  1. Sexaul partners are a subject which cause as much emotional activies in human beings as sports teams. If someone changes sexual partner from their first ever attachment does that mean they should no longer be taken seriously on the subject of sexual activity ever again?

    Ask Vicky - "dear Joan" thread for this pish please. If you recall, this is a point n laff at the buns goin bust

  2. I cannot speak for others but I can give you an insight to how it feels to lose a club.

    The club I was emotionally attached to were destroyed in a merger. I still cannot muster up the same attachment to the new club.

    The first two or three seasons I pretended there was no merger, it was a take over of a lesser club. Eventually I accepted that I was wrong and changed my loyalties to the new club. Others stopped supporting the club at the time of merger, some have returned, some will die without seeing them play.

    Emotions are nothing but chemical reactions in the brain, people react differently due to their learned responses. Some will accept the torment and carry it with them. Others, who are stronger, will move on with their lives and proiritise more import issues than a game which they are not even participants.

    Why do you let the success or failure of others affect your emotional state? Are you not strong enough to control it? Would it not be more logical to take control and remove torment from your life?

    The former Rangers fans seemed to have no bother changing over to Sevco - stop whingeing :lol:

  3. Do they not need Deloitte's and the NOMAD's approval to launch another 'public share' issue?

    How can the NOMAD approve it when the issue is simply to cover the club's running costs?

    Interesting to know what the bears think will happen if they do starve the spivs out ....

    This could get real ugly, very soon.

    I believe on about 20k STs and a fresh share issue that the hedge funds can survive the season - there is no need for further public issue.

    They'd only be selling more to existing shareholders - the motion for authority for a further public issue was lost at last AGM anyway - the brothers Grimm/Laxey in cahoots with vague BPH/Margita blocked that.

    I'd luv them to go bust but can envisage they'll survive 2014/15

  4. I'd say the 17,000 ST renewals is bad news for both the Club's BoD's & the Union of Fans in respect that the figure is too low for one party and too high for the other...........The money raised potentially doesn't get the Club over the line for the coming season but it's enough to prolong the current Boards stay for the Union of fans.

    Stalemate continues.

    17k plus selling more shares limps them financially over the line - spivvy win

  5. No!,but wait, maybe they'll ,send another message to the board?..or form another fans group,,,or wait on King,,,,or the blue knights,,,or March on Hampden, or another card display, or deliver postcards, or bring out another scarf.......they've all worked fantastically well in the past.

    Marching season is on - the Union of Fuds have one scheduled for the 19th July - bring yer own piece of red paper to wave at an empty building

  6. The brothers Grimm on a wee holiday???:

    "Rangers directors hold showdown talks in London as they try to stave off more financial chaos at Ibrox"

    http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/rangers-directors-hold-showdown-talks-3668192

    Record Sport can reveal brothers Sandy and James Easdale travelled to meet with representatives of shareholders groups Blue Pitch Holdings and Margarita Holdings before staging further discussions with the rest of the Ibrox regime yesterday afternoon.

    Talks will continue at 10.30am today at an official board meeting to be held in the offices of the club’s financial advisers, Daniel Stewart.

    The Easdales flew out of Glasgow yesterday on a morning flight to the docklands’ City Airport. Coincidentally on the same flight were the club’s shamed former finance director Brian Stockbridge and axed PR guru Jack Irvine.

    Rangers sources insisted last night that Stockbridge’s presence was ‘purely coincidental’ although all four were spotted chatting together in the departure lounge before boarding.

    On arrival in London, Stockbridge was seen heading for a train while the Easdales left in a taxi cab.

    But it’s understood the brothers were then involved in talks with the same mysterious investors who helped fund the £5.5million takeover which saw Charles Green, Stockbridge and Imran Ahmad seize control of the club’s assets two years ago.


    Blue Pitch and Margarita are now supporting the Easdales and sources claimed last night they will be willing to plough more money into a fresh share issue if, as widely expected, the club requires an urgent injection of cash after a dramatic slump in season-ticket sales.

    It’s understood chief executive Graham Wallace later met with the Easdales after flying back to Britain from a supporters convention in Canada.

    Wallace declined to answer fans’ questions when asked how many season tickets have been sold. Sources close to the board insisted last month 20,000 fans had renewed.

    Meanwhile, generous fan George Letham, who stumped up £1m in emergency cash to keep the club out of trouble in February, has still not had his loan repaid.

    Under the terms of his loan the money was supposed to be returned as soon as sufficient funds had dropped into the club’s account from season-ticket sales.

    And with June’s wage bill still to be covered at the end of this month, the regime’s need to secure fresh funds seems increasingly urgent.

    But before jetting back across the Atlantic for yesterday’s London talks, Wallace insisted on the club’s website that Rangers finances are not a cause for alarm. And he insisted fans can expect to see more new signings soon.

  7. I think to suggest 5,000 is on the low side........

    However, their STs went on public sale today. So if you were feeling particularly anally retentive, you could go on the website and count the number of seats sold/unsold to date!!!!!!!:

    Certainly looks like there is plenty availability for those swayed by Wallace's and Elbows' propaganda from yesterday

  8. My only question is why Laxey etc don't just be done with it by selling the footballing division to Dave King or some fan group for £1?????

    Just keep hold of the assets in lieu of the massive sums owed by the International to the parent company and then rent them back to DK's Rangers or whoever. Let them suk-up the massive ongoing losses that division is gonna incur to keep their beloved 'Rangers' name alive.

  9. This type of line has been spun before, yet still Laxey and the Easdales bought more shares, they did not make sure that clause enabling them to buy more was put in place at the last AGM for nothing and it was not by accident that it was mentioned yet again with the 120 day review.

    What you say there simply seems to reinforce my earlier observation about being compelled to keep going. Going back to the house renovation analogy, you can't just stop half way through before the project is something that can be sold-on.

  10. The only people who will put money in is the spivs, they have already shown over and over an appetite to increase their stranglehold.

    Stranglehold over what Tedi? The big money has already left the building and is a pile of bricks in Normandy/chez McSalary, etc.

    The assets are safely secured with the company but I can't see an enourmous worth in them. They're still gonna have to be rented-out to The Rangers or The The Rangers MkIII or whatever the footballing divion of the business is called. As is plain, that division is a lemon which seems only capable of competing in sporting terms by consistently overspending.

  11. Not having that much of a clue myself SN, isn't the theory that investors who previously bought-in at full price are compelled to keep going now................when they buy into the 2nd issue at, say, 25p then the average they have paid per share of their portfolio actually reduces.

    If/when the clumpany make the top division and become a more viable and valuable entity, then you have the prospect of being able to sell-up at a profit (or exiting without much of a loss at least). The alternative of not ploughing in more is the greater evil if it means you are gonna lose 100% of your original punt should things go completely tits-up.

    It is the proverbial money pit where you've gotta keep going to finish off the project. A silly analogy might be a (big) house renovation where you've gotta finish it off despite mounting costs in order to have some sort of finished asset at the end.
