We keep getting told we dont have money to offer any players extended/improved deals but what about the money on offer to Boyd? Would the majority of supporters have been happy to see this money offered to Thomson or do previous injuries mean maybe we were right not to offer a new improved deal and the £2 suited rangers in more ways than one? Also what about KB getting new 3 year deal? I realise he wouldnt have been offered £15000plus but it was an improved deal and could this money not have been better spent? Surely rangers must be looking at Davis, Mcgregor(not sure if final year or 2 to go?) and even Miller and give these lads decent new deals. I know were in the sh1t but there seems no logic in what the banks are doing.

Can someone explain to me what has changed since we were repeatedly told that we only need to pay back £1m a year on the money borrowed? The chairman told us this again not so long ago. I may be alone but i thought we were on a slightly better footing with the bank and that there had been an ever so slight relaxation in the purse strings? Debt levels of between 25-30 million with champions league money to follow. Doesnt seem too perilious surely? Wage bill greatly reduced yet we cant find any new players or even more alarmingly, money to offer new deals to the few decent players we have within the squad! I know there are obviously alot of factors that determine what the club can and cannot do at this time but you couldnt make up the way the party line changes from month to month!

Got my lad the new shirt delivered today with name and number. Looks fantastic. I usually think, just put sponsor on kids shirt as they want to look the same but this year i reckon it looks better without.

Apologies if this his been brought up before. I dont have the greatest of memories for fixtures, scores etc and only dip in here when i can but see during all this constant garbage about favouring the Queens 11. I've not heard anyone reply on the phone ins etc mentioning the amount of dodgy decisions that went for that mhob a couple of seasons back. Am i not right in saying that in their last 5 or so fixtures they were more or less handed the points?

Exactly what i was thinking. So out of order bringing up an incident from last season. He should be pulled up for that. I usually find Provan not too bad but his commentary on Sky today was anything but impartial!

Was in a shop the other day looking for a pair of trainers for my boy. The wife picked up these green and white numbers. My boy says, "muuuuum they're green and white". I then said " aye they are, no chance". The wife says " see yous pair, that's terrible". Woman next to us pipes up"no i agree". Hahah.

Ain't that the truth!

He always thinks he knows best on the phone in. Talks down to callers all the time! As for that laugh of his, what's going on there?

Hopefully June 2010 will show no debt as the new owner(s) will have cleared it all. At first glance there is nothing to drastic about it but why so big a drop in turnover? £20m+ drop since last year! We were not in Europe. What about us always being told the money men did not budget for European money coming in?

Just wondered if it would be possible to mount a legal challenge against Uefa for any punishment received tomorrow? I just dont understand how the club can be punished for the actions of others they do not employ. Regardless of what or who was to blame for the more recent incidents that have happened. If the club are doing all the can to make sure their fans are advised on what is acceptable behaviour, then they have done all they can. Does anyone know if any club have ever challenged any punishments dished out for fans behaviour?

I reckon we will only loose one of our best players come January, if that. Things will sort themselves out and we'll get back on track and continue to be the first class football institution that we are!

I realise Walter's reign is splitting the support but what his detractors can't deny, is that the man is blue through and through, loves the club just like the rest of us, carries himself with great dignity and is first class in dealing with the media. I know we can all question buys, team selections, tactics etc, but the man is dragging the club through chaotic times showing great composure. For me the man is and always will be a Rangers great.

Got to admit i'm not great where football club finances are involved but can someone explain to me how the likes of Man utd can have debts of £700m and seem to cope well enough. Is this purely down to their fan base and wealth of their investors? Cant be Sky and champions league money alone that services the debt. I realise the SPL is on a different planet than the EPL but i cant get my head around how we are in such a state with the level of debt we keep hearing banded around. Current debt level is around half what it was a few years back and we have the money from europe to come. I realise that wont show in the next accounts but it's coming none the less. Cant all be the credit crunch. I did note however that Liverpool could be in difficulty with their debt. Could the bubble be bursting down south as some have been predicting for some time?

Just watched the chance Hamilton had to go 2-2 with that mob. In on the keeper and shoots straight at him. Mcarthur i think it was! Should have been another 2 dropped. Apparently it was a bit of struggle for them.
