The players money demands are driving Rangers into liquidation.... nice!

Nonsense - the mismanagement of the club and the lies are what is driving it towards liquidation. Personally, if I were asked to work for the rest of the year on a drastically reduced salary, when my agent was being courted by other clubs, I say fvck off to the administrators too.They are standing up for what they were promised and I fully support their decision (if it fvcks the club up further).

Just for the record they will only defer for 3 months then they want paying up in full after that period, in addition they will not accept any redundancies.

I agree in a selfish i'm a rich sought after football attitude with some jumped up agent whispering in your ear then the attitude from the players is highly predictable.

However will they really want the death of a Scottish football institution blamed on them?

Personally I couldn't care less!

Why would it be blamed upon them - they didn't create this situation. Why are you surprised that players don't bleed the colours of the club they play for? There is only one person to blame for this situation.

There are many people to blame over a 20 year period.

The players will be blamed for liquidation because they wont yield, the administration is another matter.

Yep - nothing but blame being heaped upon the players here.

Maybe you blame them Mack but weren't you the person who skipped across the pitch to throw his season ticket limply at Mandaric? I'm not sure I trust your perceptions.

Breaking news on BBC website, Rangers will not be able to compete in European football next season.

So that's their annual humiliation to eleven Faroese fishermen out of the way then. :whistle:

Yeah. Rangers get humiliated by Slovenians, not Faeroe Islanders.

From what I gathered yesterday, albeit in passing, their place will simply go to another Scottish league place.

This looks like it could be the end, with the administrators threatening to start selling assets immediately. Though, of course, it could just be a rouse to drag investors out the woodwork faster.

They haven't competed in it for years.

Whilst true, I'm sure that's not the only criteria to determine Scottishness.

Rangers players agree wage cut deal to save the club

By Alasdair Lamont and Clive LindsayBBC Scotland

BBC Scotland has learned a broad wage cut agreement with Rangers players has been agreed to keep redundancies down.

Steven Whittaker and Steven Naismith have already struck deals to take a 75% wage cut.

It is being suggested that they made the decision to help administrator Duff and Phelps avoid major redundancies at the Scottish champions.

The administrator had delayed until Friday an announcement on job cuts in order to agree a deal with the squad.

Joint administrator Paul Clark said on Thursday that he was confident a deal would be reached.

He thought it would thereby justify the time it has taken to impose cost-cutting measures.

"We're in the final stages of that process and it's going to deliver very substantial cuts," he told BBC Scotland.

Rangers players will gather at the Murray Park training ground on Friday

"We're looking to deliver cost-cutting of around £1m per month and that's something I think we will have achieved by this weekend."

On Tuesday night David Whitehouse - Clark's fellow administrator - said a failure to agree to certain clauses with players' advisers had blocked the deal.

However, Clark said: "We will vary certain contracts such that there will be trigger points at which they can move.

"I don't think that should be considered that any or all of the players are considering that they want to leave the club in the summer.

"It's just a safety mechanism from their point of view, in exchange for the very substantial amounts they're giving up, to give them some flexibility depending on what the new ownership structure looks like when the club comes out of administration.

"I can understand the players' concern, but I don't think the fans should assume that means a bunch of the players are going to go in the summer or, indeed, at any point in the future for little or no value."

Captain Steven Davis and Scotland internationals Whittaker and Naismith were locked in negotiations on Tuesday night when it emerged that seven or eight players had not yet agreed to the proposed cuts in salaries.

The BBC had learned that the club's biggest stars were being asked to take wage cuts of 75%, middle earners 50% and the lower paid members of the squad 25%.

Wingers Mervan Celik and Gregg Wylde this week had offers to leave the club accepted, while Australia midfielder Matt McKay arranged a move to South Korean club Busan I'Park earlier in the administration process.

Meanwhile, uefa events chief executive David Taylor says Rangers will have to meet the 31 March cut-off for securing a licence to take part in European competition next season.

Rangers' administrator has admitted there was "no realistic prospect" of the club meeting the deadline but hoped to appeal to the Scottish Football Association, which uses Uefa rules to determine whether licences are issued.

However, former SFA chief executive Taylor said: "They have to make the deadline. There will be no extensions.

"It's a great shame that such a major football club and a major Scottish institution is in such disarray at the moment.

"A club that has that massive level of support shouldn't be in the financial position that it's in just now."
