Over the decades, I've learned that nearly all of the suits in fitba are wankers.

None of them will keep me from supporting my team.

Apart from when you were a Dumbarton fan, of course.

With all the activity in Rangers shares, people leaving the board, new Chief Exec even if temporary, would be good to know how the club can move ahead.

I think the view of Rangers supporters would be little different to that of most other footballer fans when deciding which board members to trust to do the right thing for the club.

Who are the board members who can be trusted to do the best for the club?

And which shareholders can you trust to be honest and open in representing the club to the exclusion of personal benefit?

Not sure about the top sentence, because you missed the question about the school attended by any prospective board members.

That's my greatest fear

My greatest hope would be that they get fucked hard i.e: 3rd Division and that scientist clone 5 Jim McLean's & 5 Alex Ferguson's (age circa 40) to manage us "diddy" teams and Celtic end up relegated by a record points margin !

Repeat after me 'There is no Santa Claus.' 100 times, thank you.

I had to switch off Radio Scotland. Brown is way out of his depth.What do you know john..?JB...everything.Yes but specifically what did you know?JB...I know everything. I was proven 100% correct.Yes John but what were you correct about?JB...Itold you....EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!And so on and so on

I know I'm a day behind here, but I'm usually further out than that, so I'll press on anyway. I just listened to the Brown/English thing on the Podcast. I'm a huge fan of Tom English - I think he's pretty measured, writes well and is usually correct. I also consider John Brown to be a bit of a moronic tool whose comments last month about how Scotland should deal with Gareth Bale were disgraceful. However, I'd actually say that Brown emerged from last night's exchange with more credit. He had obviously been stung by English's comments at the time of his Dundee appointment and I thought English should probably have offered an apology for the snidey tone he'd adopted at the time. Instead he continued with the cheap shots, saying at one point "I don't imagine you'll read my paper". I thought it was bullying and unpleasant. Obviously, Brown's vindication for last summer's Ibrox performance is, as yet, less total than he's claiming, but there's no doubt that his claims are looking ever less ridiculous. I listened in expecting to cringe every time Brown spoke, but found myself doing it more often when hearing from English.

That's pretty much how I saw it. I was expecting JB to come across a buffoon but English came over a right smarmy little tosser until nearer the end.

And your legal backgorund is?

No one knows how this play out, so stop posting as if you're in the know. You read some pish on Celtic websites and blogs and think you're an expert.

In my opinion fraud has been committed, by whyte and quite possibly by D&P (though they'll have covered their tracks well) and Greenco. The implications may well affect us badly and several other factions in Scottish football.

Just stop this being in the know crap.

Hey ! I never said I was in the know Benny,I just threw in some other possibilities no one may thought about and I don't read or post shite from blogs fucknugget.

I simply put that Sir Minty is no mug either and if any fraud goes back to the sale of Rangers to Whyte then Murray will probably get the club and it's assets back.Then everything else there after will have the some of feck all to do with the club and people get fucked over by Whyte and Green for their money in fraudulent behaviour.

But don't worry petal I'm sure the SFA are working very hard indeed to rewrite their association rules as we speak to save the club and separate it from the club itself now but it will still be the very same club according to them .

That's the longest tedi has gone without posting ? Is he ahmed as well ?.........

[Bendarroch]

Apart from when you were a Dumbarton fan, of course.

And you must be a Cheltic 'Thistle' fan.

Obviously.

Re: Ahmed gone

you can all get to ****!

ally and walter have been screaming for the chairman to screw me over like this and though they haven't put any of their own dosh in and now they've done it!

this is neh good.

despite the fact i together with charles rebuilt this club they've now got their mitts on it.

total shyte basically.

i honestly believe without me their only chance of success is succeeding at running RIFC into the ground before the year's out.

apparently they aren't going to chop the budget at murray park. 10M for that place for a division 2 team with an inept manager being paid 750k a year.

rumors are ally will now get his way, get to keep his mates and sign a bunch of 30 year old's for next season. basically me you we're all ****ed.

honestly, this is basically SHYTE.

SHYTE like WHYTE. Proper SHYTE!

p.s. **** OFF!

On ff too ? Surely not.

[Pike]

FFS He's got 322, that's three hundred and twenty two, criminal charges pending........go on, let him be your man just for the rest of us in case it's another shite summer

I do not recall any such condition.

He may well have committed fraud but this would relate IMO to the deal he did with ticketus, he deliberately defrauded ticketus, if anything this would be ticketus would have a claim on Whytes assets which may including the PLC but that company was insolvent and ceased trading with its assets legally sold by the administrators.

Is that what Ahmad allegedly wrote?

