RANGERRAB

As he continues to pick up his £14k p.w. sitting at home doing nothing. I think that's the part most of us find difficult to accept knowing that much-needed money could be getting put to much better use.

None of those guys were picking up a wage of allegedly £18k p.w. though were they? Nor was there a determination to have them in the team regardless of performance which seems to be the case with McCulloch. McCall's team selection & tactics over these play-offs will be crucial if we're to get promoted. Both McCulloch & Miller should not be involved in any way if we're to have any chance whatsoever

In the short term can I suggest McCall stops playing McCulloch at CB and stops playing the ineffective Kenny Miller up front

Who knows maybe McCall will come to his senses & stop playing McCulloch at CB because he is hopeless there. He might also stop playing Kenny Miller too, another who is well past his best and shouldn't be in the squad let alone the team. One can only hope.....

McCall is making the same mistakes McCoist did i.e. - continuing to play McCulloch at CB - continuing to play the ineffective Kenny Miller - continuing to play just anout anyone at RB except someone who is a RB - continuing to be unable to get more out of the strikers He seems afraid of taking bold decisions to try & changes things which does not augur well for him staying on next season

And do ISDX have better standards? Was that why we delisted? Are we genuinely trying to get listed on the ISDX? So many questions needing answers....

We do not know. The new board have still to tell us their plans to take Rangers forward & with ST renewal not far away I'd suggest they start pretty damn soon. They have barely said a word since taking over

Why wouldnt he be? He is determined to get every last penny from Rangers because he knows there is absolutely no chance of getting another jobas a manager let alone one daft enough to pay him £14k p.w. I also think the relatively quick appointment of McCall showed what the new board thought of McCoist & his assistants and that they never even considered bringing him back.

You need to remember Ashley wants out of Newcastle & will do so when he gets a buyer(if he hasnt done so already). For that reason alone he's hardly going to throw tens of millions at Newcastle is he?

It is a flawed ruling as I've stated previously. Dual ownership of clubs exists throughout Europe. Why do the SFA beg to differ?

As I said earlier if Murray and Gilligan believe Ashley can be beneficial to Rangers they'll work with him. But to go back to the OP I'm deeply suspicious as to why the SFA ruled against dual ownership of club whilst it seems to be commonplace elsewhere in Europe.To me the SFA is controlled by one club nowadays and their dual club ownership ruling reflects that.As well as Rangers it could mean the likes of the St Mirrens & Motherwells could become feeder clubs for EPL & championship clubs and become better sides with better calibre players in the form of loanees from parent clubs

Following last week's 'amicable' talks that might not be happening any time soon. Make no mistake if Paul Murray & John Gilligan think Ashley's involvement can be beneficial to Rangers they'll work with him. And Rangers need serious money from somewhere. Doesnt look like Mr King is too keen to provide loans so where else do they go? I'd doubt T3B can provide much more loans

Have they stopped him? Will they be able to stop him?

A bad week for the SFA just about to get worse.... First there was the Josh Meekings fiasco.Now this. Whether people are pro-Ashley or Anti-Ashley is besides the point here. There are examples of dual ownership of clubs throughout Europe.Giampaolo Pozza being the prime example who owns Udinese, Watford & Grenada.Why are the SFA opposed to it if UEFA arent? Shouldnt all UEFA countries have similar legislation? If not what's the point of UEFA? The cynic in me tells me this SFA legislation is to protect ra hoops to prevent meaningful competition from other clubs in this country. The SFA will not beat Ashley and they know it

By the end of next season we'll have satisfied all the newco criteria to allow the club to play in Europe. We'll have had three years audited accounts by then which is what's required. However if God forbid) we're still in the Championship next season our only route to Europe will be the SC

No point paying Hibz any money if his contract expires one year from now. Get him on a pre-contract next January

another yahoo from the glesga legal profession maybe?

Wow has Keech just realised that the SFA are rotten to the core and run by the yahoos?

And the fact that FIFA didn't agree with what they were proposing to do. Doesn't anyone find that a bit concerning?

Heads must roll at the SFA over this.

Isnt Lord Carloway John Reid's buddy?

Ferguson would be a massive gamble as he hasnt played for so long. I think McCall simply has to get his tactics spot-on if we're to get promoted via these play-offs. Accommodating both Vuckic and Ferguson in the same team may be difficult IMO.

I'd be surprised if Boyd,Miller or Daly featured again this season.

It is corrupt and run for the benefit of one club. The circumstances behind the appointments of Rhegan, Lunny & the latest yahoo Compliance Officer need investigated. The vindictive punishment handed out to Josh Meekings is testimony to the way it is being run. Are they stupid enough to go against what FIFA are saying?

Surely this FIFA intervention makes the position of the SFA Compliance Officer untenable? He must go of his own accord or be sacked
