king loses in court to SD/Ashley, makes (with club money) a £3 million pay-off to prevent further court action and then promptly signs a new deal with SD.
Didn't do our balance sheet the slightest bit of good, far from it.

How do you explain Aberdeen Having better sponsorship and commercial revenue than us? Yes being more successful would bring in increased revenue potentially from bonuses however the club is currently bringing in the same revenue in these fields as 4 years ago.
Robertson being at the helm is why we are pish poor in all these fields.

KingKennyMiller must be on a break from making posts about who is coming/being signed etc

Totally Miller is out of contract and better be released and we should be seeing if we should be signing Cummings by playing him.

See this Miller works hard is there anything to actually back it up like passes made etc? All i see is a guy playing in a position that is not his original one due to age running around a lot, shouting but not actually contributing much.

The board are that useless they can't even attempt to put a positive spin on things 
"yes were pish, made an arse of it with the managers, but we're still useless and have no one lined up, but i want every one of you to know how staunch you are, we know how much you love Rangers, you show it by buying a record number of STs, by the way ive got fuck all good to say apart from you guys are really super, geez yer money"
im surprised they didnt tack on a wee No Surrender or WATP on to that
Theyre just going to gamble on another pish manager, fling some cash at him then consider their job for the season done regardless of how it goes, oh and they won't forget to mention the extensively extensive amount of extensive unseen work thats been done. Youd think with all the unseen work they've supposedly been doing that our Club wouldnt still be and complete shambles and an utter embarrassment. But at the end of the day we are dealing with convicted criminals and fraudsters so what should we really expect?

Hopefully he gets drug tested and we can tear up his contract

I have been on here a couple of years and nevet seen anyone being sarcastic or overreacting

I think so 
big Jackanory Dave will be all over it. 
We will be linked with pep and zidane by the end of the week 

The consensus seems to be that because he won the title with Ajax (4 times ) that he's some managerial maestro, but when you look at it more closely - that's not exactly the case.

He took over from a team built by Jol who were sitting in 4th place, only 5 points off the top with 1/2 the season not even played. PSV, Twente, Alkmaar and Gronigen all dropped points allowing Ajax to take first place (as opposed to Ajax going on an undefeated run under De Boer).

Then you look to the next three seasons - he spent in the region of 30-40 million. His biggest league win margin was by six points over Feyenoord whilst they were going through one of their worst periods in recent years (at the time).

His career at Inter and Crystal Palace speaks more about him as a manager than his time at Ajax.

I'm not knocking him, I've had a ST for Ajax (twice) he's a footballing genius and hero to fans of both clubs - but I can't see what he would bring to us, unless he's given a hefty transfer budget - which is highly unlikely. His time at Ajax is a whole different scenario from managing us especially given the financial restraints to which he'd have to work under.
Not for me.

Mate I don't blame you for being cynical.
I'd be the same. Just where I've heard it coming from.make me believe it. 
Totally understand everyone doubting it 

The problem is and call me a cynic but it will not be the first time stories have been grown arms and legs. How is this being funded? I assume he is probably still on gardening leave from Palace.
From going to getting a 3m loan to paying the guts of 2m a year for a manager just before renewal has Jabbas paws all over it.

Was there that night, went on the Kinning Park bus.......25 years ago today, that's a scary thought FFS.
Met the late, great Bobby Shearer at the game, still got his autograph.
For all you young pups that's what we'd ask for when we met a Rangers player back in the day......before selfies 
Old git Loyal.
That season will live with me for the rest of my days, 45 game unbeaten run (45 consecutive games, not just counting the ones we didn't get pumped in like that mob across the city 
Baw hair from champions league final and winning the treble at the piggery.
Happy days 

We will be in Europe again but it has moved on massively and we will really just be making up the numbers like most of the small nations now. Tapie you are an arsehole

??

Graeme you are a nice guy but you really need to think up tactics on your own and not rely on this forum!

What effort have they made to progress the club??????
They have bought shares at a rock bottom price, will get their loans paid in shares at a rock bottom price. 
We still have a shambles of a retail dept, shirt sponsorship lower than Aberdeen and god knows what kind of shirt deal is coming. They haven’t advanced one revenue stream except the easy one and that’s charge us more. 
Managerial disaster after disaster with no end in sight  
So please spare me they are working their arse off for the club 

King will have final approval on the next manager as he's got the majority.
I just hope Allan has big involvement, as ideally he'll had a experienced manager lined up. The clowns on the board who recruited Pedro should have no input.
I fully expect Murty to be in charge until the end of the season regardless. If they do announce a new manager to boost season ticket renewals, expect he won't start until the summer.

right Dave is not conjuring up any finances. We have borrowed 3m to see the season out and he has been forced by a court to offer for more shares. He has stated should he buy a significant amount there will be a review of costs. At the end of the season about 4 loan players are up and at some point that duffer Pena who was subbed at half time at the weekend will roll back up. We are a huge distance away still and still probably a month away from finding out if King will have a larger stake and thus more of a say.

We have a good nucleus of a squad and a good academy set up at Auchenhowie in place. 
What we don’t have is leadership from the head coach, managing director or boardroom level. It’s just stumbling from one shambles to the next, and that’s after 4 years in charge. 
Not good enough. 

Of course he shouldn't have and i said at the time i didn't think it would end well as you would need to be blind to not see he was being hung out to dry by the board.
They have used his nice guy persona to buy them a little time as fans were reluctant to turn on him but inevitably they have, it's a shame because he will be lost to the club and the good work he had been doing at the academy with Mulholland will need someone else to carry it on.
Shambles of a situation and these 'fans groups' are nowhere to be seen, what's different between this and the time McDowell was left in charge? Also we finish the season with 5 loanees, like we did with the Newcastle lot, but the silence is deafening.

I said it after the Motherwell semi final after he complained about Cardoso getting smashed.
He came out at the start of the season saying he was tough etc along with Pedro’s shite about having a team of men but all I see is someone who moans when he gets kicked and he puts wee snide hits in after someone’s been called for offside or the ball is out.
A shitebag who once again got bullied today. 
I’d also add for someone who is meant to be experienced, his reading of a game is so poor. That’s something that if you have played at that level you never lose like Davie Weir or Richard Gough, even someone like Henning Berg who played well in a diabolical Rangers side.
But him and Martin got caught that many times in the first half with their striker playing in between them when all it takes is one to mark and one to cover.
