‘Don’t ask question you don’t know the answer to’; great advice. Mike Ashley will know the questions he’s proposed for Rangers International. All the bluster around the company failing to get a Nomad due to the litany of complaints submitted to AIM under the old regime will be laid bare. Allegations of blame made in haste will be revisited in detail. It was an act of outrageous folly to attempt to play poker with a billionaire.
It is perfectly possible that Ashley will get his £5m loan repaid, the assets connected to it are so enormous, we should assume the money will be found. I hope it is. I hope the new regime gain all of their assets back from Ashley as soon as possible.
Ashley is one of the last men I would want owning my football club, but he is vastly more capable than those currently in notional charge.
The Machiavellian method – get the board to vote to return your money, or watch them vote to keep you on-side, is a thing of beauty.
Good luck to King, I hope he has the money and wins as much control as he needs.

Stefan is getting into the winning habit. Hopefully many winners medals to follow.

I haven’t seen Pirlo this season. But thought he was looking a bit leg weary and the laser sights for the passes were slightly awry in both ties.
Fair comment Sir?

Renewed SB on Monday for me and my youngest
Had email this morning thanking us.
But asked if we want to join Home tkt scheme ????
(no reply email)
Was in it last yeat I thought default was unless i stated
NO then would continue in it.
Thanks in advance away for morning meetings not
about for a while.
Morning all.
Beautiful day, weather-wise. Any “beautiful” news emanating from Ibrox? Radio Scotland were rushing to Doncaster’s aid this morning. The sponsorship is massive, according to them. What world do these folk inhabit?

Well it is twice linekar’s salary.
But less than a third of Rooney’s (Wayne not Adam!)

Update from FAC campaign.
Representatives of FAC continued today with the latest of a series of meetings with representatives/leaders of all the main political parties in the parliament. We have so far met with the Leader of the Scottish Greens, Patrick Harvie and today (13/5/15) we met with the Scottish Liberal Democrat MSP and Justice Committee member Alison McInnes and the Scottish Conservative and Justice Committee member Margaret Mitchell. In addition we had a brief informal meeting with Siobhán McMahon of Scottish Labour. We will meet with the leader of Scottish Labour this Friday and we will meet with the Community Safety and Legal Affairs Minister, Paul Wheelhouse next week.
Our aim in this series of meetings is to seek clarity on the process of the review and to strongly urge the politicians to give us the opportunity to provide evidence to them when they consider this important issue. As the only group who have consistently campaigned on this issue we have a breadth and depth of knowledge on the impact of this hated legislation on ordinary young football supporters which cannot easily be obtained from any other source. If you are meeting with your MSP to discuss the act then please emphasise this point to them and urge them to ensure that there is an opportunity for this information to be conveyed before any decision is made.
In the meantime the numbers signing the online and the paper petitions continue to rise. If you haven’t signed it yet then please do so soon and encourage as many people as you can to do the same:
Train draws gradually into station, that awkward moment when dozens of Ruglonians hopelessly misjudge where the door will eventually stop.

james gang @ 7 35..
Fair comment ? Yes ..
The Final..? Barca should win it but if Rube do , I hope the winner is a Pirlo free kick. ( awarded for a real thing foul )
The Daily Mail is reporting this morning that oldco were paid £12m for Shota Averladzi, but declared only £2m ……. What happened to the £10m which wasn’t reported in their accounts
Serious Fraud / Corruption …… !!??
SoT
Agree. I like top guys to have won the top prize at least once eg lendl and Wimbledon.
Pirlo and Buffon deserve that accolade. I suspect they won’t get it versus Barca. Will be a fascinating contest of the mind and styles.
Warm in Gla today. At least 10 degrees (celcius not Fahrenheit!)

Was it not the other way round, did they not pay that for him? Far easier to hide the difference in the accounts in that direction with amortisation, I’d have thought.

