Hi Ed, loads of rumours about the monkeys right now! refs with EBT's (unconfirmed), jail time for high profile ex board members and staff! (if found guilty) scottish journalists owed money!(why?) Allegations of fraud at a higher level than we could ever have imagined! It's getting bigger and bigger every day, but I don't know what is true and what isn't......any ideas boss?

sparky88 {Ed007's Note - There is that much BS flying about mate it is hard to know what to believe and what not to. A lot of it is just speculation on 'what ifs'.}

{Ed007's Note - CFC, Blackpool, Middlesbrough and Bristol City are being linked with a £1.1 million move for Stephen Dobbie.}

I hope not mate
Conor67 {Ed007's Note - Only passing it on Conor mate, there's not much happens at Blackpool that Ed003 doesn't know about.}

Always thought he was a decent player, even when he was at Queen of the South, but I really don't think he will add the quality we need for the CL! Far from it IMO!

Don't think that's a good signing an average

You're right Ed, Holmes has had his contract extended by Tranmere, but he's stuck on the same wage, which is what is making me think he might be trying to get a bit more money, especially as a couple of their big earners have left. I think its lazy journalism in Scotland, recycling January's rumours, and him either hoping his big chance of moving to a big club isn't over or getting a bit more money. Nothing reliable is running the story, so I don't believe it, and by all accounts he's pretty average, not even Tranmere's best full back last year, according to a couple of the lads I know who go the Tranmere games.

Housebuilders and property developers Allan Stewart and Stephen McKenna plan to bid about £11m for Newco Rangers.

The company Aleftav Ltd will be the purchase vehicle.

The company was incorporated on 2 August 2010 under the name of Payment Protection Rebates Ltd. On 28 February 2011 it changed it's name to Alefta Ltd and on 10 February 2012 changed it's name to Aleftav Ltd.

Stewart and McKenna are the only two listed Directors. The company does not appear to have a trading history and is therefore a "clean" company, with cash of bank of £2 in the last set of accounts for the period ending 31/08/2011.

K-Dot. {Ed007's Note - Allan Stewart was banned from being a company director for seven years during the 1990s. And I would be amazed if both of them have that sort of money between, the money will be coming from a third party. Allen Stewart used to be called Allen Stewart Bulloch, look up Grampian Glazing and also a certain Mr Purcell from GCC connection to Stewart (Bulloch).}

Yes Ed, there is a bit of history there. They liquidated Stewart & McKenna Ltd over an unpaid Tax bill of £78k.

K-Dot. {Ed007's Note - Another couple of 'invisible' names pop their head over the parapet K-Dot....}

ED007, KDot, what is it about that ex team that seems to attract all the shysters.... Timalloy {Ed007's Note - The gullibility of the old teams fans and individual's penchants for taking gullible people's money from them in a short space of time, seems to be a major driving force.}

It's amazing Timalloy.

On here to escape the fight on trolling going on, on the Liverpool site, after battling the main troll, have you heard about that Ed007? Talk of our site being shut down if it continues. Anyway, the reason you're being linked to Holmes at Tranmere is because he said he would be "delighted to play for Celtic if a deal could be agreed". So its come from him, which could mean he just wants a better contract a bit like the Wanyama situation or you might actually have an interest.

Smithy {Ed007's Note - I am just online mate as I have been busy all day. It's about time the LFC Eds toughened up on the Gilfnards Smithy. I very rarely post or answer posts that don't have a name on them and pay even less attention to posts from mobiles that don't have a name. And if people want to keep abusing editors there are other avenues open to us to deal with it. Common decency and courtesy is not a lot to ask, but if you want to act like a kn*b then I am happy to treat you like one. Obviously not you mate, it's just the team you support that makes you a kn*b!! People could learn a lot by looking at the LFC, Utd and Arsenal sites. Posts without a name don't get much of a response because it is hard to trust or interact with someone who doesn't even have the brain power to think up a nickname to use. I personally would rather have a login system to get rid of the idiots, it's not as if we need to hit-whore or are desperate to get hits, it would cut down on a lot of the Eds work as well.

Didn't Tranmere trigger a years extension in Holmes contract? Press reports up here are saying his contract is due to run out but I'm not sure about that.}

Smithy, welcome to our "troll free" site thanks to ED007. have you any other euro bets on, both mines were beaten by Russia and France. Smithy, is this Tranmere guy any good, give us your honest LFC "scout" opinion Timalloy

Ed…I’m just wondering would any new football club that is formed as the result of Ranger Football Club PLC being liquidated, have to apply to enter the 3rd Division.

I just remember at the Airdrie time, they applied and were refused in favour of Gretna. It seems to be a foregone conclusion that if they are not voted back into SPL then its definitely the 3rd Division.

Mrs E {Ed007's Note - If it goes to a vote for entry into the SFL then Spartans and Cove Rangers will also apply for the position.}

SFA employees involved in player registrations since 1998 have been told to report to the offices of Harper McLeod, so as precognitions can be taken from them.

How Ogilvie can remain is post is beyond me.

K-Dot.

Precognitions? Are you saying that SFA employees involved in player contracts have to advise Harper McLeod of things they were going to become aware of in future?

BBC are reporting we're after that Danny Holmes from Tranmere who nearly signed for The Club Formerly Known As Rangers. Don't really think we need him because as far as I know he's a right back and we've got 2. Anyone seen much of him play? Could he play centre back? Is this all agent talk, and we're not actually interested? Kevslug.

We only have one fit right back. Lustig who I think is not good enough requires hip surgery, so another right back would be cover for Mathews. He's only 23 and could be a good prospect.

Kevslug wit a brill monica pal!
here dae ye take agis tae get tae the bog,here kevo ye dont wurk fur duff n duffur dae ye?

Dont think we need another Rb tbh, Matthews has made the position his own and we have a very good stand by in lustig when he gets fit again.Probably just paper talk.
Conor67

Can only find comment from his agent linking him to us and the 'number of clubs' are supposed to be liked also.
All that and the fact that it's been reported by the Daily Rectum should have the alarm bells ringing mate.
I mean when was the last time they got anything right, period! ;o)

Haha no I don't work for Dumb and Dumber - I wish I did because I'd probably be able to afford more than Aldi lager until pay day. Name happened because Kev appears to be a common name amongst us lot and there's an old American punk band called Kilslug that I've obsessed over for a few years. Speaking of Holmes, I suppose if we need cover he might be worth a punt, I wasn't aware of how serious Lustig's injury was, but I wouldn't write him off all together - had a good game against England.

Ed few weeks there was a question on our site about the players to play in champions league finals with 3 different teams. could you please have the answer again. love the work you doing keep it up. Hail hail

{Ed007's Note - It was 2 different teams I think (and didn't include any Chel$ki players) .... Sorry for the cut and paste from my notes:

CL winners with 2 different clubs:

Seedorf, Ajax, Madrid, Milan
Paulo Sousa, Dortmun, Juventus
Panucci, Milan, Madrid
Hargreaves, Bayern, Manchester United
Van Der Sar, Ajax, Manchester United
Et'o, Barcelona, Inter
Redondo, Madrid, Milan
Desailly, Marseille, Milan
Deschamps, Marseille, Juventus
Gerard Piqué, Manchester United, Barcelona.
Deco, Barcelona, Porto.

Pique didn't win it with man utd he was in barca team the time they played them am sure

What about dechamp? was he not a winner of the cl with a couple of clubs or was that just world cup winner and euro winner with France?
