That's exactly what I think has happened. I think that may even be why Warbs + Weir didn't get the Forrest job, and I think the board realized they'd shot themselves in the foot and would need to pay them off. Hence the ridiculous delay in announcing their resignation. A knee jerk reaction by King when faced with the realization that he would be faced with finding £1.2m to pay them off. As ever, no class and embarrassing as fuck.

Well that kinda ruins all the fantasy timelines in this thread eh!!!

Dave thought Paul was doing it, and Paul though Dave had it covered. Just an innocent mix up surely

Fuckin laughable that so many people would be so prepared to watch our club go down the shitter rather than admit they were wrong about this lying cunt. Given all the shite, lies and goalposts he's moved since taking over, they still believe everything he spouts without question. We'll never chase this dud of a chairman and his merry band or failures.

Exactly. Possibly because our board refused to forfeit the compensation, Forrest refused to pay it. Has King realized he's shot himself in the foot and would then have to PAY OUT to get them off the books?

Spot on.

Agree 100%.

Lets hope we don't hear from that lot and we can guess exactly what the other lot will say.

Bomber/Nacho dream team

Its August 2017 that will be the problem. Do you really think RDB/FDB or anyone of that stature will believe a word of what King tells them when they ask how much cash will I have to rebuild the team? Or even take the job if King is honest and says there is no transfer budget. Were gonny end up with a dud. IMO.

You really think that? Whoever replaces This team will not be anyone on the up, It will be someone who cant get a job or carry's baggage. Time will tell.

It may or may not be the case, but its more believable than Warburton and Weir handing in their notice before they have confirmation of getting the job at Forrest. Also, I think Dave King would think twice about stooping as low. He isn't exactly an honest and honorable businessman ffs.

I reckon that the board either ignored or turned down a request to go without compensation because they thought that Forrest would pay it. That may have caused the management team the job, with Forrest saying they wont pay Rangers compensation for a manager they want rid off. Board then panics, realizing they are going to have to PAY the trio to go, and use the initial request as a reason to get them out. Dave King, as we all know is well capable of being the kind of snake who would try this, and if that's whats happened It really wouldn't surprise me. Under this board and Kings leadership we have become a fuckin laughing stock. Who the fuck would ever come and work for us now?

Yep, Incompetent crooks and compulsive liars.

Surely that can be easilly avoided though. Board just need to produce the three resignation letters to their friends in the media.. Somehow, I dont think that will happen soon. Do we have any fuckin dignity left under this board?

Club website on the verge of crashing. Heres the statement. RANGERS has accepted the resignations of manager Mark Warburton, assistant manager David Weir and the Club’s head of recruitment Frank McParland. At a meeting with the management team’s representative earlier this week the Club were advised that Mr Warburton, Mr Weir and Mr McParland wished to resign their positions and leave the Club on condition that Rangers agreed to waive its rights to substantial compensation. Rangers’ agreement to waive compensation would assist the management team to join another club. This compensation amount was agreed when Rangers significantly improved Mr Warburton and Mr Weir’s financial arrangements before the start of this season. The Board urgently convened to consider the offer made on behalf of the management team and its ramifications and agreed to accept it and release the trio from the burden of compensation, despite the potential financial cost to the Club. It is important that Rangers has a football management team that wants to be at the Club and that the Board believes can take the Club forward to meet our stated ambition to return to being the number one Club in Scotland. We are clearly short of where we expected to be at this time. The representative acting for the management team subsequently attempted to alter the terms of what had been agreed in favour of the management team. A further Board meeting was held this afternoon to discuss this and it was decided not to agree to this additional request but to hold with the original agreement. Mr Warburton, Mr Weir, and Mr McParland have therefore been notified in writing that their notices of termination have been accepted. The Board is very appreciative of the good work previously done by the management team but believes it had no alternative. Our Club must come first and absolute commitment is essential. On Sunday Under-20s coach Graeme Murty will take interim charge of the team. We know our support will give him and our team their full backing. We thank our support for their loyalty and desire to be the best.

graham murty is his replacement for sunday. fuck off king you cunt

King and Murray would be as well getting tae fuck right now tae, coz were in for a disappointment with whoever that pair can attract.

Second prize. If we'd beat them it would have been a kawasaki.

That will have cost his club a grand. Hope Magoo gets it in the neck from the Motherwell board for the blatant waste of money.

Darkie Johnson???

What will happen to you when the Bomber and Nacho dream team is unveiled?

This will happen imo. Not as an organized protest but we wont come close to selling the same amount of season books as this year. The fans have been dupes, lied to and treated like fools by King, and all those complicit in getting him in control. He really should cut his losses and find us someone to sell his shares to who WILL invest the initial outlay required to get us back on top.

If he goes now, how do we pay him off when King wont spend a fuckin penny? Who replaces him? You can be sure, Rangers next manager, under this board will be nobody of note. No manager on the up would work under King and this board. Prepare yerself for Bomber.

Halliday clearly called for the ball, and had all the time in the world to control it. He took his eye off it and let it roll past him. Fuckin dud.
