If rangers want to go to the courts I say let them; open the books to the court and let everyone see exactly what has been going on over the last 20 years, let the law of the land decide your fate. I would be happy with that. Your club would be utterly destroyed, not facing a few piddling sanctions.

Wishfull thinking. If they are keeping quiet it's because they are hoping to shift as many STs as possible before they vote newco into the big league and alienate some of their fans. They may well impose some punishment on rangers, but it'll be in the SPL

Eh? A 14 team league would result in 36/40 or 38 games, a 16 team team league gives 30?

se7en (pence in the pound)

Well, quite. The blue meanies will sail through this whole quagmire (giggity giggity) unscathed and the first time there's a blip with Hearts (who, remember have paid everyone their dues), they will face the Doncaster Death Ray.

It means dont eat cheese before bedtime

The 40% is meaningless drivel; there isn't a club in Scotland outside of the OF who reach anywhere near their potential simply because of the OF - fans don't turn out for The Rest because no one is interested in the chase for 3rd. Find a way to change that and you might see 17,000 - 18,000 at Pittodrie, Tynecastle, Easter Road or 10,000 - 12,000 at Tannadice, Fir Park, Rugby Park for the odd game not involving the OF (and not involving the local rival). The single reason that we don't see these grounds full(ish) now and again is solely because there are never the Big Games to bring out the occasional, lapsed or glory hunting fans and that is due entirely to the OF hegemony.

All of the above, I was just enjoying the larffs at their pain. Now I want them dead, I don't want a Clone Ranger anywhere near Scottish football. If, as Chic The p***k states, they have so many fans they could set up their own league, all the glory hunting masses in Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh etc can have their own version of the clan, playing each other week in week out with the thousands all turning out. They could call it it the Rangers Only Football League

ANdy Goram both speaking shite as well as usual

You've been watching too much Doctor Who ETA I suggested about 500 pages ago they fuckoff to Corby as it's the biggest RFC supporters club outside Scotland - the fact it is about 250 miles south of the Scottish border makes it even more appealing. This court of session shite makes me think 250 miles isn't nearly far enought

They can't do that without the express permission of the english fa who wont sanction it without the express permission of the scottish fa who will never agree to it

Hibbeejibbee - isn't it the case if a club goes to the civil courts that the entire association faces expulsion UNLESS they boot the offending club thefuck out of said association or at least apply penalties of such draconian levels that the club will wish they had been kick ed thefuck out? arseholeb*****dcunts doesn't even come close to describe how stupid these fuckers are

just under a billion quid :lol:

Promising start Megaorc

Is that a Big Jock Knew contract

That won't be enough though, for either arse cheek - their 50,000 and 60,000 crowds were built on the understanding that they are major European players, as the realisation sinks i that they aren't even mid ranking European players their glory hunting hordes will fuckoff like sna' aff a dyke and likely return to the 80s numbers

What rangers (and celtic) did through the 90 and 2000s was to strangle the life not just out of Scottish football but also themselves. They created a hype around their spending that brought in a regular attendance and commercial income beyond anything they had seen in their histories, but was entirely unsustainable because it was based on ego and not fact. They saw a golden egg based on what was happening in England & Europe and allowed themselves to be suckered into spending money they didn't have in the idiotic belief they were major players in the European 'market place' . They never were and never will be, and celtic, to their credit, realised that before the ibrox morons, early enough at least to stop the haemorrhaging but at the same time have seen nearly 20% of their fans drift away in a few years without the hype with the likelihood of more going over the next few years. No 8's contention that The Rest depend on the OF is entirely arse over tit and is the ramblings of the same self serving hype that has left 'his' club completely fucked; if the OF had played fair ( and legally) over the last 20 years it's likely that Aberdeen, Hearts, United and others wouldn't have completely raxed themselves trying to keep up and would still be genuine challengers. If Sky had been around in the 1980s & 1990s Aberdeen, Hearts & United would all have been major TV draws because they were all in the mix even though the cheating had already begun in Govan. TV isn't to blame for the demise of Scottish football, that charge lies fair and square at the door of the OF and their self serving ego trip, they have fucked our game and the only redeeming aspect in that is going to be watching them both go through the wringer in the next few years.

Galloway is the epitome of the old joke; look up cûnt in a dictionary and his picture will be there

This is the problem that RM has given us. It could be a really bad alias but thanks to my exposure to RM over the last few months I can believe it is genuinely one of them complete with frontal lobotomy scars

The Orange County Loyal?

Absolutely breathtakingly delusional. In any other country in the World I imagine these nutjobs would be alien abductees

RM is a hoot most of the time but I am genuinely astounded with the litany that Scotland, not just Scottish football, is under threat from some diabolic kafflik and/or irish republican illumaniti whose sole purpose would appear to inflict their agenda (presumably a kind of Spanish Inquisition era catholicism) on the population of Scotland by removing a football team from our top division. Surely the folks posting this drivel are P&B fifth columnists having a larff, no one could genuinely be that stupid. Could they?

Get It Right Fucking Up Ye Justice is alive and well and currently resides in Scotland

What, he didn't even lube it for them? You have had it!
