Despite Walter Smith urging “Rangers fans to get fully behind the resolutions which last week were presented to the Board and shareholders”, which include sacking chief executive, Craig Mather, he added, “Craig Mather, as I have said before is doing a good job. It is unfortunate that this has happened but when change does come I hope he’ll be allowed to continue the job he has started”.
Smith is clearly close to, but not in tandem with, those who requested an Emergency General Meeting.
As well as support for the chief exec, on the manager, Smith says, “As for Alistair McCoist, it is important that we all appreciate that no other Rangers manager has had to work with poorer or more trying circumstances. It is my fervent hope that when the dust settles and Rangers have a clearer path and future he is given the chance to manage under conditions similar to those which were afforded his predecessors.”
Here we get to the crux of the problem. Rangers International face enormous financial challenges. With a half decent football manager, they would be able to win promotion from the third tier of Scottish football with a football budget of around £1m, or several times that of their nearest rivals. If, as the Herald suggested this week, there is not enough money to finish the season, the most immediate responsibility of the directors is to cut costs accordingly.
Cutting costs is not the reason anyone gets into football, and it is certainly not what Walter Smith knew in his time at the Rangers group of clubs, but at times it is absolutely necessary. The non-executive directors of Rangers International would serve their fans interests best by telling this unpalatable truth.
Failure to do this will pale in comparison to some other potential consequences. In setting his stall behind McCoist, Mather’s team building exercise and the EGM protagonists, Smith has almost ensured collapse if those demanding change cannot command the support of 51% of shareholders. To succeed, Paul Murray will need to demonstrate the leadership and deal management skills which were lacking a year ago.
Meanwhile, John Brown’s warning about Green turning Ibrox to dust hangs over the place, a bit like dust.
There is one overarching concern, however. Green is critical to fending off any impending action by Craig Whyte. His evidence will be necessary to explain how Sevco Scotland Ltd assumed the irrevocable entitlement of Sevco 5088 Ltd. Even with Green on-side, this looks like a challenge, but if the main protagonists in this action are separated from those who will have to defend any action, you suspect Whyte will be enormously encouraged.
When Whyte believed he was double-crossed he went nuclear. All Green would need to do is corroborate a sliver of Whyte’s evidence to bring Whyte’s legal challenge into sharp focus. For this reason, Green has to be part of the picture going forward. Demonising him is tempting, and may be deserved, but it’s self-defeating – and these people know all about self-defeating.
Section 111
Two weeks ago I said “place your bets” on what would happen after Celtic issued their “final warning” over a number ongoing issues in section 111. No one was in control of the situation, not Celtic, and not members the Green Brigade, who I believe had nothing to do with several of the issues.
Since then I’ve watched the debate. Some, like Phil Mac Giolla Bhain, attempted to inform on the debate, interviewing handicapped supporters and independent safety experts. Anticipating this day would come, I thought about interviewing the Council, but decided against, not wanting to draw them into making a public stance they would be unable to back down from.
Yesterday felt as inevitable as what’s going to happen next in Govan. Can the situation be rescued? Of course. Will it? Place your bets, people…
I’m not a regular newspaper buyer but the front page of one of today’s is a keeper. Celtic have a lateral movement issue, which dominates the front page, when the utter implosion at Ibrox is relegated to a side column. It’s a testament to our age. We will survive. I can’t say that with any certainty about the other lot.

I’ll tell ye a story, and people are always amazed by this but it’s the Gospel truth;
Mrs Chris1888 and I went to the Edinburgh festival a couple of years ago and were stopped by one of those ‘magic street performer’ sorts.
He asked me for my watch to show me something, and I stupidly agreed! Anyway, after all the agracadabra s**t, the watch was gone.
I played along for a couple of minutes, feigning my delight at his illusion, and then asked for the watch as I had to be on my way for dinner reservations. He hit me with the usual “it’s disappeared” carry on, and we had a small argument for a couple of minutes before he turned his back and walked away, without returning the watch.
There wasn’t much I could do about it, so I cut my losses and headed for the restuarant.
