Why would you go on this thread when you haven't seen it after the 2am showing? Puzzling behaviour. Anyway, somewhat fitting a hit and miss end to a hit and miss series. Never saw that coming with Olly.

Some good early business by you guys so far. Wighton will probably be a complete revelation or end up back at Dundee in a couple of months in a huff, probably not much room for middle ground on that one though and prepare for it all it be your fault if it goes wrong. Afraid to say I'm pretty ignorant of a lot of the teams down here apart from the basics. Confident of challenging for the play-offs? Should be a very interesting league with 4 or 5 teams challenging for what you imagine will be two play off spots.

What a match that was. England actually have an exciting ODI team that takes risks and entertains.

I wasn't fully enamoured by it but totally agree it should have been the final scene, but then that would've possibly left them too much to get through next week. The climatic scene was even worse upon second viewing, slightly dodgy cgi and what can only described as amateur hour editing. Perhaps the two were related. Think it would've been better and a bit more badass if they'd given her a whip.

I,for one, could not have possibly predicted the amount of hilarity newco Rangers have provided us with over the last three years. Hopefully the next three are just as fruitful.

Happy Liquidation Day to our Sevconian friends for tomorrow.

After so long being a shambles, Aberdeen really are "doing it right" on so many levels. Good luck for next season. I'll miss my stroll along to Pittodrie, even if we often came away empty handed. Prob take in a European game or two in July.

Kinky getting tucked into his Friday night Pape and making an arse of it?

Surely however much they've coughed up has zero bearing on whether it's in the club's(no laughing at the back) interests or not to pay off an outstanding debt. Why even mention it?

Bonus marks to Spy for squeezing in a "thundercunt" as well.

Why are we still paying McCoist? @RichwilBBC: A: company entered into a contract with the ex-manager. Company has an obligation. We’re honouring the contract. We’re doing the right thing Hmmm.

The man who brought us the concept of ‘overinvesting’ is now talking of spending (an additional) £5m – £10m if necessary to get out of the Championship and then goes on to say money will not be squandered. Priceless.

"As a business man I was alert to the risk" Were you, aye? The risk of making more money?

I can see this argument with the latter loans Benny, but the essence of my discussion with Tedi is that it is unfair and disingenuous to describe the original retail agreement as being signed in similar circumstances. Rangers agreed to it because they wanted to and/or had to. For all Charlie's faults I don't think you'd describe him as Ashley's placeman.

Bring back Chuckles and his little friend. Absolute top trolling and they had the bears lapping up that nonsense the same way they lap up King's shite now.

Round and round we go. In the infamous phrase, "Craig Whyte was Rangers". Same applies to Chuckles when he, presumably, signed the retail agreement. The fact you dinnae like him now or he's got a big hoose in France is neither here nor there.

I'm not claiming to to know if it's a great deal or not , just saying it didn't sound that bad to me when you factor in SD are doing all the work. I'm sure our deal with JD was rumoured to be even worse(yes I know, we are not the people). These large scale manufacturers seem to have clubs, well diddy clubs anyway, over a barrel now and the days of you purchasing a strip out the club shop and most of that money finding it's way back to the club seem long gone. Whether you like it or not the fact remains that Rangers knowingly entered into this perfectly legal commercial agreement and to be constantly greeting about like the terms now seems like a lot of tears over some spilt milk. Fair play to G&S if he finds a way out of it, but I'm not convinced he's doing anything apart from howling at the moon.

Aye, but is the £3.50 based on the 51% or 76%? Fiver a shirt for doing hee haw, whilst not being great, doesn't sound that bad to me tbh.

Tbf I don't really see what Ashley gained from today, unless it's just an expensive trolling exercise? The details will probably come out anyway and he's just tacitly reinforced King's dubious claims about the original retail agreement.

So it was a different agreement in January the judge referred to? Genuinely confused.

Tedi, was the agreement signed in January you were referring to this? http://www.londonstockexchange.com/exchange/news/market-news/market-news-detail/12227853.html If so that has nothing to with the original Rangers retail agreement that you claim was signed by "Fat Mike's employees", and it only refers to the extra 26% that was given to SD for the duration of the SD loan. Yet to see any evidence of coercion or wrong doing relating to the original retail agreement.

Is that not likely to be the agreement with MASH that altered the %'s for the duration of the loan rather than the initial rangers retail agreement?

I got my first decent bike less than a year ago and was the same. Struggled to do anything over a few miles at first without breathing out my arse. Don't get close to the distances some of the guys on here do on their road bikes but I can still rattle off some fairly half decent runs now. You'll be fine after a few weeks.

Ah possibly. Still find it hard to believe that Rangers were forced or coerced into signing the retail agreement. Maybe they made a bad decision at the time, but that's an entirely different matter.

Was it? The Rangers Retail agreement was signed by Charlie and Co, was it not? Don't think he was ever employed by SD, but don't let the facts get in the way.
