Former Rangers player, John Brown, spoke to Sky Sports this morning outside Ibrox and launched a takeover bid for the former club’s assets. Yesterday he resigned as a scout for the company before urging Rangers fans not to renew their season tickets.
In an interview reminiscent of a memorable scene from Blazing Saddles, Brown told Sky:
“If [the fans]invest, we’ll setup a bank account that all the season ticket money can go in there, and we can guarantee that we will buy this club over from this regime because it’s coming back into Rangers hands.
“Gone are the days, of the, the money that we spent. It’s going to be handled differently this time. The fans are going to buy it over. We have the backing from powerful people who are going to invest, but the fans will invest, and they’ll offer Charles Green, if he says he’s got the title deeds in his name, we’ll make an offer, once we see the hidden letters, any deeds that have been done in the past, if there’s any stumbling blocks, where’s Ticketus in all this, we’ll deal with that, once we see the title deeds, of this stadium, that I was proud to play for, in a number of years through nine-in-a-row, and we’re going to get our club back, but we need a bit of honesty from Charles Green.”
Reports that after hearing Brown, Charlie Nicholas is worried for his analyst position with the broadcaster, have not been confirmed.

A Rangers for every competition that they’re ineligible for. (thumbsup)
So who would put money on Craig Whyte still making money out of all of this?
Memo to Scottish football: just say no to the lot of them. All of them. Anything with Sevco, Rangers or RFC in the name.
Did the legneds of Rangers go on the same training course as the captain of the Costa Concordia? (thumbsup)

Meanwhile in Monaco wee Craigy boy chews on his Martini soaked olive.Looks across the pool to his burd and shouts Hey Jim fancy a KFC ?
So we now have 4 “Rangers”:
Rangers FC Plc (In Administration) – The originals who now own nothing but a share in SPL;
Sevco 5088 Ltd – Wanting to be renamed The Rangers Football Club. Have 3 players and very little else;
Sevco Scotland Ltd – Own deeds to Ibrox, Murray Park and Albion Car Park;
RFC 2012 Ltd – Unknown what they own but most likely nothing.
Who do the “Rangers” supporters support now?

Right this is bonkers for all us mere mortals with all thats going on
But imagine your a demented hun (its easy if you try)

Lmao – nice one :-)
Watching the peeple get lairy
It’s not very pretty I tell thee
Walking through town is quite scary
It’s not very sensible either
A friend of a friend he got beaten
He looked the wrong way at a policeman
Would never of happened to John Smeaton
A true blue weedgie
I predict a riot
I predict a riot
I predict a riot
I predict a riot
I tried to get to my taxi
The men in the tracksuits attacks me
He said that he saw it before me
And wants to get things a bit gory
Girls scrabble round with no clothes on
To borrow a pound for a condom
If it wasn’t for chip fat they’d be frozen
they’re not very sensible
I predict a riot
I predict a riot
I predict a riot
I predict a riot
And if there’s anybody left in here
That doesn’t want to be out there
Watching the people get lairy
It’s not very pretty I tell thee
Walking through town is quite scary
It’s not very sensible
I predict a riot

That doesn’t want to be out there

So does this mean Craigy Whyte will indeed be Rangers saviour?
Or will he just fleece them for a few more bucks?
I know what my money’s on.
Only one show in town. Yet again Paul67 calls it right and first.
Apparently they’ve just found out ole Craig Whytes still the owner
*they close to eating their own knees*

Oh dear.
Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.
And once more with feeling-
Oh dear.
This news about the hiving off of Ibrox and Murray Park has a real whiff about it. I am sure that Mark Daly is already preparing his follow-up to the Men Who Sold the Jerseys. Could this be the fraud at Ibrox park which we have been told has yet to come out?
Oh, and if there are any bears looking in just now – yes, you have been taken well and truly as fools. Your compliant press pack have done a marvellous job at covering ole Craig Whyte’s tracks just long enough to let him get away with his little plan. What goes around………..
Mort – i can imagine a wee guy in a sweatshop in Singapore trying to keep up wi’ all the name changes and swearing profusey –

What like the floating charge hasn’t just disappeared in a puff of smoke?
Really?
Who’d have thunk it?
And the strange dust
Lands on your hands.
I always thought that referred to radioactive waste, but now it obviously means asbestos.

ernie lynch – Craig Whyte doesn’t do walking away. (thumbsup)
May I also give a nod to Barcabhoy who has made some “nuclear” predictions recently.
I do not know if this is the type of thing he had in mind.
However, with each day that goes by, the criticality increases.
I have to admit that I will not be looking my best on the beach this summer….
This jelly n ice cream diet since Feb 14th has played havoc on my beer belly…. or cider, guinness etc etc…
I just can’t get enough….
Green Lantern (((((0))))) – The Smiths were so prescient:
There’s a club if you’d like to go
You could meet somebody who really loves you
So you go and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own
And you go home and you cry
And you want to die
When you say it’s gonna happen “now”
Well when exactly do you mean?
See I’ve already waited too long
And all my hope is gone
(thumbsup)
This really is like the greatest movie you’ve never seen,and then you find it,and it’s even better than you ever imagined.
