Defence is shocking.

Some of these guys will be remembered as legends for the sacrifices they've made, others will plain be forgotten.

I'm sure the Russian, the India, the Arab, the American and the Chinese owners of the big clubs will care. Money and their own success is what drives them, not how British a club outwith their league is.

One of the best right backs in Scotland, if not, THE best right back in Scotland.
Happy new year Tom.

How we are described on google finance.
The Rangers Football Club is a soccer team that competes in the Scotland. Known to supporters as Gers or the Light Blues, the team boasts a record 54 league titles, 33 Scottish Cups, and 27 Scottish League Cups. Rangers Football Club was started in 1873 and plays host at Ibrox Stadium in Glasgow. The club's fierce rivalry with Glasgow neighbours Celtic goes back to 1888 (the two clubs are collectively known as the Old Firm). Most of Rangers Football Club's revenue comes from ticket sales, merchandise, sponsorships, and broadcasting rights fees. Former chairman David Murray, who has interests in mining, property development, and customer call centres, controls nearly the entire company.
It's a bit out of date!

Or a false or malicious statement that is libelous?
Maybe eyes maybe nose?
Ritchie Rich got it in one!

This isn't slander.

but surely posting info retrieved illegally from a government department such as HMRC would be enough to be struck off.
Has this happened before? If there's a case then it can happen again.

Big NO from me. He shirked his duties as a director that got us in the shit.

Pure class.

Take this anyway you like mate but your posts smell of torbettry
you've taken my posts the wrong way then.

Sorry, that should've been an if, not a when.
Were they actually loans? If so they are already making payments?
-
I'm no expert but with this whole issue of EBTs. Isn't one solution to have the people that received them start to pay back monies. If even a tenner a week. Wouldnt that prove they were loans in the first place?
Why would the recipients want to pay it back when they were told it was their salary?
-
Do you believe that there is a possibility a centrally organised and paid for campaign to get journalists to create a negative image of Rangers in the press down south, and if so are they being successful?
No.

Fuck off.
It was an emotional time for all of us. If you are trying to infer Mark Hateley is not a Bear, or does not love Rangers then you're a fucking muppet!
I was half joking, but he inferred newco=newclub.

