One unsung hero for me was Kevin Drinkell. Gutted he only stayed for 1 season. He was a tireless worker and did a lot of heavy lifting and spadework for McCoist that season. He never gave up and always put in 100%.

It appeared to me that a vast majority of the support were against Ashley's involvement from the start.

I wanted Moyes for the Ibrox job

He has stumbled on 4 at the back because of injuries but if Tierney was available that would have been a back 5 last night 100%. Why on earth did he persist with Adams upfront who is terrible. As for next manager - even though I wanted Moyes away from West Ham I think he is tailor made for international football.

This isn’t true, but for some reason remember him as only scoring headers. I was quite young when he was with us but did like him as a player.

Bill Shankly called him the final piece of the puzzle in creating a championship winning team. I was at Shankly's memorial service at Liverpool Cathedral and saw Peter Cormack with Ray Clemence in the congregation.

There was significant division in the beginning. Before his tanks rolled up, the PR battleground of social media reflected this, with the general difference of opinion between Rangers Media and Follow Follow. Although, those who had saw the light, were fairly loud in their protests and it wasn't long until it was the many. Not forgetting that Ashely first arrived on the scene somewhere close to the beginning. 2012 or possibly before, Green&Co giving Sports Direct the deal of the century. ----+----- Memory lane I can recall on FF asking you accounting questions by PM, about the numbers being produced from the retail deal 😂 Then, my FF thread being picked up by The Herald to run an article on that retail deal. More than a decade on and we are still not free of the fall out.

Too right we were and still would be

Klaxon, then mouthpiece for Sir Duped/Toxic Jack (TJ), switched sides and went in to bat for 'the good guys' over the spiv years. Other outlets, eg. 'The Scottish Sun' and BBC Scotland (mainly Chris McLaughlin) were used by TJ on behalf of Green&Co, Easdales, etc. Ashley actually possessed 'wealth off the radar' and was initially welcomed by some of the support. Another important error. All you had to do was research his M.O. in business, especially at Newcastle United. Lesson is not to blindly follow follow mainstream narratives without digging deeper. But unfortunately, we are world record holders for Gullibility. Our supporter groups take Be Divided and Be Conquered, to new levels. Any prospective spiv group currently looking at Rangers as a potential project will see a support that will be easily bent over. Just as well that our current custodians are very aware of such dangers. They may be having difficulty in running the club but you can't doubt their motives.

Woah there horsey! Nothing about what I said was to say everything is fine, quite the opposite. When Bennett took over as Chair, and even prior to that as Vice-Chair, he was waxing lyrical about the player trading model being fundamental to our sustainability financially. That culminated in this summer's transfer window with millions of potential transfer revenue walking away when their contracts ended. Thats just one example of ineffective leadership within the club that has cost us significant sums of money unnecessarily.
