Biggest problem is, if someone comes in interim or not, will need to work until the end of the season with the current squad. That said, someone who can manage a team could organise this lot differently and make them more cohesive. No idea who though, none of the names thrown about at the minute fill me with anything other than dread.

Saw this on here the other day.
Nae worries. He's already in Jig's pocket.
Need to be a flaming big pocket. I fully expect you guys to take at least five off us.
Kyle adds nothing (bar a bit of weight) to our already lightweight team.
I am hopeful we can make a game of it but having seen our game against Dunfermline
coupled with your narrow (cough) win against Stenny, we are screwed.

Saw the big man score two in my first Rangers v C**tic game at Ibrox in Nov 1980
In a 3-0 victory. John MacDonald got the other.
RIP Big Beastie.
I remember that game as well, I also remember Alex Cameron saying that the best rangers could expect from the game was a draw in the Sunday mail.
Sad news.

Doncaster has brought nothing but disharmony to Scottish Football. Anyone is better than him.

Speaking as an Ayr fan, I am looking forward to playing you next season, you will have some cracking games. Let us hop that Dungcaster and his cronies cannot manage to fanny-up an SPL 2.

Another interesting thing to consider, the 12 and 12 start off being called the 'premiership' and the 'chamiponshio' the rest are in the national league. Now when the split come and goes to 8-8-8, this gives the promotion and relegation play off places etc. However who wins the 'championship'? is it the team who finishes top after the 22 games? Or is it the team who finishes top of the middle 8? Or is there no trophy to win? Unless it is awarded halfway through the season then there is a fairly good chance that the team at the end of the season who tops the middle 8 will not have played in the championship at the start. Yet another absurdity to this nonsenical idea.
-
This idea is no worse than the others being banded about at the moment and certainly does have merit. Suggest it to the SFL teams and see what comes back. I would love to see this in action. Certialy more than an 8-8-8-18 or whatever.
-
I'm an Ayr fan and on the Honestpage (our forum) there are many who are against this nonsense. I shall be emailling our chairman and asking him to follow the likes of East Fife and Peterhead. I wonder what would happen if most of the SFL are against this proposal but the SPL teams go for it? Status Quo or would Doncaster and Regan make it up as they went along. Again?
-
A damn sight more intelligent than the abortion of the 12-12-18 (or is it 8-8-8-18?). A good idea but the fannys at the top won't allow only two games against each other. Despite this being what, us, the fans (you know the ones no one listens to) want. I am sick of seeing the same teams again and again. Boring as feck.
Send this plan to Regan and Doncaster (hate using their correct names) and see what you get back.
-
Shocking how they can ignore they paying customer. Again. How many was it that voted to keep the top league of 10? 90%-odd wanted an expansion of the league and I doubt that would have been an expansion of the SPHell to 12-12, splitting into 8-8-8.
A bit like the Poll Tax some experimented with this system (Austria, Switzerland) then chucked it down the stank. Flaming morons the lot at the top.

From my dim and distant memory: Stewart Kennedy, Lost five goals to England one game in the early 70s. Jim Stewart wasn't brilliant either.
-
CAn anyone post what Keevins said? Personally I think he is an eejit and a sanctamonious Chunt,but it must have been cracking to have been pulled so quickly.
-
My first game involving Rangers was back in the early 80s. I was on holiday in Dublin and my sister and myself took in the Bohemians V Rangers game. An interesting introduction into football! Saw the return leg too and had much fun trying to get off the subway at Govan!
I expect that is why I am an Ayr fan now.

What terrifies me is that if you are paying vastly over the odds for players (Black and Sheilds £7k/wk)add to that the players who were TUPEd over from the old co (these wages cannot be reduced by law for a year at least), means you have a bill of around £7-8m on wages alone. Against third division players? My team (Ayr) cannot pay anyone more than £250/wk on second division money (admittedly p/t). Why are you paying mega bucks for players to get you into divison one when you could do what Gretna did and get players to play for between £500-1k/wk. My fear is that this is totally unsustainable and we could go through the horror of the summer all over again. You have no real banking system and are relying on ticket sales. If the st do not sell as well as hoped and some of the less loyal fans get fed up watching you beat East Stirling 7-0 on a pishy November night and stop going, you may end up in the same position next year. I hope not but I am concerned.
I have no gripe against anyone, you were badly mismanaged by Murray and Whyte. I really feel for all those Rangers fans who have followed their team man and boy for decades. This has been one unholy mess and no-one has come out of this well.
I am fearful that Green is not the saviour (or anything like it), I don't trust him one iota.
-
As an Ayr fan I can echo the sentiments of all the posters on here. This is truly uncharted waters for anyone in Scottish football. I speak as someone whos team will probably miss Rangers as when you go up we will probably go up to the first and then pass you when we get punted back to the second!(now thats optimism for you!!).
I think that Rangers fans have had enough of everyting and just want to get on an play (and watch) football. I know I am. Whatever happens regarding your Big Tax Case is to do with the previous incarnation of the name.
Those muppets in the SFA and especially the SPL should be allowed to rot and die as they have done no good for ANYBODY outside their own wee worlds. Doncaster and Regan should be held up in years and decades to come as to how not to run an organisation.
I wish you all well.

Being an Ayr fan, I have to say that the third division (or first?) will come as a shock to all your fans. What you need to do is follow the Gretna model. Get players who should be a division above where you are and get them as this should get you promoted fairly easily. I assume that your club will have some funds and this shouldn't be too much of a problem. Also you need to remain full-time ,I know this sounds silly, but you will be playing almost exclusivly against part-time teams in Division three and Two (if thats where you end up, no-one knows at the moment). Just trying to be constructive and not here to pee anyone off. You are in a lousy situation and I would be devestated if it was my crappy wee club so lord alone knows how your fand sre taking it. Best of luck.
-
To be honest any form of independant inquiery into the goings on at Ibrox concerning Duff& Phelps should be commended. I fear that what has come out about the goings on at Ibrox (whyte, Murray, etc) must be for the best.

Dave 'Donkey' McPherson. Really, really shite.
-
Can see him at Ayr next season.
Believe me we could do with him. Hes certainly no worse than Brian Reid. To be beaten by the Fake Bankies.... Disastrous.
-
Jim McColl? Is he not a rangers fan.
Is he not the Guy from the 'Beechgrove Garden'?
-
Some things are above football. Brings all the petty rivalry into perspective. So So Sad.
-
Does anyone know what time the SPL will make their decision on the size and number of sanctions? Will it be another 11.46pm shot again, like the SFA?
-
Sounds to me like Super is just putting the pressure on ?
A threat of leaving which of course leaves the SPL tits up.
What McCoist is saying is true. I suspect that even if Rangers finish bottom next season (with only under 19s, is possible)then the SPL would move to suddenly increase the size of the league. I seem to remember Aberdeen and Motherwell being 'saved' in just such a way donkeys years ago. I could be wrong, but something sticks in my mind about this.
If Rangers do leave the SPL to go wherever then the SPL is finished. Probably the SFA would be in serious trouble as well. I for one would not be sad at the loss of the SPL.

Feck sake, Sebo scored. Was this nearly all he did?
