I was busy gathering info. Between late tonight and tomorrow 12pm.
  12. This seems to be Warburtons style looking for young talent that has fallen by the wayside. It certainly worked with Tav and Waggy and there are certainly some jewels out there if you know what stones to turn over.
  13. Martin Bain had a good salary and bonuses from Murray so I don't think it would be him. Irvine was also on his payroll so doubtful. Must be c. Alastair Johnson I would imagine
  14. I would prefer we tried him in France and he got sent to the Guillotine.
  15. This is the clause which I said normally exists in contracts in another post. Insurance companies will also never pay out if forms have been fraudulently filled in.
  16. I watched the 2nd half of that and I really have to say the standard is no more than middle class amateur in the men's game. I saw an interview with a coach last season and she was complaining of the difference of money in the men's game compared to the ladies game. well in my view before you can expect big money you have to have a product and the product in ladies professional football isn't that great. Chelsea were a class above Glasgow city and Aluko's sister should have scored about 5 if she had a left foot. Every time she was cutting inside on to her right which gave the defenders time to block her. The GC goalkeeper kept stopping shots with her feet which saw her duffing the second goal which was easily savable. I would say I have seen better keepers playing in pub teams. I noticed you never mentioned the small FC Twente knocking out the mighty Bayern Munich DB.
  17. Ha ha beat you too it . I will delete the other one.
  18. well David maybe you can bring Oldco out of liquidation as it was your doing that got it there.
  19. We all know it is at times. I am just not sure his crime is against Rangers. Whether that makes a difference or not I do not know as normally in a contract like that there is a clause ruling out criminal activity. From what I here Toxic has been spreading the word that Green's case is Iron clad but he is hearing that from people who want to believe that. The law has a way of kicking the victims in the teeth instead of looking after them. How many victims win claims against criminals,cowboys etc not to see a penny just because there is no pressure for the culprit to pay up. A lot of the time they just start up again under a different name.
  20. Ordinary criminals will of course not have a contract to cover their cost. The precedent here will be can a director of a company make a contract for himself that covers his legal fees even although it is for crimes against the company? The director of a company as far as I know (and I don't know a lot on these facts) should act in the best interest of the company. That is the point I see Rangers contesting. The thing is, is acquiring the company fraudulently a crime against the company or a crime against other possible People/system? It is of course possible to acquire the company fraudulently but still have it's best interests at heart. If I steel a toy from Woolworths am I doing harm to the toy? From what I am led to believe the date set is for a debate where both sides can put their case, call witness's etc. If the judge finds reason that the courts should decide on then it will be put through the courts probably some time next year. I am sure there are people on here with more knowledge than me on the subject.
  21. http://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/scotsol/homepage/sport/spl/rangers/6690424/Gers-scout-it.html RANGERS will end a two-and-a-half-year search for a chief scout with a move for ex-Liverpool star-spotter Frank McParland. McParland, currently the sporting director at Championship Burnley, is seen as a key appointment in a root-and-branch Ibrox rebuild.
  22. AT a hearing at the Court of Session in Edinburgh today Lord Tyre ordered that full proceedings into the matter will take place on November 12. A JUDGE has set a date for the case which will determine whether Rangers should pay bill the legal bills of former Ibrox chief executive Charles Green. Lawyers acting for the businessman went to the Court of Session in Edinburgh today in a bid to force the club to pay Mr Green's expenses. The case had been due to be heard on Friday but was moved forward as Lord Tyre was free to hear the case. Green, who led a takeover that purchased the Ibrox side's assets in 2012, is one of six men who are set to face high court proceedings in the near future in connection to their activities involving Rangers. He is expected to stand trial alongside fellow businessmen Craig Whyte, Gary Withey, David Grier, David Whitehouse, Paul Clark and Imran Ahmad. Green wants the club to pay the costs of his defence. Judge Lord Tyre today set a date for proceedings into the matter to take place at the civil court in Edinburgh on November 12. He added: "I am persuaded of the need for a debate." Green, who lives at an undisclosed address in France, had approached the club prior to his arrest on criminal charges. He requested the Ibrox side pay his legal costs in respect to the Police Scotland investigation. The former director claims that the club had agreed to pay any legal fees connected to his time at Rangers as part of his severance deal. But Rangers refused. The club's present chief executive Dave King told journalists that Green would have to pay his own lawyers. In a statement released to the press last month, King said: "Charles Green approached the club prior to his arrest and demanded that we pay his legal costs in respect of his co-operation with Police Scotland into his time as an officer of the club. "I advised him that we would not do so. He was subsequently arrested and has now approached the court to compel the club to pay the legal costs of his defence to the criminal charges. "This application will be strongly resisted." This prompted Mr Green's legal team to launch an action at the Court of Session in Edinburgh. Green, who made no plea or declaration when he initially appeared in court in relation to the criminal charges, was not present at the Court of Session today. He is expected to appear at the High Court in Edinburgh on Friday when a preliminary hearing into the criminal case is scheduled to call. http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/charles-green-latest-judge-sets-6625735
  23. I just spent 10 minutes trying to work out what PMU meant.
  24. Just when you think it can't get any worse up steps Robin van Persie unmarked and scores with a fine header. unfortunately I don't think he realised that the teams had switched ends as it was in his own goal. The Netherlands did pull 2 back and should have had a 100% penalty which would have made it 3-3 with 10 minutes to play. van Persie got yellow for diving for his trouble. Gary Lineker seemingly tweeted something like My heaven Holland have changed into Andorra. Funny enough the team that gave us football that everyone wanted to copy stuck 2 big strikers up front and punted the ball up to them from the half-way line. Ally as next manager?
  25. In deep trouble. In a game they must win they are 2-0 down against the Czech Republic. The Czechs are now down to 10 men but scoring 3 goals is a mountain to climb. It looks like no Holland at the EC. No Holland but Northern Ireland what odds would you have got for that before the qualifiers.
