@4: horrible attitude to wish clubs go into admin. they didn't make yours go that way but you take it out on them anyway. It's time Rangers fans stopped with the blame everyone else and wishing ill on other clubs. Pathetic to wish they go into admin for some sort of twisted feeling of revenge or to make you feel better.

Just to update the Hector fan who commented on the coefficency list earlier this week.
The new listed printed on Friday, which drops the season 07/08, and includes the qualification rounds for 2012/13, show the might Rangers as 90th, quite a realistic place for the hectors to be..... Old co or not.
Sorry the bhoys will likely be in the top 50 by the end of the season.

OP you the Calvin Klein that said last night was a sellout when 15% didn't bother to turn up.
You forgot to mention in your haste that Smeltic are now down to 66th even after playing in euro in the 2013 rankings. With the way you roll out the terms 'the big one' 'we won it first' I thought you got points for that every month - no? 45 yrs ago, there are some careers that you can get early retirement at that age and some serious criminals get out of jail before that.
So you acknowledge our history is still standing, ta.

Believable17

He is Rangers till he dies, but does that mean that were are all good enough to be the manager? No... He has had almost 3 years in the job and done jack sh!t. He needs to go now. He is a good ambassidor for the club, but his job is the manager and to get results, something he has struggled to do since he got the job, even with decent players. {Ed039's Note - 3 years? Just over a year as I see it)

ALLY McCOIST says he has not yet invested in Rangers but confirmed he is considering buying a stake in the club.
Reports at the weekend suggested the Ibrox boss owned a share of about about 4.5 per cent after buying into Charles Green's consortium, who purchased the business and assets of Rangers when they were consigned to liquidation in the summer.

Barry rumours probably a lot of cr£p but would love them to be true. Too many people forget how he turned our fortunes round the last time and how he didn't turn his back on the gers like some others but quite the opposite, gers turned their back on him, so apparently we do do walking away,

Right bears, I am probably going to get a stack of grief for this but here goes....GET AFF ALLYS BACK FFS. The man is a legend, he has done more for our club than all of the idiots who post stuff on these pages put together. He has had to put up with so much shiz from whyte / administration / d&p / liquidation / sfa / spl / players / ect,ect,ect and he has done so with dignity and a never say die attitude. The least he deserves is some respect and a bit of backing from the fans. We r still in the cups and we will win the league(even if the start hasnt gone to plan) we r lucky to even have a team so lets jus get behind them.
Believable25

Was it dignified to ask for the identity of the panel when he knew already?

I seem to mind him saying they had a good working relationship with him just before we went into administration.

Take your tongue out his backside and look at the facts.Dignity? Asking for panel members to be named when he knew who they were?Backing Whyte till the last,still will not criticise Murray and jumps on board with Green after a sweetener. A real stand up guy.

I make great cups of tea for the rest of the team in the office, and give the place a good lift when I play jokes on people in the office. My sales figures have been less than 10% of my target for the last 6 months. I am getting sacked and rightly so. It is my job to sell things, it is Allys job to get points and cups, which he is not doing well at all. Not his job to deal with the mess off the pitch, but he has latched on to that to save his job. Time to get rid of an underperforming manager... By the way I dont make the tea in the office.

Ticketus will not give Ally the funds he needs to enhance the squad
He will have to make do with his seven full internationals (sorry - six now that Kirk has gone) for the bottom tier of Scottish football.
He already has more international players than the rest of the three lower divisions put together and still does not feel confident!
Maybe he is putting together a home squad and an away squad

Haha, if Gers got 5 points from every 3 games for the rest of the season, they would still have enough points to make the playoffs, basing the points on past years. Obviously form will increase, and nearing the end of the season the wee teams fatigue will increase, not having the fitness of 5 training sessions a week. So don't sweat it pal.

If Ally cannot get that squad into SFL1 then there's something seriously wrong. More signings?? Ally we're in SFL3 pal, get coaching these young lads and be happy we've managed to keep some experienced lads and brought in the likes of Black, Shields and Sandaza!!!
More signings needed!!! ABSOLUTE JOKE!!!
We are in a position to groom youth and offload heavy earners, basically cut back drastically. All i'm seeing is panic signings and at the end up we'll be left with a squad of ageing foreigners on decent wages, with no sell on value and the youngsters left out...............Have we not been here before??

@1. Inconsistant or not mate i'd rather see the young lads given a chance right now ahead of unknown, ageing foreigners. I don't get this philosephy about these young lads not being ready. When will they ever be ready if they aren't given the chance? When do they stop being prospects? Michael Owen played in a world cup at 18, surely we can expect our youngsters to play in SFL3??!!

applied to the Oldco but in order to obtain a licence
also had to apply to the Newco) well anyway lets see

Now leading up to Transfer Deadline on Friday and still all talk is about signing yet more average, overpaid foreigners all aged 30+. Whatever happened to using this period to establish a team by bleeding youth talent which is the way i wanted and hoped we would go.
The young guys who have been in the team have played well and will improve but i would liked to have seen more like Cole, Perry, Hutton given more of a chance.

