He is still in charge. They’re making the poor fucker work out his notice period.
Rangers Supporters Trust believe that calling them Sevco or Newco is sectarian and people should be arrested for it.
RST Concerns Over Upcoming Old Firm Game
The Rangers Supporters Trust wishes to express its concern at what we consider to be a clear attempt by some online elements of the Celtic support to incite trouble ahead of an Old Firm game which already has the potential to be a powder keg fixture.
We, along with the vast majority of the Rangers support, noted with some amusement the recent advert taken out by Celtic supporters in a once respected Sunday newspaper. However, what has followed makes us considerably more uneasy. There is now no question that a hardcore element of the Celtic support are not content with the troubles which have plagued our club over the past few years. For them, Rangers Football Club, and by extension its fans, must cease to exist.
Whether this stems from an inferiority complex amongst part of a generation who had to live through Nine-In-A Row, or whether it is down to a more ingrained bigotry, a fierce football rivalry is not sufficient for these people. We are extremely concerned that the rhetoric and hatred spewed out by the likes of Phil MacGiollabhain, Angela Haggerty, Paul Brennan’s CQN website and others, is a deliberate attempt to try to stoke sectarian fires and incite violence at the upcoming fixture.
One need only view the reaction of some Celtic fans to the recent blog by MacGiollabhain entitled “The Fenian Blood Festival” to see how these people operate. MacGiollabhain himself has never challenged the assertion that he is “tarred with a sickening sectarian brush” and he has willing servants in Miss Haggerty, CQN and several other online Celtic sites. We urge all sane Celtic fans to ignore their bile.
We hope the upcoming fixture will be fiercely contested. We hope, despite being clear underdogs, that Rangers will win. We also hope that fans of both teams will be able to travel to and watch the match safely. We hope that Police Scotland, as well as policing the day effectively, will take careful note of those who continue to try to incite violence at the upcoming fixture. It would be an odd legal system that arrested people for singing songs but ignored hate speech and incitement of violence. Should the worst happen, we hope the full force of the law will be brought to bear not only on the perpetrators of any trouble but also those who encourage it online.
Rangers and our fans have many challenges to face in the months and years ahead. Challenges which are considerably more important to our long term future than this upcoming Old Firm game. We urge Rangers fans to stay safe, behave in a way which can make us all proud of our club and enjoy their day."

I was at that too :-)))
If this is celtic vs sevco, and we all know sevco is a brand new club, why are all the cretins putting up celtic vs rangers vids
Are we nervous at all about how this might go?
We’re clearly a much better team, both as individuals in every position, and as a collective. But there are a couple of concerns.
Firstly, we are shit at the back. They don’t have a very potent strike force but you don’t need to be anything above ordinary to get chances against Celtic. Denayer back beside Virgil does add some stability but our system offers very little protection to that defence and we’re still a way off being good enough back there to cope with this style. We are particularly vulnerable to chances on the break but the main problems are when our centre backs get dragged outside the near post and we end up relying on the full back (who may still be up at the halfway line) covering the centre of the goal.
Secondly, we’ve had mixed results against teams that sit very deep. Since Guidetti’s form vanished we have looked predictable too often. Stokes and Izzy do offer something on the left, Johansen can be effective, Commons is a threat from distance and we’re beginning to get more from our right back position. But it’s frequently been a bit slow and stale in the central areas and I can imagine Sevco packing those areas and relying on outnumbering us. They’re a bit all over the shop defensively based on some of their recent games but it’s easier to defend en masse than to break down a packed defence and I think they’ll just hope to frustrate us for as long as possible and hope we gift them a chance on the break.
Not sure any of that matters though. We’re far better and hopefully we keep the high tempo from recent games going from the start to the end and I don’t think any sort of collective defensive effort will really be enough to stop us creating chances. I’d be more comfortable if we’d a striker in decent goalscoring form but we should win by a half dozen or so.

Not in the slightest mate. Think it’ll be very comfortable
Great news mate, that’s put me completely at ease.
Dundee United have come from behind to defeat Aberdeen 2-1 in the first semi-final.
The pitch is meant to have cut up massively.

This will suits Sevco’s more agricultural football but we’ll still thump them.
Going out now, I’ve put these away for safe keeping
