Boab 73 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Are they still involved? I was told today - albeit by a Celtic fan - that they are and Brian Stockbridge are connected? Forgive me for maybe talking shite but just putting it out there, no one talks of them anymore and I recall ticketus saying they'd be involved/get their money in any Rangers arrangement.

Blue Forever 179 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 IIRC, Ahmad and Stockbridge have connections via Allenby Capital (where they used to work) to Octopus Investments, who own Ticketus (I think).Not sure if it's anything to worry about though.

DarcheVinny 1,003 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Allenby Capital (owned by Imran Ahmad and former employer of Brian Stockbridge), have a healthy business history with Octopus Investments, who own Ticketus. As do Zeus Capital. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

glesgabear81 24 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 The Ticketus deal was with the oldco but so was the JJB deal, why did that carry over and not (thankfully) Ticketus? Was there talk that they would go after whyte for the money? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMac 1,405 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 They just can't stop thinking about us! And you just know that they'll be lurking, dying to answer the question for us.

Bear78 96 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Brown's theories growing popular with tims was not convinced by Brown, so would be daft to accept any of it from them, will take word for it with more ease this time Just as well as I nearly ended up a basket case because of this stuff the last time Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brightside 41 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 As previous posters have said, I think that ticketus are just another creditor for oldco & have no claim for anything to do with the club as it now stands. I'm pretty sure that they are perusing whyte (wee fucker that he is) for their cash. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WATP-FOREVER 5,231 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 The last I heard of Ticketus, they were boycotting outside Ibrox, & they'd changed their name to Picketus. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatNightInFlorence 696 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 I never understood why people thought Ticketus would still be involved. Like HMRC and the other creditors all that debt was wiped out having been liquidated so it would be foolish for Green to have got involved with them when they are due nothing from us. Ticketus are just another company who Mr Whyte shafted! We can only hope he gets his one day! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Rd 2,860 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 They are still there............ why would a company who lost what was it £25m........... walk away!! They could have bought us at 5.5m and made their money back, Why Not! Ticketus are still there tho it is going to take them years to make their money back.
