EdTheDuck Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 If a Sevco MK II has to start again in the Lowland League I think I will die of laughter. I imagine that for the purposes of any admin event the SFA/SPFL will definitely take the view that this is a new club; therefore a 10 point penalty and they won't even drop out of the Playoff places, never mind the SPFL itself 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeithKillie Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 if the club was deducted 10 points the club would not be in the playoffs the club would fall to 5th behind falkirk. however i see a points deduction of 25 points if it happened again because this will be the club's second event. then the remaining players would be left in a relegation battle rather than fighting for a playoff. That would be great!!! Here is hoping. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zidane's child Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I find the deal with Mike Ashley a bizarre one. He gave Rangers a 3 million pound loan in return for securing it against Edmiston House and the Albion car park. Is this a potential business venture for Ashley to open either a store or use the offices as a Scottish base for Sports Direct if Rangers fail to pay back the loan? I say this because when JJB entered liquidation, he acquired their head offices in Wigan and used them for Sports Direct and Flannels (which is another retailer he has a stake in). it seems to me like the deal suits Ashley more than Rangers....could be wrong though.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the 10 points came off right now, but it's likely going to be a bit further down the line if it happens at all. Having said that if there is an admin and it is done properly then Rangers are going to be left with, largely, kids so whether it's a ten or twenty five point deduction probably wont really matter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A win win situation, the supporters of the team currently called Rangers would hopefully get rid of the spivs and parasites that run their club and the overpaid players who are poor value for money. Those same fans would get an exciting end to the season it happens soon to see if their young team can stave of relegation. The rest of us would enjoy eating the popcorn and enjoy watching them fight to retain dignity and stay in the league: whilst hoping they don't but nevertheless respecting them a bit more regardless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skiddy_ys Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/30475395 Rangers, who were founded in 1872, had never played outside the top division from the formation of the Scottish League in 1890 until they were demoted in 2012, a year after winning their 54th Scottish title. Seriously, who writes this crap 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE KING Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Brown - Rangers has FANS in it Last Updated: December 15 2014, 12:49 GMT Former Rangers defender John Brown has warned the Ibrox support that the club's woes will not end with Ally McCoist's resignation. John Brown: Spoken in favour of McCoist The Light Blues' board finally confirmed that McCoist had given 12 months' notice of his intention to quit on Monday morning after a weekend of speculation. The club issued a 7am statement to the London Stock Exchange in which they said they now planned to hold talks with McCoist. They also confirmed the manager's salary would rise to £750,000 for his final year of employment. Reports over the weekend suggested the 52-year-old was quitting in a bid to shift the focus away from his performance as boss and back on to the way the Glasgow giants are being run. But Brown - who was in the same Gers team as McCoist which won nine successive titles - insists Rangers will continue to suffer so long as the likes of Sandy Easdale and Mike Ashley are calling the shots behind the scenes. The former Dundee boss told Press Association Sport: "Ally McCoist has given fans so many happy memories over the seasons as a player and in the recent times where he has given them back-to-back promotions. "He's had to put up with so much. He's had no support. The Easdales and others should hold their heads in shame. "But I honestly couldn't care what the fans are thinking about performances. Their club has a cancer in it and it needs to get cut out. "People need to wise up. Changing the manager is not going to change the situation. Until the Rangers fans realise that, their club is going to be in a sorry, sorry position." Some of the financial figures since the club was reformed in 2012 have been astonishing. It was announced earlier this year that almost £70million had been spent in the first two years following the club's liquidation meltdown. This year's accounts, released last month, show another £8.3million loss and that the club requires a similar sum just to survive until the end of the financial year. Newcastle owner Mike Ashley - who also holds a nine per cent stake in the Light Blues - has given the club a £3million loan but Brown is alarmed at the way the money is being spent. This year's accounts show that former chief executive Graham Wallace earned £378,000 from the day he joined the company on November 20, 2013, until the end of June, almost half of which was a bonus. Wallace also earned a £100,000 pay-off when he quit in October. Former finance director Brian Stockbridge, who left halfway through the season, earned £218,000. The club also stated that Stockbridge earned a £216,000 severance package. Another former chief executive, Craig Mather, received a £350,000 severance deal while ex-director Philip Nash made £131,412 in consultancy fees in the first six months of this year. Meanwhile, around 10 backroom employees were made redundant last month. Brown said: "Ashley has upped his shareholding in recent weeks and brought people in. But then we have seen people with a long service at Rangers, 40 years and more, being shown the door. "All the players know who these folk are - they were part of the family. So when you see that happening so know that things are ultimately just going to end in tears again. "It's soul-destroying. These folk who have left were not on big money but you have got so many people in the boardroom looking after their pals and handing out golden handshakes. It's disgusting." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
