SFL is over but still busy times

921

The Scottish Football League programme is now finished with only play-offs still to complete but there is still a great deal of business to complete.  The remarkable persistence of First Division clubs to find a financial model which will allow them to retain full time football shows no sign of ending, despite the difficulties presented from a couple of quarters.

Meanwhile the Third Division champions have even more pressing matters.  They have now finished their league programme and can now officially be told what they have perhaps unofficially suspected for some weeks.  Charles Green has agreed to remain a director until the end of this month.  Before he goes the ownership of Ibrox, as well as the appropriateness of the club’s IPO in December, will need to be established.  They have a three week window but nothing happens until the lawyers report, which I expect this week.

It was two years ago today Sir David Murray took a £1 payment and relieved himself of outstanding commitments to Lloyds Banking Group, the legacy of his time at Rangers.  The support Craig Whyte received at critical times in the months which followed was breath-taking.  Every hack, side-kick, and numpty ‘fan’ who told the rest to set aside all common sense deserve a medal for what they did to that club.

They don’t even understand the mock-worship Celtic fans offer Whyte is a parody on where they were 2011-12.

    They are gone, they’re dead and should be continually reminded of that FACT, what you’ve suggested around not accepting they’re gone until Ibrox is dust simply gives substance to their ‘we’re not dead” “we’re the same club” garbage.

     

     

    They’re gone never to return. Now there is a tribute act, there is likely to be further zombie clubs created and supported by the current zombie fans and also potentially playing at Ibrox, I don’t think that will change, but they will NEVER be the same club, that club died.

     

     

    The war is over, the rebels have won.

     

     

    Hope you’re well.

    UEFA could do nothing about Manchester as the trouble took place in the city not the stadium so they have evolved sufficiently to know to to commit crimes in front of football authority inside a stadium (unlike in 1972).

     

     

    I remember a fair few faces being splattered across the papers outing them as arrested for the trouble in Manchester (funnily enough none of them were Millwall or Chelsea fans living in London) so you are wrong there, they got em.

     

     

    As for the main point – you’ll only be satisfied when they’re completely gone – they never will be completely gone because they have too many peepul who want to watch a team in those colours representing what they believe is their birthright but it will never be the same again and deep down they know it and what we know is they cannot accept it and will never be allowed to forget it. They’ll be reminded of their failure, liquidation and lies forever by us and the other fans in Scotland no matter how much guff the media spin or how many invented rules the SFA come up with. Where they play, who they play and what they win is a moot point, it’s over for them but what we know is they’ll never accept it and we’ll never let them forget what really happened.

     

     

    They lost. We won.

     

     

    As for asbestos well that needs seeing to from what people keep on saying and that ain’t cheap. Throw that on the IOU pile and you’ll see where things are for them.

     

     

    You might get your wish.

    One for ole Kitalba , and others interested in history.

     

     

    It seems that it’s not just the French who have a complicated relationship with World War 2

     

     

    History is complicated[ which is one of its fascinations], any one who says otherwise is a galoot.

    Yes the animals faces were plastered over the papers – all 13 of them ?

     

     

    So – BFSDJ was right enough then ?

     

     

    BFSDJ said – “It was only a tiny minority who misbehaved when you consider there were 250k of fans down there!!!”

     

     

    13 arrests ???? WTF ?

     

     

    Anyway…The rebels have won – Too True !

     

    But – has the club EVER felt like the Cellic since Fergus, slowly but surely

     

    ousted the rebels from the bored ?

     

     

    Also – If it’s us that have won ?

     

    Why have the crowds fallen so dramatically ?

     

    No Jelly n Ice Cream left ? :)

     

     

    As I say – I’m hopeful for the need of more Jelly n Ice cream but….

    Talky Malky is making way for Doug and Dinsdale Piranha to take the reins.

    The Rangers group of clubs are always winners if you read the Daily Record.

     

     

    But if you consider facts alone – in liquidation you lose everything.

    Can’t stop laughing ‏@corsica1968 5m @BonScott_1 @alextomo @BBCchrismclaug Its interesting because Murray had clearly aligned himself with the Cardigan.

    Cheers, Burgas. That explains it.

  19. If Murray has been ousted it means the Zeus cadre have won the boardroom battle and I will have to revise my prediction that the SFA will do nothing to them for the licence breaches.

     

     

    The favours will be called in now and I think the licence will be revoked to allow the “Rangers men” to reclaim the black soul from the 2nd liquidators.

     

     

    This is going to get messy…..

     

     

    We will need more sugary gelatine and frozen dairy
