anyone know what's happened at the court of session?

it seems Raygun does.

a more important question is what are sports direct hiding by trying to gag the board?

After winning the double? He was caught with his pants down talking to us and was probably sacked after negotiating with other clubs.

He seems a mercenary. How long would he have lasted with us?

it'll be more likely to ensure confidentiality for the onerous contracts at Friday's GM.

what exactly are sports direct trying to hide? such drastic action to keep things confidential.

They didn't expect us to pay it back, as MASH thought they would still be in control of the board.

The fact fatty is bleating to the press, suggests there is no limit on when the £5m can be paid back. He probably thought before the EGM, that we would owe him £10m and have most of the assets as security. He's been outmaneuvered and he knows it.

The Mail are saying Warburton holding talks with Rangers.

can they not just publish what each section will cost?

Zappa, are you watching a live feed?

Very sad news indeed. A player from the era I grew up watching Rangers. Centre half combination of Jackson/Johstone or Jackson/Forsyth. An underrated player imo. I never realised he was at RANGERS so long. Condolences to his family.

http://www.rangers.co.uk/news/headlines/item/9429-colin-jackson RANGERS Football Club is deeply saddened to announce former defender Colin Jackson has died. Colin lost his battle with cancer and sadly passed away peacefully last night surrounded by his family. Former teammate and close friend John Greig commented: “I have known for some time how ill Colin was but I am devastated by the news that he has passed away, I have lost a great friend and my thoughts are with his family at this very difficult time.” The Rangers Hall of Fame member and Scotland internationalist was a towering centre-half who gave the Light Blues 20 years of tremendous service, winning every major domestic honour with the Club in more than 500 appearances. Born in London on October 8 1946, Rangers signed Colin from Sunnybank Athletic in Aberdeen in 1963. He was a tall, slender stopper who was excellent at reading games and denying opponents goalscoring opportunities. Unfortunately he failed a fitness test on the eve of the 1972 Cup Winners' Cup Final in Barcelona but played a significant role in getting the Club to the latter stages of the competition. Rangers fans will always remember the closing moments of the 1978-79 League Cup Final against Aberdeen when Colin headed the winning goal in the 90th minute. Colin was also instrumental in setting up the Former Rangers' Players Benevolent Fund with John Greig, Sandy Jardine and Peter McCloy and he was a regular in the hospitality suites at Ibrox for many years. Rangers Chairman Dave King commented: “On behalf of everyone at Rangers Football Club I would like to send my sincere condolences to Colin's family and friends at this very sad time. Colin will be sadly missed by everyone who knew him.”

Thanks very much and thanks to Zappa for all his hard work in running it.

The board could hardly set out plans during the playoffs. I would expect some sort of movement next week.

ps enjoy the tournament.

Look on the bright side, you can see Charlie Adam in all his glory.

Zizkov was in the UEFA Cup not Champions League.

In military style I believe it's a bridge too far.

A mugs double:D
