The Mark and Joey show

I’m told that the Sevco High Command are bracing for legal impact this week.

The chaps in the Blue Room are anticipating a formal missive from the representatives from the Admirable Warburton and his two colleagues.

I’m told that the Ibrox Three have not heard anything back since they were last in touch with their previous employers.

One bit of brighter financial news is apropos the French-speaking playmaker who brought so much to the Scottish game in his brief sojourn.

I believ that Monsieur Barton is due a final tranche of his severance settlement quite soon.

However, his gambling difficulties might have given the Sevco High Command a money saving out on this one.

My information is that this is currently being considered within the upper reaches of the Holding Company Vehicle.

Just to think that these two fine fellows once embodied such hope for The People at the start of this season.

 

 

Ah bless…

  1. Aye, Lee Wallace has a lot to answer for, he must feel like a real yin now.

    On a lighter note, to The Clumpster, if I may:
    I tracked down Stan Laurel, via the medium of spirit board and clairvoyant, and he DID have something to say, but not on how to improve Sevco.

    He said ‘I’m not Clint Eastwood’s Dad.’

    And that was it, he was away back to the netherworld where, I presume, he can watch the ghost of Rangers Past play their ethereal ‘fitba’ in a world bossed by darkness and eternal damnation, while the original Flipper claps mockingly on the sidelines.

    Och well, eh ..?

    • On reflection, it could’ve been “I’m not Squint Eastwood’s Dad’ wee Stan said, thereby absolving himself of all and any involvement in the entire sorry Ibrox saga.

      It was hard to tell, what with the spooky echo and the wind blowing through all the cracks in the roof.

    • Looks like it, Joe, but I’d imagine they’ll have to give their very own Captain Grasstastic a few bob for his wedding out of their ‘Joey Fund’ Savings, seeing as he was the one who brought the Scouse Cantona’s dodgy double dealings to light in the first place ..?

      Then there’s the upcoming Pedro Pay Off to consider, includimg that of Helder The Baptist, plus the much maligned Warbo/Weirdo/Wacko compensation package, then the Ashley case, the wifi family, Dave’s 1st Class flights oer the Limpopo, at 12 grand a popo, the Seasoned Professional’s ‘outrageous’ salary, flights, accommodation and Breakfast To Match Murray Parks, in their trips to and from Europe for the entire ‘Best Squad In The World’ etc etc

      On reflection, I wouldn’t exactly call it ‘a break’, more like a slight delay in the money stream they’re constantly pissing doon the lavvy.

      Thanks again, Phil, for these updates & missives but I’m sorry to tell you that you have some serious rivals in the blogging stakes this week, as The Bear Pit & Follow Follow have become THE place to be for laugh-a-minute delusional comedy.

      It’s like John Cleese, Spike Milligan & The Clumpany all got together in one room to write a spoof about ‘Rangers’, except, for these lost souls, it’s actually real, as the truth about their new reality finally sinks into their consciousness.

      I’ve never been one to mock the afflicted but, in this instance, my own history forces me to make the exception.

      Hail Hail to you, Phil, and to Brendan & the Bhoys.

      I just wish we could’ve scored 10 on Saturday.
