So does this mean no Rangers TV as long as we're in the SFL?

It's just an attempt to blame the impending financial meltdown on us. Division 3 should be the only option if "sporting integrity" is the true motivator. My fear is Green, having said he wants a quick sale, accepts a place in Div 1 so he can sell us more quickly. We need a statement out as soon as saying we will only accept div 3.

Aye very good Whittaker. It's still Rangers regardless of the company. Seldom has a player who took so much given so little.

So what should AJ have done? Made it public knowledge?

AJ joined in 2004- well after the EBT scheme was put in place. With him as our chairmen we slowly but surely began to reduce the debt. We made a half year profit of £9m under him one year. The guy did what he could. He probably couldn't say anything at the time because of how it would affect MIH and it could have meant legal action against Rangers for a breach of confidentiality.

I have no doubt that Whyte expected this. AJ said yesterday that Whyte spent the majority of due dilligence on the tax case. He should be prepared for every eventuality.

This. Ally is a Rangers man through and through and no true Rangers man would walk away from the club in this situation. Whether it's Ally or us as fans. We need to get behind the club, the team and Ally now more than ever.

So someone who has admitted to being racist in the past is allowed to manage England and GB, but Terry is stripped of the captaincy because of something he allegedly said. Looks like they were trying to get rid of Capello without having to sack him.

He played for us first. Scored a goal a game for the 19s but was released because of his attitude apparently. Cousin could probably add something, but this is bottom of the barrel stuff.

So the £1 million payoff to Beattie counts as investment in the playing squad? We would have paid him that anyway.

They will sign off on the accounts if they present a true and fair view of the club's economic position. The resolution of the tax case does not change the club's economic reality at 30th June 2011. GT have probably asked Whyte to make a provision for the tax case and by the looks of the unaudited statements, he hasn't. So the only thing he could be doing is waiting for the tax case being resolved and then going back and making the appropriate provision for the tax liability if we are found guilty. Essentially it could turn a £70k profit into a £49m loss.

Is anyone going to realistically buy a Scottish football club, let alone one with our recent financial problems, and expect to make money? The majority of us if we were billionaires would happily plough money into the club even with the financial uncertainty. What's best for Rangers FC right now is signing another striker who can help us challenge for the league. Whyte ridiculed the last board for failing Rangers in our "hour of need". Where was Whyte when we needed his backing tonight? All this talk of £5 million invested in the playing squad and £5 million in working capital to facilitate the running of the business. At no point did Whyte say net investment. Selling Jelavic for around £6 million therefore doesn't affect the £5 million that he may have already invested in transfers/ wages. So much for the frontloaded investment if Ally asked for it. We couldn't use a couple of million for a fee and wages from the future guaranteed amount? It's starting to look like he doesn't have the cash. Besides, who is holding Whyte to account on his promises in the shareholder's circular? If he hasn't invested the required amount in working capital or the playing squad then the £18 million debt is wiped. But who is there to ensure that he honours this guarantee?

Of course not mate, Greegsy's jokes are far too important

Would definitely take him back. We need a better option off the bench than Healy and he's a proven goalscorer here. He will probably go back to the championship though.

Totally agree with you there. I believe the wage bill has increased from last season. But as I said, after the turnover in the squad from last year as well as the 7 or so new deals we have handed out to existing players, I just can't see how we are spending £5m more on wages a year.