Print this out and ask him to sign it, Traitor.
"Liquidation of Rangers would wash 140 years of proud tradition away
By Mark Hateley on Mar 30, 12 03:00 PM in rangers
RANGERS going into liquidation is unthinkable. It's as simple as that.
And that's why I was so worried when I saw that dreaded word rear its ugly head again yesterday.
It looks as though Craig Whyte doesn't want to sell his shares to Paul Murray and the Blue Knights consortium. There has even been a suggestion he would rather let the club die.
Hasn't he done enough damage already? If Whyte refuses point blank to sell his shares to Paul then liquidation becomes a genuine fear for the fans again.
For me, it has always been the worst-case scenario since administration engulfed Ibrox.
I'm speaking as a fan and former Rangers player - it can't be allowed to happen. Think of the history that would be lost if the club went bust. That's the thing that disturbs me most.
Rangers have a phenomenal 140-year tradition, with some great players and managers along the way. There have been brilliant times and different generations of supporters can say: "I supported that team." The same as their grandad and great-grandad did.
But that would be broken if liquidation became a reality.
People have so much passion for Rangers and it's a club known around the world. It's important those traditions and values are maintained.
I've heard punters say: "Even if they're liquidated, they'll come back with a new name and the history will still be there." But I don't agree - it just won't be the same Rangers.
A club should be the same from birth. It allows you to keep the same values that Rangers were founded upon.
The Rangers supporters would also never be allowed to forget it by Celtic fans. So I don't even want to think about that particular scenario.
It would be another black mark against the Whyte regime.
The best thing for him to do now, in the best interests of Rangers, would be sell to someone with the club at heart.
At the moment, that person is Paul and the Blue Knights.
The most important thing is to protect the name of Rangers Football Club and ensure the club continues as the same entity.
Unfortunately, the bidders appear to be dropping by the day. But Paul has always been there, constantly saying that his Blue Knights group will do everything in the interests of the club.
That's what everything should be geared towards right now. The administrators must look at a takeover with a business plan in place for the next five years.
What matters is that Rangers operate on an even keel again.
Whyte has always said he is working in the best interests of the club. So why wouldn't he want to sell to Paul when that appears to be his sole aim?
Brian Kennedy has now been ruled out of the running but he has spoken in glowing terms about Paul. Kennedy knows what Paul is all about and what he's trying to achieve at Rangers.
He's backing Paul and obviously believes it would be for the best if the Blue Knights gained control.
The administrators are duty bound to do what is best for the club and the supporters. They are there to find the best buyer.
If the person in question has a personality clash with Whyte - which appears to be the case with Paul - it shouldn't matter. It's not about that any more.
The question the administrators have to ask themselves is: "Who are the best people to take Rangers forward?"
It looks like that would be Paul's Blue Knights group and if he needed any more encouragement to buy the club, surely Sunday's Old Firm win would have done it? It was an incredible atmosphere at Ibrox and Rangers thoroughly deserved their 3-2 victory.
Kyle Lafferty has caused a bit of a stir with his comments about Rangers being better than Celtic and the best in the SPL. And he's right - to a certain extent.
On their day, Rangers are on a level par with Celtic. But what separates them is the size of their squads.
I would suggest that when Rangers get their best team on the pitch it's as good as, if not better, than Celtic's.
The head-to-head record this season would back that theory up.
Of the three Old Firm games so far, Rangers have won two of them at Ibrox quite convincingly.
Celtic won the other one at Parkhead with Joe Ledley's header - but Rangers had a good goal disallowed.
So the starting 11s are evenly matched. But you don't win titles with your best 11 players. You win a championship with the strength of your squad.
And that's why Celtic are way out in front this season. They have a stronger pool of players.
At the start of the season it looked as if Rangers' starting side might be good enough to win the league again but they didn't have the squad to cope with losing key men through injury or, in Nikica Jelavic's case, transfer.
They lost big players at key times. Jelavic was sold in January, Steven Naismith has been injured since October, Lafferty has been out for a long period and Steven Whittaker has missed a lot of games.
You saw it at Dundee United when Dorin Goian and Carlos Bocanegra were suspended. They are quality players and Rangers just can't afford to lose them.
Look at Celtic's squad depth. They have various options at full-back and in central defence. Mark and Kelvin Wilson are struggling to get a game and they have the likes of Cha Du-Ri, Adam Matthews, Thomas Rogne, Charlie Mulgrew, Emilio Izaguirre. The list goes on.
Rangers got their best defence back for the Celtic game and that backline was the most frugal in the SPL earlier this season. When they lost that momentum, with key players out, it all unravelled.
Rangers couldn't cope with the demands of the SPL and that's when Celtic's squad came to the fore. That's why they will be the SPL champions."

Doesn't he deny being one of them?

As most people are wanting to buy shares but aren't bothered about making any money (I.E it's not an investment) - is there not a way fans can just donate any spare cash they have lying about and perhaps get a thank you card or an equivelant from the club similar to a share certificate that is effectively worthless if there's no intention of cashing the shares in in the future?
-
This might be a daft thing to ask but, could they not just transfer the assets back to the oldco?
Green would have to sell the assets to....bdo? Whyte? D+P? Not sure who.

Past experience of CVA's.
I have seen CVA's rejected and then another CVA proposed. All that has happened in this case between the two proposals (were there to be another proposal) is there was a sale of assets.
If you believe otherwise, what is your reason?
I've no reason to believe otherwise as I don't have any CVA experience. Thanks for clearing it up.
-
I'm pretty sure a new CVA could be proposed, up until the company is placed into liquidation.
What are you basing this on? The law or your logic?
