TheBoyDave 123 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Reading through the topics and post on here as per usual and there was a thread were Chick Young was giving his predictions.In this thread he brought up the tax case saying it has not evaporated in to thin air and he does not understand why Rangers are spending money.He also says this is why he feels Celtic will win the title.I do not care that Chick Young thinks Celtic will win the SPL but it got me thinking why are we rejecting offers for Whittaker, Bougherra ect if we are so desperate for money?Why are we signing players on long contracts?Is this so we can top dollar if we sell?or more likely is Craig Whyte confident that the tax case will go in our favour.I know this has been talked about in the past but your thoughts and any info you guys (and girls)know would be good to hear.

JM1872 3,776 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Chick Yeung seemed extremely confident that we are getting hit with a bill. Surely he hasn't been talking to the insider of all Rangers knowledge, Fhil Mhak? The club as a whole are confident of winning the case.

GaryMc 2,398 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 There will be deals put in place that we as fans won't know about if we do lose the case. Whyte would not have bought us if he thought we would lose the tax case and he will also have a back up plan in case we do lose itSelling our best players and assets for pennies right now would make no financial sense.We need to be able to make money on the field by getting into the CL etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLawMan 6,240 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 I reckon we will lose the case. Havent a clue on the amount though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
H72 265 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 :lol:Chick Young knows nothing.I'm pretty sure Whyte knows more than anyone about it. Rangers will win it.But really, we'll be liquidated by Christmas and everyone on this forum will disintegrate by affiliation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps we will and it will just be a fine of a few quid?Cheers,I just think that if it was so clear cut, then the case would have been thrown out already. For it to last into its 6th week, then clearly there is a case against us. Ive dealt with and looked at EBT's before myself and they are a minefield. They are only legal if you operate them legally. The fact we havent yet proved we have lends itself to something being wrong.You are right though, the amount of the fine is unknown and could be two bob and an tangerine.
