The 120 day review is out and apparently The Rangers spent £67m in 18 months.

They can't accept debit or credit card payment for next seasons season tickets as their card processor wants securities and insurance payments that The Rangers cannot afford. Is that bluff from the board or the truth to try and get King to invest or get lost?
Seems if fans boycott buying season tickets they'll be the ones blamed when the club is then forced into administration.

Surely it would be easier to forget winning the title in 2017 and challenge in Europe until the books are balanced.

I hear Easdale said the club wouldnt survive another administration - why not?

Impeccable minute's silence at Ibrox in memory of Sandy Jardine. As these things should be.

Much better from United today, played some good stuff. Armstrong was immense. Just hope we can keep playing like today for the next few weeks.

Too warm for Dr Martens. And my Converse collection is gaining on my Dr Martens, although I don't have tangerine converse yet!

Excellent game today. Most people seem to agree that should be the cup final starting 11. If we play like that St Johnstone are toast. Of course if we play like we did last week then we're toast!

Nice minutes applause for Frank Kopel today.

Hearts currently 7/2 to beat Hibs next week on skybet.

Now, where did we leave the 'Phree Munney' gif?
I am aware it is probably poor form to quote yourself, but never the less-

Dundee United sold 15000 final tickets in three hours today, cant see the initial 23000 allocation lasting much longer.

Once they are gone we allowed another 10000 up to a maximum of 33000

I thought it was incredible when we took 28000 to the 2010 final, that will be beaten I feel

Which is good, I think the final should have 45-50 thousand at the game.

I know it happens with all teams now when they get to cup finals but a slight criticism of my own team.

I always feel Dundee United where they stand in the scottish game should never have any less than 10000 for any game at Tannadice as we can certainly get the crowds at cup finals now

Dens is a sell-out for Saturdays game against Dumbarton. So long as Hamilton don't beat Morton by 8 goals, a point is enough for Dundee to win the league.

I'm shitting it!

Armageddon strikes again!

Are Dumbarton getting a corner of the main stand?

I had to spend 35 minutes on the phone today getting a ticket for St. Mirren away. St Mirren away! Hearts sold out the away end more or less immediately.

Yes, but smaller than normal - usually teams getting that (either as their full or an additional allocation) get three sections, but they're only getting two with around 800 seats.

There was talk of letting Dumbarton fans in free as "guests of the club" and putting them in the seats next to the tunnel. That bit doesn't have a safety certificate for paying fans, but it can still be used, hence the "guests" thing. But there's a lack of facilities and convenient access for that to happen.

How do you feel dundee would do in a return to the top league. I know last time it was the promoted in a hurry not ready argument.

I assume it would be a relegation battle but one you would be competitive in.

There seems to be a massive gap in quality between the top and bottom half of the spfl these days
