Shame on Rangers fans for singing naughty songs.
Whereas, Celtic fans, doing the exact same thing on Sunday, is totally ok?
Celtic fans were singing the billy boys on Sunday? I must have missed that bit.Whereas, Celtic fans, doing the exact same thing on Sunday, is totally ok?
Absolutely no reports in any of the media with regards the Celtic support on Sunday. The Rangers support on Saturday have been roundly condemned on all fronts.
I'll ignore the churlish insults if that's okay with you?

True. Although, they haven't issued a winding up order petition either.
Since you asked, do you disagree that they are not likely to be put into liquidation? What do you think the future of Rangers Football Club is?
No because they know they'd get less back if they forced the issue than let them run themselves into the ground.Since you asked, do you disagree that they are not likely to be put into liquidation? What do you think the future of Rangers Football Club is?
I think it's a year of no man's land, like before the Whyte Knight came along. Except this time there will actually be no money spent rather than what has actually been spent by Rangers.
There will be people losing their jobs in the next year.
This side of a rich buyer with absolutely no business sense, the only way is down. And out.

ETA: Statement from the Administrators,
DUFF and Phelps, Administrators of Rangers Football Club, today issued the following statement.
David Whitehouse, joint administrator, said: "Since being appointed administrators last week there has been widespread concern raised with us, not least by Rangers supporters and season ticket holders, about the agreement between the Club and Ticketus.
"Following information received, it is now apparent that the proceeds from the Ticketus arrangements amounted initially to a sum in the region of £20 million plus VAT. Subsequently, £18 million was transferred to the Lloyds Banking Group.
"The application of the remainder of these proceeds is subject to further examination.
"We are now investigating all the circumstances surrounding both the purchase of the majority shareholding in Rangers Football Club plc and the flow of funds which stemmed from the transaction and were intended to fulfil the purchasers' obligations at the time of the sale.
"We cannot comment further on these matters while enquiries continue."

But still they are here adding there unique (stupid) thoughts to the GLASGOW RANGERS THREAD like a a shower of immature children. Taking extract from the hardcore fan sites and posting them like its every rangers fans chain of thought. There is knuckle draggers at every club. They think they are clever by highlighting ours. A five min search of there hard core sites would though up a lot of unsavoury comments to. But not INTERESTED IN WHAT THERE FANS HAVE TO SAY. So stay of there fan sites/threads.
It has been pointed out to you in this thread that it is not exclusively for Rangers fans. Neither have I made derogatory comments or linked to Rangers fan sites, others may have, I most certainly haven't.If you had taken the bother to actually read my posts you would be aware that my Wife works for Rangers, hence the reason I am taking so much interest in what is going on at present. So no, I don't think I'm clever, I most certainly ain't daft and if you think I'm a moron for commenting on the Rangers thread when I stand to lose more than every other Rangers fan in this thread, well that's entirely up to you.

I think you should stop posting sensible comments because it confuses the hard of thinking!

This arguing is very childish and is why there can't be peace between Rangers and Celtic fans completely.
More so Rangers and Celtic fans who are religious.
I can have a civilised conversation with my Celtic friends without it resulting in a shouting match about how rangers did bad things historically and how protestants have been persecuting Catholics for years.
Please stop it, the only thing that is happening is you are making yourselves look like dicks. Grow up.
ps My dad is bigger than your dad, and it's my ball so I'm taking it away if you don't play nice.

he says the ticketus money wasn't used to takeover the club, now he says it was. He just can't be trusted.
Indeed and he is not prepared to take or for that matter PAY for the professional advice that he requires if he truly wants to run Rangers and not ruin them.he says the ticketus money wasn't used to takeover the club, now he says it was. He just can't be trusted.

I dont follow football in Scotland so is someone able to give me a summary of why Rangers are where they are now? I'm genuinely interested.

The previous owner racked up huge debts then sold Rangers for £1.There are plenty of examples of businesses being sold for nominal amounts - the one thing they all have in common is they are doomed !
