Brenda getting his excuses in early pre the match against BM. 3 sellik defenders injured and won't play. Oh dear.

A 15 million quid Scot ??? I've never heard of the guy.

Nobody can argue with Boyds record Pete. But I've always wondered just how good that boy could have turned out if he hadn't been so unprofessional and heart lazy. He didn't even have the sense to analyse where he was making mistakes in continually wandering offside or to keep his hands off when jumping with a defender. Game after game he did the same thing. The rest of the squad must have hated playing with him - everybody bursting their erses only for that dumpling to get caught offside yet again.

The hatred is dripping from that jump-the-dyke bassa.

It's a racing certainty imo DB.

Boyd would have done what he always did and got himself offside a dozen times. McCoist was at fault for much, but don't blame him for Boyds laziness. Pretty soon Boyd is going to realise that he wasted a career. Lazy, idle bassa.

My thinking is, the money will be converted into shares next time they're diluted.

That's exactly what I posted Rab.

This is the base of the debate I often have with the manks. The company went burst. The club lived on. The club owed the debt, not the company.

Send the bill to Green.

I'll be honest here pete when I say that the "modern" chanting at games nowadays really, REALLY annoys me. It sounds like thousands of mentally challenged youngsters having fits. I haven't a clue what the manks are singing but they have one that goes on for several minutes which has me reaching for the mute button on the telly. Our own youngsters had one that sounded like rivers of Babylon and that set my nerves on edge as well. I like an atmosphere - but more in the old fashioned vein we used to have.

" For a while no-one dared to go to bed without a peak online. " "Peak" ??? Really ?

I thought MOH was fantastic today. Garner impressed too.

What a difference a couple of days make. Not only were we fired up - I saw performances from a couple of players I just never hoped or expected to arrive.

" Rangers have halved their annual losses to £3.3million – but remain dependent on the ongoing financial support of shareholders to keep the club afloat. Ibrox chairman Dave King and the so-called Three Bears – Douglas Park, George Letham and George Taylor – have already forwarded the club £2.9m on loans this month and have promised another £850,000 in March to see it through to the end of the season. The interest-free, unsecured loans with investors now amount to £10.025m, although repayment isn't due until December 2017. The financial results for the year ending June 30, which were released on Friday night, showed the Ibrox club's losses were down considerably on the £7.5m figure for 2015. Turnover also increased to £22.2m to the year ending June 2016, up almost £6m on the 12 months previously. However, the club's wage bill for the current campaign is also up 60 per cent at £10.3m.

" BILLIONAIRE Mike Ashley will have to pay half the SFA's legal bill for his failed attempt to reverse their decision to fine him for breaching dual ownership rules. Judge Lord Brodie ruled at Court of Session that the businessman needs to pay 50 per cent of the footballing watchdog's costs. The judge made the decision following a short hearing at the Edinburgh based court on Friday morning. " http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/mike-ashley-forced-pay-half-9145151?

Given the limited funds within Ibrox I'd say the fact he's on around 20 grand a week makes it an issue mate. I couldn't care less if he plays or not judging him by what he's done on the park for us, but I'd still consider him an issue.

He could have been and probably was suspended for a week while the matter was investigated. Next day he is shouting his mouth off . He was then contacted and maybe disputed the clubs version of events so was handed a further suspension - don't forget the betting stuff comes up too. He's called in today, continues to dispute or refuses to apologise so is sent away while the club either decide what to do or make prep to get shot of him. Meanwhile he's receiving a wage. Nobody knows what he did. Nobody knows what's been said between the parties. Perhaps the club were looking for an apology and it's Barton whose keeping the whole thing going ? It is only a PR disaster at this moment if we believe the ill informed speculation in the press. If it's shown the club are in the right it won't be. The point I'm attempting to make is, warnings, written or otherwise don't come into it if the offence is serious enough.

We haven't played Hearts yet.

Much depends on why they suspended him. If what he did is serious enough then warnings are not necessary.

JOEY BARTON'S suspension from Rangers will run into a seventh week after today's meeting between the player and Ibrox bosses failed to bring an end to the stand-off. The 34-year-old, who was banished following a furious training ground confrontation with manager Mark Warburton in the wake of the 5-1 defeat to Celtic last month, was in Glasgow this afternoon for showdown talks with his employers. It was hoped the meeting would bring the long-running situation to an end one way or another. http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/joey-barton-remains-suspended-rangers-9140422?

I'm aware of that mate. I was trying to address the point you seemed to be making that our support only support if the team are winning.

RBR, maybe I'm reading you wrong, " We have no money , no retail deal , litigation coming out our ears , yet there is a growing clamour to change regime ,what happened to " if the play on the streets we will watch from the pavements " but obviously only if we were winning . ", but season ticket sales would tend to dispute that part. I agree with most of the rest though. There was too high an expectation from our support. We looked at a post Delilah mank side who were playing poorly, and never let the horror shows at the start of their Euro campaign be forgotten - never has a side been so lucky, and thought that our own signings could maybe challenge them. I'd say, possibly. But only if it was Deliliahs squad we were playing against. Their new signings have undoubtably strengthened them and put new life into their serial failures. Our own newbies have upset what were doing the year before. Even taking into account a slight step up in quality of opposition our guys just don't seem to have the same skill with the ball at their feet as last years players did. Too many mistakes resulting in the ball being given away are going on. The team don't look settled. I'm confident Brenda will fail. It's in his nature. We'll come good but money will have to be spent.

I'll give an opinion when it's translated into English Ian. When done I'll be the first to agree. I detest Cosgrove.

In the later years of his time with us I'd agree - if your plan was to move the ball sideways. Imo Ferguson was the same as many turn out. Hungry as a youth. Gathers some experience. Cashes in on it. Becomes lazy. He wanted to take everything on the field and did nothing with it. Miller running around waving his arms about springs to mind in the current set up.
