Edmiston Drive 3,846 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I, like many found the Miller statement generated more questions than answers. That said why can't TBK lay out their vision of the way forward as Miller did??Do they have the cash or are they dependent on deals with either Ticketus or Kennedy?How much cash do they have in their consortium without Ticketus.How will they handle wee Shyte?Other than platitudes and media releases I have not found them very forthcoming.Nothing new with that, re more questions than answers in lifeRe minis vision, does he have one?

Frankie 505 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 A cva agreement is for a company to move forward with no debts! What mini is proposing is trying to do a cva and move forward with a £10m debt. Maybe just maybe mini with his link up (and telling the world) has given a position of power to Ticketus that they would not have had otherwise, and actually hampered the administrators position in trying to remove Ticketus.I know if I was in Ticketus place I would have thought .....hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm I have these guys now.I won't pretend to know the business ins and outs so I'll defer to your knowledge on that.IMO, both Ticketus and D&P have over-estimated their position with regard to delivering Whyte. They promised he was irrelevant (and still do) yet we're no closer to a solution.FWIW, I doubt Whyte is asking for £30million but even if he just wants £5m then there is the question of who pays him, whether the fans will accept that and whether he's still involved thereafter.

OlegKuznetsov 10,816 Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 As mentioned elsewhere...........minis view on a cva seems to have a different view as to what a cva is.........whereby a business moves forward with no debt! ............whereas mini will be moving forward with a £10m debt and he has told all and sundry about this. So if I was a creditor then I would be pissed off about this.It's a fair point since Ticketus would be getting approximately 37% of their £27.7m expected return or 41% of the £24m they gave Whyte, depending on how you look at it.That may piss off creditors who get a lower pence in the pound rate, but it does remove their share from a CVA which gives HMRC and others a bigger share than otherwise. Furthermore, it offers a route for the deal to be done if Ticketus can indeed deal with Whyte for the shares. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bailbo 9 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 the big ask here is how the SPL view it Miller is not Liquidating the entire company that is rangers he is only doing the corporate side, he is buying the Goodwill and name and the legal right to trade as rangers, with everything intact, what we need to know is will that be punished for the previous owners sins, it is quite simple Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(or will it be , give us time to do a share issue)How much borrowings, will he bring to his deal? Is the capital going to be borrowed?(if not from share issue)Are we to belive these knights, who offered to pay the non refundable investment of 500k but never paid are going to underwrite a £30 m share issue. So, just say the share issue raises £10m these same knights are going to fork out £20m/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheikh Salim 215 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Spot on. I'm sick of the ups and downs, the hopes raised and hopes dashed... It's easier to just expect the worst and I do. We're finished. Paul Daniels couldn't get us out of this mess. It's the perfect storm, Craig Whyte, Ticketus, the tax issues, players all set to leave... Not forgetting the millions in other debts on that grim list. I don't see how a Newco with a prepacked liquidation can even work never mind a cva.As the saying goes, all of us on here would rather die with our history than live with yours.Easy choice really, world record holders > paedos and terrorists Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gut feeling probably not, it should be part of our punishments but the 3year ban is a different question altogether if the sfa " let us " keep our history.
