Jon Tonal supposedly next Gers loan deal.

Quite enthused, quality player. Our midfield is too workmanlike sans Niko (who was just getting into his stride), needs a bit of pace and vision.

Both have been excellent. No problem with them as squad players next season. Once Hill got the pace of the SPL after a few weeks, he has been our best CH. I just wish he was even 5 yrs younger. Its Kiernan that blows hot and cold, Wilson has been a bit better. We need two vg CH's next season. Miller just keeps going and has been quality. Will do a job as impact sub next season, which should be his last at Ibrox, at least as a player.

Rumours that West Ham want Dembele for £20m. Hope he stays. Can see club rejecting the offer.

Simple. Rangers nearly died but survived because Green was able to start a new Plc. A move which was agreed on by all parties. Had that not happened, Rangers would have died. As the Plc owns the physical assets. Rangers would have had to continue as an amateur or junior club. Or simply wound themselves up as a professional club.

But incorporation I hear you say?. Surely that means Rangers FC and Rangers Plc both died at the same time. NO. Scottish law, as Lord Nimmo rightly pointed out, is clear that sports club and holding company/Plc still remain two separate legal entities.

What died was the Plc, not the club. And for all the pseudo-cleverness by Tic fans, by their logic, then Rangers ACTUALLY died in 1981. When the Plc was changed. So why aren't Celtic fans arguing we died in 1981?. And that 1982-2012 was a new club.

What Rangers went through would be the same in 1994 had McCann at al not saved Celtic and the bhoys went through the exact same problems. Had that happened, it would still be the same Celtic founded in 1888. Only with a new Plc. 1897-1994. Same Celtic, different company. As odd as it sounds, the Plc of a club 'owns' the football club's history as an asset. Any new Plc founded can transfer this history over and take ownership. As the new Tic plc did in 1994, and as Green did in 2012.

Bradford?. Again, simple. The administrators refused to accept any survival deal, and the club sadly has gone into liquidation, with no Plc to start up and take the club's assets inc history. So the difference between us in 2012 and sadly BB this week is actually quite simple.

Listen, I get it. Celtic fans think and wish we had died. I get it. I would be the same if Celtic had gone tits up in 1994 or next week. I am trying to be as honest as I can. Give the facts as opposed to the myth.

Rangers did not die. BUT they very nearly did. And we the fans can NEVER allow that to happen again.
That's a fantastic bit of creative writing you've done there. No basis in fact but a cracking read all the same.

As much as I hope he stays that is a lot of cash to be turning down. You never know what could happen next week.

I'd hope to squeeze more cash out of them though.

If it gets higher, he'll be off I fear.

You ask a question but you don't to hear any answer. We get it, your mind is closed.

What's the difference between Bradford Bulls and Rangers/The Rangers?

Bradford go into administration and then liquidation and are to be reformed as a new club yet we are supposed to believe that Rangers and The Rangers are the same team.
I'm away to bid for their history £1 should be enough...

The Bradford Bulls situation is very different from what happened with Rangers as regards the sports clubs. The Bradford rugby league club has ceased to play whereas with Rangers the football club did not. With Bradford the sport's authorities have called for bids for a brand new club and there are 10 parties interested in setting up a totally new sports club. That didn't happen with Rangers. Now, let's not go through the same old stuff for the umpteenth time and bore the bahookie off everybody else.

Rangers ceased to play hence the series of bibs vs non bibs games.
