Okay well that makes my continued posting on this site untenable, so this is the final one. But it doesn't change what I've said about our club since coming here; that we are losing money and continuing to wish for 'investment' is just a pipe dream. Lean years, which should have started in 2012, are now being forced on us. Now is the time to really pull together and support the board because Plan B is a Grimm fairy tale that has Mike Ashley on the final page.

Okay, probably best to leave our discussion there I think

Well I don't call people names, Lloyd. I call a situation like it seems to me, for better or worse. But if you want to point out where you disagree with my post, and any alternative solutions, I'm all ears.

The tims are financially over the horizon. There is no 'chase' - even £20 million (fees + wages) probably wouldn't guarantee a serious title challenge much less Champions League money. So why gamble/waste £20 million if there's no possible return? There's no chance the new manager will get any significant money, not while they're strong and have rodgers in charge, it would just be chucking money away. If King et al DO have money then they'll wait until the odds are a bit better; until then we'll be operating on a shoestring (relative to celtic) and aiming to consolidate second place and financial stability. Any new manager/DoF will know this.

Pearls of wisdom. Thank you.

Thanks for your insights

I don't think there's any need for that

I think you've misunderstood my argument. In any case, I don't think we're going to agree, so I'll leave it there

Pfff...not a clue. If we need more director loans, and there's a payout due to previous management team, then I'm really not sure the board will sanction money for a big name manager before season ticket renewal

Agreed. Yes I think anxiety and not feeling supported plays a huge part in sporting performance and no player is immune from that nomatter what level they play at.

Yes that'll work

Definitely. Do you think Dave King will get one in this season?

Your welcome, Hilly. I just see the forum as part of the overall experience of supporting Rangers. I understand the hurt and anger but absolutely don't see how transmitting that to the players (I think they might read, or hear about, comments from various forums) will help them and us. There are no positives to highlight right now. There are no other players to put on the pitch. There is no new great manager coming in. There is no money. There's only the players we have and if we criticise them they'll get worse, not better. So my positivity comes (partly) from knowing there's no other option, we either get behind those players or we're fucked. If you have an alternative plan, I'd love to hear it.

It's certainly not the name I thought I'd typed
