The truth will out Comparing a guy of 22 with a guy pushing 40, apart from anything else....

👏 Immense prediction!

I'm all for caution but I think your concern is over the top. The shares issue is clearly turning existing loans into shares ahead of the 'sale', I really don't think it's anymore than that. The loan is for cashflow, we've relied on directors providing money at this time of the season in the past, we can't now, so we've borrowed. It's not ideal, but it's not criminal. I really think describing our current board as 'crooks's is really unfair. They've made mistakes, no doubt, but there is no comparison to Whyte, none at all.

A great result, and I am, quite rightly, delighted. When I think about just how pig-sick the rest of Scottish football -or, even, perhaps, the rest of Scotland- is with the result, my delight is magnified.

This level of pre-match analysis and understanding of the professional game is further evidence of why everyone should ignore anything I post on football. What a result.

The offside law needs changed. If you have to draw lines, if it's that close, give the scoring team the benefit of the doubt.

Hahaha - hopefully gets more boring. Guy booed, ridiculed and abused b his own fans ramming their words back down their throats. If only we had more players with his attitude and who contributed like he does we wouldn't be in this mess. However, we'll still get fans (even on here) slate him. Chuffed for the Big Man and for those who defended him against the vitriol he has faced and overcome.

From what I understand, its done by percentage so we'll get more seats there, than they'll get at Ibrox Cynical side of me says that if there was a title race, there would still be no away fans

He is a very decent man and this statement shows it again.

I've taken bits of open source code from different places, sourced the data and assembled it myself. It's now an original Rousseau.

The share issue is likely to be the tidy up of the balance sheet pre-sale, converting existing investor debt to shares. It'll be done with the knowledge and agreement of the proposed purchasers, and included in the share purchase agreement.

Seems to happen with frustrating players and there is nothing more frustrating than sitters being missed. But his all round game has never been bad plus the sitter misses have dried up. He is also a likeable guy / player. And the other plus point is his injury record is good.

Dear 49ers, Please let us keep Cerny. Thanks. DA.

Funnily enough, Dessers was a Europe specialist at Feyenoord too. He's been better than Igamane lately though. Whatever anyone says about Dessers, he comes across as a model pro.

The result tonight was for Christopher Potter. My thoughts and prayers are with his family. https://x.com/ottawascot/status/1897654870221463957

He was by Donald's side all through the match

Call me Nostradamus.

Think we've had issues with injuries for a time before Clement so probably just a case of timing. Won't be long until the usual suspects break down again you'd fancy.

Base + 1.5%, which is fairly reasonable.

... I think more about the amount our team might have scored if we had adopted a two-striker line-up for 8 months. Dessers' goal-tally and missed chances are perfectly fine. Else, he would not play at Rangers, but in England, France or Spain ...

Josh Gentles doing well at Alloa, 4 goal involvements in 6 games for a 17year old

and bring Sima back

The proposed new offside rule should apply, it's not a goal or out of play unless the whole ball is over the line so the same should apply to the attacker.

A picture says more than a thousand words!

First time Fenerbahce have lost a home European knock-out tie.

Finally! You're coming around.

Watch the game. Whyshould you get off with it 😅

I believe this to be an honest message and not just lip service from Big Phil. This seems very gracious for a man who was shown very little support from the board or fans not even half way into his rebuild. All the best to him in the future.

Classy statement from a classy guy. It didn’t work but for me he was hung out to dry by the board some players and keyboard warriors. Yes tactically it didn’t always work out but I thought he was a good manager. Certainly a massive improvement on the one before and after.

Something to also consider is that many businesses operate on the basis of invoice discounting and this is considered a very normal practice, even among well established and thriving businesses. This is where a business sells its sales invoices (future income) to a lender at a discounted rate, and then lender then advances them the cash immediately to help manage cash flow. The Macquarrie loan arrangement is therefore just a variation on this theme. As was ticketus. There are many clubs in the UK who use the same lender. What we do need to guard against is bottom feeders like Whyte using such instruments to manipulate outcomes that are clearly not in the club's interest. So I don't blame fans for being worried when these arrangements come to light, but on this occasion it looks like normal practice.

Jose? The coach that was just pumped by Barry Ferguson?

Rousseau, Is the above an original Jackson Pollock or one of your own finger painted creations?

Not ideal being out the cup, but I'd imagine our management team would have been happy to have a good long spell of working with the team, and also a chance to recover a draining trip to Turkiye.

Hottest man in Europe now according to ex turkey player! Is he right have we been playing Dessers in a totally different way or does this new style of play 4-5-1 or 3-4-2-1 Suit him? I suppose time will tell especially with the remaining tie next Thursday if Ferguson has utilised Dessers to his strengths rather than is weaknesses we all seem to moan and groan about. whatever the situation he needs a standing ovation from everyone inside Ibrox this Thursday coming not only for his work rate but his never give up attitude in what Rangers is all about. I know for a fact Dessers will be Ready on Thursday will us the fans and Ibrox be Ready to cheer him on also.

I saw the highlights and the counter attacks looked very good. Fener is a strong team, but Rangers defended well in European games before. The line-up looked a bit strange, very similar to other Scottish teams at your stadium. Perhaps you try it against them too and confuse them, so they try to play football themselves?!

I thought he did well. Didn't look like he'd not been playing much.

Current mood and walking into work tomorrow morning

I knew it was a double bluff 🤣

Robbed by VAR. Surely he was played on?

Not often you'll see me quote one of my own posts but the manager certainly sold us a dummy with his formation and it's worked so far. However, we need to look after the ball a lot more and there's definitely something in this game for us. Come on the Rangers!

SPFL ruling today that pyro used by the UB at both the league cup SF & Final has breached rules and as a result Rangers will get a reduced allocation at our next Hampden game of 500 tickets. i can only hope the 500 comes straight out of the UB allocation but we all know it won’t so the most selfish group of Rangers fans will now cost 500 Rangers fans to miss our next SF. I’m sure they think it’s worth it to blow some smoke up their own arse.

The songs thing does annoy me. I agree many are repetitive dirges. Proper Rangers songs would help the atmosphere. It is not as if we are short of them.

And I’ll always remember Phillips Clement as the Rangers manager who got cheated in 2 cup finals by dodgy refereeing decisions.

So that makes it ok then? I am guessing you no longer go to many away games? They are out of control, assume they are bombproof, hardly even watch much of the game, and in my opinion they do more harm than good to the reputation of the club. How many fines have we incurred because of them? Attention seekers that seem to have forgotten/ignored most of our good songs and replaced with copycat dirges that other clubs ultras groups sing and just change the words to fit players that have done nothing to deserve them.

Many will pour scorn on this. I take him at his word and think it a contains a certain decency. Good luck to him in the future.