Are his written communication skills really that weak, or was he getting into character for the FF readership?

Trolling on ff to wind up the faithful.

I don't think anybody can be that stupid as to be taken in by that.

Never know though.

[wunfellaff]

Another shyster forced out and no I was the 1st to report this, you are only 24 hours behind.

Well done. You have a time machine.

The post you reported 24 hours ago was at 2.11 today.....

Another poor effort tedi after the King and Bayern shambles of last night that forced you offline.

That's the ff stuff from a now banned poster. Same style as the rm posts , "neh" etc...

Here's some of the rm stuff....

Green, Ahmad, and a seemingly endless stream of connections

by Shane Nicholson | Executive Editor

First off, the people asking for clarification on "sources" or whatever else you want in relation to The Rangers Standard's and our own reporting on Imran the other day, I don't know what to tell you beside take it at face value and move on. If you don't believe it now then you never will. But let's get down to brass tacks, shall we?

The links (tentacles, if I may) connecting Imran, who we all must know now was the man that put this deal together, and his Zeus-related investors don't string a long line back to Octupus and therefore Ticketus. It's been common knowledge for a while to people who've taken the time to pull that together, and I acknowledge them silently here.

My first indication of any shady dealings involving the acquisition of Rangers by Charles Green, et al came during a rather innocuous conversation during a round of golf late last summer by a friend "in the know," if I can steal that turn of phrase back from Imran for a moment.

This was not a man aligned with either side of the Old Firm in any way whatsoever; just a person whose career is in finance and investment, and whose paths had crossed with x and y at various places while our whole storied ordeal was being carried out in the red tops of Scotland.

He was the first one to mention a "loan" to me in regards to Green (and I'm just going to use Chuck's name as a placeholder from herein for the parties involved in the takeover) from rather covered places that was used to facilitate the purchase of Rangers.

His thoughts were that the loan had been procured, or at least set up, by someone close to the business dealings of our former owner, Craig Whyte, and that the loan itself had originated from circles close to the Ticketus hierarchy, which includes a rather precarious link to MetroBank, a name a fair few people digging around these parts surely uncovered long ago.

Now, there are a load of implications and information to unload here, but they all become a bit redundant when it gets down to the crux of the matter: Who were the people orchestrating the Green takeover of Rangers and why? Taken on the whole, and given the revelations of the past few days, it becomes a bit more visible if you care to take a look.

To be clear, I'm not implying that Craig Whyte has any sort of legitimate claim on anything pertaining to the Club. Worthington Group's recent involvement I would suggest is speculative at best. They're taking a flier on making some cash on the backside of a deal, one in which they have very little to lose.

But the facts as I see them paint a rather shaky ground upon which Green and his friends came to take hold of Rangers, from the financial mechanisms employed to complete the deal to the obtuse efforts by the local Duff & Phelps branch to ensure a "satisfactory" outcome was attained by their client, Craig Whyte.

What we've got is Shyster v. Shyster when it comes down to it, and it's not pleasant viewing for anyone who's taken the time sketch it all out. But I hope, finally, in the coming weeks we'll have a better picture of how this all came to be.

And just to be clear, I don't feel this will impact Rangers on the pitch in any sort. If I did, I'd have wrote it months ago. But Green and Imran and their backers have a case to answer to the SFA and various other investigators at this point, including the pending BDO court case against our administrators. It's easy to play the game when it's someone else's money involved; not so easy when judicial outlets get their hands on deck.

I just hope come next summer we can spend time talking about signings and the rest instead of a myriad of off-the-pitch issues. I think we've a long few months ahead, friends. But we will pull through. We will come out the better. We will be Rangers, then, now and forever.

Every little thing's gonna be alright.

2nd para......silently acknowledges the disgraced lawyer, thomo, cartjuga et al.... who would've thought.

[Bookies Love Me]

I like they way mr nicholson sounds, in part, like any other rangers supporter.

To paraphrase: "We don't care what happens off the field. It won't affect what happens on the pitch. We're just looking forward to next season and the new signings. Remember, we are the people!"

What a f*cking moron, playing to the basest instincts of the baying mob!

Also, why do they have to keep spouting the pish line "We will be rangers, then, now and forever."?

Is the attention span of your average rangers supporter that short that they have to keep reminding themselves who they are?

8.39 is not 2.11 HTH

It was the little rodent`s shambles with King I just corrected him, followed by you.

and the Bayern thing was obviously a joke, the Peterhead fan never did have much of a sense of humor but even he got it.

Really you need to try harder.

Same as your Five Stars debacle was a wind-up, eh, Tedi Pelucia?
