I said that today's Leggo article was pure anti Green propaganda, I have not read anything in this thread that would make me change my opinion on that. No apology from me.

Green flying out to Zurich and Whyte flying out at the same time to the same place ....Would that not be a silly thing to do if Whyte is still involved and CG has denied the same day in an interview that Whyte is not involved. They must be aware people are watching their movements no ? Smells of bullshit to me.

There may be some truth in that the SFA asked for more information, but this piece by Leggat is pure anti Green propaganda.

Has Green refused to give the information required or did he say they were in constant contact with the SFA regarding the issues surrounding the SFA membership ?

BLUE PITCH HOLDINGS Mr Green has revealed that Blue Pitch Holdings is the largest investor in his consortium with 23 per cent of the shares and is fronted by Swiss businessman Alessandro Celano. Blue Pitch Holdings is not registered as a UK company and internet searches have failed to find any trace. A Mr Alessandro Celano is a director in 1508 London Ltd which is a very upmarket London design studio. Intriguingly, fellow director Fayeeza Naqvi is the wife of Pakistani born Arif Masood Naqvi – one of the 50-most influential people in the global private equity industry who holds Pakistan’s highest civilian honour. Both he and his wife attended the London School of Economics and graduated in 1982 with Fayeeza joining a London-based global bank. She is renowned internationally as a collector and patron of Middle Eastern art and a tireless voluntary worker for underprivileged women and children in India and Asia. Mr Naqvi is the founder and CEO of the Dubai-based investment bank Abraaj Capital – the leading private equity firm in the Middle East, Northern Africa and South Asia with US$ 1.5 billion of paid-up capital which since inception in 2002 has raised approximately US$ 7 billion with about US$ 3 billion distributed to investors. A Linkedin profile lists an Alessandro Celano as head of the Family Office of Orchadia SA based in Geneva and that a Mr Arif Masood Naqvi is the sole director of Orchadia SA. Repeated attempts to contact Mr Naqvi by emailing the Geneva-based lawyer representing Orchadia SA and Abraaj Capital in Dubai have gone unanswered. The emails attempted to clarify the possibility of a link between Mr Naqvi and Blue Pitch Holdings and sought clarification as to whether Mr Naqvi or any of his companies have invested in Rangers Football Club. After these attempts to establish the facts Mr Celano’s Linkedin profile was either removed or restricted http://scotslawthoughts.wordpress.com/2012/07/14/who-are-the-mysterious-sevcorangers-investors-some-answers-guest-post-by-ecojon/

Anti Green propaganda ?

What concerns me is he's been out of contract for a couple of months and nobody has made a move to sign him apart from us, Is there issues with his fitness or something else we don't know about that is stopping other clubs from making a move ? Why did Hearts not offer him a new deal ? A fit Black would stroll the SFL

This , I don't doubt for a second that Liewell is the puppet master.

Scottish football and common sense ...... Not a chance

The Scottish government sponsor the Scottish community league cup.

My take on that is that a player first has to be registered with the SFA before we could loan him out. If i'm right then signing players and loaning them out would not be a option for us . I could be wrong though

Blackmailing us to accept an illegal sanction. What a shower of corrupt incompetent criminal bastards.

When is Doncaster going to come out and say that personal attacks on Rangers football club by Regan and other SFA and SPL board members is unfair .....

Won more titles than Celtic.

The whole SFA board are guilty of moral corruption. They should all be replaced if Scottish football wants a chance to move forward.

I have no doubt that Petrie along with a host of others are hiding behind Regan as they continue to throw punches at our club, but I am also convinced that Liewell is the puppet master pulling the strings. Regan has been used and abused by Liewell and his gang, almost like the wee skinny kid in school who the big boys tell to do naughty things, desperate to impress the little skinny kids does as hes told. When it all goes tits up the big boys slink away into the shadows leaving the little skinny kid to take the derry.

So any Bears who disagree with your opinion of Ally McCoist don't have a football brain. Aye very good :grin:

I'm bitterly disappointed that one of the players I paid good money to watch and a player I held in high esteem, has acted in the reckless manner he has towards our club and support . His actions have only served to further destabilize the club, and his comment that people buying season tickets are being disloyal to Rangers, is unforgivable. You had your day in the sun Mr Brown and failed to shine.

The European dimension means that race to be the best of the rest will also assume greater importance, with the obvious corollary that the league will be more even and games will assume a greater significance. Whether this will energise supporters â?? or convince Rangers fans from Aberdeen or Edinburgh, for instance, to follow their local teams â?? remains to be seen I got that far then couldn't read anymore for laughing.

Sorry mate but I strongly doubt that Ally McCoist want's Rangers to play in the 3rd div because he has little confidence in his own ability, I think he accepted the 3rd div for exactly the same reasons that 80% of our support voted for the 3rd div.

I feel a sense of liberation, free from the shackles and stinking cesspit of the SPL. The SFL is a breath of fresh air and a new era for us, a place where people will appreciate what we as a club and support bring to the table. You only need to read the Forfar statement to see the contrast between SFL clubs attitudes and the rotten poisonous bile that comes from the SPL . That St Midden statement only reinforces my mindset that we have landed in a better place, where we can prosper and strive to be the best we can free from tyranny. Hopefully by the time we are ready to take the step back into the top division knobheads like Regan and Doncaster have moved on, the SPL have been shamed and confined to history, and 1 ruling body controls all 42 clubs. Or however many clubs are left .

tbh I would much rather we just all got behind Green for now and get back playing football. Maybe further down the road there will be an opportunity for Walter or any other Rangers men who are serious about it to buy the club. Its all about timing, and in my uneducated opinion now is not the time

For me personally it would be , i'm sure others would feel the same way . I also feel it would be a disaster for the club, i'm not sure we could survive a year out. Also I don't think I could handle a full year of Rangers don't exist anymore crap, I just want my team back playing football at any level so people know we are still here and that Rangers football club will carry on.

Sometimes I see method to your madness, even this time I do take your point but just can see that it would be that simple to complete the deal on time and get everything sorted before the season starts .

You think that's safe to say, I think the SFA would drag their feet and make sure there was no chance we are ready to start the season. In-fact if the Green deal was to be nullified that would be Regans wet dream become a reality.