We had ate our starters, and were served with the main course, I took my knife and cut into the pie which I had ordered and you’ll never guess what was inside the pie……..!

I think TSSM (PL) has been very very quiet BUT I do believe we will come up good….
For the money we have received for the troops and now likely Kelvin, SURELY he must have something up the sleeve?
NFL has said they are pursuing but it’s proving difficult, can genuinely u/stand but the fact WE all knew how early the season would start I am saddened our preparations are so slow whilst dismantling the squad….
Onto the GB, I have ad the luxury of witnessing their presence back in 2011 and I thought they were magnificent and for all concerned I do hope Lawell and the gang sit down with the guys and get it resolved..
Unfortunately the game as we know is going through a continuous cycle which is detrimental to what the game has meant to be… A social entertaining day out which is costly……. For whatever reasons, he game as we knew it is no longer there!!

Floating along hoping that the bubble does not burst
Ronnie Cully
NEIL LENNON’S approach to games such as tonight’s Champions League third-round qualifier against Elfsborg would keep a psychoanalyst busy for months.
Celtic??s players have become more self-assured as a result of their success
Celtic??s players have become more self-assured as a result of their success
The Celtic manager freely admits that he searches for the worst-case scenario, then looks even harder for ways to avoid just such a situation developing. He even concedes that he might be prone to a touch of obsessive compulsive disorder as he attempts to put in place the plan which he believes can carry his side past the Swedish champions and into Friday’s draw for the play-off round. It might appear excessive to some, but it is a tried and trusted method, and in the Boras Arena it will once again be put into practise.
Lennon has examined what Elfsborg – with or without injury doubt Mo Bangura – may try to do to cancel out the 1-0 deficit from the first leg in Glasgow. He expects his side to have to score again, but has reminded his players it does not matter when that happens, or if Elfsborg get on the score sheet first. Lennon believes he has every contingency covered, but will still be living on the edge until the final whistle blows, simply because progress in the competition means so much to everyone at the club.
“I wasn’t feeling the pressure, but I am starting to a wee bit now and I shouldn’t be,” said Lennon. “I’m more relaxed than last year, but it’s just because it means so much to so many people. You just want to get everything right. You become a bit OCD in your approach. You think you’ve got your preparations right, then you ask yourself, ‘Have I? Did I do that?’ Sometimes you over think things, but that’s not a bad thing.”
Lennon cannot even take any comfort from having successfully negotiated the path to the group stages 12 months ago. “It’s funny,” he explained. “You think, ‘well, you’ve done it once, you know what it’s about’. As a manager, you weigh up the worst possible scenarios and then anything after that’s a bonus. You just think about what could go wrong, how to rectify it, how the game will go. You think of the negative things and how you could change things. I’m going into the game, I wouldn’t say confident, but in a good frame of mind.”
Lennon says he is not losing sleep worrying about it and a positive outcome tonight will cause that to continue. Eliminating Elfsborg could have a bearing on the money available to strengthen ahead of the play-off round, and the need to do so is clear, but that distraction has to be banished from his mind. There is more than enough occupying that particular space at the moment. “I want to get through then we can maybe look at strengthening,” said Lennon. “All my focus has been on this game, and it’s imperative we get through. For the next three or four weeks, you are in that bubble.”
That acts as a barrier to unwanted thoughts and memories, such as previous disappointments in Europe. Lennon prefers to focus on how effectively his players dealt with last season’s ties against HJK Helsinki and Helsingborgs, winning all four matches before making a real statement in the group stages. He believes that gives his players more self assurance, even if he does not full share their feelings.
“Anything can happen on any given night,” he said. “I don’t want to go back to the old days of Sion and Utrecht. This team, mentally, have come on a bit since then in terms of how they approach the game, how they feel, how they want to play. I wouldn’t say they are confident, but there’s more comfort in the games now than there was before.
Pressed on the dark night in Switzerland when they lost before being restated to the competition after Sion were thrown out, Lennon said: “You don’t want to go there again. Those sort of things hurt. We all want Champions League football, nobody more so than myself. I hate these games because they’re so early, but they’re important and you need a bit of luck. Can we get it right? If we get through this one, we’ve only got two more to worry about.”
