It was theoretically possible someone could have bid for Rangers today but it was always more likely that interim-managers, Duff and Phelps, would get offers that were dependent on a remarkably positive upside.
Sure, if HRMC get their bums handed to them on a plate by the First Tier Tribunal (FTT), Craig Whyte decides to tear up his security on Ibrox and Ticketus forget where they put the contract of sale for the next three years season tickets, even I’d bid for them. Not much, though, I’m only interested in Waitrose Park out at Milngavie.
There is nothing Duff and Phelps can do about the FTT but wait for the verdict. It might report in their favour. If so, it’s game on and they will surely invite offers for sale again, until then, they will have to shuffle paper and look busy.
No one has been able to shift Craig Whyte’s security or offered to buy Ibrox from him, so he is the only real bidder for Rangers and I don’t think he even bid today. Our old friend Game Theory would have us busy planning for a scenario when he exercises his power in this game. Ostracising him might encourage him to walk away, or it might force him to dig his heels in.
Game Theory would also suggest we don’t play poker when we know the other guy has four aces, they don’t often walk away.
Pay the man or find a way of telling yourself he’s not that bad after all.

Minor blip
Absolutely criminal defending by Utd.aluko scores.
how excited do the commentator sound?
I never watch Ranjurs games because, when I do, they usually win but listening to you guys I turned it on at 2 0, only to see them score…argggg!!
Batter,blooter,smash’n’grab…freak goal. Could only be The Scum.
If it’s not an “effort at goal”, I think we can safely call that deflection an o.g.
A went away for a minute, and they scored…..but, it’s OK now….I’m back, and Utd will soon score again…..LOL
The look of bewilderment on Ally’s face is priceless. Looks like he’s saying: “I put a sub on and he scored. Who’d have predicted that? I wonder if I should make any other changes or would that just be pushing my luck?”
Cheer up guys – theyre still losing.

VHman..
Cheers Buddi will have Look..
Summa
They’re Rangers till July
mc gregor ask for utd player to be booked
It’s on days like this I wish I could still drink and/or get wrecked.
However,my days of Olympic scale gettin’ wasted are a decade gone.
At least I see and remember everything now!
Elbows booked
Hopefully another yellow before the end
What’s mccullochs nickname again?
McCulloch with the elbow again. Disgrace of a footballer.
That was a sending off……walker THINKS IT WAS A YELLOW FOR THE ELBOW
elbows=thug=red card
Ridiculous collapse by elbows when Russell leant on him.
Seconds later he leads with his ‘elbow’, surprise, on Russell and gets booked
Uhuh? Elbows? What have you been up to now?
Last time out he appealed a red card in order to play against Celtic.
Yellow number one for that assault on Russell.
Another one and he’s off and can’t appeal.
Ha ha! Andy walker says while watching a replay of the foul “I think it’s that forearm…”
D’ye think, Andy?
They’re a joke…..thugs
McCullough is a thug. Should be banned.
SffS
To be fair, McCulloch only used 25% of his elbow that time – as per his new contract.
Elbows escapes a red card! Scum F.C.
Ditto for Edu.
Commentators think it’s funny.
Only in The SPL.
Filthy McGregor gets lucky
Bobby williamson (the ref) not taking any guff second half.lol
KLV
This is great to watch….they really are mince
Even if they draw we can still win league at the bigot dome can’t we?
Hardly posted this year, was too dissapointed by the attitude of some towel chuckers earlier in the season on here, this can be a poor place at times when the chips are down……
I fully expect Tayside police to be making arrests in the hundreds after today’s game after all the singing (sectarian and about terrorist organisations).
We will win comfortably next week if we play as we have been, they are a poor poor outfit. The support need to take care next week, be careful getting in and out of the “Broocamp” those bampots are out for blood.
As with all good stories the truth will always out in the end, follow the money as they say, it would be very very interesting to know the major players involved in Octupus the parent company of Ticketus, it would be very interesting! I would also love to see a list of people who benefited from the EBT’s.
I would like to wish all CQNers a happy St Paddy’s day and a wonderful day out tommorow at the cup final..
hail hail gebhoy
I’d love to see this mob against Macari’s Celtic. Wayne Biggins would have a field day.
We hammer D.U.
D.U. beatin’ Hun F.C.
Therefore we should mollucate them at The Midden. Q.E.D.
another young thug, they must train them in the dark arts, thats not natural.
KLV
Huns desperately trying to get DU player booked for not leading with his elbow
Well watching this display from the hun, we can look forward to all manner of cheating next week ,diving, fouling and the obligatory pressure put on the brother in the black
Walker isn’t actually very bright…..or maybe it’s just his eyesight ?
Celtic *o* Lennon, yes but only if motherwell drop points in either of their two games.
Can’t remember the last time I watched them, and was so relaxed
