Blogging on the move right now but want to pass comment on one part of the statement by Aberdeen chairman, Stewart Milne. As he confirmed his club would place the fifth and decisive vote against Sevco being allowed access to the SPL next season he said:
“Reorganisation of the game is a priority and is something we have been actively involved in for a long time, but it is not something that should be rushed through just to deal specifically with one club.
“As we have indicated there are a number of other areas that we feel need to be addressed openly in the coming period if Scottish football fans are to feel that their views have been properly taken into account.”
Those well-paid executives who work for us and on Friday met to discuss a way to reorganise the league structure in the next couple of weeks should pay heed. As Mr Milne suggests, we are the game, not you.

Fair play to those SPL clubs who declared how they would vote on Rangers Newco BEFORE the outcome was clear. The rest? Bunch of bedwetters.

Chic young will not be renewing his contract with the BBC next season
So do Dunfermline come back in or do Dundee have a claim? Or a two-legged play-off to decide.

Bloody brilliant thanks for sharing that with us.

Just heard him – kind of reminded me of a pitch on Dragon’s Den:
“Daw’ ell – Daw’ ell – Daw’ ell you have; no plan, no substance, no projections – and for that reason I’m out (and so are the other SPL chairmen)!
HilaryDvayCSC (in a butch voice).
So what exactly did Dawwyll say?
Did he tell us about the time he sat on a story until Rangers won a league (under questionable circumstances?
OR
Did he explain who told him about 2 contracts?
Only in this silly wee bigoted country would someone like King be so high profile.The man is a complete ARSE
Lifted from an RTC poster sorry if posted

Let’s revisit a gem from Scotland’s journalistic oracle Jim Traytor :
“It does not matter what fans say on social media. Football clubs do not listen to fans,they listen to Bank Managers and they will be telling them that they have to vote Rangers into the SPL”.

Excellent source: Police believe they have enough evidence to arrest three people involved in RFC 2011 takeover.
Apologies if I’ve missed a comment, been off the blog all day. Missed sooooo much fun, by the look of it.
Chic- Chucked oot?
Who’s next?
Traynor – Transported?
dave ross @daveross67
When you go will you send back a letter from East Stirlingshire ? Take a look up the railtrack from Annan to Alloa . #RFC
I would like to retract what I just said about King.He is not a complete arse,he is a cheek of an arse and Traynor is the other cheek.

King – Dethroned?
Sounds of the 70s on BBC2 is magic.
shirley we need to be turning our attention on the sfa and the need for the juducial review panel to investigatre why the sfa missed so many irregularities over such a sustained period.
From shallow shallow.
So ibrox is being sold for property development, Walter smiths consortium is gonna make a new bid, SFL will reject our application, Southampton tickets on sale, club becoming extinct….. Does anyone know *** what is going on this is doing my head in……

I’ll tell you 1 thing Green wont have £30 million in Rangers account by end of July
—————————————————————————-
it is rather confusing

After a lot of thought, and taking on board all your queries………. ……………………………………… Nope we’re as clueless as you!

Count me in
Not a clue whats going on, this place seems to have taken a dark turn tonight
Not good!

Ibrox is a listed building, they would struggle to get permission for anything there.
Also they would have to take it from my cold dead hands.

Every single day brings more bad news,nobody from anywhere fighting our corner,con men,crooks and asset strippers raping our club with impunity,what a dirty horrible country we live in.

You’ll not believe this but there are people on here and elsewhere on the Timternet who keep kicking x-Rangers when they are down. Poor show all round I think.
Unbecoming.