For now, Lennon will worry about what is in front of him, and that is likely to include Bangura. Asked if he is concerned that the on-loan striker might have a say tonight, Lennon replied: “You always worry about it. Football throws up these coincidences, little quirks. He had a tough job at Celtic Park but I think, if he plays, he will have more of a free role. We’ve got the players to handle him. It’s not just Mo I’m worried about. There are three or four who can hurt us and set pieces are important. But we’ll have plenty for them to think about as well.”
Georgios Samaras should recover from the foot knock sustained amid some heavy tackling in the first leg. The Greek has been warned he faces more of the same this evening but Lennon believes his players can handle themselves. “If things get a bit tasty, we have plenty of players who can look after themselves. I take it as a backhanded compliment if they are trying to stop people like Samaras.”

SFA: Rangers asked to be fined
The Scottish Football Association have clarified why they issued a fine after Rangers went into administration in February last year, but did not impose the same punishment when Dunfermline Athletic and Hearts suffered the same fate.
The governing body pointed out that the Ibrox club’s lawyer asked for a fine to be considered for the breach of Rule 14(g), while the administrators in charge of the other two clubs made cases that financial penalties could harm the chances of successfully exiting the insolvency event.
All three clubs received registration embargos, but Rangers were also fined £50,000 – at the maximum end of the tariff – by the judicial panel.
Both Ally McCoist, the Rangers manager, and Craig Mather, the Ibrox chief executive, called for an explanation when Hearts and Dunfermline escaped a fine. In a statement, the SFA explained that “Rangers were placed into administration following the deliberate non-payment of social taxes, despite – in the evidence provided – having the money to do so when the decision was first taken to withhold the money.”
This was not a feature in the Heart of Midlothian or Dunfermline Athletic cases. Contrary to Mr Mather’s statement, Rangers’ registration embargo was applied in a separate rule breach, Rule 66 – Bringing the Game into Disrepute.
The administrators in the two other cases (Heart of Midlothian and Dunfermline Athletic) submitted that fines would be inappropriate as the clubs effectively had no money and any fine could jeopardise attempts to save the club. Rangers’ lawyer, in contrast, specifically asked for the club to be fined in respect of Charge 3, or Rule 14(g). Rangers did not appeal the fine.”

Coming out of a caf in Los Angeles today, with my tattered old Sutton top on. Elderly punter on the way in says with a half sneer and a puffed chest: “A’hm a Rangers supporter”.
I say with a big grin: “There IS no Rangers pal”.
Him: Scowl and “No sense of humour, I was just kiddin”.
Me: “Aye pal”.
IT’S not like he walked into his hotel room in the Swedish town of Boras and turned his light switch on and off 67 times.
At least we don’t think he did.
Neil Lennon has spent countless hours thinking about the best way to get Celtic into the Champions League.
The Hoops gaffer has analysed things over and over in his mind and the only way he can describe what is going on in his head right now is to call it a form of footballing OCD.
Elfsborg are the next team that stand between Lennon and the final play-off round for the group stages and it’s all he can think about.
He has been here before, last season, and that experience is helping settle him down.
Lennon said: “All my focus in the last couple of days has been on this game, and it is imperative we get through. I know that.
“For the next three or four weeks, you are in that bubble we spoke about last year.
“I was not feeling the pressure initially, but I am starting to a wee bit now, and I know I should not be.
“I am a little bit more relaxed than I was last year, but I know it means so much to so many people.
“You just want to get everything right. You become a bit sort of OCD in your approach.
“You think you have got your preparations right, then you ask yourself: ‘Have I got that right, did I do that’?
“Sometimes you over-think things, but that is probably not a bad thing.
“I sleep like a baby, though.
“It’s funny. You think, well, you have done it once, you know what it’s about.
“But I always think, as a manager, you weigh up the worst possible scenarios and then anything after that’s a bonus.
“You just think about what could go wrong, how to rectify it, how the game will go.
“You think of the negative things and how you could change things. But I’m going into this game in a good frame of mind.”
