  1. The guy's background does appear difficult to decipher but he's certainly persuaded enough people that he's genuine so us proles will just have to be patient until the club comment further (which apparently will happen sooner rather than later). All the signals are that this deal will be going ahead.
  2. I don't think Smith could be any more clear than he has been about his future...
  3. I don't particularly fancy McCoist as manager but he has had ~5 years experience of working 'under' Walter so if he's not ready now, then he may never be. The issue may be determined more by how successful we are this season than anything else.
  4. I think even if Whyte wanted a new manager, then he'd keep it to himself for the time being. McCoist may well still be his preferred candidate for continuity reasons but if we don't win the league, that position may well change.
  5. No problem mate... Many thanks!
  6. And if you don't want to pay for that, you can now choose our free 'Mobile' skin using the footer menu on your mobile device..
  7. Remember you can d/load Tapatalk for this forum as well...
  8. I'd laugh if that wasn't so likely to happen TB...
  9. McCoist is the cheap option - simple. However, he's had 3 years now under Smith so if he's not ready for such a job next summer, he never will be.
  10. For players under 24, other clubs have to pay compensation for their 'training/academy' costs if they buy players... I doubt it will be too much though and a tribunal will have to sit in judgement.
  11. Aye, football is definitely the main issue here...
  12. They seem to have this inside track this time unfortunately so I'll definitely plead the averages law...
  13. All the best Brian!
  14. The club will comment on the takeover formally today or tomorrow.
  15. The Sun have suggested he will sign for Celtic within the next day or two and they'll have to pay compensation...
  16. Ah right - I'll see what I can do but it may be difficult...
  17. Game re-arranged... http://sport.stv.tv/...ited-v-rangers/
  18. Fact is Craig until we know the finer details we can simply can't do anything other than guess at their intentions... �£5million per year transfer budget sounds good to me but where does this come from?
  19. SSN Update 03/12/10: Whyte consortium pictured in Glasgow for meeting with MIH and Rangers representatives.
  20. Decent article from Forsyth but it is strange that he didn't say any of this when on the radio last week...

    JJB Deal

    Bluedell - yesterday...
  22. We were offered upwards of that sum for Boyd last January IIRC... There is serious interest in Miller and I think we could achieve a decent sum for him because of it. Apparently the lad doesn't want to move but, as usual, we can't match the wages being offered from elsewhere (particularly the Middle East) so he is considering his future. I don't want to sell him as his contribution has been invaluable over the piece but if we did have a suitable and certain replacement in mind then as is the case with Bougherra and McGregor, perhaps the bigger picture has to be appreciated. Like you say, very risky though as one of the main reasons we're doing so well is because of our squad continuity.
  23. Most probably but it makes AJ's praise of the bank (and our relationship with them) all the more grating... In saying that, I don't blame the bank for being less than willing to fund transfers when we waste over a million on the likes of James Beattie.
