"Ticketus are owned by a company called Octopus who are in turn heavily linked with Close Brothers (Octopus own a number of subsidaries for investments and the chairman of Octopus VCT 3 is also a director of Close Brothers). Close Brothers have some kind of formal link with Phil Betts' company, Primary Asset Finance, who in turn have been involved with Craig Whyte and Merchant House in their venture capitalist schemes"

Titsrus must have been in on this, while it might be secured against another company you cant go mortgaging something you dont have. They have been very quiet have they not, trying to avoid the headlines directly. Some one need to look at these guys, there funding and compaies behind them might be interesting. That said few people can unravel Whtyes smoke and mirros at the moment, he certainly give SDM a run for his money but it still remain to be see if he is a financial wizard or crook End of the day we want the club to be on steady grounding and if this means the actions Whyte has taken get us there via CVA then thats where we are. Troubling times indeed troops. More concerning is the divsions in the fans and forums, we need to unite for the good of the club.

So have we heard any comment from titsrus yet apart from " mm, ok we are looking into it??" Do they appear worried about never seeing their cash again? Not so far, so does this make you think they know whats going on? Were they happy to lend to Whyte with security against another of his companies thus if he has not loaned the money to us then its not out concern from a debt viewpoint. Mortaging something your dont own is rather naughty and i am sure must be fraud so why risk your rep on this blatent smoke and mirrors stunt? At end of the day, if we come out with no debt or a very much lower level, new owners and Whyte walking away with a few quid in his pocket for doing what SDM didnt have the balls to do is he a villan or a hero? This game has a long way to play out yet with more twists and turn to come thats for sure.

We need to know that this is not a leverage buyout ala other clubs imho.

clean sweep from top first, Bain should be slung out asap. Nothing more than a yappy lap dog enjoying his role but delivering zero. rest can follow suit. A good time for new board with direction and ambition to drive us forward. End of the day we have been bought to generate money for Whyte, he is not here for the good of his health so nowt wrong if he come out and tells us what his plans are.

Shows the world how feckin thick the MOPE tims are and to be honest the bosses should have told them to fec right off. Everyone i have spoke down here has be of the mind the tims are mentalist and this only helps to enforce the view that they dont live on the same planet as the rest of society. I ams sure many creeds have helped to embrace the spirit and put flags up without feeling oppressed by the national flag of the UK. Pretty sure ou could go round the world and find flags flying in celebration of this wedding. She and her likes are bigots end off.

A wee article in the Huddersfield paper on PA and Erskine appeal. http://www.examiner.co.uk/news/local-west-yorkshire-news/2011/04/26/glasgow-ngers-fans-take-sammy-kings-song-penny-arcade-into-charts-86081-28582195/

Did i hear some abuse from the self titled "greatest fans in the world"??

Its fantastic on the TV, loud and proud made the hair on my neck standup watching it again. No doubt the media will be offended by a team singing a classic song while waving the national flag. You cant win with the scummy media. WRTP.

Looks the biz indeed, must have game of this year, cant wait till November. Online will be great no doubt.

Yes, great game and online play is the best around. No cheating or mucking around like COD et al. Well worth spending on The new BattleField is coming in November, its not a BC job but looks fantastic and should be right up there.

If anything, he need to work a little on his kicks which at times are not as effective as they could be.

Shagger is top drawer and when anyone that wants to commit to us for 4 years makes it even better. He has once again show his class in making two key saves, which can be added to his list this season that has actully kept us in touch with the unwashed. If he is on long term contract it also mean he cant depart on the cheap if we get some offers, of which i think there will be in Summer

He should have been hooked at Half Time, was missing in action once more and has no confidence.

Hello Hello, Well said Walter, he should have went further and slated Lennon for his disgraceful antics this year. The whole season has been tainted by Lennon and his side show players. As Walter said they have tried to dictate to Uefa, SPL, SFA and the refs to their own ends. All the hassle has come from one person this year and you reap what you sow. It will be sicking to see them win the title( i think its a up hill struggle for us now. The United games has struck a blow to our challenge)
