Re: "Does anyone know what songs are deemed sectarian, I really think it would help if someone in the authorities could tell fans what they can't sing"

You know, I thought there was a list to be issued but I can't find anything online.

It would be helpfeul, also, to ascertain exactly what they mean by "sectarianism". There are several definitions you see, and those less- educated will try to "preserve the traditions of the club" by finding some songs which are not considered "illegal".

It should also be noted (to stop the "they're worse than us arguers) that pro-republican songs have recently deemed to be legal. While some may be considered distasteful, etc the crux is that they are not illegal.

Ed007's Note - If you post on the Celtic pages, chances are a Celtic fan will be the editor or someone who knows what they are talking about, all I stated was facts, if I have hit a nerve I do apoligise, but you can not change the facts over your clubs history. The facts are well documented and now after 39 years the clubs fans are still shaming their club by their sectarian bile at games. Celtic are no angels but at least people in Manchester feel safe when they come down.}

This seems to have stirred things up a bit on the 'other' page. The people of Manchester feel safe? Maybe they do, doesn't happen much, they aren't in Europe long enough. PS. English fans aren't exactly angels, Tottenham fans racially abusing Adebayor anyone. {Ed001's Note - what did happen there? It has been glossed over in England as Spurs can do no wrong at the moment in the media.}

AND. . let's not forget that Dave King invested 20million.

If SDM gets £6m for his 85% then King's 8% would be worth around £600K if the takeover goes through.

As an aside though, I feel that the board should take the majority of the flack for the state we find ourselves in. Let's face it- THEY are the ones who were responsible for the day-to-day running of the club!

I have no doubt there will be a Rangers club of some description, but it may not be the same club you know and love. If you will not listen to a concerned Scottish football fan (ok, yes, I am a Celtic fan) then do not complain when it all goes tots up.

You don't have to believe me. All I'm asking is that you ask questions. If you won't do that then don't blame me. .or Neil Lennon!

It seems to suggest he has settled his debt to the SA taxman. .

We will not know anything concrete until is does or does not happen as all shareholder must be given information at the same time. If any information is given beforehand to anyone, the stock exchange will get upset (because the share price wil be affected by an announcement and shareholders could either buy/ sell shares)

Over and out.

Not dissing you mate, I've said it loads before, the stock exchange will get more than upset, it breaks stock market regulations which carries severe penalties. I always told Rangers fans that no news was good news because of these regualtions, but when Rangers are making official statements, there must be something in it. Even heard Bain etc were willing to put the club into administration so they could buy it back for peanuts. That is BS in my opinion simply because administration comes with a points deduction, which would practically kill off Scottish football for next season.

Great result tonight.

Not panicking about the takeover though. From what I understand today, a boardmember has offered further investment in the club. It may or may not be Dave King, although i was under the impression that everything of his was held by the South African taxman?

In anycase, the Rangers board can only delay the takeover, not veto it. That last part is very important to understand. They cannot stop the takeover going ahead.

I'm trying, I really am.

If you think beating DUFC, or even beating Celtic, is important in the grand scheme of things, then you deserve everything that is coming to you. YOUR club is in danger of going the way of the dinosaur and you think a couple of league wins are all that matter.

I'm doing my bit to raise awareness. Are you?

Would this be the same Dave King who was hit with a £250m tax bill? Is it just me or is there a recurring theme here?

Once again, what is it going to take for you to start asking the right questions? The media aren't doing it so it's down to you guys!

If my club was in the position that your club is in (and remember, it almost was - let's be clear, Rangers could find themselves in a far worse place than Celtic were heading for) I would be asking questions. .not simply hoping/ assuming/ guessing that everything will turn out alright.

I guess the question I'm asking is: Do you REALLY care about your club or are you just going to accept the titbits you're being fed by the media. .and worse. .by YOUR club!

Alright Sickbhoy,

Certainly seems weird someone who is allegedly worth as much can't show the moola?

this mystery director with a new idea is either someone else in the wings or someone who wants a share issue for fans to own the club possibly?

