Paul Lambert - As thick as he sounds

[Hoofballer]

Quite long, but worth a listen. The more Rae goes on the more English destroys his argument

Well done Tom English , bang on with that.

Scottish football “needs” Rangers........too late, they went, gone, dead, ceased to exist....it’s an ex football club .....and this new club is kak and about as well run as the last one that went tits up !

The only good thing about the championship is that because they don’t talk about us on Radio Scotland or Sportscene there’s no need to listen in to this biased nonsense every week

They should never be allowed to airbrush history and move on in a 'There's Nothing To See Here' style. I honestly don't know what is complicated about this. They went into administration, failed to emerge from it and were liquidated. As a consequence they ceased to exist and could not therefore fulfill fixtures so fell out of the league. They then reformed as new Club/company and re applied to join the league. Thinking they could by pass every league regulation in existence they thought they could get re admitted to the top league, but ultimately, correctly, the member clubs would not sanction it. Indeed loads of rules were broken for them to even get in at the bottom rung.

Further there are corporation laws specifically outlawing the very practice they carried out - I.e. liquidating, walking away from debts and responsibilities then setting up the next day as a 'new' entity that somehow still operates out of the same offices, carrying out the same business, wearing the same 'uniforms' and, worse, brazenly proclaiming still that this new company was 'established' in 1873. Imagine if Kwik Fit went bust, diddled HMRC and many others out of millions, but then set up the next day as Qwick Fit, wearing blue uniforms and selling tyres and claiming they had done this for years. Come to think of it they couldn't, because it's ILLEGAL.

^^^ This. Fecking Zombie b@stards.

Bizarre article, always knew Lambert was a thicko but this is very odd. Must be something more to it though, is he gonna be the new Sevco manager?!?

Edit to add to the above - and for the avoidance of any doubt, they were NEVER 'relegated'.

Yet another sensational statement made today by one of The Rangers directors, in it he says “generating money from European competition will be the main avenue by which Rangers hope to narrow the financial gap between themselves and Celtic”

Oh my hooring sides

[LSArab]

If they go under again it will be the bank’s fault of course.

[TerryTheTerror]

Nah, it'll definitely be our fault.

[ahlltanyirhide]

Nah, it'll definitely be our fault.

Without a doubt T, as once uttered in a sh*thole of a pub in deepest darkest Govan ‘ah hate dindee yinitid’ it’s now ingrained in their pschye.

[Hoofballer]

Do you think any of this income and winnings from their great European runs and trophy laden seasons will be used to reduce their current debts and losses......?

Things have gone so well for them this year after accumulating the massive war chest to spend after playing to 3 men, 2 dugs and a goat in Luxembourg

If the creditors shut the doors on castle greyskull again then at least there is a new structure for them to follow. The lowland league is open to entries. Would feel sorry for Stirling Uni and Edusport Academy having to welcome that lot. About the right level for the new Sevco
