My reaction to the Glasgow Rangers 17 million loss

17 million loss! Jesus! How did our esteemed Glasgow Rangers board members allow this to happen? Talk about falling asleep at the wheel.

In the past few years, below is our path we have been on, with a rough figure on how much money we generated. But for what? To still end up in the dire situation we come to find ourselves in.

League Champions!

EL Finalists – £17.3m prize money alone!

SC winners!

CL qualifiers – £13.2m just for qualifying!

League cup winners!

Player trading with sales of £19m, £12m, £5.5m, £5m, £5m, £4.8m, £4m!

Qualifying for EL group stages in concurrent years where we made minimum £10m each time!

Largest kit supplier contract bringing in record profits!

45k season ticket sales every season at average £550 per ticket!

Shirt sponsorship money!

My Gers money!

Merchandise!

Hospitality!

And every other revenue stream you have milked us for!

And where are we now? An absolute shambles – Not just on the park, but quite obviously off the park too! £1.7m in the bank?! WTH? How? When? Who? Arrrrr! Honestly, I could scream!

So, we are now sitting 3rd in the league, messed up CL qualifying, 6 points behind our biggest rivals, a playing squad so poor that we are watching some of the worst football we have witnessed in years, no money, no leader at the helm, a boardroom so thin on the ground and with no direction, a fan base losing patience and hope, a manager out of his depth, players not fit to wear the jersey, the weakest we’ve been in years, and now to top it all, posting a loss of 17.2m!

This, I’m afraid, is financial mismanagement at best, or a total dereliction of duty and care at worst. Are our board not meant to be successful businessmen? Wow! Successful? They need dragged over hot coals for allowing us to sink so low again. We are a sinking ship!

I’m sorry, but some can spin this all they want, but how can we go from league champions to EL Finalists to CL qualification while breaking our transfer record for selling a player, raking in records on kit sales, season tickets, sponsorship, etc etc, to the absolute mess we find ourselves in tonight?!

My heart has sank to levels not experienced since the dark days, and I don’t think I want to know anymore. Enough is enough! I just don’t have it in me for all this crap again.

Our “leaders” (That’s a joke), have got richer off our money, either from inflated salaries, or interest they have made off soft loans. And for what? One measly title, two cups, one qualification to the CL, and a run to the final in EL. While all the while, we need to watch our biggest rival win title after title, hoover up the cups, make tens of millions on player sales, qualify for CL again, have us on toast in the league, get stronger each season, while they sit back and pee themselves laughing at the total basket case we are.

Nope! No more! We are a joke, just not a funny one! We are now in such a perilous situation that I see no hope of any more league titles, and the realism that the tims will not only beat our title and trophy record, they will smash it into smithereens- and in no time at all, they will be out of sight of it with no hope of ever getting back on top. To hell with it!

To every board member, ex board member, or senior executive/ manager etc, you are a total joke, and you have turned us into the biggest joke in Scottish football, again! Yip, the banter years are well and truly back, and I don’t see an end to them now. You should all be ashamed of yourselves, but I doubt any of you will lose any sleep over it. Well, no more. After this season you won’t be making a penny out of me, and I doubt I’ll be the only one saying this. Get it round the lot of you! Hang your heads, you absolute bunch of jokers.
