Pleased to see the Club recognised for CelticLive, the stadium WiFi and content imitative by the European Club Association. Anything which builds our profile at the ECA is welcome.
Today’s Telegraph assures us Newco Rangers chief executive, Graham Wallace, is set to leave the club with his plans to raise £4m at a pending share issue still in the balance. The newspaper further asserts the club is a “toxic brand” and is trying to secure an emergency loan from Newcastle United owner, Mike Ashley.
The club, which informed the Court of Session on Friday that it had only £1.2m cash left, and last night informed the Telegraph it was losing £1m per month, requires vastly more money than the £4m they are struggling to raise in order to finish the season.
Some credit is due to the Daily Record for their splash with photo and leader, “Rangers director Sandy Easdale and a criminal wanted by Interpol tried to negotiate an Ibrox bailout yesterday”. They are reporting two years after Paul McConville’s blog initially broke the news of said Interpol-interested character, Rafat Rizvi.
Rizvi, who can take refuge in the UK as we don’t have an extradition treaty with Indonesia, is allegedly wanted for corruption, money laundering and banking crime, denies the charges, which he has already been convicted of. He should fit in quite well.
As we said at the weekend, irrespective of short-term events, the long-term fundamentals remain unchanged. The only thing to be decided is which of the characters hovering around the carcase will get to pick on the bones.
All credit to Sir David Murray.

“No room for facetioness”
Whit! Has Alex passed another Bill outlawing facetiousness?
He’s depriving himself of a major political weapon if he does.
I am a great admirer of George Galloway.
However his apparent, and I use the word apparent allegation that the SNP is pulling the BBC’s strings requires a very full and transparent examination.
DD
It’s Wakaso for me too. A speedy winger that will make wee Jamesie excel even more when he gets back. BTW I saw Stephen Reilly do a take off of Raheem Sterling’s running style on Soccer AM and it looked just like wee James’s style- like Dick Emery carrying a handbag and wearing heels.
I suspect we will see both Wakaso and Scepovic on Saturday.

Still not watched any of his youtube action…..gonna have a wee look in a mo because you selected him ;)
I am excited about them all as well……pace, pace and more pace :)

So it’s ok to be facetious while we’re waiting?
Wee 1/2 clip about Mr Jock Stein from Celtic collectibles on twitter.

George Galloway made a direct allegation regarding BBC Scotland and how SNP influenced him being pulled from the show after they had agreed with him to appear.
He can’t say that if it’s not true, otherwise I’m sure both the BBC and Salmond will call him for it. Which, of course, they won’t, as it was the BBC who told him.
DD,
I’ll get in touch with acgr to find out where your meeting, reckon he will still be sleeping as his mrs is an ex pole dancer :)
Think a few are meeting up with kevinbhoy, not sure where as yet, I’ll text Lennybhoy and see what their up to.

Well he was hardly likely to.

Thanks for the response, to me GG is playing a longer game. He has been ramping up support on Twitter for Respect Scotland in order to have a power base to lsunch a full blown campaign in future years if the Yes campaign wins out..I admire him for that, he is very well aware that the people of Scotland will need a strong anti establishment voice if the Yes vote carries. He will not want to be tarnished, like Jim Murphy and the others. Incidentally I have no gripe with Jim Murphy like many on here.

“No room for facetioness,. It is an extremely serious matter if a politicaL party can deictate BBC policy. Matter needs cleared up.”
So what we are being led to believe here is the BRITISH Broadcasting Company is being dictated to by a Scottish nationalist.
Seriously?
Perhaps Sturgeon should challenge Galloway to a debate.
I believe Galloway has challenged Salmond to debate previously, but Salmond declined.
Blantyre, you have had a horrific time with the surgery and after effects to your leg.
I’m glad your pain and discomfort hasn’t affected your sense of humour.
When I started in the social, housing costs paid with benefit were starting to be phased out and the transition to Housing Benefit began. In most cases Housing Benefit & housing costs paid direct to a lender, kept a roof over people’s head.
The two I would like to start on Saturday are Scepovic & Mubarak. A goal scorer and a pacy player who, hopefully, will improve our service to the front man/men.

The OO marching in Salt n Sauce is hilariously funny. Imagine all those wee Costorphian’s and Meadows grannies appreciating that. It’s brilliant!
Gordybhoy64 at last count I have persuade 14 people, 9 of whom were No’s like I was at one time, to change from No or undecided to Yes. Not based on what I had to say but based on asking them to actually get involved and read both sides, find as much information as they could and make as much of an informed decision as they can.
I’m happy with that.
MWD says AYE and is happy to counter Ernie the soo side of the border misrepresenter.