Just passing through…..
The FAC thingy…..The ‘statement’ in the Herald thingy….
Why is it always the fans who have to deal with the ‘issues’….?
The fans dont carry the same clout as the Celtic board FACT.
The Celtic Boards ‘customers’ are being dumped on….from way up high.
It’s time for the Celtic Board to take a leaf from big Mikes book and, get the cards onto the table, empty the can of worms oot for the world to see, like they should have done after the ‘shame-game’….stop being the invisibles.
Until the Celtic Board, drag Scotlands little secret onto the world-stage then, I’m afraid that peashooter meetings, petitions, lists…etc….amount to hee-haw.
Get a financial gun to the boards head-get them into the ring-make them fight yer battles-that’s what their there for-innit….?
Yeez are the best fans in the world but, yeez are treated like doormats who’ll sit at the back of the bus.
Yer immediate problem is – the club that yeez plough countless £millions into – don’t respect yeez – only yooz can change that – lists and meetings wont – imho
Bring back the Jungle and, you’ll bring back the Sellic.
Till then….rip up the lists – cancel the mmetings and, get oot a giant bed-sheet, preferably a big white wan and get atin of green paint and, scrawl the words – “CELTIC BOARD – FIGHT OUR BATTLE’s OR, WE’LL KEEP OUR MONEY AND GIVE IT TO A BOARD WHO WILL.”

Mornin Finland, can anyone tell me the name of a Dubliners song about a sailor who comes ashore and gets a lassie pregnant with twins?
One of the lyrics is ‘never let a sailor lad an inch above your knee’.
Cheers And HH
How about these lyrics,
Hey aw ye Dundee weavers come take a tip frae me
Never let a Glesga man an inch above yer knee
Never take him up a close an staun against the wa’
Fur if ye dae ye kin safely say yer thingamyjig’s awa”.

Lotta talk on the radio this morning about Gareth Bale’s lack of contribution this year. Suggestions of a move back to the EPL.
Good gig last night – Julian Cope still has the madness one would expect from one of the country’s top druids. A thoroughly modern antiquarian.
james gang.
Mind and style – absolutely. The Rube mind is strong…. The Borg like.A run of good fortune ( and hard work ) has them in the Final Olympiakos losing at Malmo ( 2 bad Ref decisions) / playing an on the slide Dortmund / playing a dire Monaco and then a mentally fragile Real ..

Hail Hail fellow eejit:)
Nah, it’s no, ney, never, no , more for me.
KevJungle stopped attending Celtic Park when, Martin O’Neill left.
Now…I’m just a fan who wants the team to do well.
Hopefully that’s acceptable….?

Would you come back if they brought back the green ginger from the Jungle’s last stand?

Gareth Bales stats are better than Englands player oft he year.

If Celtic laid our cards out on the table, then opened a can of worms and spilled the beans, it would be quite the mess.
67H-Ogilvie and Bryson will be all over the Arveladze scam ….

If they sold it in the Celtic shop or the, outer facilities on matchday, I would come doon and get some but, ye know what…it’s better ‘not’ to talk about the Jungles last stand….no coz ah might greet but….coz too much info invoved….if ye get ma drift.
Afternoon Kevj,
The world isn’t remotely interested in the issues which you raised. Scotland doesn’t matter. Anyway, our shenanigans don’t compare with many other leagues around Europe.
Take a look at @BarryAnderson_’s Tweet: https://twitter.com/BarryAnderson_/status/598771391937249280?s=08

Cheers that was my recollection from forms.
But obviously dont have them with me.
The Averladze scam proves a corrupt and special relationship between the Scottish and Dutch FA’s.
HHo
If Celtic put their cards on the table and, called the establishments bluff by, lets say…letting it be known that, if the nazi-police dont reign it in then, Celtic supporters might withdraw their presence from games away from Celtic Park – which the fans shouldn’t be coerced into doing – but, if left with the choice of, becoming a criminal for going to a football match or, staying away to keep within the ‘limits’ of the law then, Celtic supporters and their financial input could be withdrawn from games outwith CP.
Celtic supporters are ‘THEE’ most powerful force of fans in football and, it’s time that the…
Celtic Board
SFA
SPFL
Scottish Policd Force
The SMSM
and anybody that I’ve missed were ‘REMINDED’ of that FACT.
Celtic supporters have a choice….continue to be abused by all and sundry or, be the leaders of the future.
