Aye. He goes to inhospitable places, where the natives are very hostile, and crime runs rife...Bit like a trip to Ibrox really.
Blah, blah, blah... Rangers WERE a club with debt of over £100m playing in the SPL. Now they no longer exist meaning the SPL is much better off financially. It's no rocket salad Medro.
Can you tell me when a team got so greedy they ripped off all the other clubs then went into liquidation owing £130 million and left everyone else to pick up the pieces? Can you also tell me why the arrogance and stupidity of this club's fans has them believing it was anyones fault but their own?
Sorry if I was being too obtuse, the problem isn't with the money you owe(d) clubs in the SPL, the issue is with the contempt Rangers displayed to the league and it's members by so recklessly conducting their affairs, financially speaking. Rangers had an obligation to the other SPL members to ensure the sustainability of the SPL in its previous guise (with Rangers in it I mean) and they failed miserably. 10 clubs have fed off the disproportionate Celtic and Rangers support in this Country for decades and in order to change that set up (if one wanted) there is a right and a wrong way to go about it. Demand a new league structure. Apply to the English or Transatlantic league for example, those (might) have been acceptable alternatives. But to go into financial meltdown and have to start again may let you off the hook with regards the £130 million owing to creditors but it leaves a gap in the financial model that existed and that clubs budgeted for and they are now paying the price. So who's fault is it that some clubs are struggling?
The chairmen of the clubs who so recklessly conducted their affairs, financially speaking, that they allowed themselves to become overly dependant on another club? The chairmen of the clubs who, while not killing the Golden Goose, voted it into exile for the next 3 years?
How embarrassed are you going to be if it turns out the SPL are cash strapped because of the Rangers affair?
I'm not avoiding anything because I have no interest in your pointless question. You asked the question so as to avoid my point. I was merely making the point that ridding an industry of a business which has considerably more debt than all the other businesses put together does not make the industry a weaker place.