Bluegenius. {Ed002's Note - It is not as simple as what the owner is worth, it is a question of how much they will commit to the club.}

Hasn't it always been reported that Whyte was putting in £5m a year + whatever the manager can bring in?

SickBhoy

{Ed002's Note - If that were the case then there is an issue. That would only probably cover transfers. Not any potential loses, not maintenance of the infrastructure (ground, training facilities etc.). I fear there is not enough detail about this yet.}

an ramp up the pressure on the manky mob K

Just seen that myself, wasn't it quoted the guy was worth over £700m? Not ripping the f**h guys but it seems to be getting stranger by the hour. Maybe they think if you win the league it will net more money or maybe there is someone we don't know of waiting in the wings.

All the commite are only delaying the takeover as they know that they will have no job once all is completed my other theroy is that AJ dose not want to sell to whyte as his best mate is Dave King and he would have promised not to change the board setup (ED what is your thoughs or what do you know on this matter) {Ed001's Note - my personal opinion is that they think they can win the league and so go out as champions.}

I've posted a hundred times about why Ellis is so keen to be involved in the take over. He failed himself and now is hanging onto Whytes coat tails, I wouldn't trust him if I was a Rangers fan.

SickBhoy

Mate i don't trust Whyte(simply because he looks shifty). Other than that I don't know enough about the deal or those taking part to say much. Thats why I haven't said much!

The way I see it we have been reducing the debt by quite a few million each year. I would rather see this continue but at a slower rate giving us a couple of million more to use than currently. We would still have relatively small squad but not as small and be just a little more competitive on the wage front. We would then be self sufficient in the foreseeable future and no need for some great benefactor!

Honestly mate 3-0. Stick a tenner on it! Rangers are due a decent win over Celtic. If the big Sweed is playing it might only be 2. But if Rouge or Glenda are playing i think Jelly will 2 much for them.
The previous poster made a good point about John Greg. This guy does care for his club, but you don't know if Bains and ellis are putting ideas in his head because they are going to be out of a job?? If the takeover doesn't happen it will be business as usual Sickbhoy. Winning the title with nae doe. lol

U said: Heard today craig whyte has walked , no agreement could be reached with murray. . . . . . Murray would not except less than 27m its only a rumour but just passing on what ive heard today. . .

Ur now saying: I won't say i told you so , word today is whyte would bring in his own people and some on the board , mcclelland , bain , etc would be forced out!
What I understand is he wasnt prepared to have a fight getting rid of these scroungers , the takeover won't happen now or in the summer.

U received abuse because u deserved it! U said weeks ago Whyte has walked - He, by your own admission, hasn't yet. Therefore you talk c*@p!

Will everyone stop writing a load of rubbish about who McCoist is going to sign. McCoist will have players in mind but until this nonsense is sorted out with the takeover then no approaches will be made to players. Plus the fact that anyone want to come to Rangers will want to know the financial situation before signing.

Players mentioned so far:

Alan Smith - No thanks, he's not had a decent game in 3 years.
C.Berra - 3m - No thanks not worth that money.
V.Weiss - return on loan but I don't think we will pay £2.5m for him unless he is going to be a 1st team regular- loan 50/ 50 - permanent 10/ 90.
Eremenko - Good buy if we pay less than £1m
K.Bartley - will return on loan or sign permanent if part of a deal for McGregor(Arsenal will pay £3.5m plus Bartley).
Foster - will return if Aberdeen don't try and play hard ball over the price.
M.Owen - No chance we will not spend a large part of the wage budget on one player who has not played many games over past 2 years.

My own opinion:
John Sutton - good target man and could be a good replacement if someone comes in for Lafferty. Only doubt is his brother's connection to sceptic.
Goodwille - Could be another option but depending on who leaves and who we bring in paying £2-3m might be too much to spend on one player.
C.Bell - might not come if he is going to be No 2 as he will be offered 1st team football elsewhere.

These are all just my thoughts and I don't think you will hear anything about any signings until the start of July (Bosman's only) and we will not start signing players till nearer the end of the transfer window.(to allow Ally to see who is going and who needs replaced)
