I was just putting in the Jimmy Stone thread I thought Roly was a poor version of Ashley.
Ashley effectively owns Rangers - what with the loans. If they don't play I dare say he wouldn't think twice about recalling the loans and leaving them in the shit. So he can get his players noticed and up to speed to play for Newcastle so he can then either sell on for profit or shift on other players and slot these in.
He also has Newcastle in a steady mid table position in the premier league. I doubt he will get a shiny new manager and fund players to really push them on any further.
I suppose the difference is these players will probably improve Rangers...
To be honest, Newcastle's U12 girls should be starting in the Scottish Championship.
Bloody hell, I think if we were in Scotland Roland would insist he gets a run out. In fact why doesn't he just buy a great Scottish club like Hamilton Tannadice Burnistown or whoever plays in that pit of a nonsense league now. Extending the network to Scotland opens up a whole new area of possibilities for him
Also, I like the way in the BBC article that it references they took a £10m loan from Ashley, to help pay back a £3m loan from Ashley
"Ashley, who owns 8.92% of the Ibrox outfit, provided them with a £10m loan in January to ensure they stay in business. While £5m was available as immediate working capital, the influx of cash was also used to repay a £3m loan made by the Newcastle United owner last year."

The domestic game in Scotland, what a joke
Its just the new Rangers and Doncaster et al. that are a joke. The rest of the teams are carrying on like nothings happened and managing to produce a fairly exciting competition at both the top and bottom of the SPL.
Aside from that it was MASH that loaned Rangers £3m and its Sports Direct that are loaning the £10m to pay for running costs, of which £3m is paying back MASH. Additionally £5 of the 10 wont be given straight away either.
Which is just the legal version of what you said...
The new Rangers lot are far funnier and more worthwhile than that old rangers lot

I thought it was Sports Direct - typical reporting, the wording says Ashley loans them £10m, part of which will be used to repay a £3m loan he made last year. I appreciate it is semantics, but they should specify Sports Direct/MASH

Maybe I'm slightly confused. MASH where the company who bought the shares.
I definitely read somewhere that the first £3m and the second £10m where from different Ashley owned companies. As part of it Sports direct also get transfered a further 26% of Rangers share in Rangers retail Limited. To which shirt sponsorship money will be paid so even less revenue and more dependance.

I will accept that I will also lose credibility from Rangers fans for still making the accusation they are a new club...
You're probably right. I just think that the story is now so convoluted (and boring) that the BBC are just referring to Ashley as everything. In fact give it another month and they'll be calling them Sports Direct Rangers FC

1-1 after we take the lead in the 89th minutes.
We take our 1 striker off and replace him with another c/b after our goal.
