Craig Whyte bought Rangers using season ticket money. He sacked the old boardroom and replaced them with guys who were never given the chance to do their jobs as Whyte didn't speak to them or give them access to the important stuff (we know this much with the benefit of hindsight). I don't even know who our finance director was when Whyte was in charge! The supporters were kept in the dark. You hear rumours and scaremongering tactics coming from your main rivals and your first thought is it's bullshit. Do you know exactly what's happening behind the scenes at your own club? Not many fans do. There's no chance I'm scrolling through 3000+ pages of rival clubs fans claiming to be experts in the field of business and accounts. I'm just thankfull we're back to playing football and I'm looking forward to the season ahead.

I like to think that even the minority of nutjobs that support us would not harm a man who is wheel chair bound. I don't think Murray intentionally run us into the ground. He was just incompetent. I think it got to a point where the bank were pulling the strings aswell. But because he hasn't been assaulted, that doesnt mean the Rangers support condone what he done to us.

Whyte had already disappeared to Monaco before all the facts came out regarding the Administration. As far as I know he hasn't been in the public eye since. Not in Glasgow anyway. So he's still the villain in all this, and still alot of bad feeling towards him. But you're right, maybe we could be fleeced again and nothing happen to them. Who knows. You read about people being killed and hurt for much less on the news.

That's all dependant on whether Greens a crook. Who knows If he will fleece us. He would be a brave man. We have made a fortune in season ticket sales, aswell as losing pretty much every single high earner we had. Our wage bill will be small compared to our revenue just now. Still the likes of Boca, Edu and Goian to leave aswell. Also judging by the TV viewing figures so far this season, SKY won't be investing as much into Scottish football because quite simply, the interest isn't there. So looks like the SPL will be going bust if they don't get Rangers into the top flight in the next year or 2. Unfortunately, Celtic will be alright. Their crowds will probably dwindle but if they can get £6m for someone as average as Ki then they're doing well!
