I'm sure he said 5 !! We'll get an update at the end of the programme

I thought today was the deadline for all offers complete with their plans for managing the debt !! Obviously not then !! Seems that there are no such thing as deadlines with Hinge and Bracket ! They just make things up as they go along . Wonder how much they have managed to add to the running costs this week ? No signs of any major cost cutting that I can see ! Update that, just seen the BBC news. 5 offers just been announced !!

It would be worth trying !!

That's why this vehicle for hatred must go out of business !!

Exactly . One point that keeps appearing is that attendances would rise just because of theprofile name of the opposition. That is a fallacy particularly with the OF as they just follow for the sake of glory. No glory in competing in a league that they can't win. Out of principal, I wouldn't go to watch teams that have been forced upon us for the "greater good " of Scottish football. A shame because at present I watch Brechin home and away and feel that I am contributing in a small way to the survival of lower league football. Watching the protracted crap involved with trying to save a self indulgent, self preserving club like Rangers (WHO WILL NOT THINK TWICE ABOUT GOING BACK TO THEIR OLD WAYS ) makes my blood boil . If they survive , which is looking more and more likely by the day , I would hope that the media would come to their senses and see them as others see them.........Corrupt and tainted. As a footnote, I laughed at the announcement of the charities trust match against AC Milan . It seems that once you are in the mess that Rangers are in , like minded , corrupt clubs rally to your support. You have to admire the bare faced cheek of it all !!

How does it take 2 weeks to announce something that was suggested on here in the early pages ? It was reported today as a major move by the SPL clubs . Just shows that the fans ( who seem to know far more than the experts ) views are in fact listened to. But the powers can't be seen to be taking advice from the minions , hence the delay then the major announcement to make it sound like their idea !!! This is a common practice of our chairman to make him seem like he's in charge. It seems it goes on at higher levels too !!

With Donald Finlay at Cowden's helm , I'm sure talks are already underway ! The old school reunited again ??

Yer fuckin arse !!! I was at St James' Park when Viv Anderson was in his first season at Arsenal . He went to take a corner at the Gallowgate end and was promptly pelted , not only with bananas, but coconuts too! The game was held up for 10 mins till they cleared the stuff and convinced Anderson that it was safe to play on !! That's what I call one of the the worst cases of racist abuse at a British Ground !! You say that you are a genuine fan of Scottish football yet you fail to see or hear anything that doesn't concern Rangers !! You have proved countless times on P&B how blinkered and one sided all your arguments are ! Sorry , but I am of the opinion that your knuckles are as scarred as the aforementioned Barcelona mob. Once you get together you just can't help yourselves.

A bit off topic .......On the news tonight that an investor has given Dundee a six figure sum and there are more investors in the pipeline . Enough to see a promotion push ? Back on topic .......Still waiting patiently for the black smoke to billow out of the Govan gas pipe !!!!

You can talk history all you like . The team that you follow ( if you're very very lucky ) next season will have no history at all . No past glories to gloat about and certainly no reason to spout your bigoted bile in the name of tradition !! Good luck East Stirling 2013 !!!

I hope they prove it by showing the grizzly pictures like they did with Bin Laden !!!

Rangers fan questioning ANYONE'S honesty !!! :lol:

I was savagely beaten in the early stages of the debate for seeing right through Salmond's slimy actions on day one. As predicted he has now dropped interest in this whole grubby episode , just as he dropped his pal Fred the Shred . For future reference, I can confidently predict that should by some miracle, Rangers come out unscathed, then Salmond will re-emerge and profess to be the key figure in all dialogue!!!!!! Politicians are on the same slime ladder as dodgy wide men like Whyte and Minty .

Remember though. Rangers blocked all checks on Whyte's credentials pre takeover. What did they know back then ??? Mair fish here than women's day at Gayfield !!!

However unlikely, that would be absolutely wonderful ! I would be straight on to Jim Traynor to gloat about Brechin City's greatest victory !!!! What goes around comes around !!!

When the sun goes down at the end of the day, we will remember them !! Raise a glass to Mr Shiel and Mr Turpie !!

Thank f**k you're here tonight !! I just couldn't be arsed looking it all up ! Today's alcohol content having something to do with it !!

Talking for us alone here !!!! ........We could show them a thing or two about living within our means !!!

We will never forget........Our Chairman wouldn't have the balls though !!!

In reality, it was not just the Angus sides. The likes of East Stirling, Stenhouse muir and a few others were affected. Rangers lodged a complaint that these sides were draining the resources , hindering Rangers success . They wanted these teams put in a regional league , well away from the top level.........Much the same as Doncaster is trying now !!! The vote went disasterously wrong for Rangers and they were forced to put up with us diddies for the foreseeable future !!!

Ok , Sorry I knew about the administration situation but was a little unclear about liquidation. I just wonder if any SFL clubs would have the balls to block admission should your latter scenarios take place ? I doubt it , but that would be the ultimate kick in the balls for them !!! After all they tried to have all the Angus sides kicked out in the 60s . Payback time would be sweet !!

I knew you'd come up trumps !! BTW , what is the current situation about demotion ? Is Traynor right , or can Rangers be booted out ? My understanding is that if they are expelled they would have to apply to the SFL for admission .

An interesting argument on your call tonight. Traynor stated that , if Rangers do get liquidated , the SPL are under no obligation to demote Rangers from their league as they are a seperate entity from the SFL . Correct me if I'm wrong , but I can recollect Livingston being demoted from the SPL ! Surely a precedent has been set there ! All on our supporters bus seemed to agree

Morality is the key word here !!

THUMP !!!!! Head goes firmly back in the sand !!
