    And they've subsequently closed that obviously ridiculous loophole haven't they?

    Anyway, the actually serious point is that this rule might genuinely be detrimental to some smaller clubs. But Rangers haven't got a leg to stand on.

    Bunch of mopes

    All depends what their specific contract states according to Fraser Wishart. Do you not have any confidence in mccoists ability to spot a player and get the best out of them either?

    I'm actually quite amused by the idea of Rangers playing "trialists" in a proper league game. It's quaintly amateurish, befitting their new status <ok>

    Medro means business - bold font! <laugh>

    I was making the point about the absurdity of playing a footballer with a contract as a trialist.

    Which is a valid point when you consider this is nothing but a loophole which needed closing.

    Interesting "logic" <laugh>

    It's certainly a continuation of the old club. Whether it's the precise "same" club or merely the heir to the "old" one, I'll leave that to others to get worked up about. Personally I don't much care. <ok>

    I'm looking forward to Rangers getting to the SPL. I reckon there will be about 33% more beel this time round, it'll be a laugh.

    I too look forward to it also :grin:

    I wonder if Neil "easiest job in football" Lennon is still there. I doubt it. He will have had his head turned by some job in the EPL or perhaps abroad. Especially if he has another great run in the CL next season. Where else would he get zero domestic pressure to allow Euro runs like that?

    He'll either be in the EPL or in jail.

    Ally is ****e. We're no in danger of losing him, whereas Sir Lenny Of Tombstone Teeth will be offski on a wave of admiration built on a good Euro run while competing with **** all domestically. Still failed easiest treble ever. Twice.

    Rangers, under a decent manager, would have rattled the **** oot him.
