Whether your hunch is right or not, removing the prospect of losing money due to the litigation is as good as making it in this instance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s fair. If you make nothing from this and lose nothing but man hours it’s a win as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squonk Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 (edited) It would make interesting reading if somebody had compiled a list of every instance of litigation involving the current club playing out of Ibrox since it was defecated onto the planet in 2012. I know a lot of them were instigated either by or against Rangers 2012 while trustworthy Dave 'Litigation' King was custodian, and his revolving courtroom door policy was an abject failure, but if you also include all the legal cases involving Duff & Phelps employees plus Charles Green's crew, you're talking huge numbers and huge losses for the fledgling new football club operating company. The multi-million pounds of public money pissed up against the Ibrox walls is unforgivable. A profit and loss litigation balance sheet would highlight the absurdity of both Charles Green's bizarre contracts and Dave King's futile attempts to unpick them, armed only with staunchness.

Most passionate I suppose is just the shite that most clubs come out with. But as it happens, we’re dealing with a club with an ‘everyone, anyone’ campaign designed to stop people from losing the head at anyone that isn’t a fat, bald Protestant. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even ignoring that they are possibly the most intolerant fan base in Scotland literally no club in Scotland can really claim this, Scotland isn't really a massively diverse country in the grander scheme of things and foreign interest in the Scottish leagues is minimal. A truly bizarre claim. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to give Rangers the benefit of the doubt, you could claim some sort of diversity, if you restrict yourself to the first team squad, rather than the fanbase. The 35 players listed on Wikipedia's article come from 15 different footballing nations, which is a reasonable spectrum. For comparison, Celtic have 31 players from 16 nations, Hibs have 27 players from 13 nations and Arsenal have 35 players from 20 nations, so it's not exactly atypical for 21st century fitba, and certainly not 'the most diverse' club, but the writer of the puff piece must have had some sort of idea in his head when he wrote it, mustn't he? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally one would condemn that level of dishonesty But, given that the target audience are of marketing, advertising and brand management professionals for whom a highly creative approach to the truth is simply part of the job, it's probably fair play in this instance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Master Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Quote Livingston new boy Mo Sangare sat out Monday’s friendly against Queen’s Park after pitching up at the WRONG stadium. The Liberia international had been down to start the 1-0 win at Lesser Hampden but made an embarrassing blunder after believing the match was taking place at the Tony Macaroni Arena. The 24-year-old, who joined on a two-year deal from Accrington Stanley last month, still managed to make it to Glasgow before kick-off but was left to watch from the sidelines. https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-transfer-news/mo-sangare-botchesd-livingston-debut-30453440 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVIFOREVER Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 20 minutes ago, The Master said: https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-transfer-news/mo-sangare-botchesd-livingston-debut-30453440 Was wondering why Sean Kelly started in place of him, thought he must've injured himself in the warm ups. Can see we're going to have to treat him like Efe Ambrose, can't be trusted making his way to away stadiums. Someone had to drive Efe to Hampden for our cup final against St Johnstone, to make sure he got there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
