Generic Sevco / Rangers meltdown thread

No comprende

I was suggesting that , on past form, the only way they could get £5m worth of defenders would be to pay £20m.

Where are they Ggttin the funds to pay fir all these transfers ?.....even if it’s signing on fees and wages only. I thought they were skint.

I’d like to think that the SPFL and or the SFA would be monitoring them closely in case of any shenanigans ......but I keep forgetting the S in both stands for Strathclyde.

Not sure how that relates to newco huns

When a club is allowed to run up horrendous debts to the public purse, which will almost all remain unpaid, and the new guardians of the club seem to want to continue in a similar manner, of course it's of interest.

It's probably more of interest to most Scottish fans than what's going on at PSG, for example.

Not to everyone, of course, but that's a personal choice.

I see the Takeover Panel have been in court today looking to start bringing Dave King to book for his failure to comply with the ToP ruling.

Here's hoping they score early, let King back in by halftime, allow a Halliday to seemingly nudge the Gers in front, only for a couple of late (but decisive) moments to go the way of the Takeover Panel.

Well that’s a good number of minutes I’ll never get back!! So basically the lying king has pissed them about a lot and now they’ve had enough and the lying king is in contempt of court? So if he’s in contempt of court and not carrying out the panels instructions he will now be cold shouldered? Is that correct? If so, what implications does it have on the huns and for the SPFL?

From that, it looks like they went to court to stop him producing an offer document. Which prob explains why the share offer they talked about a couple of months back never happened.

Clearly they explain to him what he has to do and when he doesn’t do it they explain it again.Sooner or later he’ll realise he’s not getting his own way.After all it’s not the football authorities he’s dealing with.Obviously the Panel can see he’s a busted flush who can’t get a bank that anyone has heard of to vouch that he’s got money in the UK.

Yeah it was maybe more of a rhetorical musing than a genuine question [emoji23]

With the (admittedly illiquid) shares trading well north of the 20p on paper it appears there would be few takers at 20p.

His shareholder bloc also must hold significant sway so I’m sure would also lean on other shareholders to remain invested.

Sure there will be costs to putting the offer together but it would seem easier to do it then get it out the way rather than spend money prevaricating and fighting the decision.

They also seem at least reasonably adept at raising debt finance through offering share conversions as payment so it wouldn’t seem impossible for them to get some sucker to underwrite the whole shebang either.

Anyhoo something must be stopping him and that something probably stinks so here’s hoping this whole thing ends up horribly for him and his football team.

I may be wrong but if the TOP are now pushing for action and therefore cold shouldering and contempt of court proceedings begin then there is no way they can go ahead with this rights issue.

They were relying on the rights issue to convert debt to equity which would make them FFP compliant. This can now not happen? I’d assume king would have to resign to allow the rights issue?

They were also relying on the rights issue and the club 1872 money to give Gerrard his war chest. Again no rights issue no war chest.

I can’t see how any financial institution will underwrite there prospectus or rights issue-or audit their accounts, whilst King is in charge.

Big changes ahead or Rangers in real trouble.

Any rights issue has the potential to dilute the shares of small shareholders. Exactly the people the takeover panel are trying to protect.

Right questions for us Humans that are totally lost by all this .

If The Rangers are blocked from buying selling shares etc by a cold shoulder, can clubs then still sell players to The Rangers ?

Can the SFA stop then from playing in Europe or points deduct them etc etc, for bringing the game into disrepute?

If the lying King doesn’t have the money for this, can The Rangers FC get rid of him legally or remove his shares so the can start trading again?

Sorry if these have been asked or discussed but I’m curious and have read every thread but honestly still have not got a clue what’s going on.

It only affects Sevco indirectly, so the answer to the first 2 questions is no. They can trade, buy/sell players etc as normal. However, they are propped up by directors' loans, some from King but more by the 3 bears etc. If there is no share issue on the horizon, then there is no avenue for these guys to get their money back. Consequently, they may be more reluctant to put further money in. There are already signs of this. The longer it goes on the more likely they are to end up like the Old Rangers - bust.

They can get rid of him as director/chairman by organising a shareholder vote to oust him.

Beat me to it. The frontrunners are off and away before some teams return to training. "It's good to get off to a decent start" said Mason Oranjeboom the Rangers new Head of Equalities. "These bead rattlers need to be reminded whorapeepul ur" Chairman in Exile DC King is understood to have told the Press - "do not look behind the curtain, ignore that man behind the curtain! They don't know who they are dealing with, trying to undermine me with laws and contracts..."

They can match this deal and Sevco will do better out of it but I can’t see any sportswear chain even bidding in the future knowing that their biggest competitor has the right to see the details of their offer. I wouldn’t be surprised if JD sports withdraw their offer altogether in the next couple of days rather than let Sports Direct see the documents.
If there is no other bid then the terms of the deal revert to the deal Sports direct had last season. Only it’s not for 7 years now, it’s forever.

I've read the Celtic blogs and your comments Ozzy and I don't dispute the knowledge.

I have to ask though is this legal? Can you get someone to sign a contract that is enforceable for the duration of a company's life?

