Latest on the Ferguson crisis.

------------------------------

David Murray tonight confirmed that Rangers tabled a bid of 2.5 million
for Ferguson but McLean says no bids have been received and if they were,
he confirmed that he will NOT sell Ferguson to any Club especially Rangers.

The reporters in both the Sunday 'Ibrox' Mail and the Sunday 'David Murray'
Post both condemn McLean as a liar and emphasize that Ferguson will join
Rangers eventually.

It is reported that Ferguson has banked 35,000 already this season. 
Since he never earned that much last season, the question is where has
the money come from? Rangers are quoted as saying that the player is just
the type THEY require. What with Fergusons' performances lately, it
is hard not to reason that the player has recieved some sort of backhander
from the Murray empire, in order to get himself a transfer.

Duncan Ferguson agreed to and signed a contract which ties him to the 
club till 1998. McLean can be stubborn, but why should WE lose the services 
of our best striker just when we are beginning to mould a team, to some 
pansy big-headed bigotted outfit? Denis Roache should be publicly made 
to apologise to McLean and Agents should be outlawed by the SFA.

Where are the SFA in all of this? Doing S(od) F(uck) A(ll) thats' what.
Rangers have made an obvious delibarate illegal approach to a player
under contract to DUFC and are being allowed to get away with it!!!!!!
The "Loyal" Rangers following(who pissed off between 1980 and 1986 but
came back following Sounesss' first championship) may see nothing wrong
in trying to 'strengthen their team', but they should think twice before
passing a comment on this article because I have plenty to say on the issue
and I have facts on my side, what do they have? Bare-faced lies thats'
what.


As far as the United board are concerned, RANGERS CAN GO FUCK THEMSELVES,
As far as we Arabs are concerned, RANGERS CAN GO FUCK THEMSELVES,
As far as ANY "BIG" CLUB are concerned, FERGUSON IS NOT FOR SALE TO
ANYONE AT ANY PRICE.

Rangers wouldn't pull this stunt on Aberdeens' hotshots' Jess and Booth,
but United suffer all the time. First it was our manager you wanted, then
the assistant manager, then Dodds, Gough, Kirkwood all followed to the 
'homeland', at Ibrox. When Gallacher was at Tannadice, no Rangers
interest was ever declared? 

Why is it that Ferguson suits Rangers "STYLE"? The Hunz ain't got no style,
their players use the power method of 'playing?' football i.e., they
put the heads down and charge at the opposition.

Iain Ferguson is a dirty wee shite who has never seen a football in his 
life but kens' how tae amputate the opposition players legs. Stuart McCall 
is just another heidcase fae England.  Peter Huistra and Dale Gordon are
another set of dirty buggers who scream if they don't get things their
own way, Gough had class but has now lost it all, Goram, Robertson,
Steven, McCoist, Hately, and Durrant are either has-beens, never-beens but
are as Dirty as hell.

The referees' here in Scotland are weak and utterly biased towards Rangers.
No referee has the backbone to clamp down on the many fouls, penalties and
offsides which are never awarded but occur when Rangers are on the rack.

There is nothing glamorous about defending and waiting on lucky breaks for
90 minutes. This is how Rangers intimidate other teams into submission.
God, if United got the same breaks as Rangers get every week, we'd
be so far in front at the top of the table, the Championship would have
been won by now.

Where were Rangers when Ferguson was available? 
Did they sign him as a youngster and develop his talent? 
Did they FUCK. 

Where were Rangers when Gough first went on trial there? 
Did they sign him and develop his talent?
Did they FUCK. 

Where were the loyal Rangers support during the lean years of the early 
eighties? 
Did they support the team, players and manager? 
Did they give any of them time to field a settled side and bring success to 
their club? 
Did they FUCK.

Now that United have unearthed him and polished him off, they want the 
finished article at a knock down price! And why not!

Ian Ferguson  reared by Clyde, played for St. Mirren and
joins Rangers for 1 million

David Robertson reared by Aberdeen joins Rangers for 1.25 million.

Andy Goram reared by Oldham, signed by Rangers from Hibs for 1 million.

Ally McCoist reared by St. Johnstone, signed by Rangers from Sunderland
for 325,000.

All these players would have been outstanding successes for their
own clubs but each were nobbled in turn by Rangers and eventually signed
for the Hunz. Rangers fans may call me a bigot for using the term, Hun, to
describe their LOYAL following but then I don't chant sectarian songs
at an Old Firm game, I don't go along to the Masons every night for a 
slash, I'm not the one who uses or brings religion into a sport and
shouts, 'Feign Bastards'  towards all Catholic players. 

I do give credit that there are some Gers' fanz who are sociable and 
support the club and team as it should be but there are a hell of a lot of
glory hunting, bigotted, fat hooligans who find it funny to piss in
peoples' closes and gardens, and find it amuzing to spit on the ball boys
at other grounds during the game. These people demand at all costs that
Rangers should win every game, these people should not EXPECT to get their
own way at every game, these people demand the best but they have no right
to encourage their club to persue players which the other club obviously 
aren't wanting to sell. 


For the good of the Clubs' image, McLean should say nothing to the press,
stick Ferguson in the reserves until 1998 and then before his contract 
expires, either offer him terms or sell him, if the big clubs are still 
interested in what would be a 26 year old has-been who hasn't been in the 
public eye for 5 years and who will obviously be a failed professional
footballer.