I agree but the problem may be that the youngsters are not good enough, they finished well behind in under 19s last year. There is no point playing them and not getting results. We need to go up and whilst I agree youth would be preferred option but if they are not good enough, and can't sign anyone for eighteen months, it is a big risk to take.

Having read we were allegedly interested in Emile Heskey I got thinking about other free agents out there.
One of interest I thought would be Mkael Forsell. He's 31 now and just been released by Leeds. Surely a more sound investment?
Also another sound player is centre back, Clark Carlisle. More known for his media work recently he wrote in an article that he was now willing to accept 80-90% less than previous earnings?

Wee Bill, we talking about the same man here? He's the luckiest man in football. 6 or 7 medals, C.L. Experience and a Uefa Cup Final....not bad for a dumpling! I've struggled for a nickname for him. Not sure whether to call him Kirk Konterman or Bert Broadfoot!

A dumpling who's been getting played out of position for most of his time at Rangers...

Wee Bill, you seem intent on defending Kirk Broadfoot, you are trying to defend the indefensible. He is, was and always will be useless, and he is on £9k a week!
We will see what kind of deal that he gets now, that will show you what others think of him too. Give up Bill you are flogging a dead horse.

He played centre galf loads of tines and was a liability. Cost us goals numerous times.

Getting played out of position means nothing! he is a football player, he should be able to play football, unless you all mean that broadfoot has been played out of position because his position should have been the bench?

any bears got any info on this Brian Stockbridge ?
He seems to be Ticketus's man & Green's the puppet?
Fair enough Ticketus wantin there money bak from us-if they didn't agree to buy 100,000 season tickets for Ibrox LloydsTSB would've shut us down long before we were actually shut down.
Greens started a new club for us, he'll disregard it once Ticketus have got their money and we'll still have A Rangers in one form or another.

@1 You saying that RFC have a deal for 200,000 tickets with Ticketus so they get their £27m back?
Meanwhile Ticketus have a pending court case against Craig Sh!te for £27m because he gave personal guarantees for the money.
A court hearing earlier this year found that Ticketus did not own RFC season tickets. D & P terminated the contract in May.
STV - ' Ticketus has confirmed it has "no future involvement" in Rangers as administrators accepted an offer from consortium headed by Charles Green.'
So according to your post Ticketus are going to get £54m.

I think its funny how the fans of ither clubs- mainly Tic fans of course- are giving it the old 'Servco' and 'new club' banter but they still have the same old obsession with the Gers.
The daily papers obviously carry forums at the bottom of the stories they print and alomst evry story is met by Tic fans giving it large and trying to put the boot in. Most of the Gers stories are commented on more times than the Tic stories.... and most of the comments are from Tic fans!!
My message is to the Tic fans...... away and concentrate on your own teams lads.... if we arent the same club etc then why the obsession?! Why take notice of us at all?! My answer is simple... jealousy!! We may have fallen to the bottom tier... but our fans are with us (newco or not) as they believe in the Rangers spirit. The Tic fans do turn out in their droves... but we are selling out Ibrox and every ticket allocation given too us. Our season ticket demand is incredible for a team in the bottom tier.
We will remain behind our team.... our day will come again.

How do you sack a manager who has bought 4.6% shareholding in his employer. SPL and EPL clubs would create a Director of Football position and move him out of the way and recruit an experienced coach. Can't see us being able to afford both Ally as DoF and foot the bill for a quality coach.

A very good point. To all them that go completely off their rocker aboot gers'start in "fourth tier", the truth is: there's no a great deal between a great many of the teams. You just pay more to watch rubbish in the spl. I often watch junior football, and to be perfectly frank, the standard is no a million miles off spl level. Main difference is, you get in for a quarter of the price.

As I made the original post I would point out to the '' binman''. It should be suffice to say 'rubbish' but that would be too clever for him. I would just point out that the administration figures show worst case scenario, as it would include the ticketus 'debt' and the big tax case still pending e.g. Also until recently Rangers submitted auditted accounts. I still say that Murray and Whyte, amongst others, need investigating but that is for the law of the land.

Everyone on here is saying about Allys poor start to the season, well let me inform you all of something, the players are to blame. Ally picks the team granted but the players are on the park, the manager can only do/say so much. Give it time and we will be fine, not really had a preseason and still uncertainties over players in/out so give it time no time to panic. its a long hard road and we gotta be prepared to take a few knocks along the way. Sick of people wanting the manager sacked after a couple of weeks. useless supporters.

Ally's 100% to blame. He inherited a champion team. Most expensive and best in Scotland and got us blown away by minnows out of Europe costing £18m. If that had not happened Craig Whyte would not have needed to withhold NI, PAYE and VAT. And he would still be there as a successful chairman. Yes Ally is most definitely to blame and the irony is he picks up 5% of the club! Lol hilarious. Heard the ref at Berwick picked up 2%.
