  1. It's nothing like being sacked though, if your contract is ending and there's been no discussion's about a new one, it's pretty obvious you're not staying somewhere. Unless they've been strung along it's a bit of a nothing story tbh.
  2. Labour don't know what they are any more and that is their problem.
  3. Just watched Being Human, seasons 1-5, sounded incredibly naff as a concept (a Vampire, Ghost and Werewolf share a house) but frankly it was bloody excellent, good drama with laugh out loud and very subtle comedy moments. Another very good series the BBC made but killed off way too soon. Wankers.
  4. Aye, it's Scotland's fault that England is Tory. FFS
  5. In what circumstances would he not press the button ?? If he meant even in retaliation for a nuclear attack on this country he's a fucking buffoon, although we knew that already. Of course it's a deterrent, we certainly wouldn't use it pre-emptively but unless its part of a global disarmament, we should absolutely replace it. Maybe if we cut our foreign aid down to reflect the size of country we are now we could afford to replace trident over a few years for basically free. As an example, we pay Pakistan around £400Mill a year in aid, they have nukes and have just developed/deployed their own pilotless armed drone, there, amongst other places, would be a good place to start.
  6. That really wasn't the crux of his point tbh
  7. http://www.thinkdefence.co.uk/2015/04/trident-an-election-problem/
  8. The so called "missing" cash is in the bank the expenses, and therefore profits, have been massaged for tax reasons we must presume. We're minted, no excuses, time to show it (if we stay up).
  9. It's the hike in operating expenses that needs a good look at as they rose 26% (on what ???) that's £22Mill of the errant £28Mill(and Fish I think you do have to pay). It's the Op expenses that reduced the profit, would be interesting to see what the cash at bank figure is, maybe that hike was a book hike and the cash is still sloshing around (or maybe not!!).
  10. Well predicted Fishtrodamus. Been filed today at Co House, but not available to view yet.
  11. One shot should suffice, ammo costs money you know
  12. Cheers Gents will ask Tooj for some info.
  13. Cheers, how's the android box work, do you just buy one and away it goes ??
  14. What sites etc. do you use to get to watch this leaked stuff ???
  15. Some people just like to go out, have a few beers, watch a game of football and have a good old fashioned vent.
  16. Aye OK, keep chasing those moonbeams and war chests
  17. What exactly has he said there that's rubbish ?? Did you read Murray's statement, if you want laughable that was it. All the old boards fault That would be the old board that had a NOMAD and a listing on the stock exchange. Good luck with the glib and shameless one, you'll need it I reckon. Try this one - nailed it: https://rangerssupportersloyal.wordpress.com/2015/04/03/delistings-debacles-and-endgames/
  18. https://rangerssupportersloyal.wordpress.com/2015/04/01/spin-bluster-and-hype/ A good read
  19. He's the 100% owner, he doesn't need any stranglehold more than that fact to do whatever he wants.
  20. Admittedly I do find their predicament interesting.
  21. Not my words, Rangers fans words, read the thread I posted. They were cratering into January. If in January you had said to Rangers, would you pay us £500K to get promoted and it's only payable if you do go up, they'd have snapped your hand off.
  22. I'm trying to de-spin it. They'd have coasted the leagues IF they'd built with kids from the old 4th tier. Fast forward to January, they needed new players, they were plummeting and have bugger all in terms of kids on the books, but they had no money so couldn't have signed anyone. Even though Vukic is the only one to have played it's made a positive difference. IF they get promoted £500K will be well worth it, Vukic has made a huge difference to them: http://forum.rangersmedia.co.uk/index.php?s=007fda8ba7d828c4681929dd16dc62d5&showtopic=281553 Without Ashley's influence, would we loan any players to a team for potentially free ??? I doubt it. They only pay if they go up.
  23. If he hadn't been in the team they wouldn't have picked up the points they have, he's been far and away their best player when he's been on the park. Half a million IF it gets them promoted is well worth it (to them). Streete played first game but got crocked, that's not our fault. They needed some refresh of players, they were in a tailspin and couldn't have afforded any without the influence from Ashley. Their youth set up is all but gone, under the old boards, pre-Ashley's influence, they have virtually no-one coming through. Their HUGE error was to pay top wages(second only to Celtic in all of Scotland) when they were in the 4th tier to journeymen to coast the leagues. They should have played/built with younger players when they were playing postmen and fishermen(they could have afforded the best kids). They would still have coasted the lower leagues. Shit, look at Hearts virtually all kids and have walked the Championship. Evidently on Bigi (according to some), he could play in England but not allowed to in Scotland, don't know the rule because don't know what he's got. Simple fact is, this is spin from the "new" board, it's not even relevant to the financial period that's being reported. It's down to interpretation, Rangers needed players, they couldn't afford any by themselves, without the undue influence they wouldn't have got any. Story could quite easily be run as: NUFC loan Rangers players and defer loan fees so they're only payable on promotion - That is doing a favour. We should be more upset the loan fees have been deferred, NUFC could lose out on those amounts and loan fees are certainly "normal".
