hellbhoy Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Rangers till I die is slowly turning to Rangers till July for their 'fans'. Can't wait to see their newly refurbished Tesco Arena with a whopping 2000 when they have their intense derby against Queen's Park. YEH ! the battle of the 50,000 seater stadiums in the 3rd division PMSL.Must be a record in any league ? 2 stadiums with 50K capacity in the bottom league . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wokcomble Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Smith and his cardigan mob will make the fans boycott to sell the club to them,might take time but by the time Christmas is here Green will be looking at a virtually empty stadium every other week and hemorrhaging money left right and centre.They know what they are doing even if they get control of the club for next season. so by xmas time there could be a newco newco !? on yersel Hughie, magic 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot believe that Rangers fans have fallen for this Smith nonsense. Where was he before the CVA decision? He has let Green try and sort out his and others mess ,now here he is the returning hero who was letting Rangers die, if it were not for Green, like him or not that would have happened. The other story about players not wanting to play for Green,fair enough let them find other clubs. The idea that they will stay under Smith on hideously high wages is just another piss take on all the people/ companies that have not received payments they were due. You could make a film about this farcical situation and believe it was a comedy classic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forever Diamond Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 (edited) Absolute and total bollox re the Bankies scenario. The Clydebank fans had raised the capital to keep the club - John Hall, then owner, sold to Ballantyne for the same amount, £35,000, if I remember correctly, and Clydebank were renamed as Airdrie United. David Low (he of Celtic connections, was floating about at the time, and was one of those who wanted to take Clydebank to Dublin and rename them Dublin City). Much skullduggery along the lines, so let's not try and re-write history a la Rangers style, Jim Ballantyne and his Airdrie cronies killed off Clydebank. You just quoted it yourself,John Hall sold to Ballantyne.so if they had a gripe,it was with him.Hall could have said no if he had the Bankies fans best interests at heart.Clydebank were desperate to find a new home,they had no proper stadium,as you said they tried to relocate to Ireland but this was blocked by the SFA,SFL and FAI..Jim Ballantyne actually paid around £160k for the club,he outbid the Clydebank fans offer.So it proves what i said in that John Hall didn't have the bankies best interests at heart as the money was more important. As for not cheating anyone,we haven't,i stick by that...we weren't liquidated for not paying tax or NI,and as i also pointed out CLYDEBANK still exist,we gave them the name back to start afresh.Something that will never be able to happen to Airdrieonians as we went out the game completely.

You could make a film about this farcical situation and believe it was a comedy classic. They already have fallen for it and first I heard of it was on the newsnight special and that was only hours after the Green sale of assets. The rankers already know that Greenback is an asset stripper and Walter is well ! the coming Messiah and will make sure the sectarian signing policy will return and no other team will ever lift another Scottish trophy ever again. Smith was no where near the CVA till Green had secured the club.Think about it ! why go into a bidding war when you can acquire the club within a year at no extra cost.Green could end up making a loss now as one mental fanatic fan would actually possibly kill him ! shocking I know but this is a reality of some of their support towards their club. Smith's move was perfectly timed at the last minute to give the orcs real hope of rankers minded folk running the club the way they feel it should be run !

King Kong Bundy Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Why are they making 'every effort' to keep McCoist? He is a terrible manager who should be on panel shows. They should be doing cartwheels upon his supposed resignation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broken Algorithms Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Yep, I can 100% assure you there is no similarity whatsoever between the case. That logic is utter bollocks and the man is an idiot/self serving charlatan. Were Rangers to be compared to any business entity which has collapsed, it would be Enron. Both cases have a startling financial business models which led to misleading figures being reproduced over time, masking the root problems. Also, both involve serious misjudgements involving governence in controlling these businesses. Sadly, Enron died a death while Rangers continue to be kept alive by utter cretins such as Doncaster who clearly have nothing but financial motivations despite past failings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simplistic Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Not sure if answered in this behemoth of a thread, but does the rangers situation differ from the airdrie one? Will Rangers have to apply like they did to take a place in SPL or Div 3? im sure they would be voted in but is the percent already set for how Scottish Football deals with clubs who enter into Liquidation? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will Rangers have to apply like they did to take a place in SPL or Div 3? im sure they would be voted in but is the percent already set for how Scottish Football deals with clubs who enter into Liquidation? Airdrie bought another clubs league share, Sevco5088 (soon to be "The" Rangers) have applied for the old league share of Rangers 1872 (no "The") There is no precedent set for this, there have however been mulitiple postponed meetings by the SPL to discuss / try and ignore the topic. There is likely to be much posturing and general fannying about by the football authorities before Sevco5088 eventually end up in the SPL with a slapped wrist for the start of next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeeHectorPar Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 http://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/scotsol/homepage/sport/spl/4376148/Two-year-plan-to-rescue-Rangers.html So Sir Walter is coming to save Ra Gers but doesn't really have anything to do with the bid. Things are going to happen in the next 48 hours but his saintliness is on holiday in France. Ra Gers must be saved at any cost but not if that cost involves money. It just shows how serious these chancers are about their beloved club. There will be limitless funds available for buying second-rate crappy foreign players but we mustn't overspend on the most important factor of the whole deal the club itself.

But before they bought Clydebank, they were having to apply for a place in Div 3 and lost out to Gretna, so my question is why did Airdrie Utd have to apply and why could they not just transfer the league position like Rangers are trying to do? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyrshireTon Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 1339796387[/url]' post='6340804']Simpler than that. Newco's bid to get admitted to the SPL fails, Dundee get promoted. Newco applies to the SFL, and take up Dundee's old spot in the First Division. The Powers that Be (and Traynor) will probably also tell us this was the best possible solution as it punishes Rangers while minimising the disruption for the rest of the SFL clubs. Or maybe I'm just getting to the morose stage of drunkenness .... Won't happen. A precedent has been set already - the two losing play off finalists (Airdrie and Stranraer) will go up. Along with Dundee, they must be doing their collective nuts wondering what league they are going to be in. Will the SFL put clubs X, Y and Z in their fixture lists? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
