Looks like former owner Charles Green and a member of the administration team have been charged by Glasgow Polis with fraudulent activity.

No news yet what he's been charged with, only that he's been arrested.
And not quite the "Glasgow polis", he's currently under lock and key in Livingston.

No such thing as Glasgow Polis anymore. We're all under Police Scotland who's Chief Constable has just resigned and will get a £500,000 pay-off and £100,000 a year from his £2m pension pot! Now that is criminal!

Craig Whyte now arrested as well.
Green and Whyte, a good one for the conspiracy theorists.

A 3 and a half year old joke that one.

Wasn't funny then, isn't funny now.
Glad to see these two finally spend a night behind bars. Hopefully more to come!

We have just lent them one of our most valuable young assets they had better not lead them astray, kids are very impressionable at that age.

Very different situation there now. Genuine supporters in the boardroom and a proper manager in charge. I'm still wary especially as the chairman can be a bit shady but at least he's a fan. A long way still to go but I'm more optimistic now than for years.
Hopefully if we eventually get some guilty verdicts against Green and Whyte the club will be able to free itself from Ashley's shackles as well.

Good, Scottish football desperately needs Rangers to be a force again Celtic make the league a pointless one sided exercise at the moment, I don't really see how they even enjoy winning it anymore.

Yes, many Scots wish they could join the EPL for a better contest both north and south of the border.

Like it was in the 90's when Rangers steamrollered everyone other than a few close runs in than later part of 9iar.
Everyone enjoys winning, regardless how easy.
Celtic do need Rangers in the top tier without doubt as it will bring Celtic fans back to Parkhead if nothing else.

Sense of humour is a personal thing so I'm sure plenty of people find it funny where as others naturally don't.
But it is at least a touch ironic.

Celtic seem to be doing not too bad financially of late as a feeder club for 2nd tier PL clubs in England. They've banked around £25m in the last 12 months or so from Southampton alone.
But where would they put their big giant banner that covers the top tier of the old Rangers end if fans bought tickets for those seats???

No idea on where they would fit in the league structure, but would love to see the Scottish (and other Welsh) teams included in a BPL (British Premier League) (and NI as well? I don't know whether they have separate leagues to Ireland?). Only issue would be cost of travel for fans! (although seems to work well enough in foreign, bigger countries!). A lot of the teams fly these days so wouldn't impact the players much.
Leagues would be local at the bottom, building up to the pinnacle, the BPL.

It certainly was, especially as things turned out the way the "green and whyte" jokes were suggesting..

If the last centre half to make the trip from Southampton to Liverpool is anything to go by, maybe not...
