James Bisgrove delivered an exciting interview to the broadcast media yesterday, everything about Bisgrove is exciting.

If you are opening a Sports Bar it is exciting, introducing a Disabled Section is an exciting Disabled Section. The club has an exciting young manager, there are exciting transfers coming up and you can probably guess how he feels about a study into Safe Standing before finding a reason not to go ahead with exciting changes inside Ibrox.

The next few weeks will be out and out misery for Ibrox fans as the Record reluctantly covers more Celtic trophy celebrations. There is the champions homecoming today, next Saturday is Presentation Day with the Scottish Cup Final offering the prospect of a fifth treble on the watch of James Tavernier.

Should Celtic win the Scottish Cup on June 3 they will overtake the trophy haul of the old Rangers club that died of shame back in 2012 when Her Majesty rejected an insulting CVA. Since then the Tribute Act has added two trophies, winning something every five years isn’t an exciting prospect for entitled bears with Bisgrove charged with stopping the nightmare scenario.

Signing up for exciting crypto currency deals is all well and good, much like the exciting Castore kit deal but excitement will be muted if the Blue Room highlights in 12 months time remains the St Etienne Bike, The Loving Cup and a replica of the 2016 Petrofac Challenge Cup.

Reporting on Bisgrove’s exciting interview, David McCarthy informs Record readers:

A comprehensive victory over Celtic made everything in the Bisgrove Garden a little bit rosier this week but Rangers’ new chief executive knows the hard work is just about to get started.

And James Bisgrove has enough on his plate without having to bring interior designers to the Rangers Training Centre next season to pull down and replace The Most Successful Club In The World logo that dominates the reception area. Yet, that’s exactly the scenario facing the man who is about to become the new CEO if Celtic’s domestic dominance is allowed to continue and their collection of cups keeps on growing.

Rangers might have 117 trophies in the bag but Celtic’s silverware surge will bring them to within one of that haul if they win the Scottish Cup – and a repeat of what would be a Treble next term will see the Ibrox club overtaken. Bisgrove is smart enough to know that won’t look great on his watch and he insists he’s ready for the challenge to make sure it doesn’t happen.

There was no grandstanding as the 38-year-old spoke to the media on Friday, but he was slick. Said the right things without giving too much away as he spoke of the need for Rangers to engage more with bodies such as the SPFL and their rivals across the city when it comes to ticket allocations for Old Firm games.

In June 2012 the Record informed their army of readers of the death of Rangers, end end of 140 years of history.

Realising the pain and distress of that issue they decided to pretend that liquidation was ‘financial difficulties’ and that the club formed by Charles Green was the same as the one towards the cliff by Sur Dave before passing the keys to a billionaire from Motherwell.

In reality Real Madrid are known by all as the World’s Most Successful club, only a complete idiot would equate 14 European Cups/Champions Leagues with the Scottish League Cup which has been won by giants such as St Mirren, Kilmarnock, Aberdeen, Ross County and St Johnstone since it last visited Ibrox.

    If we win the treble we will become the most successful team in Scotland FACT .
    The club that held that record died in 2012 and can never add to their haul .
    Every time the MSM promote the BIG LIE embarrases what is left of their proffesion.

    Walters Myth of Continuity

    Alan Dewar QC, representing Charles Green at the Inner House of the Court of Session, has stated that ” The Rangers football club does not exist, it is an idea in people’s minds, a myth of continuity. No-one knows what the Rangers football club is, but it has no legal personality.”
    Mr Dewar adds that ” you can only be the chairman of an entity that has a legal personality. Sevco Scotland, and it alone, bought the assets and carried on the business. The concept of the Rangers Institution continuing exists only in the minds of die hard supporters.”
    Mr Dewar was responding to a question by one of the three appeal court judges who inquired: “Why is it so important that Rangers football club is Sevco Scotland rather than an institution going back 100 years?”
    Mr Dewar emphasized that Green bought ” the business and assets of the Rangers entity” then acted on behalf of, and for the benefit of the shareholders of Sevco Scotland. Jonathan Brown, who presented Mr Green’s original petition to Lord Doherty, is also representing Green at the hearing. RIFC’ counsel is Mr Walker. RIFC’s instructing solicitors, Anderson Strathern, are represented by RIFC Company Secretary James Blair.

    “Exists only in the minds of die hard supporters “

    Now you would assume that the actual person who fronted the bid to buy said Assets would know what he was purchasing legally before lumping his dosh on to the table with his big Yorkshire hands ?
    Hence why every tabloid and media outlet at the time correctly advertised the fact they were no more.
    It took a Clandestine meeting of the relevant institutions to come up with a cover story of surviving Liquidation but as of yet not one single recording of the minutes to that meeting has ever been made public in the decade or so since it took place.

    • Justshatered says:

      I said for years that not long after RFC was consigned to Liquidation, and all the headlines died down, the media realised what they had printed and broadcast.
      That meant no more “Old Firm” branding or playing fans off against each other.
      At that point a meeting was held between all the paper Editors and Broadcast media where yhe “Survival Lie” was agreed.
      In every aspect of the media there are different opinions but not on this issue. We have to ask why is that.
