Wouldn't buy that rag anyway, fickle, unscrupulous and unprincipled.

If they follow previous form they won't spend any more than they need to to compete in the SPL and without us that won't be much.

I doubt that. We had no interest in some of the players because until we went into admin they were under contract and happy playing for us. I don't think things would have turned out much differently if they had tuped over, except we would have got more money and they would have got less.

That just does not make financial sense. He would have got decent money by getting them to stay, then selling them on as most wouldn't stay in Division 3.

I think they have banked on Ryan McGowan, especially after allowing Broadfoot and Bocanegro to go. They obviously couldn't speak to the Hearts players until after their match with Liverpool and this has made it impossible to get someone else in in place of McGowan. There were possibly others they were hoping for that declined. I don't find Green's reasons very convincing but suspect he is using the situation to have another pop at the authorities which has been poular with the support rather than saying that there are other reasons for not getting some of the players that were mentioned. It looks better for us than saying players didn't want to play in the 3rd division and of course there are financial limits as well. The investors are not running a charity. I am very happy so far with our signings but like everyone else would have preferred more defensive cover and another midfield player. If we continue to play like we did on Thursday night I will be very happy.

Haven't been this excited about a signing for a long time. Cannot wait to see him on Sunday.

I wasn't aware of how little they do. Is quite awful and explains why we in Scotland are falling so badly behind. Time for change methinks.

I wonder if Alex Thomson bothered to do the same amount of research as the OP before he aligned himself with this odious creep.

Thanks for translating his name

May be this... The consensus is that it comes from German student slang. Fink here is the German word for finch. In the nineteenth century, students who were not members of a college fraternity were called finks, perhaps because they were considered to be wild birds, uncaged or undomesticated. Later it became modified to refer to somebody poorly regarded, “not one of us”. An alternative German source sometimes suggested lies in one of the insulting slang terms Dreckfink, Schmierfink, or Schmutzfink, all terms for a low, dirty person.

Very well put by Chris. This man has completely and utterly failed the Rangers support given that he involved himself in it. Has shown himself in a very bad light for falling for sob stories from the other side and failing completely to pay any attention to the plight that we found ourselves in. Very, very disappointing from a well respected journalist and more concerning from our point of view has the platform to convince others of his lies.

And he was exceptional at winning penalties, sucking defenders in to bring him down.

That signing excites me.

Yes I see but we would have to be willing to take them and would be hammered again.

I have the stomach for one more fight - the EBT's, no more. We have to get back to normality and move on. I think all the money will be gone in this window anyway.

You are right. I had replied before I saw your post.

We weren't able to sign anyone since the first tribunal as well.

You've just given me the shivers.

First up TBB

I wish they would get someone in to fix things. I spent about 20 minutes on a premium phonecall this morning to get tickets for the Falkirk game after trying for 2 days to get through, every phonecall costing money. I have an online account which I cannot access despite someone resetting my password last week. The guy I spoke to this morning was supposed to send me an e mail to reset my password and I haven't received it. To go into the ticket office is a 50 mile round trip. Grrrrrr

What is equally staggering is that there is only a handful I would have wanted to keep. Hopefully present and future forays into the transfer market will be more successful.

I will say this for Green, he certainly doesn't let the grass grow under his feet and seems to be working hard. It is a fantastic opportunity to expand the brand.

Nice to see the 5 stars still there.

He should still be with us.

Just seen on twitter Goian has gone on a season long loan to La Spezia.
