    I'd forgotten all about Michael Ball. I wondered why a singer was suing The Rangers.

    Thanks for that.

    If there's fraud, which it seems to be on the face of it, it's the Oldco that committed it. Further, there may be a case against individuals.

    Absolutely it’s the old co. It’s a shame nobody has suggested a full enquiry into everything that went on.

    Yet another statement from the Rangers; this time just to let the world know they haven't started interviews for the manager's job yet, but will get around to it at some point.

    THE Club confirms that since the departure of Pedro Caixinha it has received numerous applications for the now vacant position and is anticipating further applications by the end of next week.

    The Club will then consider all viable options available to it. At this time the Club has not interviewed any candidate and will take its time to ensure that the best possible decision is made.

    That's what I think as well. he has done OK for them since he took charge, which gives them the get out of jail card to the end of the season. Save them admitting they can't actually afford anyone else, just like our neighbours. Quite often the caretaker does OK, is appointed and then it all falls apart - here's hoping

    There is certain to be consequences if the expectation of enforcement to comply materialises. I think CropleyWasGod's suggestion the gasl would depart the scene may be a likely outcome due to the cold shoulder aspect among other things such as being reluctant to producing the amounts of money involved or he may not have the money to hand.

    Not being an expert on company law I'm not sure what would then take place if the gasl fails to comply and departs the scene. It may be a new broom so to speak is sought to clean up the mess the gasl has left behind or even an administration event to cleanse the stink before the city or financial institutions would be able to become involved again. I don't know but its going to be very interesting indeed to see what does occur post enforcement to comply if issued which it should be in my opinion.

    GGTTH
    I don't know if a 'New broom' would make any difference to the city/financial-institutions. Since going into administration, the Hun have had several new owners, pretty much all of the 'Dodgy' category - how many of them have resulted in legal-action - several ??. Basically, they've shown the type of 'Businessman' that they attract to Ibrokes and I think (hope) this will go against them for a long, long time !

    Would certainly think so.

    Its also creating case law as the Takeover Panel have never before as far as I'm aware sought a court of law to enforce its articles. The gasl and his accomplices attempted to virtually openly be dismissive of normal business practice rules. After being caught out doing so the gasl has now pleaded poverty and/or having no control over finances and is perversely in my opinion seeking the COS to overlook the breach of takeover panel rules as a result of his pleading poverty/no control over financial affairs.

    I'm really looking forward to seeing what happens here. If the court does what it should do and orders the gasl to offer all shareholders 20p for each of their shares the fall out could be huge or not but I'm really looking forward to seeing what happens here should the COS reach the correct judgment.

    That's the big 'IF' - after the LNS farce, I've little faith in the Scottish Courts serving-up justice when it comes to those **** !

    Can't disagree with any of this. They do seem to attract the worst type who verge on or are very close to being con-men using whatever means possible.

    Its an an open and shut case in reality and I'm amazed at the length of time is being taken to reach the very simple correct decision of ordering the gasl to comply with the Takeover Panels verdict. There's not much for Lord Bannatyne to consider. The gasl breached the Takeover Panels rules and it should have been an easy and relatively quick decision for Lord Bannatyne to concur with the Takeover Panel. I can't how see how Lord Bannatyne could come to any other judgement than make an order for the gasl to comply. If not it will certainly raise questions over impartiality and open the door for other gasl's to dismiss the Takeover Panel as it would send out the signal that the it cannot enforce its own rules. In my opinion.

    I applied.

    I told them that we are the people, and that I know more about Scottish football than Pedro. I also have a watertight off shore arrangement, so there's a saving to be made there.

    Was wondering why I hadn't got an interview yet, so today's update is reassuring.

    I know for a fact that a Mr Mason Boing applied but as they seem to have completely ignored his return to our traditional values agenda I'm guessing they're going to continue with the modernisation and go for another Kafflik so they have someone to blame for the next mess in 3 months time.

    They must reckon their usual tactic of dropping the name of the guy they want to their media-chums has worked and softened-up Aberdeen enough to the extent they'll let McInnes go for free - not too far-fetched an idea as Milne has history for bending to them !

    There was an unopposed motion granted on Monday in the case The Rangers Football Club Ltd v Charles Green and co. I'm assuming this is the case of negligence raised over the negotiating of deals with Mike Ashley among other things.

    Can't be too long now until Lord Bannatyne issues his interlocutor. Its been over four weeks now since the Takeover Panel case was heard. This isn't a particularly complex case that would warrant months of delay in considering complex legal arguments. Should be issued in the next couple of weeks I'd imagine. It should go against the gasl and I'm looking forward to it.

    Slight change though, someone has just notice the appointed judge, Sarah Wolffe is the wife of the Lord Advocate James Wolffe.

    New judge required.

    If JJ is is accurate in his summation of what occurred then I'd imagine there will be payment agreed upon before any real detail emerges of the background to Caveman Cop wearing an oversize pair of brogues thrashing around and effectively destroying the case among other things .

    The £9m might be a good start in paying BDO, if their case against D&P is successful

    BDO are taking D&P to Court over their handling of the administration. Suing them for £28m.

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotlan...-west-38896812

    The details haven't been published, but I'd presume it's to get D&P to explain why they sold the assets and business of RFC for only £5.5m.

    Right , thanks.

    Suppose they can give an example of BDO selling HOMFC and all their assets for £ 2.5 million.

    On the 14th of February 2012 our proud football club found themselves in a dire situation, we had entered the dreaded administration feared by all connected to Rangers...

    In the following days it became clear that our 140 year history was at serious risk via the potential of liquidation....

    Without immediate help the club were at a far higher risk of going into liquidation. Our one and only goal was the ongoing survival of our beloved club ensuring the 140 year timeline is maintained.
    A flashback to simpler times before "companies that owned clubs" and when liquidations couldn't be survived. The good old days.
