He chose to use the word in relation to Rangers because we suffered a liquidation event. If he didn't mention that in the context of what he was saying people watching would have instantly been sitting there thinking 'aye, and not just administration' and mhanks would have no doubt made implications about why he didn't mention it. As if he was trying to avoid the reality or something. 'He couldny say it cause he knows it means they're deed'. Some shit like that. Because obsessed take what they want to from these kinds of things. People know there was a liquidation event. Why shouldn't he say it? It's not a secret. The only issue is that he was lazy with his language in terms of club v business. It's up to you if you want to be sensitive about that, but I don't see why you would be.

Nah, I think that's MW that deserves that. Was linked with us before, and even a few fans on here rated him highly and wanted him as manager. The board are doing their job, let's not go over the top. MW deserves the praise, he was successful in his interview and has come up with the goods. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I still can't defend him taking the money he did for doing nothing. But that's only my opinion See it's that last sentence - taking the money for doing nothing that requires folk like me to comment ! It's a bollocks comment (imho of course) It's a different argument to say 'I don't think he was worth his contract' ( and yes I would defend him on that ) but he was trying his hardest ( and yes - again- it's a different argument if his best was good enough). And just a small - last ( ) point - we have. Ever heard Ally's side of any of this - I hoe one day we do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeanMK 4,670 Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Was the value of his contract and pay off ever confirmed? Or was it just stuff that was printed in the papers?

He was the manager of Rangers Football Club, earned £3m over 4 years, paid over £30m of salaries in that period and had a job of winning 3 leagues, 3 diddiest of diddy cups in the world and to do so he had to beat teams mainly made up of guys who worked 40 hour shifts per week and kicked a ball in their spare time. I agree with your defence of him around SCIAF but your defence of him as a manager is boak inducing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orange Persson 548 Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 McCoist is a nice guy. There is no badness in him. He has no real prejudice. That is no bad thing, as in life it is what gains respect in a secular society. Let others hate. At the end of the day, you have to ask who it is that hates Ally McCoist? Not his neighbours, not society in general, not the football world. I don't even know many sellic fans who hate him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh dear. You started with the below, trying to ridicule replies instead of engaging with them. 'Accept not everyone thinks like you'? So you're a hypocrite as well now? Maybe you should follow your own advice... 5 hours ago, Jack The Flipper said: Lol some replies, let's just make it look like he's saying this. Then we can win - yey! This tete-a-tete only started with my pointing out that the above argument dodgems was rubbish. Which it is. Until you started the ridicule instead of making a point tack, it was pretty normal forum disagreement that was going on. Pity you couldn't keep up and resorted to that. Actually, you came out with the 'McCoist fanboys' ridicule before that as well. What was it you said about 'just accept not everyone thinks like you' again?... Oops.

Nothing has been "liquidated" yet. And it may never happen. And you can't actually "liquidate" a football club. "We went through the trauma of administration but thankfully the club is now recovering and Mark and Davie are doing a tremendous job in getting the club back to where it belongs".
