Fine if you want to tell me you are having a tuna and mayo sandwich for lunch (as if I actually care!) - but nothing more than that level of stuff should get within a mile of Twitter.

It is too instantanious and once it's out there you've got to live and die by it.

john1962 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 You are another one who wants their cake and eat it.Please dont call me a Rangers apologist again. If Gers are now finished and we cant call them that how can we now expect the "newco" to be bound by the old cllubs problems.We need to get on with football.Either the Govanites are dead and buried or they are not. COYS I will make it simple for you. They want the old clubs licence. If they applied again they wouldn't get the licence as they dont have three years audited accounts. If they take transfer of licence then they take the punishments. It could be argued they have been let off because as a new company they should have applied to join SFL 3 where they should have been a vacancy.

dave mc Posted July 20, 2012 Report Share Posted July 20, 2012 Sevco accept transfer embargo,but for some reason,they've got 6 weeks until it comes in,therefore giving them time to sign plenty "frees" to tide them through the third and second divisions,laughable in the extreme!!Campbell Ogilvie looking after his favourite team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT the ban does not start til end of August. They were always going to be called Rangers or some version there of, and even if they have 2012 stuck on the end or Govan in front of it, it would just get contracted to Rangers.

Yes but in a way it knackers them completely for next season more because the season will be a month old before they can acquire a player I think. I still think their name should change because they will be associated with the disaster that was Rangers and all the stuff that is about to come out and they won't be perceived as a new entity which they are whatever they think.

MrBored Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 You would imagine they will sign players good enough to get them promotion from the third and second over the next two years. That way the ban will have little real effect. I'd imagine they would be able to attract the better first division players quite easily in terms of wages and potential fees. Read this morning that any sanctions have to be agreed with the SPL. Not sure why that should be now that they are an SFL club. SPL already sanctioned them by bouncing them out of the league. Also read that the SPL want some sort of share of the new Rangers media rights in the third....that does smack of some cheek And then, of course, there is the little matter of the EBTs.

Cagey Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 I see Gough is training with Newco. He is probably the only type of player they could afford. Who next ?,i think Goram,the German guy, Gazza & a few others would play for them & if McCoist lost a couple of stone he could probably play as well.Durie may even give up his managers job to play for them. Any others ?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT the ban does not start til end of August. Absolutely infuriating the way they're now going on about "accepting" sanctions, as if they think it shows them to be somehow gracious and co-operative. Since when did a cheating body have the right to choose whether or not to "accept" its punishment? Take what's given to you or bugger off, Sevco. Oh, and hand the trophies back. Sevco didn't win them and have no right to keep or display them. Rangers might be dead, but their arrogance live on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The daftest thing they did was to reject the transfer embargo in the courts back in May because now it's just caused them to have two summers without a signing instead of the embargo being over next May. They've done a lot of daft things right enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O'Rourke Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 Had a wee tear in my een when I read that Peterhead have announced the gate prices for their upcoming home fixture vs the team they used to call Rangers. £12 (cash only for away fans).

Cagey Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 McCoist says he wont accept old rangers losing their titles.

The Neutral Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 Chris McLaughlin is saying on Twitter that the hold up is over newco media rights.. SPL and SFL are in dispute over them.. This is crazy surely.. They were refused SPL membership so the rights belong to the SFL I would have thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soulfulsaint Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 Yes, I wouldn't be surprised if McCoist actually does the walking away thing before the season starts. Or Charles Green?

soulfulsaint Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 It ain't subsiding: <B> Rangers' SFA membership hopes hanging in the balance </B> By Chris McLaughlin Senior Football Reporter, BBC Scotland A stand-off over media rights and a possible stripping of titles threatens to scupper Rangers' hopes of Scottish Football Association membership. The SFA said on Friday that the new Rangers agreed to a transfer embargo in return for a license to play. BBC Scotland understands two obstacles remain before a deal can be agreed. Rangers want the Scottish Premier League to drop their investigation into dual contracts and the SPL want the SFL to hand over Rangers' media rights. There must be a five-way agreement between the SFA, SPL, Scottish Football League, old Rangers and new Rangers before any deal is ratified. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18941515 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