What would make failure worse is Lennon would know exactly what Celtic would be missing out on.
Last season’s experience, Barcelona and reaching the last 16, lifted his spirits so incredibly high it would be a killer to be sitting at home in front of the TV when THAT CL theme music starts blaring out.
Lennon added: “More so for the players than me.
“They have got that experience from last year. Anything can happen on any given night. I don’t want to go back to the old days of Sion and Utrecht.
“You don’t want to go there again. Those sort of things hurt you.
“This team mentally have come on a bit since then, in terms of how they approach the game and how they feel, how they want to play.
“I would not say they are confident, but there is more comfort in the European games than there was before.
“We all just want Champions League football, nobody more than myself.
“I hate these qualifiers because they are so early, but they are so important and you need a little bit of luck.
“Can we get it right? If we get through this one, we have only got two more to worry about after that.”
The fear for Lennon is even if Celtic get to the group stages, he is going to be weaker than last season unless he is allowed to spend and spend big.
Victor Wanyama and Gary Hooper are long gone with Kelvin Wilson on his way out. Replacing all those key men is not going to be easy.
Lennon said: “All I want to do is qualify, then we will take it from there.
“It is the same remit as last year. It is going to be a bit more difficult without that calibre of players.
“But hopefully we can negotiate this tie then we have got two weeks to prepare for the next one.
“If we get through here, I’m pretty sure we will add to the squad. That was always an opportunity or situation that might arise with players leaving.
Players come and go. We have achieved a lot in the three years.
“We have built these players up and sold them for good money, which is to the enormous credit to everyone in the backroom staff and chief scout John Park.
“So, we will go again. It may take a couple of years to build a team as good as that again, but that is the challenge that lies ahead of us.”
But the job in hand is to KO Elfsborg, a side who showed at Parkheaed they are not afraid to put the boot in.
Hoops’ Euro talisman Georgios Samaras was clearly targeted before the first leg. But Lennon takes that as a compliment, before quickly pointing out that his players are not choir boys themselves.
He added: “If things get a bit tasty here we have got plenty of players who can look after themselves on the physical side of things, so that does not concern me.
“I take it as a back-handed compliment if they are trying to stop people like Samaras.
“I’ve got James Forrest, Anthony Stokes and Kris Commons who can open them up at will. So we will come here to score.
“Whether it takes ten, 70 or 94 minutes, we will bide our time and try to take the opportunities when they come.”
FRASER FORSTER has the Road to Rio mapped out.
But he knows to get to Brazil he must first get out of Boras with his Champions League dream still alive.
A year on from the heroics in Helsingborg that won him his first England call-up, the Celtic keeper is back in Sweden, bracing himself for the most important 90 minutes of his career.
Champions League failure is not an option — not in a World Cup year.
So Forster, 25, is praying he can reproduce the form that sparked Celtic’s Euro glory run last season, and force his way back into Roy Hodgson’s plans.
Reflecting on last year’s vital 2-0 win over Helsingborgs, Forster said: “It was brilliant, a big lift for us.
“It was nice to do my bit but Elfsborg will be a very different game, a tough challenge and we will just have to see what comes up.
“It’s good to play in the Champions League and it was great for me last season. We are aiming to get into the group stages, but we can only take it one game at a time.
“Away games in Europe tend to be busier and that is good for a keeper.
“You can go through games without really doing much, but as a player it’s better to do well and make saves.
“There is no doubt I gave Brazil a lot of thought over the summer. A World Cup over there is something special and a once-in-a-lifetime thing.
“For me, the Champions League will be crucial and I’m really hoping to get in. You can’t look too far ahead, you just have to concentrate on doing well for your team.
“There is nothing better than Champions League nights and if we can keep going in the competition to the group stages.
“We can have more experiences and it will only benefit us as individuals, and as a team.”
Celtic have one foot in the final qualifying round after Kris Commons’ winner gave the Hoops a slender 1-0 first-leg lead.
Forster has shipped just one goal in his last SEVEN qualifiers and hopes to throw up the shutters again to deny Elfsborg.
