Blame the fans that used logic and and that were not easily mislead like sheep by King and a bunch of "fans representatives" all you want... at the end of the day, you're the one withholding the money the club has relied on for years... you're the cause. I couldn't give a shit if you want to try and spin it and blame a board that's been in power for a matter of months, at the end of the day, the finger still points to you and the others intent on bringing the club to its knees!

Another frustrating half of football yet again. Starting to wonder why I'm paying $10 per game for this garbage, more entertaining watching the local University team play.

Peralta's been one of our better players today as has Aird who people love to make a scapegoat.

Said it elsewhere that when players become undroppable so does their desire and form.
It also means there is little point keeping players like Crawford, McAusland and Gasparotto if they cannot get a game in place of those not delivering the goods.
What he should be doing is picking a team to exploit the weaknesses in the United team and not focusing solely on stopping their strengths. If he thinks playing Daly on his own and isolated is the way to win a match he's a bigger clown than i first thought.
It didn't work against Raith and it certainly won't work against United.
He has options to change it but won't tinker too much outside his comfort zone.

Daly worked so well as a focal point at Dundee Utd because guys like Armstrong, Goodwillie, GMS & Russell got close to him and played off of him.
With us he's isolated on his own upfront with nobody within 10 yards of him and he has no pace to stretch any defences by playing the long balls into the channel either.
He's like playing with a man down, but it's not entirely his fault.

That will have the season tickets flying off the shelves eh!
Close your eyes Lee Wallace and remember the buzz of scoring against the mhanks at Ibrox, that feeling will never be topped anywhere else.
Btw Wallace is a much better player than Alan Hutton,£9m he was sold for.

how ironic that we are told that politics have no place in football yet they want someone who is deemed by some to have been a "political prisoner" applauded. Can the SPFL get even fucking dumber???

When you add up, Football debt, IPO expenses, Investigation expenses, acquisition expenses, Charles Greens money, Ahmads money, set up loans and our managers justified pay cut, the non recurring expenses are close to £6m.
Turnover should be higher given that we will have a full 12 months sponsorship from Puma, Blackthorn and Sports Direct as some of these deals were done as late as March 2013. The £14m gap could easily be down to £4m this season and as Boss has said, we can be working towards that being £0 for 2014-15
I said it wouldnt be easy reading these as there is a lot of shite in them that wont repeat itself but by taking the step of declaring the amount of matchday money included in our cash balance allows us to look ahead and clearly see that Dave King, the RST and all the other doom mongers who said we would be bust by xmas are looking like a total bunch of wanks.
I see the RST are out peddling dhim like nonsense because they simply cannot handle the truth of what the accounts show.
To summarise my view though:
1) Nothing I really didnt expect.
2) Healthy cash position explained.
3) Clear cost reduction opportunities.
4) Certain directors took the piss but in the main, they are now gone.
5) No wonder our manager is volunteering a pay cut. He should be embarrassed.
6) Auditors have signed off as a going concern (This is what Whyte failed to get auditors to do months before we went into admin)
7) There is no way we will run out of money this season.
8) Still a lot of work to be done on other costs and the jury is still out for me if we have the right people to do it.
9) Paul Murray can fukk off

I didn't doubt that happening for a second mate.I was waiting on Boss, he is my man in the know when it comes to financial matters.
If he is telling me we are not going bust, we own Ibrox and are solvent for the forseable future then I am happy at that.

to those that are saying costs are too high for the 3rd division etc. come on! do you really want us to move out of a 5 star stadium, make all players part-time and bring in a low league manager, reduce facilities and only cater for 2-300 fans every week?
Rangers are not a 3rd division club, we are on the road back with massive rebuilding to be done while maintaining facilities that are the best in the country, it takes money to operate for 40-50,000 fans turning up every other week. Also, on the non-playing staff wages, CG made a very strong point of not sacking anyone last year as in another 2 years time we would need to re-employ people for that job, accepting the increased cost to the company in the mean time.
Sure, the accounts could be better but there was always going to be a period of losses. From June 2013 onwards we will have TV revenue, sponsorship, retail income and more to be added to the revenue. All in all we are not in a bad position.

BREAKING NEWS JUST IN
Minico memebers, RST members along with certain other individuals spotted acting crazy

We need to do two more things to move forward
1 Half the wages of Ally and his 2 sidekicks
2 Dispense with ANY board bonuses until we get in to the top division
Job done

For me this puts me off the fence and behind the current board. When you take the one off costs and costs of things like getting rid of bocanegra etc, then couple that with coaching staff agreeing to wage cuts that have been widely publicised. I dont think we are in bad shape at all, in fact we are within the 5 year plan that we were told about.
In terms of directors wages and non playing staff, the shareholders at the AGM has the ability to do something about this if the wish.
Well done

I`d ban all the instigators from Ibrox. And they can`t come out with the "I was just looking out for the club I love" pish as they were just telling lies to de-stable the club. Some life time bans for furry / dingwall ( that that it would matter to him ) / leggo / mini. Then after that start getting into the vermin mhedia that have been mini`s useful tools. keech jackson / britney / english etc. more life time bans. They need us and we don`t need them.

Maybe the mole didn't leak them because it was good news
Meaning the mole is in minis camp, which would coincide with the pist on followfollow we seen about a month ago

I've just come over the Erskine Bridge - you should see the queue
The Sons of Struth are at the front, followed by 3 names, Furry, Greenslade, the RST, the goon brigade, the UB's, the Assembly and Spiers
The Samaritans have drafted people in from all over Scotland
Fuck going 'doon the water' on The Waverley today
Edit - there goes Delightful Dennis as well

A dude on his period?

A few points for the Frenchman, thon BBC Scotland reporter is given credence because she asked Christopher on twitter and he never disputed the fact. Following on from giving interviews to the Rhebel not long after tweeting for bears to boycott, his BBC payments show exactly what he is about. They are fucking scum, its bad enough both sides if the power struggle assist them without our fans spokespeople.
Re D'artagnan, even when he is subjected to nonsense from the handwringers he is still polite and forthcoming. The thing that impresses me most about D'artagnan though is every single piece he has scribed has been his own thoughts without pushing someone else's agenda. D'artagnan is far and away the best blogger in our ranks, with superlatives constantly lauded on him yet never has it went to his head nor changed his ways.
Complaining to Mods though lol, my old man would kick the cunt out of me for being a tell tale.

ED brought more to the board than Fury ever did. To be honest his knowledge of Rangers history, and some of his tales about the club were fantastic.

This.
He was viewed very positively in the early days by most including me.
There seems to have been a watershed moment when he moved firmly into the RST/FF/Dingwall camp and became little more than a mouthpiece for them. That's when he lost the respect of his detractors.

I said a few games into the season that we were in danger of missing an opportunity to change our whole style of football and now half way through we appear to be going backwards.
Our tactics,fitness and style of football are pure and utter shit and that is in the main down to the coaching staff. Simply not good enough for our great club.

I hope that was a tongue-in-cheek bit of well-wishing there ED....this guy (if he's telling the truth) will, along with the other scabs, be going against the wishes of the club he purports to support.
It can't be any clearer - CEO Charles Green, backed by the Rangers Board, backed by manager Ally McCoist and backed by the official supporters groups have all said "DO NOT GO!"
The whole lot of these selfish-bastards should be ashamed of themselves.

Turning the other cheek over the years is what is causing us so many problems now ... it's a shame that people like you interpret standing up for ourselves as bitterness

Yes and it's my right to say you're a scab for putting money into thomson's pocket
