cyderspaceman Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 When was the last time that iBroke had a crowd of 38000 + in a cup game that didn't involve Celtic, just wondering..... Mostly East Fife fans, imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyderspaceman Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Not a Simpsons fan then? Yes, actually, but obviously not ardent enough. Don't pay for Sky, so if recent not my fault. If an old episode, mea culpa.. Where's that dug? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 There was a similar crowd for a Scottish cup replay v Hibs in 2008. I think...If not that one of the other Hibs matches before that, as they got the whole of the Broomloan stand. Cheers dude. Maybe rapeepul should have follow followed a bit earlier..... *point scoring disclaimer* 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyderspaceman Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Please do us a favour - can you organise a boycott of the Queens Park away support never to come to Ibrox? I think we'll survive the loss of the 25 ticket sales, but it will protect your demands for integrity and that's the most important thing. Aye, they're just a wee diddy team , with a big stadium they can't fill. Unlike Sevco, they have an illustrious history , and a reputation for honesty and fair play. They have gone further in an English FA competition than any OTHER Scottish club who might hanker to do likewise. I think the Spiders will still be here in 100 years time. Sevco are brand new and won't last. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madeirabhoy Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Google it - don't be lazy. The BBC were quick enough to investigate Rangers yet they refuse to investigate the evidence of clear conflicts of interest between key personnel openly involved with both Celtic and Footballing authorities. Relegate Celtic to the 3rd Division and allow the rest of Scottish Football to move forward without either pulling the strings omg you are right! i didnt realise that people couldnt be involved with a football club and the football authorities! i thought all people involved with the SFA and SPL couldnt have been involved with a club before! like campbell ogilvie, and gordon smith and lex gold and fraser wishart, and scotland managers like walter smith and alex mcleish oh wait.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiddy Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 From SSN: Ashley eyes Rangers stake Newcastle owner keen on Ibrox investment By Graeme Bailey - Tweet me: @skygraemebailey. Last Updated: August 8, 2012 8:01pm Mike Ashley: Considering buying stake in Rangers Sky Sports understands that Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley is in talks with Rangers' Charles Green over buying a stake in the Glasgow club. When Green bought out the old Rangers and formed the newco, which now plays in the Scottish Third Division, he said that he and his fellow investors did not want any one person to buy any more than 15 per cent. They are in negotiations with a number of parties about taking a share, one of whom is Newcastle chief Ashley - who after being barracked when he first took charge of the North East giants in 2007, has now moulded them into to one of the most astutely run clubs in the Premier League. When asked about the possible involvement of Ashley, Rangers manager Ally McCoist told Sky Sports News HD: "Obviously someone with a proven track record like that, who is a successful businessman, would obviously be a good thing. Ashley to buy stake in Rangers "I don't know whether it's a goer, how much money is involved, what the investment is and things like that." Praise Meanwhile, McCoist has heaped praise on chief executive Green and believes the club is now at its most stable point in some months. The club won their first home game of the season 4-0 against East Fife on Tuesday and McCoist has praised the commitment of Green and the board. He said: "I think we're now at the stage where the club has far more stability than we've had in recent months. "The new owners came in, they were the only party that came up and put their money where their mouths were. "They stood tall and bought the club so in that respect they deserve great support from us and from the fans. "I've watched Charles and I don't have any doubt he's watched me in recent weeks. He has absolutely nailed his colours to the mast in terms of his work ethic and the hours he has put it. "He has done his best for Rangers and fought for the club and represented the club to the best of his ability." McCoist also revealed his working relationship with Green continues to develop as they both stride to take the club back through the leagues in the coming years. He said: "I am a firm believer that the most important relationship at a club is between manager and chief executive. "We are in the very early days but it is growing day by day and we each have a good appreciation of the other's situation within the club. "We are certainly both of the view that we want to take the club forward. "It is time for everyone with the best interests of Rangers at heart to unite and get behind the club. "This is a new chapter for Rangers and we are all looking forward to the challenges ahead. The atmosphere around the stadium has been electric in the past few days and there has been a buzz at the Ticket Centre. "This is just the start of the journey and we will all enjoy it together." 0 0 "I don't know whether it's a goer, how much money is involved, what the investment is and things like that." I think you'll find there'll be zero money going anywhere near you Sally, from any proposed sale of equity. 100% of any quantum will be going straight into the pockets of the Green Knights (of St Columba), whilst the club will still owe £5.5M (+interest) on that loan used to bail them out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam. Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 (edited) Yes, actually, but obviously not ardent enough. The fact you can freely admit this truly embiggens your character in my view. Got to admit though, I thought it was one of Blackadder's made-up words when I green dotted KB. Edited August 8, 2012 by Liam. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archie guevara Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 How fucked up is this? McCoist appealing to fans to buy Season Tickets to avoid redundancies - presumably amongst the support staff, since the playing squad is being increased in size. Granted the article does say that Edu and Bedoya are likely to leave, but are those two on a combined wage similar to the five (Black, Shiels, Kyle, Sandaza and Cribari) that have so far been brought in? PS the article mentions that 20,000 season tickets have so far been sold which isnae bad for a fourth tier team I suppose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best bit is when he says he'd have been as suspicious if Princess Di or Mother Teresa had bought the club as he was of Charles Green. Is that because they're dead, Sally, or is it cos Mother Teresa is from 'the wrong side of the city'..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Showboating up to the usual standard (I was going to say beyond belief, but, with that crowd, nothing is). In truth, it is fuckin disgraceful, pulling in players on mega-wages when there's no need for it, then passing the guilt onto the fans "if we pay the tea-lady aff, then it's all the fans fault for no supporting us." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No8. Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 PS the article mentions that 20,000 season tickets have so far been sold which isnae bad for a fourth tier team I suppose. Not bad considering we had less than a week from receiving the renewal forms to the deadline. The online sales has seemingly been a shambles and there is no credit facility like before. It is also in the middle of the local holiday period and people don't have the money at the moment. IF we have sold 20,000 to date i would be surprised if the final figure is not over 30,000. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
