gunslinger 270 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 But we would have been paying for it, we don't know that's the case with Ng or Millerno not yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack1690 793 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I'm totally confused now.I thought that the administrators priority was, firstly to the company and then the creditors.Have they just said "Whoever gives us £500,000 will be preferred bidder"?Surely not Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunslinger 270 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 not really they picked the best bid tbk then asked for 500k. now tbk are gone they will pick the next best and repeat. tbk can still buy us just not for 2 weeks.

The Godfather 71,893 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Do we even know if TBK were the preferred bidder, all we know is they were given the most serious consideration by the the administrators. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunslinger 270 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 given they were negotiating over the clauses in the 500k fee its a fair assumption. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t see D&P saying TBK were the frontrunners unless I have missed that quote. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guardian 4,281 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 seems ng has bettered the the money ticketus are getting instead of 10 million over 10 years its 14 milion over less years. if rangers are still paying the 14 million obviously tbk deal was better for the club. if ng is paying it then he's the man. we will find out which at some point I suppose. hopefully soon.The TBK deal wasn't better for the club if it didn't offer enough for HMRC to grant a CVA.Oddly that isn't mentioned.Isn't it.Now aspersions are being cast that Ng won't be spending his own money. That wasn't a problem when TBK were front runners.Shifting sands. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Godfather 71,893 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 that's the way it looks.Looks can be deceiving; no one knows what has happened or what offer was/is looking the best bet unless you work for D&P or one of the bidders.All we know is TBK have backed out for the time being leaving 2 bidders left…that’s it.

will_1974 204 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 TBK didn't have the dosh, plain and simple. When TBK needed 500k they went to Ticketus. To rely on Ticketus for finance is a p*ss poor business model and sounds similar to the CW approach.I have backed the Ng bid since Frankie first posted their interest.The deal he has done with Ticketus hopefully removes them from the equation.

BAP1872 138 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 that's the way it looks.I appreciated we all have an opinion on this but you stated to jack1690 that "tbk were the best bid" that's not the case as far as we know, just your opinion.excuse the neg rep mate, rush of blood. thought for a sec that Ng actually was the second best bidEdit: fixed the neg rep Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alnic3856 358 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I don't know enough about any bid to comment and have deliberately remained neutral throughout. What I will say though, if it is true TBK were planning on borrowing 500k from Ticketus just to be able to enter negotiations to buy the club then I am glad they pulled out, I'm wondering who that 500k was gonna be secured against? However just a rumour so as yet I'm still undecided. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunslinger 270 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 so ng has dosh but is going to ticketus and the blue knights had none because they went to ticketus. this will be an interesting 2 weeks. can ng and d & p step up and deliver.

The Godfather 71,893 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 also the admins are disappointed they did. they were haggling over the fee and the bid was strong. we know lots more actually.They were disappointed as 1 of the 3 best bids they choose decided to pull out at this late stage…of course they would be. That does not mean the bid was leading nor does it mean it was lagging behind; you certainly cannot draw conclusions from that can you??Do you know how strong the bid was or how weak the others were/are? Do you know if the other bids were doing the same things regarding the fee? Would all the bidders not be given information about this fee, I can’t see just one being given it at this stage….If you know lots more then why not share it, all I can see on here is presumptions made on what happened yesterday evening.
