RANGERRAB

if these figures are assuming that sponsors & SKY will be prepared to put in similar amounts of cash without Rangers in top division then some people in this country are in for a big shock fairly soon. And CG must do everything to ensure Rangers do not subsidise the SPL junkies for another season by refusing to sign next season's SKY deal. Let them see how they'd cope without us subsidising these leeches

Perhaps Speirs is deaf but support for the IRA from the Celtic support is blatantly obvious at every game home & away and we're not talking about a minority here. I often wonder why the police at Celtic's matches take a backseat while the Celtic support show their support for banned Irish terrorist organisations. Laws are being broken and they do nothing.Perhaps they turn a blind eye just like the weak, pathetic polticians we have in this country (especially in the labour & snp which are awash with celtic-minded individuals) and also the infested scottish sports mhedia of which speirs purports to be a part of. Lie, deflect & deny are their tactics. Always point the finger at your enemies. Blame them & to hide your own indiscretions.How long can this continue before things in this divided, hate-filled little country turn to something much, much worse.

And the money for all of this is coming from where ? have they got a replacement sponsor for the CB? and are SKY quite happy with the collapse in SPL viewing figures not to mention the fact CG says he'll not sign next season's SKY deal.

As well as Whyte let's hope our two amigos from LBG end up doing a stretch as well. I've said all along SDM was blackmailed into selling to Whyte. We need to find out by whom & for what reasons.

Along with his 2 chums from LBG who helped him get Rangers

Let's not forget it was HMRC who allowed Whyte to run up the £15m tax debt in the first place. Given his business track record why didn't they act sooner? Did they tell the SFA ? There are many questions we need answered about both HMRC and LBG in particular

This is the bit I don't get. Muir was supposedly a Rangers man so why would he want to damage the club, who were already reducing bank debt year after year with AJ as chairman? And this bankdebt was nothing out of the ordinary when compared to other clubs debts. MIM's bankdebt was something like £700m yet LBG seemed much more concerned with Rangers debt of around £20m and falling. Why? Makes no sense to me.

The question which must get answered is how Whyte managed to get Rangers. Was SDM blackmailed into selling to Whyte by LBG ? If so by whom & for what reasons? Was it by the bhoys at LBG at that time (Fullerton & Kane) or did they get some patsy at LBG to do their dirty work for them?

I see Cammy Bell wasn't playing for Killie tonight...............

A good response from JT but it is time he went on the offensive instead of the defensive all the time. If he has dirt to dish on our enemies within Scottish Football (and by that I mean the mhedia, the SFA, SPL etc) then it must be time soon to fire the bullets to take these people out. As he says in his article Whyte is under crown office investigation so maybe that is why he is holding back at present but when the time is right he must be prepared to blitz these people. Also if people are going to make false accusations against Rangers or persons employed by Rangers then litigation must be sought

Traynor has dirt to dish on scottish football. They know it is coming..................

Read this today. Very interesting indeed. Just how did Daly get access to all the info in those documentaries ?

There's supposedly 2 SPL players who are out of contract at end of season joining us & will be registered on sept1. No idea who they are though. Perhaps cammy bell is one.

In MF we've got McLeod, Black, Crawford & Hutton. That's it. Two youngsters, one slightly older and only one with any real experience who's been a bit disappointing some would say

Bell would be a decent addition but it's at CB & MF creativity where we're well short at the moment.

I still think it is inconceivable the SFA did not know about Whyte's shady business history ( including his directorship ban) if not when he took over but very soon afterwards. Yet they took no action on this and also when they are alleged to have been informed about when he started not paying PAYE/NI they did nothing about this also.Nothing, of course, until administration in Feb2012. Something isn't right about this. Do I detect the liewell influence in all of this at the SFA?

It's my understanding Rhegan's SFA claim Whyte never told them he was banned as a director for 7 years in 2000 yet on the day Whyte got Rangers there was an article all about Whyte & his colourful background in the daily telegraph. Are the SFA saying they never knew about this article? Whyte's full business history was, of course, revealed in Daly's documentary in Oct2011 yet they still took no action until administration on Feb2012. Why was this ? Did Liewell tell his buddy Rhegan to sit tight to maximise the damage Whyte could do at Rangers? Seems ridiculous to me to impose fines on Whyte for something they knew about anyway. Likewise his non-payment of PAYE/NI. Did they know about that too if they were advised by JT in OCT2011? if so why did they do nothing about it until administration in Feb2012 ?

they should simply rename themselves IRA FC because of the number of IRA songs sung every game. Only patsys like Speirs would say they don't have a problem.

If it's been going on now for 8 months then they've surely noticed somethings............I hope

Wonder what the Police Investigation will come up with?

Will transfer monies not be payable to oldco? if BDO come calling for this money & the SFA can't pay up what happens ? Something tells me both the SFA & SPL are short of cash at the moment

Interesting times ahead. I wonder if this SFA fine is legally enforceable ? If I recall correctly, this fine was for(amongst other things) non-payment of PAYE/NI which it is alleged the SFA were advised of in Oct2011 and did nothing until administration on 14FEB2012. Why did they wait over this period of time ? over to you Mr Traynor

the relationship between CG & ALLY is too cosy for my liking. Just like I thought with SDM & WS. We need much higher performance targets for the Rangers manager. Getting put out of europe by malmo & maribor, getting put out the Ramsdens Cup by QOS at ibrox, getting put out the LC by ICT & Falkirk, getting put out the SC twice comprehensively by Dundee Utd and losing a good lead last season in the SPL fall well short of any targets I'd expect to see set IMO. .

Had it not been for his legend status as a player at Rangers, Ally would have been shown the door long ago. He simply hasn't cut it as manager. His overall record is poor. Most games this season have been torture to watch. When things aren't going well he's no idea how to change things. If home attendances start dropping then CG will have to act. I also wonder if CG would trust him with money to spend bearing in mind we have Neil Murray as chief scout (or whatever his title is)

One good second half display against part timers and Ally has redeemed himself has he ? His overall record since he became Rangers manager has to be looked at and believe me it doesn't make good reading. We need changes in the summer regards the first team manager & coaching staff. The scouting network also needs looked at.
