  1. True, still red brick solid facades are not exactly the height of luxury fashion at the moment
  2. No he's bheast who got his fingers burned and is looking to do some damage limitation on his reputation.
  3. That's a whole other ballgame. Market value is only the price between a willing buyer and able seller agree at arms length. Market price for a listed building football stadium? Unless the listed status can be removed, it's not worth a whole lot really other than to another football team that want to buy it, can't see many of them lining up other than the newco? Murray Park is similar, I believe their are lottery conditions attaching to the development and also restrictions on use of the land. If you can buy the whole club + team for around £12m, I can't see liquidation is going to get anywhere near that, given all the other implication of liquidation.
  4. If true then our media have really fallen in with the dark side. Not much hope for us getting any parity.
  5. Seems a good enough player, lacks a little aggression and a desire to take the game by the horns. Plays well when others are but won't change a game for you. He's had a torrid time with injuries (recurrent theme in our youth players) but seems to be through the other side now.
  6. A TBK liquidation? What do you mean by that.
  7. I'll ignore it too and apologise here, you are a good lad after all
  8. If half of what he writes about Joe O'Rourke is true, why is this cretin still in a job and not in a cell?
  9. So in response, people are in the final stages of this poker game, bluffing, calling and raising to try and get the best deal possible. Whyte wants removal of the personal guarantees Ticketus wants the best deal for its investment TBK want to pay as little as possible After all of that, HMRC wants the most for the taxpayer This has legs to run yet, my worry will be that when Whyte/Ticketus/Buyer finally stop dicking around with trying to secure their own best deal, HMRC will be so fed up they'll scupper the whole deal. Everyone needs to get on the same page and quickly.
  10. Not really. Administration is to repay creditors by raising cash through a CVA, the cash can come from: 1. Investment by the current shareholders (not going to happen) 2. Sale of the business to a 3rd party If 2 doesn't happen (i.e. Whyte blocks it) then you proceed to, 3. Liquidation. A liquidator will be appointed to sell off the assets (probably to a newco but without all the niceties that a CVA would bring) and then the mother of all legal wrangles will ensue. Liquidators have FAR reaching powers and believe me, Whyte would be wary of going down THAT route.
  11. Well I decided to splash out and have a Pret for lunch, other than that it was a usual Monday.
  12. True, but then Ticketus are not part of a CVA, not unless the administrators rip up the deal. The scenarios for Ticketus are 1) Agree a deal with the new owner 2) Take whatever they get from liquidation They have no real say.
  13. The bidders are beginning to cause the club embarrassment with the continual media spoutings but refusing to man up with the money. Tims at my work are having a field day at my expense. We as fans have ABSOLUTELY zero say in the selection of PB, so the bidders should shut up until they are picked and then court us for support. The way TBK have gone about this is cringeworthy, they need to get this sorted and quick before it goes beyond the realms of farcical.
  14. I see Thimson was getting his dodgy penalty practice in this weekend.
  15. Congratulations :clap: , prepare for a life of worry
  16. If the PB isn't announced today, there is going to be a lot of :Broadfoot: going around.
  17. Don't think he's getting much game time while on loan. I usually skim the loan reports on the Rangers App and it doesn't often give much good news =/ I we'll be lucky if we keep Davis, Lafferty, Naismith. All Rangers men, but doubt we can afford their salary post admin. We might be able to afford 1 or 2 senior players, although what are the chances of them staying to play with kids and fight for Top 6? I'll still be there in the stands cheering them on.
  18. Sure you're not sure if it's on at 4, or later, or who's showing it. Useful
  19. Let's hope the fan groups give him some positive if cautious welcome in their responses, because you can be sure many will be working against him in the media.
  20. It appears to be newco to me but without sanctions if he can negotiate it. He doesn't state how this would impact Europe, presumably, the 3 year ban would apply unless we could 'merge' back into the old Corporate shell prior to asking for a licence? Interesting, having worked with Americans for many many years, I can say a lot of people will find it hard having them as owners. American business and football ownership is not a healthy marriage.
  21. Why don't you two cunts take your love-in to personal messages and stop boring the fuck out the rest of us
  22. Would still have made front page news if it was Rangers.
  23. Unfortunately we live in a world where our fans are walking a fine line with trouble from the law over people with mock outrage. There is no argument here, that's just our country's laws. That must apply to everyone, if others seek to extract all humour, they can't then use our club as the outlet for mockery. They shall reap as they sow.
