Footballfirst Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 (edited) I wonder if CF will have a copy of Jabba's contract to hand, so that we can see what his pay off will be. IIRC he was reputedly on ?200K a year. A 12 month pay-off in exchange for a confidentiality agreement would be par for the course in Spivco.

Footballfirst Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Traynor may have some difficulty in getting another job given some of the comments in his final column in the Daily Ranger. Here's what the Scotsman said about it In a recent column , Traynor said he was leaving journalism upset at the way some media had reported Rangers? financial woes. He wrote: ?Perhaps in time more will be written about this kind of hack and the rabid desire to help bring down Rangers, a fierce desire that, sadly, was widespread. ?Just when did they become consumed by such eye- popping rage? Was it always there, a dormant fury against Rangers and their fans, who deserve enormous credit for having saved their club, just waiting for the catalyst? ?Now they can?t help themselves. They can?t stop foaming at the mouth and we can be sure their determination to have titles stripped will go into overdrive. ?They need some kind of victory or they might explode and that would be terribly messy. All that bile all over the walls and streets.? He added: ?My work here is done and I?m glad ? but just for the record, I?ve not been sacked or made redundant. I was asked to remain, but my conscience won?t allow me to stay in our profession. ?The kind of journalism needed by the country, never mind sport, no longer exists in enough of the media outlets.? Traynor used his column to single out The Rangers Tax Case, a blog which won the prestigious Orwell Prize for blogging earlier this year, accusing those behind it of being ?dolts?.

jambovambo Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 (edited) Tom English "Dave Kings hit a brick wall" "The Easdale Brothers aka The Scottish Crays" Heard a great story last night. Guy was at some downscale corporate thing. Man was there, handcuffed to a dwarf in a gimp mask. Guy speaks to this man, who says "do you like him? He's my birthday present from my sons!" Guy is not complimentary. Couple of mins later, someone sidles up to him and says "you'd better leave - that's the Easdales' dad and you've insulted them". The guy left, sharpish.

Don Dan Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 King last night admitted defeat in his battle to negotiate a peace treaty at Ibrox. The move came after Rangers refused to reveal who is behind mystery investors Blue Pitch and Margarita. Two things I believe King has realised that Sottish football supporters won't put up with his past and will make their voices heard. When the people behind Blue Pitch and Margarita are eventually exposed The Rangers will be finished for good never to return in any form. It's a distinctly murky world around Ibrox and the SFA need to intervene but they won't and I think in the end it will bring them down too.

Floyd Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 You cant leave us like that! Get it telt! The financial issues are for the one half that are already well documented. The scandal at the other half is a carbon copy of something they have been in trouble with before and they are desperately trying to keep in house and under wraps. Can't say any more on here without getting a ban or suspension so apologies for cloak and dagger. However, the source is well connected and I trust him implicitly.
