NaismithLoyal 12 Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 CRAIG WHYTE has responded to claims made tonight by the BBC.A spokesman for Craig Whyte said: "This is clearly a witch-hunt by the BBC."These accusations, which are simply a variation on what the BBC already alleged in a documentary riddled with inaccuracies and falsehoods and broadcast last year, are defamatory and clearly form part of a concerted campaign by the BBC to embarrass Craig Whyte personally and to damage Rangers Football Club. "In specific terms, Mr Whyte totally refutes the scurrilous allegation that he may have committed perjury in a court of law in December last year. The responses he gave to questions relating to matters that took place some 17 years ago were given truthfully and to the best of his recollection."In relation to Re-Tex, Mr Whyte repeats that he was not a director of this company and did not at any time have financial control over the company. His only relationship with the company was either as an investor or as a lender."The further allegation that he was involved in share issue arrangements on behalf of Re-Tex is again both false and defamatory."In the BBC's documentary last year, the accusation was made that Mr Whyte could have been guilty of criminal activity. Yet, neither before nor since the broadcast, has there been any criminal investigation into any aspect of Mr Whyte's business dealings."This renewed attack by the BBC, as with matters that were aired by the BBC last year, are in the hands of Mr Whyte's lawyers and will be contested robustly.""There has been no offer by the BBC to provide any documentary proof in support of their accusations."Mr Whyte is in no doubt that this latest attack is part of a concerted campaign to damage both him and Rangers FC and follows the decision by the club to withdraw co-operation with the corporation. This was as a result of the documentary broadcast last year which also made a series of false and defamatory claims."http://www.rangers.co.uk/news/football-news/article/2602149 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

the goal machine 7,824 Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 The BBC really are determined to cause havoc. The editing of McCoist, the documentary and all these allegations are not the work of an impartial broadcaster. Missed their documentary on the war criminal that was running Celtic.

outlaw69uk 123 Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Nothing whatsoever to do with Rangers.It still doesnt stop us being the target of such things. Much like many can argue that "religion" is nothing to do with Rangers, yet, the support are the main focus of any "religiously aggravated crime", and, unionism isnt "part of Rangers", yet, tie in with the previous, its being used by the SNP very publicaly via the previous item.Regardless of your age, sex, race, religious beliefs (or not), political views, when someone says something derogatory about the support, they mean YOU. Not someone else. "Tarred with the same brush". Still, most are too dumb to realise that Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
