Johnson 27 Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 What the document appears to imply is that Whyte has raised around £50million by taking out a mortgage on 100,000 season tickets over the next four years.The company involved is almost certainly Ticketus LLP. In my opinion, this is NOT good news. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnson 27 Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 It's discharged the season tickets from the charge so they can be pledged elsewhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ogbg 20 Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 What the document appears to say, and it was filed AFTER we were bought, is that Lloyds(formerly BOS) still have some sort of claim against Rangers FC.So is the "chargee" the one who is owed? I had understood the form differently (i.e. that the chargee is the one who owes, and hence BOS is listed because that is the company bank account). Also, see when you say that it appears to show they still have some sort of claim, is that because of this part: "excluding the Release Assests" (i.e. the charge is lifted over all assets except the "Release Assets", which contain tickets, etc.)?EDIT: Also, where is everyone getting the 4 year figure from? I don't see anything about 4 years on the document. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RM Monitor And Standards Officer 112,897 Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Find it strange as to why some on here seem so obsessed that Whyte is at it/bad for us. They seem to take great joy from this sort of shit aswell Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see anything about 4 years on the document.The Chargee is who has the security, ie BOS. And yes according to that form, they have released part of the charge, the part being all company assets EXCEPT these season tickets.As for the 4 years, they are listed on the document.2011/12 - 23k books2012/13 - 27k books2013/14 - 27k books2014/15 - 23k books Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, is he not one of our directors now, and is that box not for the one who is owed to sign? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its even worse for people like me who dont understand business dealings, so i tend to look at what yourself, BD, Frankie and Boss are saying about it.I gathered this shite was released by beggars but there is one poster on here who seems to be desperate for this to be true. Every thing he has ever posted has came from some fenian site. I think we all have concerns but some who post on here are obsessed and every thread they start is a dig at CW!

Guardian 4,281 Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 I'm pretty certain no matter what Mr Whyte releases and what questions are answered, the usual suspects will just spin it with "aye but--------"If he announced he was backing the team with £20m a year, out his own pocket and showed bank statements to prove he had it, they'd say he was just another Murray and we were doomed.If he doesn't announce much they'll say he's hiding something, it doesn't add up, and something about pots and pissing.Let's see how it pans out and feck the doomsayers and timposters.I see us being Champions is still hurting.

gunslinger 270 Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 so let me sum this up in laymans terms. rangers used to have season book money used as collateral against our loans with lloyds. some of that has been released most likley because the loan is repaid. securities are still in place to cover overdrafts etc. this is standard business practice. yahoos are still desperate.

I'm still awaiting him doing that but hope we'll have something to go on later today from PLUS. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
