He won't make money from Rangers. Where are you going to get the money to pay him back the loan?
Seems like the current board are desperate enough not to have Rangers books examined in detail that Ashley gets everything.

That could equally apply to Rangers, fairly amusingly.
Rangers can still sell a player for a million quid and he's not done anything against anyone of note. Bringing in talented foreigners and developing youth to sell on to England should be the main aim long term.

You telling a billionaire how he won't make money is laughable.

In that case you have to wonder why Ra Peepil are revolting about him getting Ibrox and Murray Park as security for loans and aren't welcoming him with open arms.
A lot of people want Dave King or someone else. If you've got a large asset to secure the loan against then using it is one of your only options unless someone else comes in with a different offer. It's business. Mike Ashley wants to make money.

Your diddies and their 'title challenge' couldn't get two bob for a player. Who was the last player you even sold for decent money anyway?
We have no need to sell players, virtually all tied up for years to come. Another regular signed an extension today.

I assume you are against the protest tomorrow?

As as complete outsider, is it wrong of me to say that the situation with Rangers, and their financial dealings completely baffels me?

It seems to change quite often as far as I can tell!

Hearts could have promotion all but sewn up come 10pm tonight if they beat Scotland's AFC Wimbledon this evening at Sports Direct Park.

Today's the day the Teddy Bears Had Their Pitch Nicked!
That is the headline the Record should have run.

Gary Mackay Steven signs a pre contract agreement with Celtic.

I honestly didn't see him signing for celtic, might leave one team that's has qualified for the europa league for another that has qualified

It baffles everyone, approx £80 million has just vanished into thin air over the past 30 months.

The only thing that stays the same is the desperate need to borrow money every month.

If we offer £150k he'll be at Celtic Park before the end of the window I think.

Heavy snow falling in Glasgow - game passes pitch inspection that proved the pitch is still owned by Rangers.

Edit: there is a playable pitch inspection talking place.

Apparently up full blast - can't abandon it now - think of the refunds that would have to be paid out.

I know it's on tv and its cold but the crowd is terrible but how does it need to last before they are not obliged to refund anything.

Hearts players managing the conditions better strangely enough.

Looks like it's over, why did they start it then

Seems the undersoil heating might have only been switched on when it started snowing, meanwhile over at CP it's been on for most of the day and the result is a snow free pitch.

Surely they could have got Ally in with a garden blower to clear the pitch?

They really are a joke of a club.

I hope the Hearts fans get their money back for tonight.

The Hearts squad were kept inside Ibrox because it wasn't safe for them to leave.

Just shut the doors now.