It’s a through the looking glass moment. The very things YES campaigners have said about the BBC for months is now being used by Galloway.
No its the no people who are getting a raw deal and the media is biased against them and does what the SNP says.
That must be why we got 45 uninterrupted minutes of Gordon Brown the other day.
The very same things YES campaigners have complained about for 2 years in this referendum are not being used by BT to say those evil nats are out to get you.
It is another branch of fear.
Pamela Nash was just at my door.
Very nice – might just vote No now :-)

I was at Mike Galloway’s testimonial. Big Pierre got booked for dissent.

I never made any suggestions. I was just being facetious. It might be my last chance to do so if Alex gets in, like.

we can click on it to break open an EMERGENCY QUIZ and up pops inflatable/virtual Delaneys Dunkies, Hamilton Tims, Gary67, etc and they can have a bit of craic together washing away the political blues
that was funny.
And as for the DR poll, you know that tag no one reads on here.
Field work on polling was taken prior to field work of You Gov poll. Results announced later but polling actually taken earlier.
It is amazing how things can be misrepresented.
But it does make me larf.

standard life warning they might move business to
england if yes
as far as i am concerned i wish they had moved
40 yrs ago
they ripped off thousands of hard working scots
with their dodgy endowment policies then their
top man waltzes away with a knighthood
why would anyone worry what these shysters
in the banking and insurance industry say
after the havoc they have caused over the
last few years
the heads of these companies are only concerned
about losing the knighthoods m,b,e s that get chucked
at them if we gain independence
what you dont hear about are the amount of american
and european companies that have made plans to move
from london if england pull out of europe in a couple of yrs
Sftb,
I quite fancy taking the family to Disneyland next year. I’ve never fancied the place. Not my cup of tea at all but the bairns are at that age where I think they’ll love it.
Do you think I should tell them we canny go as I’ve never been there before, even though I’ve had the chance to go since the place was built in the 50’s?
SFTB
Canny wait till Saturday’s match. Need some excitement the noo, and think oor Bonny Bhoys will provide it. Hope we all cheer, sing and support them.

I was in douglas st for 20 years…
I think if rRonny goes for the pacey winger we need the big man in the middle,, so agree with your choices
The papers in their pocket.
The media 100% on their side.
World leaders speaking out for their cause.
The heads of industry waging a scare and threat campaign for them.
Their ‘friends’ in the city manipulating the pound to dollar exchange rate invoking panic and dread.
Every celebrity and star under the sun standing with them.
How can No lose this?
Have any of you stepped outside and witnessed the hysteria?
For what? For £1,500 billion pounds of oil wealth.
There I’ve said it.
That’s what this is all about.
And in decades to come, when the wells are dry……..’oh jocks……remember that independence ye were all on about……there ye go guys….be our guests…..now gtf…….’

Have you got back to me with a catagorical denial yet or are you just not talking to me because I called you out for the eejit you are? Were you on the charge of the elite brigade today?

Bad enough the FM of Scotland had to debate a Labour back-bencher twice now we need to get a debate with a man in a magician’s coat and a fedora who got 3% in the last Scottish election and who represents Bradford as the result of a Bi-election win about to be put out on his backside in May?
Good grief.

I meant Miliband said no to the debate.
I would have thought he would have welcomed the chance to extend his day in Scotland.
He could have persuaded the country on national television that, following a NO vote and since Labour are the party of social justice, he will lead a UK government devoted to the concept and protect the poor and vulnerable in the United Kingdom jus as Labour has always done.

I was just a nipper so I had to google
this one;
The Scottish referendum of 1979 was a post-legislative referendum to decide whether there was sufficient support for a Scottish Assembly proposed in the Scotland Act 1978 among the Scottish electorate. This was an act to create a devolved deliberative assembly for Scotland. The Act provided for special conditions on the referendum stipulating that for the Act not to be repealed at least 40% of the electorate would have to vote Yes in the referendum.
The referendum resulted in a 51.6% support for the proposal which, with 32.9% of the registered electorate voting in favour, fell short of the required 40% condition for the Scotland Act 1978 to be implemented. A second referendum to create a devolved legislature in Scotland was held in 1997, which led to the enactment of the Scotland Act 1998 and the creation of a devolved Scottish Parliament in 1999.
I can understand the huff against Jim Callaghans labour Government
Labour has ignored Scotland in favour of wooing middle england ever since.
Next week hopefully that will be sorted one way or another
HH
George Galloway has as much relevance in this debate as Nigel Farage. Would people be as up in arms if he was making the same claims?
‘GG
The Gallus word has been used to describe him.
That is a word that is seldom attributed to players……unless they really have something and he clearly has.
I guess there is a fine line between confidence bordering on arrogance and baw-heidedness……if the lad is as self assured as he comes across without being an ass……then he may well have what it takes to emulate some of his countryman’s deeds(sorry for using that word any lurking huns)in the hoops.
Here’s hoping he loves it all up here and gets himself back to the form he showed in Holland…..and loves it all that much that he wants to stay!
MWD
you may have missed my question earlier, do you do any active campaigning for the referendum or do you only do so on line.
ERNIE
I gave asked you the same question a number of times, any chance you might answer
