Is Ally the Man for the job? - The McCoist Thread
RANGERRAB replied to 54andcounting's topic in Rangers Chat
The job of Rangers manager needs to have performance targets like any management position. I'm sorry but going out Europe last season to Malmo & Maribor, going out the league cup to Falkirk last season and now tonights debacle doesn't suggest to me that any performance targets are being met -

Sorry Ally but I expect to be Queen of the South every time. Please stop the excuses -
The SFA charge Green over comments on SPL EBT investigation

when I go to my bed at night I thank the lord Charles Green is now our chief executive and not Martin Bain. Long may this man be our chief executive - a man who fights for Rangers in every respect. -

And resign. We all appreciate what you've taken us thro' these past 7 months but the stark truth is your simply not up to it as Rangers manager. Watching you standing in the dugout arms folded looking as if you've no idea what to do when things aren't going well tells me a lot. Last season was pretty much the same until Aluko arrived. He papered over a lot of cracks but unfortunately that's not going to happen this season. We need better performances and results starting now.I'm sorry but I don't think you're the manager to do that Ally. I've been on here before saying I think we're short in numbers in midfield. (I mean proper midfielders not fullbacks & central defenders playing there). We don't have the creativity so we struggle to make decent chances. I couldn't believe it in the summer when the only recognisable midfielder we signed was Ian Black.That simply wasn't enough as tonite showed. Who will replace Ally ? I'll suggest Billy Davies, someone who has proved he can manage in the English Championship which I think makes him as good a candidate as we'll get at present. Of course there are others. -
Tend to think the SPL might (and I say that without any conviction BTW) scrape thro' this season. However next season is a definite NO-NO without us and CG knows this. Interesting negotiations lie ahead for our re-entry.
-
When the SPL ceases to exist, (which won't be long in coming) a condition of our re-entry to the top division (whatever it may be called) is that this ridiculous transfer embargo be abolished.
-
Isn't this something for CG to be asking his adversaries at the SPL ? how have they got away with this ?
-
no one should ever under estimate the job Fullerton & Kane did to us at LBG. Effectively preventing us signing players for 2 years despite chairman AJ substantially reducing bank debt then forcing SDM to sell club to Whyte who was a disaster waiting to happen.
-
I said after the transfer window closed we were seriously short in MF & wide areas. If he's out long term I fear we've not enough depth in squad in these areas
-
I don't think these EBT's were declared to SPL. That's the so-called problem although I'd be interested to know exactly which SPL rule has been broken (if you've read them like I have). Having said that these EBT's were declared in section6 of our accounts every year and the SFA gave us a licence to play every year so in that respect you have to ask serious questions who's behind all this and why (we probably do know but 'they' won't come out & say so)

Said it before and I'll say it again, we're seriously short in midfield. We needed another couple and couldn't believe we didn't bring them in during transfer window. What if Ian Black gets injured ? we'll be in real trouble then as I don't think playing Jig there is an option any longer as he's clearly lost a bit of pace (not that he had too much to begin with) -
there were two items in CG's statement I found of considerable interest:- 1) he threatens 'legal recourse' if titles stripped. Can SPL afford a long legal battle? if we're in law courts again what will UEFA do ? suspend SFA ? 2) CG said Doncaster wasn't originally intersted in stripping titles. What's now changed ? who decided ? Who's actually running SPL ? I find it strange SFA (who are the appeal body for us)have no interest in removing Scottish Cups won during this EBT period.

As I understand it, Celtic didn't declare Juninho's EBT to SPL/SFA. Yes they paid HMRC the tax but that's not the issue here. The fact they didn't declare it means they are, potentially, in same boat as us but the biased Celtic-supporting individual at the SPL(Ian Blair) who carried out this 'investigation' won't/can't accept that fact
-
He's baffled ? I'm not. The people carrying out these EBT investigations are biased Celtic men - Ian Blair & lardass MacKenzie.

Excellent OP by Bill McMurdo but Great Britain is not a nation but an island containing three nations: England, Scotland & Wales. Personally I look upon myself first & foremost as a UK citizen (which of course includes N.I.). Our passports state this. I particularly liked Bill's comment above the Scottish shirt having the Royal emblem i.e. lion rampant. Good point indeed
-
No don't think so. The last part of the OP states it would be played in 'parallel with domestic campaign'

Are we forgetting it was LBG who forced SDM to sell the club to Whyte and if he did not do so LBG would withdraw credit ? Do you remember who was then in charge of LBG Business in Scotland ? Manus J Fullarton and his sidekick Archibald Gerald Kane. Guess who they support? They knew Whyte's past business record and hadn't the funds to run Rangers and was an accident waiting to happen. Fullarton is a member of the Celtic Trust and is now working as an advisor to Harper McLeod, who are both Celtic's & the SPL 's lawyers who carried out the investigation into Rangers' use of EBT's Make your own minds up about this. I've certainly made up mine. Corruption & conflicts of interest on a grand scale. -
Agree. Don't see how it could possibly be played alongside current domestic leagues
-
As I understand, the SPL refuse to pay it to us as they say we're now a newco ( they probably haven't got £2m to give us anyway). If that's the case then surely this money is due to the oldco and are D&P or BDO(as administrators or liquidators) not legally required to get this money to maximise the creditor's pot for the oldco? if so and the SPL don't have this money could they themselves be forced into administration ? JUST A THOUGHT
-
We should tell the SPL that if they attempt to strip titles then we'll see them in a court of law. Who knows UEFA or FIFA may then decide to suspend the SFA or something like that. Now that would be a shame.

Where did u read that?

given our lack of signings he may well be needed IMO
