DB, the information was widely known from the day after Whyte bought Rangers. The manks were going ballistic that none of the press were using the story. I got thrown off a Rangers forum for trying to warn. Nobody wanted to listen mate. They were too carried away celebrating Whyte and the chancers he surrounded himself with. Warnings were also given about Green.

While I delight in a shower of scum getting relegated. Now that it's done can we now forget about them and some no mark who sometimes talked about them ?

You could have taken a four poster bed in and slept on it with no danger whatsoever.

Labour were the party who introduced the act that made most of the offences law. The SNP tacked on other rubbish about abuse on the internet but it was entirely a Labour law for years before that colin. Still, here's hoping.

I was interested to hear on the STV news tonight that the question of how to distribute the increased tv receipts is now up for discussion. I wonder if a larger share going to the minor leagues will be one proposal put forward.

I hope Paatelainen demands every penny he is due. I now await their fans holding a "boycott" with the result only a dozen or so tickets are sold. Just saw on the news Paatelainen has gone.

EIGHT Rangers Academy players will depart the club this summer to play their football elsewhere next season. Dylan Dykes, Luca Gasparotto, David Brownlie, Darren Ramsay, Mekhi McLeod, Jamie Brandon, Tom Lang and Jamie Mills who all played in the clubs development squad this year or on loan will now develop their footballing careers at another club. Head of Academy, Craig Mulholland commented: “It is always a difficult time of year when informing players that they will no longer be at the club. “Some of the lads such as Dylan, Darren and the two Jamie’s have been with the club from a very young age and it is an emotional time for the staff and the players. “We wish all the boys well in their future careers.” http://rangers.co.uk/news/academy-news/eight-academy-players-leave/?

There is also the issue of volumes being turned up, down, or muted completely depending on which set of fans are acting in an "offensive" manner. Mind you, the BBC are not alone in that respect.

I thought that's what you meant Cal. Imo there would've been no point trying in any case. As has been pointed out on several previous debates here and on other forums, the SFA know what side their bread is buttered on and control all aspects of football played in Scotland. Quite simply, they would maybe in the end have let us play in an English league [if the English had accepted us], but we would've been playing our home games outside Scotland. There is no way they'd have let us play at Ibrox.

I don't think the BBC could give a monkeys what the viewing figures for Scottish football are mate. They get the same amount of money from licence payers whether the whole country or nobody at all is watching. Also , given the totally amateurish way programmes are produced, presented and broadcast here I'd be wary of wasting another penny funding the gang of sloths at Pacific Quay.

I've never had much interest in English football. I could probably count on one hand the number of matches or indeed highlights programmes I've seen in the past year. " If we like it so much why didn't we join while we had a chance? - am I misunderstanding you cal . Do you mean joing the EPL ?

Setanta were reaching the end of their deal with the SFA in 2010 mate.

We're not talking about the "victims" in both cases mate. In one case we are talking aout the deliberate covering up of the crimes against the victims. In the other they are insulting the memory of the victims.

I promise there is no noising up from my part Pete. I was asking the same questions many years ago. I am also not wearing a cape or have my undies outside my tights. Paedophilia is a serious matter. The covering up of that crime is even more grave. The millions spent investigating Saville proves that, given the scumbag is dead. Again I would put to you that chants at a football match on the subject are in no way to be equated with serious questions being asked on an internet forum, especially when the forum is hosted by a solicitor, albeit a disgraced one who is microscopically examining the whole history of Rangers. At Hampden we all knew that the dead club/new club/sevco rubbish would appear. Some of us also awaited the banners proclaiming criminal or conspiracy behaviour involving Rangers, the SFA, UEFA, FIFA, masons, orangemen, referees, tellytubbies, anybody not deranged - it was pointed out to the opposition fans that some things are real, they happened. Other things are fiction. I for one, am glad that occurred. As for the graffiti, have a look on some of the mank sites - it was our fans who did it to discredit those over the river. Sad to say, that has always been their way of working.

I knew 3 who went on to play first team football. One was committed and went on to reasonable success here and abroad. At 17/18 it was obvious the other two just didn't have what it took to act like athletes and ended up catching the Scottish disease before the inevitable spiral downwards career wise.

A guy I knew who was involved in dealing with kids at youth level told me that just about every single boy taken on by a club does possess the ability to become a footballer. He said what lets the majority of them down is that they show no improvement in understanding/learning/listening to what the coaches are trying to teach them and continue to make the same mistakes they were making the day they arrived.

I used to get comments along those lines while debating with McConville on his site. He could not see that I was not "glorifying" paedophilia but merely pointing out the systematic cover-up of child sexual abuse that went on at Parkhead. Questioning why that cover up passed without examination and celebrating the deaths of 66 football fans are not even in the same ball park Pete.

" I am determined to return this Club to the top of Scottish football as soon as possible " ----------- but will not hesitate to flog the club to the first shady character who turns up 5 seconds after this statement is released .

We've had bursts of great play from several in our squad. But for sheer effort it has to be Wallace - a player I wanted put out the door when McCoist and similar were in charge. Some guys above have commented on the improvement in some of our players. Imo none come close to how Wallace has got better.

I would hope that King is taking a close look at the tarred ones latest blog where he takes the earlier snide and desperate rumour from mank sites and more or less accuses King of forging the document from the S.A. tax authorities .

I'd rather we denied them 50% of the gate money mate. That'll hasten their eventual demise.

Yes, they made a profit of £1.2m one year. They did that by selling off their best players to a league rival. This directly led to todays situation where they have a squad of donkeys and they now face lower league football with the risk of hundreds of their fans staying away. That one worked out well, didn't it ?

I don't think so tbh Ian. Unless it's in a cup we won't be seeing that mob again. I think they'll go to the wall.

Cork pulled ! KARMA !

2-1 ya beauty !!