He added: “It’s a good recent record and gives the lads a lot of confidence.
“It is different when it is two-leg games and everyone wants to get through so much it is going to be a battle.
“I think they will come at us. They sat off quite a lot in the-first leg, but with us having a 1-0 lead it will encourage them to come out and play.
“That might suit us as it will open the game up a bit more and allow us to get the ball down and pass it. I would expect to be busy.
“But we are a year older and more experienced and we have been to some tough places and some great places in Europe last year.
“That can only help us and what we did last year gives us confidence to go on and do better this year. European football is a lot different for us.
“We played away in Moscow on an Astroturf pitch and came through that one and then we had the Barcelona matches.
“You are under so much pressure for 90 minutes over those two games and they are fantastic experience. That’s why we want to get back into the group stages.”
Despite a clean sheet at Parkhead and that 1-0 lead, Forster insists the tie is far from over.
Neil Lennon’s men will play a crunch Euro tie on a synthetic surface for the second time in a year.
Forster stressed: “It is a good result, coming in from the first leg, but it will be a very tough game, but if we can score an away goal it will be huge for us.
“But the tie is far from over. We created a lot of chances at the weekend, which was a huge positive, so if we can play like that again it should not be a problem.
“The Astroturf will be something a bit different, but with the quality we have and the chances we can create I fancy us to score.
“I’ll have a chance to look at the surface tonight and just go from there. Every Astroturf is a bit different, but training on it helps you and then you have got to adapt the best you can.”
Forster excelled in Europe last season, pulling out all the stops in a bid to convince England boss Hodgson he is international class.
And he believes he has improved as a player since joining Celts on a permanent deal last summer.
Forster added: “The past 12 months have been brilliant for me. I got exposure through the Champions League and feel I have progressed.
“We all want to improve and get to the Champions League again to improve our careers.”
Lennon dismay amid trouble in Paradise
Wednesday, August 07, 2013
By Ronnie Esplin
Neil Lennon believes it is a “shame” the Green Brigade are to be dispersed around Celtic Park after repeated warnings about their behaviour.
The Parkhead club issued a statement confirming that they are to close section 111 of their stadium, which houses the Ultras group, known for banner displays and singing. However, among other things, warnings to stop “lateral movement of spectators” and “body surfing” went unheeded and consequently supporters will be offered a refund on their season tickets or the chance to relocate.
The Celtic boss is in Sweden for the second leg of their Champions League third qualifying round against Elfsborg, looking to defend a 1-0 lead. When asked about the issue, he said: “It’s disappointing because I think that section adds hugely to the atmosphere at the stadium.
“It is beyond me, it is a club decision and it is a shame that has come to this. There are lines of dialogue still open so I wouldn’t say this is the end but it is all about safety at the end of the day, that is paramount to the club.”
Celtic go into action tonight without forward Derk Boerrigter, midfielder Tom Rogic (both ankle) and defender Virgil van Dijk (foot).

From Brian Marjoribanks in the Mail.
Reporting on last night’s game:-
“As the clock ticked down to 90 minutes, their hymns of praise for McCoist became deafening, while they continued to voice their venom towards Green.”
Hmmm….
So it looks as if big Kev is offski after tonight’s game. A decent player who was ‘home sick’ which is in itself a little strange Nottingham being a few hours’ drive or a quick flight away from Glasgow. Anyway if he does leave i wish him all the best. Just hope we have been looking for a replacement.
With an alleged 2.5 million fee agreed that brings the amount of money secured through player sales close to 20 million pounds, obviously prior to money due to other clubs for sell on clauses etc being deducted. When we are assured of European football at the end of today’s game (confidence) i would hope to see a reasonable reinvestment of some of the money received back into the playing squad.

Good Morning fellow tims, almost finished one of the most horrific nightshifts of my life…huge day for Celtic today. We need to get this right tonight, any result that takes us through to next round suits me but I’d like it if we could do it in a bit of style..Celtic have never conceded a goal to a Swedish team, lets keep that stat and nick a couple ourselves, 2-0 is my prediction, samaras to score first.
