Milan’s mistake with their Champions League squad – they inadvertently included Stephan El Shaarawy in their restricted A List of players, instead of the B List, denying a place in either list for M’Baye Niang, is welcome news. Their squad is strong, with or without Niang, but the oversight lends credence to the notion that a malaise has settled over the club. Director, Umberto Gandini apologised, but already the Milanese are focused on what they don’t have in their armory as a result of the oversight – an excuse for failure is ready made.
I met the owner of an IT company shortly before they went into liquidation and asked him who he had on his board. “Are you not on our board too?” was his jocular response. The company had already gone through a couple of difficult years. With each passing period investors became increasingly concerned; they all wanted a place around the boardroom table, convinced that their gilt-edged experience would be able to guide the company through its troubles.
The chief exec had to cope not-so-much with a boardroom full of captains of industry (which they were), as another pressure group to satisfy, along with clients, creditors, staff and the bank (they may have been weeks from liquidation, but they still had borrowing, this was not a Metro Bank deposit account-only operation).
The chief exec understood the industry and, left to his own devices, stood a sporting chance at survival, but when the boardroom table became occupied by a parcel of rogues the game was up.
On a completely separate matter, I am delighted at the prospect of Paul Murray and John McClelland having a second shot at being a non-executive director of a football club. Wikipedia’s definition of the roles of a non-exec is worth a cursory glance to indicate why. They did so well last time. The others, who it is proposed will share a place at Newco’s table, also appear perfect for the role. If only Sir David would come out of retirement and join them.
Will one of the many directors insist that The Rangers Football Club Ltd submits its Annual Return to Companies House? Under its previous name, Sevco Scotland Ltd, The Rangers Football Club Ltd bought liquidation assets from Duff and Phelps, and which, according to Rangers International’ PLC’s interim financial statement in March, was incorporated into the PLC’s group.
The Return is over two months late. Perhaps, with so many directors available for comment, one will be asked by a journalist or shareholder why the company which bought all the assets has not submitted basic information, revealing ownership details. Perhaps not. No hurry, a striking off notice will be weeks away.

Turkey shoot anyone ….Pull……….. braw!
Having only just watched the game on the BBCs very limited highlights I would like to know…..
What on earth have Dundee United got to complain about?
Their man, Gunning, took a clear kick at our centre half.
He was also the player involved in the so called innocuous challenge that saw Mikael Lustig strechered off. Watch the challenge again, it was anything but ‘innocuous’, it was the type of challenge from the rear that was only going to hurt our player who was jumping to head the ball only to be met with an aggressive elbow/barge cum flying Kung fu kick. The fact the injury occurred when both players landed in a heap is irrelevant, the challenge was reckless.
What about our penalty claim? Another stonewall penalty not awarded in a tight game. Anyone spot a trend?
Who was the United player who thought it acceptable behaviour to strike Anthony Stokes just after he got to his feet having been awarded a free kick on the edge of the box and why was Stokes booked for scoring said free kick. I didn’t see him leave the field of play.
I listened to the last half hour of the commentary live on radio Scotland and once again Willie Miller of Aberdeen seemed like the only sane man in the room. What is the world comming to!

Nailing your colours to the mast tonight eh? You have been edging there for the last two weeks ya Hun bassa.
Turkeybhoy
Unlike the rest I won’t hold back, your a Hun, only a Hun would post that crap.
Good Evening Fellow CQN Predictors,
Just a reminder that this week matters, if you are in the bottom 32 of the League on Monday you will have to go through the torture of a life or death Pre-Qualifying round in Game weeks 5&6, if you loose that, its the drudgery of league football and no glamour Champions League nights to look forward to, we might do a Chip Shop Cup though! Kiddin’
So get this weeks predictions in now, and make them count!
I know I have to, I am deep in the mire at present.
You can adjust your scores until 5pm on Friday, now you can also do it after that, but be warned, we will know, and we will know who made the adjustments, so no putting incorrect scores into an opponents! Clever Ole Dropbox.
We want to play the game in the Corinthian Spirit rather than the Sevcovian Spirit:-)
Site down?

Unlike some of the others,I share your interest in observing the depths to which the hun is prepared to crawl.
I find their pathetic insults invigorating.

After Jacks wee interview wae AM and scotzine they followed up with this.
Why the media are not covering the revelations by Charlotte Fakes http://www.scotzine.com/2013/09/media-covering-revelations-charlotte-fakes/ …
TurkeyBhoy is posting what has been said on FF, not his thoughts.
Seems like how they are trying to justify Hello Hello.
TurkeyBhoy ain’t no Hun.
He is showing how perma ragers on FF justify their bile.

TurkeyBhoy, I’ve been mistaken for my views in the past, most will get what you meant, those who didn’t will now. Hopefully. Keep posting.
