Rangers Newco

What needs to happen is genuine stringent control over who owns a football club, and strong fan involvement in the running of all clubs. Until that happens shit like this can happen. Rangers were cheating for years, and it would only be unfair if another club were treated differently. Would any other club have all that effort taken to bring them straight back into the top or second league?

 

It is also a sign that Rangers were essentially cheating to compete in the 2 club league that the SPL was. This was deeply unhealthy and this was a symptom of that, a healthy league is a competitive one, something that was lost when the whole league was organised to maximise revenue for Rangers and Celtic.

 

Says a lot about the shiteness of the people running the club that they were cheating massively the whole time and Celtic still won more trophies.

 

Totally agree with what you are saying btw, fans have to be properly involved in the running of the clubs.

134 million pound of debt written off yet in the 3rd Division in Scotland where you play against part timers and they are signing the likes of Sandaza on a reported 5k a week, Ian Black on a reported on 7k.

 

St Johnstone a club that is trying to run within its means couldn't afford to sign him and Hearts who are still owed £600,000 for Lee Wallace, who is still playing for "The" Rangers, couldn't afford to give Black another contract.

 

I feel sorry for the fans in all of this but for the club to be able to just become a newco and write off all that debt, whilst also still wanting to claim rights to the trophies won by the oldco, is absolutely ridiculous.

Totally agree mate. It's a shambles and a disgrace.

:thup:

 

Most of that owed to the tax payer as well, secret contracts done while under an owner who is knighted.

 

Utter farce.

It sort of like this, your Dad having a new step kid who is a little cunt but gets a portion of Daddy's money and you miss out on some, meanwhile they piss you off to a great measure as they are getting a lot of attention and you are suffering because of the diversion of attention.

 

Please Daddy (Mike), get this silly idea out of your head and just concentrate on NUFC on the football front.

Not sure how to take the Rangers thing tbh. I don't think he will concentrate his attention on them but I do think he will want to get them back up to the SPL asap to get a quick return which could mean we lend them some of our fringe players.

 

I can't imagine it will be as financially rewarding as us getting a high league position though so he isn't going to harm us to help them.

Couldn't give a shit tbh. He's a chancer, that's all. Seen a cheap opportunity to get his finger in yet another pie. He's not going to be attending third division Scottish matches, and even if he was it wouldn't affect us.

Apparently Rangers club store which is run in conjunction with JJB is set to change to a Sports Direct store on Monday.

 

Also theirs rumours going about that a new Rangers shirt is being released, they aren't sure if it the end of the Tennant's deal and Sports Direct taking over or if it's a change of shirt makers or even both. The shirt is now reduced to £25 for an adults shirt despite it only being released in May.