I can’t help but feel that “Alistair” McCoist has placed himself between a rock and a hard place.
His grandstanding of a few months back – “we don’t do walking away” – has put him in a very difficult position.
Rangers have been liquidated. The fans are not buying season tickets for SevCo FC. And now the players are starting to walk.
Fact is, most observers see Green as another asset stripper with his own interests (and that of his murky backers) first and foremost ahead of that of SevCo FC.
“Alistair” therefore, heading up SevCo, will rightly be seen by some as backing the murky regime.
By staying, he may now be seen by his own support as a lame duck. A patsy.
By going, he contradicts his own statement about not walking away. And be subject to ridicule.
A rock and a hard place.
Couldn’t happen to a nicer happy chappy.
gordybhoy64, that was the plan when they broke for holiday on Friday night. Pleased to hear from Stewart Milne today.
Too early to be complacent.
Bloke 109, “Slade”, like it!
MWD, them’s the breaks.
You know we can quite clearly see that they are very reticent about their situation. It doesn’t matter if you get a brown bag or bragging rights. From top to bottom side to side they are unable to be contrite at any time. This is their failure. Their Achilles heel. This us why the tartan army have given the thumbs down. That the MSM who have manipulated them magnificently over the last two decades. Missed a trick. They needed to change tactic but are unable too. They genuinely misunderstood Darwin.
HH
Oh Mr Green, having difficulty finding your elusive backers, just when you really need them?
Maybe trying to get some more at the 11th hour, just as everything is on the point of collapse?
Maybe a bit closer to home?
Maybe a sign that it’s all just a little bit desperate you say?
Maybes aye, and maybes aye
Dawwyl King sports editor of evening times hurting big time on talksport ; his sidekick at the times Matthew Lindsay lashing out on twitter ; RTC just skelped the “partial hack” with a quick retort.
The Evening Times is no more than a glorified rag written by failed former RFC hacks. At least BRoadfoot was clever enough to escape to the SFA unlike these 2 clowns.
Stupid Huns.
Wonky radar
was that your interesting post on the philosophy of art, and the realtionship between Christianity and art, earlier on today?
If so that was an interesting read and some good points for debate.
The conversion of Constantine had a great baring on all subsequent forms of Christian Worship and literally moved Christianity on from being an “underground movement” especially in the Roman Empire.
The persecutions, which had really taken hold under Nero following the great fire of Rome, peaked under the dreadful Diocletion- though it would be hard to be more dispicable than Nero right enough who burnt the odd Christian to create light in his Gardens. Constantine’s conversion paved the way for the Christian community to come out of the underground catacombs, and for the art that was to be found thus far in the catacombs to gain greater acceptance among the general populace christian or not.
By the time we get to the Renaissance, the theme for the majority of art was very much based around Christianity and the scriptures– especially in Italy where the patronage of Bishops, Cardinals and Popes was hugely sought after and jealously guarded.
There were still periods when this was not so prevalent of course, such as during the Spanish Inquisition of Fra Savonarola, when it was just not a good time to be an artist ( in Florence anyway ) as the mad man was for burning books, paintings and anything else he felt was sacriligeous.
Michelangelo, who you mentioned, was of course branded the “inventor of obscenities” for paiting those huge human figures in all their nudity, and resisted all suggestions that he should cover up “The Pork Things” in his paintings and sculptures– and it was not until after his death that anyone dared interfere with the great man’s work in this regard.
Though it must have been obvious to all that Michelangelo’s art showed a deep faith, and later Gian Lorenzo Bernini was obviously a man of deep seated religeous conviction which showed in his art work.
Pope Innocent X ( Innocent the Screamer ) also had a purist fit or two, closing theatres for fear that they would corrupt the morals, and ordering the delicate covering up of “the pork things” in both sculptures and paintings in furtherence of the proclamations of the Council of Trent on such things.
But by that time Christianity and art were hand in hand, often producing some nice touches of comedy– including the artist Guido Reni’s painting of the Archangel Gabriel trampling on satan– whose facial appearance just happened to be very like those of the then Cardinal Pamphillij– before he became Pope Innocent !!
To be fair, Innocent let the painting be— but he didn’t give our Guido much by way of Papal patronage– religeon or no religeon.
