  1. Heard on Radio Scotland that despite the figure reported there was nothing like that number inside Ipox yesterday. Sounds like using the same abacus as the East End Minky Mob.

  9. Whyte due to appear in court in Glasgow today. Have a feeling that things are about to get even more interesting. Anyone else get the feeling that he'll sing like a canary and be happy to take all and sundry down in order to save himself.

  18. An arrest warrant has been issued for former Rangers owner Craig Whyte following an investigation into the club's sale in 2011, it is understood. The development came after four men were detained in England. David Grier, Paul Clark and David Whitehouse worked for Duff and Phelps, who were Rangers' administrators. Gary Withey worked for law firm Collier Bristow, which represented Craig Whyte before he bought Rangers from Sir David Murray for £1 in 2011. The four men were held during early morning raids at addresses across the UK in an operation that involved officers from Police Scotland, Surrey Police, Cheshire Police and Thames Valley Police. Police Scotland have been investigating the sale of Rangers from Sir David Murray to Craig Whyte for more than a year. A spokesman for Police Scotland said: "Four men have been detained as a result of the ongoing investigation into the alleged fraudulent acquisition of Rangers Football Club. "Around 6am on Friday, Police Scotland officers, assisted by officers from Thames Valley Police, Cheshire Police and Surrey Police, attended a number of addresses in England and detained four men." Duff and Phelps spokesman Marty Dauer said the firm was aware that three employees in the UK had been "detained for questioning in connection with work performed for Rangers Football Club". He said this work "was commenced while these employees were part of MCR Partners, prior to its acquisition by Duff & Phelps in October of 2011". He added: "Duff & Phelps has performed an internal investigation and commissioned an independent investigation of the related matters. "As a result, we believe that our work for Rangers was conscientious, thorough and properly performed in every respect. "Duff and Phelps has actively co-operated with all relevant investigating authorities throughout this process." Mr Dauer said a subsequent review by the Insolvency Practitioners Association in 2013 had "cleared the firm of any wrongdoing or conflict of interest" over its involvement with Rangers. Rangers manager Ally McCoist said: "Obviously I can't or wouldn't comment on a current police matter, but I would have to say I'm shocked. "Obviously I can't pre-judge what is going to happen. "Our concern has always been for the staff and supporters. What's happened to us in the last two-and-a-half, three years has been very tough, particularly on the staff and supporters. "We just want to continue with our attempts to get the club back to where we feel we belong." The development is the latest twist in a three-year saga involving Rangers. Mr Whyte bought Rangers from Sir David Murray for £1 in May 2011 and gave an undertaking to settle its £18m Lloyds Bank debt. It later emerged he paid the debt by selling three years of season tickets to finance firm Ticketus for £25m. Rangers entered administration on 14 February 2012, while under Mr Whyte's control, over non-payment of tax totalling about £14m. Mr Clark and Mr Whitehouse from Duff and Phelps were appointed as joint administrators. HMRC subsequently rejected a creditors agreement which would have allowed Rangers to exit administration. That resulted in Charles Green's consortium taking control and Rangers being accepted to play in the Scottish Third Division. The administration and subsequent liquidation of Rangers resulted in Mr Whyte's deal with Ticketus being declared void. The finance firm successfully sued him for £18m over the failed deal. Mr Whyte was later banned from being a company director for the maximum period of 15 years after a judge heard his conduct in dealing with Rangers was "shocking and reprehensible".
  19. BOOOOOOOOOOOO Burton has apologised to Rangers for selling a T-shirt with an altered image of the club's founders and the slogan: "underworld division champions". Fans of the Ibrox club contacted the retailer after images of the T-shirt went viral on social media. Burton said it wished to "apologise unreservedly for any offence" and said it had removed the item from sale. The retailer said it was "unaware of any connection to Rangers" and "any reference was purely inadvertent". In a statement, Burton said: "We wish to apologise unreservedly for any offence caused by the T-shirt displayed on our website. It has been removed from the site and will not be re-appearing. "We would like to assure you that we were unaware of any connection to Rangers Football Club and any reference was purely inadvertent. "Thank you for bringing it to our attention and allowing us to rectify the situation."
  20. The gift that just keeps on giving Warrant to be issued for the arrest of Craig Shyte as well. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-30053692
  21. Fuck sake min, where were you
  22. Your point is correct of course, but this is always the problem when you start doing polls for "greatest" whatever. It is always heavily influenced by more recently remembered players. The same applies when you question people on greatest ever song. A load of great (in my opinion) tracks from years ago get lost.
  23. Tom, on the right is photo of Guns founding fathers or original team or some shit like that. On the left is a t shirt put on sale in Burton's shops. The writing on it is what makes it. The Zombies are in melt down over it and have created a boycott Burton's and been e mailing them. Unfortunately the item appears to have been withdrawn from sale now on their website.
  24. Feeling dirty, but had a sneaky look on RM ( initially to read the post about Burton's t shirt) and there is three pages about them signing him. Arrogant fuckwits don't even acknowledge the fact that Shinnie might go elsewhere. AFC should buy out contract in January and chuck in someone like Joe to sweeten ICT. Thing is, if we put cash on the table then Zombies are going to struggle to match.
  25. Bastard.. was going on my Xmas list for a certain friend of mine
