  1. Thankfully there are those of us, who are more than delighted to have a won the title, despite the odds turning against us at times. Hopefully if the new regime is true to their word about committment, we can only soar higher and higher with the odds being more favourable towards us. http://www.123video.nl/playvideos.asp?MovieID=149459
  2. Shome mishtake shurely....offshore is a better place...
  3. There is also further legislation forced on TOP by the ECC, for the protection of minority shareholders, but I am sure you are already aware of that. Unfortunately a bus appears to have been driven through that also, but as everything involved with TOP nothing really surprises, just ask former Cadbury workers.
  4. I could but I won't, don't want you accusing some tit of leading you astray, if you look under the 35 relevant references to dispensations in rule 9, which you have, you can apply your reading to it, apparently everyone else does.
  5. It is apparently a bit more complicated than 85% having more power than 15%, it appears The Takeover Panel may have misinterpreted their own rules, not unknown in the City. http://www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/code.pdf
  6. Nice to hear a voice of reason casey, the reason I brought the shares up, is that I am aware that a newspaper is asking questions about it, as to why shares deemed worthless were accredited as such, when the market shows them to have a value at circa £6 mill in total, being the remaining 15%, still trading at 30p-35p.

  7. Wasn't it you who was never going to post again...after spitting the dummy, such a thin skin to be heaping opprobrium.
  8. If you have to have the significance of 16th May and 6th June in relation to the TOP agreement in not requiring whyte to have to bid for or offer for all shares, as the agreement to announce on 16th May rendered them virtually worthless due to a certain £1 deal.....I will leave you to it. The strangest thing is that the shares have continued to trade at 30p-35p, surely a bit more than worthless
  9. Do you know it is traditional for men of honour to fall on their sword, perhaps not...
  10. No arguement there casey, we were also assured that on 16th May 2011 the future would be shown to us, there is of course always June 6th to look forward to.
  11. An example of why the Scottish sporting press are treated with contempt by fans, and justifiably so, I would suggest that the part in bold is something we are entitled to an idea of. Also we are well aware of the stooshie caused by the uncertainty of an existing obligation via wavetower who have waved goodbye. Glenn Gibbons: Mistake to taunt Whyte over Ibrox credentials Published Date: 28 May 2011 By Glenn Gibbons Nobody who has paid any attention to Rangers' off-field affairs over the past five years could possibly have concluded that the recent purchase by Craig Whyte would bring an abrupt end to the Ibrox club's capacity for newsworthiness. Momentous events such as the transfer of ownership of a high-profile organisation almost invariably leave too many questions unanswered and too many issues unresolved to preclude the likelihood of continuing uncertainty. What is unusual about Whyt e's assumption of control of Rangers is that most of the questions being asked of him - these range from how much money he has and the source of his wealth to the sums he intends to spend on players every year for the foreseeable future - embrace matters that are nobody's business but his. This information would certainly be of interest to Rangers' supporters, particularly those still undecided about the renewal of their season tickets. But it seems inconceivable that Whyte and his lieutenants will not be aware of the need to present a persuasive come-on to potential customers. Whether or not the new hierarchy see the need to sweeten the fans with details of their financial muscle, Whyte is certainly under no obligation to meet the demands of the two directors he sacked, chairman Alastair Johnston and Paul Murray. Johnston's resistance to Whyte's takeover, which seemed to be born at the start and remain quite constant throughout the process, may hint at personal knowledge of the new owner's lack of the capability to "take the club forward", but, if this is the case, he has done a remarkable job of keeping it to himself. Instead, Johnston played the "Rangers-minded" card, suggesting that, unlike himself, Whyte may not be a 24-carat, fully paid-up, card-carrying bluenose. This is a perfectly ludicrous "taunt", since anyone need look only as far back as the previous owner, David Murray, to find a head honcho who was not only not a Rangers supporter, but not even a football fan. Murray's preferred sport was rugby. If Johnston and Murray refused to resign in the hope that their enforced removal would convey Whyte's "ruthlessness" to a sympathetic public, it seemed to backfire. The most striking aspect of the reaction to the "coup" among internet posters has been the near-total absence of support for the ousted pair. Much more intriguing are the suspensions of the chief executive, Martin Bain, and the former company secretary and finance director, Donald McIntyre, pending an internal investigation. But schadenfreude addicts will have to wait for their next fix. Before Whyte himself chooses to make public the outcome of his inquiry or, more probably, relies on his actions for approval or opprobrium, speculation will remain meaningless.
  12. Thank you Booler, I always look forward to your elucidatory input, as for the office bike I really am unable to throw any light on the subject, other than the time you went ower the haunle baurs....
  13. I noticed your taigish blasphemy in your use of the Son of Gods name, not the sort of behaviour one would expect from a staunch Presbyterian...smart and you on the same page surely a mishtake shomewere...
  14. Shouldn't you be trawling your local friendly taig board, as is your normal wont. I have always had suspicions about your six fingers, begone taig collaborator (I would have used Quisling, but I fired that at you yesterday), mind they smokey caunles, dinny set yir arse oan fire..... :lol:
  15. Of course I don't mind my good man, I always find your erudite musings the perfect cure for insomnia You are obviously unaware as to the context of the posed question, but of course that is of no surprise, as an addendum, do you remember the parable of the Loaves and Fishes, I think the people involved with the elastic sided £1 had the same scriptwriter....
  16. The other question is which Mr Whyte do we have, Mr Craig Whyte or Mr Craig Thomas Whyte, and why the distinction you may ask, or perhaps you already know.
  17. All change ! he's no sacked... Donald McIntyre has lost his position as company secretary at Rangers as new owner Craig Whyte continues to overhaul the Ibrox boardroom. Finance director McIntyre remains suspended along with the chief executive Martin Bain pending the outcome of an internal inquiry.
  18. More likely because he would be able to monitor any future financial machinations that there may be , if his services had been retained. Time for Johnston and his fellow signatories to make their disquiet public. We can then decide if there is any credence to their scepticism, or if indeed the new regime is the second coming.
  19. Fuk me! an uber fanny, away an take yir face furra shite ya , the club was in the state it was cos the likes o you accept any shite they threw at you... PS £1 that is a lotta piss....
  20. Get him tae fuk, he's aye singin abbot a green door... :lol:
