GeneralCartmanLee 313 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Rangers win (in a sense) and have until 3.30pm to appoint their own Administrators.This is a better outcome than HMRC getting to appoint.Is the difference having your own man in there or is there an actual difference if HMRC had got this decision ?

JM1872 3,714 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 I have had the feeling all day that we need to go into admin today.HMRC are fucking cunts and they are not backing down against us, that has been clear since day one. The fact they aren't backing down against us but gave Vodafone a bill for ยฃ11m in contrast to the ยฃ*billion they owed is despicable, whether it was a slightly different case or not.Makes you wonder if it's taig led or not.However, an hour and 45 mins to appoint an admin otherwise i'd say it was all but over.

It would allow us to protect our own interests in some way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

footygeek301 20 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 It is a bad day for the club, when success is measured by retaining our ability to appoint administrators rather than the court doing this for us.One of the blackest days in the history of our great club, depressing times indeed.

boss 1,941 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Plenty of time, we'll already have one lined up. Craig Whyte gutsy call, is playing out well. It's a small victory for us.Duff & Phelps, as expected. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamFyfe 1,438 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Most likely a lot of shite but I got told that they'd open a transfer window just for Rangers to sell players maybe?

beatler24 2 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Cara Sulieman @carasulieman HMRC initially objected to Duff & Phelps - said there were concerns of "public perception" if they were appointed. Cara Sulieman @carasulieman HMRC will only accept the appointment of administrators if it's done by 3.30pm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Deacon 55,423 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Just a small questionAssuming we get our own administrator appointed today etc can this be challenged by HMRC or is that cut and dry? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next old firm match should be interesting, that is for sure!Its not even about those manky bastards any more, they haven't even begun to realise what this is going to do for Scottish football.No TV deal + shitty Europe chances + loss of revenue from Old Firm games for a team that is already ยฃ8 million in the red from this year alone. They won't even last a couple of years unless they are personally funded by a sugar daddy consistently.Plus, its going to pretty much kill off the SPL as they will easily lose about half their revenues.
