  1. It's what we're reduced to.

    I'm not too fussed what they call us, I suffer no offence to the word h** but if we are being hounded and censored left and right, then we are duty bound to ensure the laws are applied consistently.

    It's a can of worms, it's going to end in freedom of speech being made a mockery of.

  2. Who gives a fuck if it's whataboutery, asking if rules and regulations are being applied consistently and fairly, is a valid question in any debate. Asking if there is precedent for apparent regulation violation is also a valid question.

    Just because someone gave this practice a silly name doesn't make it wrong imo.

  3. I found myself agreeing with Murray in a lot of it, he seems adamant his only mistake was selling the club to Whyte and you could tell he still wants the absolute best for Rangers, his comments about how the rest of Scotland would die without us, even the beggars

    Thought he handled himself well enough

    Agreed. On both counts.

    His biggest mistake was Whyte imo.

  5. Ebts are or rather were legal. Its the way we used them, discretionary gifts like cars or houses could be gifted through them, not a problem.

    Apparently hmrc are in possession of emails between the club and players agents which indicate illegal abuse of the scheme. Smoking gun.

  6. They wouldn't be an obstacle anyway as a CVA would be the only way they'd get anything back. (Assuming the ruling went in their favour)

    Ticketus are in a very weak position here.

    The arse they have made of this deal doesn't fill me with confidence in their abilities.

    There would be little point taking them on just to get a CVA. Thats like going to a loan shark to get an overdue credit card bill paid. Eventually the shark will want paid and you're in a bigger mess.

    Well if ticketus think that they can get more than 10p in the pound through liquidation and sale of assets then presumably they would refuse the proposed cva.

    Having them on board would maybe allow negotiation of the terms of repayment, i.e much longer term than three years, 10,15 maybe 20, who knows?

    These would be questions that TBK's should have to answer.

  7. So why would we want TBK's deal which saddles us with £24m debt plus another £5m for working capital. plus interest ?

    That's before we spend anything on the team.

    Or are they just not doing that ?

    On the 5 live debate last night it was suggested that having ticketus onboard would remove them as an obstacle to a successful cva.

    Which is of course the ideal solution.

  8. What I'm not getting my head around is this, if these potential bidders are making conditional offers i.e looking for clarity on the various tax case liabilities - and at the same time hmrc are only willing to do a deal with the condition that Craig Whyte is no longer in charge, then how do you proceed?

    Catch 22.

  9. Just had a look through today's boxing news.

    Chisora's licence withdrawn indefinitely. :disappointment:

    Rumours that Burns has pulled out of Mitchell negotiations. :disappointment:

    Boxing these days :anguish:

    I am a hardcore fan of boxing and a stout defender of the sport but even I have to admit that this is one of the worst runs of shit for many moons.

    It will recover though, and only needs a few changes to return it to its former glory.

    Those changes don't look like happening anytime soon though. Shame.

  10. I like Groves but if this convenient bad back turns out to be bullshit I will have lost a lot of respect for him. Fans will have bought tickets/hotels/travel for that event. Many will have paid for Boxnation (which is looking threadbare cinco de mayo aside).

    I'd say with 99% certainty that it's definitely bs.
