If they are in that much trouble as Phil says, accepting a first bid of £900k is barely going to do alot other than piss the fans and Manager off and set alarm bells ringing. They quoted £1.4m to Forest and I think they expected another bid to come in. Don't forget Wallace would be entitled to a fair chunk of that anyway.
 
It would have bought them time until the season tickets go on sale though.

Of course they are in financial trouble, you cant pay guys 5k a week in the second division, but I doubt it is as bad as people say. Would expect redundancies to start happening at ibrox soon though.
 
£400k wouldn't do them alot of good though, plus fans would be pissed off at selling so cheap and they need the fans on side or else they stop showing up and that £1m a month increases as income is down.
 
Graham Wallace was asked in one of the Q&As he did about a rumour they would run out of cash come April, his answer was he was "confident there would still be money come April".

If it was bollocks I would expect a far more assuring answer than he was confident!!

Think a lot of them are on much more than that! I think their biggest issue is the fact that of the reported £16m wage bill per year only about £6-7m is players wages. Whores are pissing away £10m a year on highly paid non playing staff who are bringing **** all back in. Its that simple. They have the fan base to be able to afford the second biggest players wage bill in Scotland. They maybe need to downsize a little on the players side of things and they are trying to have an SPL quality (albeit not a good one) team now - despite the fact they wont be there for 2 years at least

Anyone who wasn't born in Ireland shouldn't be allowed to call themselves Irish.

Aye, how far back are we counting here. My family left Cork during the famine but I don't consider myself Irish.

If I did I could easily call myself African or Asian seeing as we share common ancestry. Then I'd be Caucasian African Asian Scots-Irish.
 
Well, my mother's parents were Germans and I do have a general hatred for Jews and *****s but I don't call myself German.
