    No wonder because they know when it all goes to **** they can just reform over and over again but still be exactly the same "club" 😒
    The The The Rangers, it's all Dundee United's fault you know.

    ffs - some spin that!! They shouldnt be allowed to compete making a loss. Teams in Germany and others are prevented from that after admin or liquidation. WTF??

    The truth is out now. We were wrong about Stephen Thompson. He was badly misunderstood. To think we have let such a financal wizard and club builder slip out of our grasp!

    Indeed, but someone should ask the question, if the loss for that year is £14.3m, how much debt overall is this new club carrying? there were rumours of near £30m debt before this ‘little’ revelation! Financial fair play? yir havin a laff

    I don’t think there is financial fair play in Scotland? Might be in some European competitions.

    Would SFA be keen to implement financial fair play given where it might lead ...

    Maybe not in Scotland directly, however, UEFA have rules governing the amount of spending and debt related to annual income for teams looking to compete in European competition. These kunts must be issuing shares or something to offset the amount of debt, whichever way they do it though can only end in tears, hopefully, fingers crossed, please, please if there is a God up there

    it is a perfectly legal way of doing it BUT we should be man marking the clubs who have entered admin and liquidation. With clear rules. Revenue expenditure set it at 50% for 10 years then 75% for 5 then on ya go kill yersel.

    That would stop this ****

    Dundee apparently near £5mill of concern now. A quick Can i have my ground back and they are gone. Nelms seems to be doing a homer simpson into bushes too.

    granted we aint flush and lots of soft loans so not sure how you compare this. BUT we have never been in admin nor ****ed up local businesses

    It was in the Courier how much on average each club pays their top 21 players.

    If I remember correctly it was something like

    Celtic £750,000 each player
    The Rangers £450,000 each player
    Aberdeen £180,000 each player
    Hibs £140,000 each player
    Hearts £140,000 each player
    Dundee £55,000 each player

    Why could The Rangers not steady their ship and pay more like Aberdeen?
