RANGERRAB

what will happen is that the sports companies such as Adidas, Puma etc will be invited to tender for the contract for the Rangers strip for a fixed period of time. The bidder whose bid is deemed best by CG & co will get the contract. Many think it'll be adidas but I've a feeling Warrior ( who manufacture the liverpool strips) are well placed at present.

It's a longshot I agree but we need to get out of Scotland. We are stagnating here.

We need to be ruthless. It is the only language these people understand. These people are not our friends. They wanted to put us out of business last summer. I shall never forget that for as long as I live.

Forget England. Won't happen. Too many obstacles & too many leagues to get to the EPL. However would the recent proposal to amalgamate the Dutch & Belgian leagues ( the Beneliga) be an alternative to England? They need big clubs & I believe Rangers would be welcomed with open arms. Question is how feasible would this option be in CG's quest to get out of Scottish football?

his injury record is horrendous but the few times I've seen him he'd looked a good player

Time for CG to get tough. His promise that he'll not sign any SKY deal next season must be kept. And he must tell any SPL/SFL club who backs these proposals that we will boycott their ground next season. Make no mistake the SFA/SPL/SFL subsidy junkies require our support & money for these proposals to work by way of TV deals & our away support financing these clubs. We must do all in our power to sabotage these proposals. This is called revenge.We owe these cretins nothing who wanted to put us out of business last summer.

The more I think about it maybe they won't pull out. SKY too. After all they're paying peanuts for scottish football and that's the big issue here. The Australian A-league gets double what the SPL gets & it's not exactly the best league in the world is it? No the real issue is that the Dumbcasters & Regans when they came into scottish football were to get more TV money ino it. They have failed miserably in that respect. Walter Smith warned when he left Rangers there was no money in scottish football. We're about to see teams reduce their wage bills by replacing existing players with cheaper inferior ones. Will supporters watch it ? will they pay tv subscriptions to watch it ? I doubt it very much

wooosh !!!! Swept away as archie would say

When will the rest realise this? Are Celtic afraid of a challenge? is that their problem?

Think you'll find CL going back to more knockout rounds as there's too many games no one wants to see. That will mean less games/less money for Septic. Whenever I look at the CL games b4 xmas it reminds me of the SPL with the amount of empty seats at games

??? Please explain ??

we're the biggest in scotland right now in terms of attendances & tv viewing figures

tell that to Ticketus !!!! how much have they lost ?

Their biggest problem will be trying to attract quality players now. Who wants to play in the SPL? Can't see anyone signing on the chance they might get into the CL which is losing its appeal IMO as there are too many teams in it now

If they've so much money then why do they continually seem to be looking for cut-price players then ? they never seem to spend any more than £1m or £2m at most. they've a massive wage bill and must have lost a fair amount due to the low attendances at their SPL home games. Yes they'll be financially sound but no more than that.

let's hope the same investigators turn their attention to the 2 bhoys who used to run LBG's Scottish business division. We need to know if SDM was blackmailed into selling to Whyte

Let's face it - if these insane league reconstruction proposals go ahead ( which I doubt because SKY won't buy into it & replacement sponsors for CB & Barrs Irn bru will be hard to find) then it's case of asking the last person leaving scottish football to pleaase switch off the lights. If Rhegan, Dumbcaster & Longmuir think this will improve Scottish football god help us. Just about every football supporter in Scotland seems to think these proposals are daft from the ones I've read.

septic don't have 44,000 season ticket holders. nowhere near it

the russian & ukranian leagues are combining. The dutch & belgian leagues are proposing combining to form the beneliga. Things are happening to allow weaker leagues to amalgamate to form stronger leagues. It may be way off but one day we'll leave this nasty little country behind & play elsewhere

Again I ask - have these proposed reconstructed leagues got a TV deal or new sponsors to replace the CB & Barrs Irn Bru whose deals finish at the end of the season ? if not where's the money coming from to pay all of these SFL clubs?

Where's the TV money & new sponsors coming from for this league reconstruction?

I'd be more inclined to say some organisation. But which? This man clearly gets an income from somewhere.

if it's proven SDM was blackmailed into selling to Whyte by LBG will BDO pursue LBG also ? would be good if Fullerton and/or Kane were to do a stretch behind bars would it not?

unless they get a new SKY deal & new sponsors this whole reconstruction is dead in the water IMO. Perhaps Longmuir knows this & dumb and dumber don't

what I don't understand about phil multi-names is does anyone pay him an income ? who employs him ? where does he get income from?
