What happened??
Can someone please fill me on the good news?
All I heard was Whittaker and Naismith agreed to 75% deduction in wages. What else?

posted on 9/3/12

The players agreed to a 75% cut, that's it.

Well thats good, probably saves us about 100k a month. Any news on the other 900k?

some of you're fellow bears seem to think you'se have won the league and the tax case all rolled into one the way they are acting

can't blame them really it really has been a torrid 4 months

ALL Players agreed to wage cut.

Top earners 75%, mid 50% lower (inc youth players etc ) 25%.

All jobs within Ibrox safe.

PA reporting London Office to close (big deal - we might even get the deposit on the office back, it's been open so short a time!)

So, a long way to go, but FINALLY, maybe, just maybe, heading in the right direction.

Timi, it is embarrassing. Some have laughed at our gloating and the amount of gloating they are doing over something as small as this.

There's an awfy lot of catharsis going around, that's for sure.

It reminds me of when Whyte first took over. The tims were all shouting "he's gonnae shaft yeez" while the bers were replying "3 in a row, loadsa dough".

Carcrash stuff.

Henrik - jeez - it is ALL we have just now... give us a break!

Very good news indeed. First good news in a while!

54 has shot his load at the overwhelming news that the players will be paid the same wages as the bin men.

Neil Francis - you sound like an expert in self gratification.

Actually. My relief isnt just about the players unique decision but HMRC advising the administrators that they will settle the big tax case as long as Whyte goes. That virtually lifts away any danger of liquidation if Rangers are sold. Still a way to go but my goodness, much much better!

Davie, I understand and that is good news.

I don't include you in this mate, but I have seen lots of posts saying things like the "timmys must be sad". Which I just do not understand at all. Good news for Rangers I think, but let's be honest the squad you have now will be looked upon as a good team in comparison to the squad you will have in three/four years time.

Henrik - another Tim soothsayer

I know that's a bit subtle so let me be clear - you're talkin oot yer erchie!

No need for that Mearns as long as your sisters in town

How am I?

Do you seriously think you'll have players like Naismith, McGregor and Davis in three or four years? You're delusional.

posted on 9/3/12

Henrik - ok, but without knowing who is coming in the door as a new owner, what they will have or how they will spend it, nobody can say what the team will or will not be in the future.

All we know (hopefully) is that there WILL be a team, and it won't just be the U19s.

NL - get you, what's next, mum jokes? Truly the last bastion of a bonafide dimwit!

Davie.

I just think you should be cautious regarding owners and that it would take a mad man to buy Rangers.

posted on 9/3/12

How am I delusional - I've made no prediction's unlike you

posted on 9/3/12

Henrik - I think it is fair to say that you have to be mad to buy ANY football club.

But for the price you MIGHT get Rangers at just now...... assuming you put in the right conditions etc......
