mizer Posted January 23, 2014 Author Share Posted January 23, 2014 ONE of Scotland’s most influential sports journalists, Tom English, is leaving as chief sportswriter at The Scotsman and Scotland on Sunday. English – who is also a well-known and forthright pundit on BBC Radio Scotland – pens, among other things, a mid-week column for The Scotsman. He also writes a column for Scotland on Sunday. His final column for SoS will be this weekend. He is taking advantage of a voluntary redundancy offer made by the papers’ publisher, Johnston Press, towards the end of last year.

Kowalski Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Must admit I stopped buying the SoS a while ago but he's top of the top sports writers, no question. Voluntary redundancy offer? Dreadful if he's off to the huns, but he's been having a go at them for a while so I find this a bit strange!? What's the source for this?

tom_widdows Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Seem to recall Traynor laying into the blue meanies on the BBC only to suddenly quit and take a job with them. If English has done the equivalent then you do have to start asking questions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madbadteacher Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 From BBC Rumours Rangers boss Ally McCoist believes the Ibrox club can be Premiership title contenders in two years - if funding is found for £30m worth of lost talent I'm pretty fucking sure ANY team in Scotland would walk the league with 30,000,000 to spend.

dickofthedons Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Seriously?? Was talking about something similar with a Hun last week when the draw was made and who would be favourites for the cup. I thought it was near the opposite, who from the Huns would we take in our team?? I figured Lee Wallace, mainly coz we don't have a natural experienced left back. I'd take Law but I wouldn't be overly fussed compared with what we have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom_widdows Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Cash from share issue is gone, taking a £1.5m loan from the Easdales to keep going...... The Easdale brothers and Rangers' biggest single shareholder are prepared to loan the Scottish League One club up to £1.5 million. The move by Sandy Easdale, chair of the football board, James Easdale, a director of the plc board, and Laxey Partners would be part of chief executive Graham Wallace's attempts to rebalance the business. City sources revealed yesterday that agreement has yet to be finalised on the proposal as talks continue. However, it has been established the money would be repaid in the form of shares rather than cash at some point in the next 12 months. Rangers' cash reserves are understood to be diminishing, and the next significant income stream is not due until Rangers fans renew their season tickets in the summer. Mr Wallace, who is in the midst of a 120-day review of every aspect of Rangers' business, has already admitted that cost-cutting is required because outgoings are greater than revenues. Despite continuing rumours over an imminent cash-flow problem at Ibrox, the former Manchester City chief executive is adamant that there are enough funds to continue trading. However, significant savings have yet to be made with no players having left during last month's transfer window. Some Rangers directors were in London yesterday meeting shareholders and any lending of funds would be seen as a vote of confidence in Mr Wallace. Dave King, the former director who previously invested £20m in the club, has made it clear that he wishes to re-invest and lead the funding round of a new share issue. This would, though, dilute the holdings of the current shareholders unless they also put in more money. Mr King has also expressed his concern that if costs are cut to meet Rangers' current income levels, then the club will take years to return to its former status, and he would prefer fresh funding to be sought now to allow investment to strengthen the team and the infrastructure.
