Leggat - McCoist Wins Trophies Fight


Recommended Posts

CHARLES GREEN was on the brink surrendering to Celtic and handing over titles and trophies in a desperate bid to get a licence to play from the Scottish Football Association.

 

For right now Charles Green is under mounting pressure from his investors as he fails to deliver on the promises he made to them about making money out of Rangers in a get-rich-quick scheme.

 

But Ally McCoist was the man who stepped forward to defend the honour and integrity of Rangers silverware seasons.

 

It is manager McCoist who has been inside Hampden over the last few days playing hardball with the SFA as Rangers bid to have their membership of the governing body and with it, their licence to play, transferred from the Oldco to the NewCo.

 

It has been a combination of performing a high wire act without the balancing pole or safety net for McCoist and Stewart Reganâ?¦and all above thin ice.

 

So far McCoist has not blinked and he has been doing a wonderful job for Rangers. A job he has been able to do, thanks to the absence of Charles Green who has disappeared into thin air for the last few days.

 

Time will tell where Charles Green actually has been and what lies he may have told about his whereabouts.

 

However, I can also reveal that as far as those trophies are concerned, there does not appear to be any appetite within the Scottish Football Association to pursue a vendetta against Rangers and strip them of Scottish Cups they have won.

 

But Regan refused to blink either when McCoist suggested Rangers would accept the transfer embargo if it was suspended for five years, pointing out that any infringement of the SFA rules during that time would see the year-long-transfer embargo applied immediately.

 

Regan dismissed that offer.

 

However, it now appears that the SFA and especially chief executive Stewart Regan, have to be given some wriggle room by Rangers.

 

McCoist has already won a famous victory in making it clear there is no way he will have anything to do with Rangers rolling over and agreeing to be robbed of trophies they have won fair and square.

 

That is a lot more than Charles Green intended to do. He was all for surrendering. Simply because he is under increasing pressure from his backers to make sure they can make their quick buck profit from Rangers.

 

McCoist is divorced from that mucky money making scheme, which is the only reason why Charles Green and his mysterious investors have hijacked Rangers. McCoistâ??s only motivation is Rangers.

 

But now, in the interest of Rangers, perhaps it is the right time for the Rangers manager to give serious consideration to taking a step back and negotiating with Stewart Regan is good faith.

 

From what I have been hearing from a number of extremely well informed sources, McCoist may find he can cut a deal with Regan.

 

With the clock ticking it is perhaps the time for principles to make way for pragmatism.

 

For the alternative may be that Charles Green gets back in there with Regan and undoes all McCoistâ??s good work, leaving Rangers and their silverware at the mercy of their enemies.

 

And there are enough of them out there who have been shouting their message of hate from the rooftops. Tom Boyd. Neil Lennon. I wonder who wrote the hymn sheet they are singing from?

 

Peter Lawwell?

 

Rangers supporters should be grateful they have a man of McCoistâ??s mettle fighting the clubâ??s corner so well, even as he is stabbed in the back from the enemy within Ibrox, chief executive Charles Green.

 

For I can reveal that Charles Green did not consult with McCoist or even inform his football manager of the role new investor Craig Mather will play, particularly in relation to the clubâ??s young prospects.

 

On the official Rangers web site Mather spoke out strongly about what his role will be, making it clear he intends to have a hands-on role regarding young players and be a high profile presence inside the Rangers training complex in Milngavie.

 

Of course Craig Mather is managing director of Simply Sports Management, a fancy name for a company whose business is being football agents and he is obviously only in for the money too, with the special privileged access his status will give him to the Rangers youth stars, a sure fire cash cow for Craig Mather and his Nottingham based Simply Sports Management.

 

Many shrewd observers see the recruitment of Mather, plus the disappearance of Charles Green to goodness knows where over the last few days, as last desperate throws of the dice for the increasingly discredited and more and more harassed looking Charles Green.

 

While McCoist remains on the home front, fighting the good fight on behalf of Rangers. Just as Rangers supporters would expect a true Ranger to do.

We all know where Leggo's heart lies, but I'm not sure how much of his stuff is sourced and how much is rambling.

However, I would like this to be true, and would be immensely happy if Coisty's just beavering away quietly in the background standing firm for the Club.
