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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had heard there's a few that don't like Halliday before but Kiernan was never really mentioned. I was told Windass has no time for him at all but it's all rumours.

saltire266 502 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Reading a comment on the story in the Scotsman comments section. Looks like Warburton was a sitting duck between the board and his agent. Something is deffo adrift with this.

docspiderman 1,260 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 So the story is that the agent told Warburton and Weir that they had a good chance to take over at a club run by shady loopy owner who sacks their managers every couple of months. They tell him they want to be put forward for this dream job and tell him to negotiate an exit from Rangers before any offer. .????? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easton82 44 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 This is totally embarassing haven't us Rangers fans went through enough in recent years already? We seem unable to do anything right. How long does it take for the club to come out and make a statement or are they happy enough for everyone to be taking the piss out of our club? When the hell are we ever going to return to a bit of normality? docspiderman 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The deal with the other club has fell but we've accepted the original resignation. The benefit of having an extra 48 hours they've surely checked themail legality of it all....or is this wishful thinking? As it stands, from what we know, I think the board have played an absolute blinder in this regard, the trio shouldn't be allowed anywhere near our club if they've been sniffing around Forrest I'm not so confident - The fact the official announcement of the resignation sets out a sequence of events including a change of mind by warbs says to me that this is not clear cut. If it was clear cut, Rangers would simply have said one line that they have accepted resignation letter and we wish them well. Also an employment lawyer will be having heart failure at the part saying we are not where we would want to be at the moment which hints that the board wanted to oust them for performance ignoring the 'resignation' the key is whether they have a letter of resignation. I've never had an employment contract that didn't require resignation in writing and so a conversation with an agent on Wednesday won't count for anything in court.

JM1872 3,776 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 10 minutes ago, left winger said: You'd think so. But, there's a wee nagging doubt in my mind that they might have fucked up somewhere. This is my concern mate. I've got a Scots Law book at home but no access just now so just looked up resignation law on the internet and and both said that resignation can be legally binding both written and verbally (but its better in writing as there is a record of it) and that once it has been made it can't be withdrawn unless management agree to it. It also said that the resigning member should have it in his/her contract whether any offer needs to be in writing or can be done verbally. You'd honestly think, in any walk of life, that this would be a straight forward water tight situation. This is Rangers FC however, nothing is ever straight forward and water tight.

Ger_onimo 20,488 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 I posted this in another thread but should be in this one. Here's what I think happened: Board were wanting rid of him but couldn't afford it. They then get an approach from Notts Forest asking to speak to him. They can't believe their luck, give him permission to go down and talk to them. In the meantime they're already talking about (or even to) his replacement, assuming he's gone. But Forest don't offer him the job and he comes back. They've already put the wheels in motion for replacing him and try to make out he's resigned and can't come back. Sadly this version would not look good for us, but it's the only one which makes sense to me. Why would he resign before being interviewed? Doesn't make sense.