I don’t know. It could be that they have an element of ownership of the brand? I guess all they really have is the right to match other bids but of course other bids are unlikely to come in now that is public knowledge.
It must work in some circumstance like franchise agreements where you agree to pay marketing royalties etc for the life of the company? I’m not sure though. Every day is a school day with this lot.

No, I agree totally. I support Sevco in asking for full transparency. But it has to be full transparency. I want a full review of the running of the game in Scotland because it will never be successful with the current structure.
A smaller country than Scotland just made the semi of the World Cup and smaller clubs than us are outbidding us for players all over Europe.

While I completely agree with your sentiment the problem is they've no intent of full transparency.
They want some of the things that might benefit Celtic exposed so they can drag them back towards the rest of the game.
While that is no bad thing they only want it so that they can get benefits themselves.
No good will ever come from this ****bag of a club.

For me there is no hope of Scottish football reforming as long as people in the governance of the game are saying **** like "We need a healthy Rangers/Celtic in the Scottish game". The health of Rangers and Celtic is a matter entirely for their own boards and club structure. If they get it wrong they can and should fail and, as we've seen other teams will get stronger and fill their place.

The very mindset that allows someone to say we must have a healthy Rangers is all but admitting the game is skewed and they view the OF as the good china you bring out for guests.

What I do not get is why anyone takes these “club” statements seriously. They are released on a website not attributed to anyone at The Rangers Football Club and yet somehow the press and even the SPFL react as if the outbursts have some gravity. I feel they are best ignored unless there is some provenance to the statements. Then of course the club would be open to action for brining the game in to disrepute.
So my message to the SMSM is, by all means report what this website is saying but let’s make it clear that nobody at TRFC is putting their name to it therefore it carries no credibility as a complaint. A judgment could be made as to whether there was any credibility if the statement had a club source.

Self-respecting Rangers fans.

Vatican Rangers supporters club.

Handsome huns.

So fans now sway the decision on whether the club can get out of a contract based on not believing their club get enough. Must be a new tactic. He didn't hit him hard enough your honour in our opinion, he deserves to get off. Ned Law over contract law now 🤣

No orange strips for a while yet?

Thank the lord for that.

If they can't sign an agreement with Hummels what will they be wearing for the European tie? Or have I got this wrong?

Nothing to do with Hummel as far as I know. This is about what retailer can sell the strips

Let’s hope Mike Ashley has got a better legal team this time.

I’m guessing that the fact he pocketed £3m from Der Hun won’t count in his favour.

I’m also guessing that Hummel have already made a load of new replica tops and will be less than pleased at any delay getting them on sale.

The £3m was an out of court settlement because Sevco had defaulted on the last agreement.

Aren’t you a wee bit confused?His legal team has tied Rangers in knots while getting him £3M for nothing.

I was thinking of a previous court battle where his legal team were accused of being ill prepared.

A consequence of holding so many meetings in the pub I guess!

He must be an interesting guy to work for-he certainly rewards loyalty at the top of the tree.

High Command Football side or High Command Boardroom side?

Apparently one of their subs got pelters in the European tie for crossing himself when he came on.

Oh and The Sash got a good airing.

Wonder if Mr Gerrard is having second thoughts.

SG resigning would be just too good to be true. I expect they are directors but one can but hope...... :greengrin

Boardroom upheaval early in his tenure will not do much for Gerrard though.

Gerrard has no road out of Ibrox yet. If he had a soul his stomach would turn. I suspect his wallet controls his conscience. His first and dodgy flirtation with management is going to end in tears. Love it!!!!

At this point though I imagine he has a fair bit stashed away and could afford to take some time out. He will get a job in England easily if he quit at this point - no-one would blame him for leaving that chaotic environment.....

[CyberSauzee]

Are there any directors left to resign? King had screwed over most of them; 2 resigned a few weeks ago to avoid any financial repercusions. Implication is on the football side. DoF I would think.

I'd guess it might be Stewart Robertson , director of TRFC. He's a director of a string of other companies and if the cold shoulder is coming he may feel it best to give up his directorship at Ibrox.

He could still continue in his management roll without being a director.

Very good, but not quite great player and I've got my doubts about the character of the man. It's not as if he needed Sevco's money.

If the Lying King is so skint, wouldn't the simplest solution be to order him to sell his shares (at 20p) and remove him from the board?

I say this because if it was worth his while eventually pleading guilty to 63 tax fraud charges then there must have been quite a lot of money involved before tax. So it can only be a question of time before the legendary, nay mythical warchest is opened and they can finally stop sponging soft loans of any director but dodgy dave and not rely on loan sharks as their lenders of choice[emoji23][emoji23]

I await the outcome of tonight's titanic struggle against these European giants FC Pushover in that Macedonian temple of world football.

Defeat, and loss of European earnings, together with a potless principal, will surely bring grief and no little financial hardship to the mighty the the Rangers.

I'll have to away and lie down, the prospect of Ibrox meltdown is almost too much for me to hope for.

I thought it was quite a good decision tbh. If he does well, then he gets a great role in England. If he does badly, then the well known problems at Greyskull are a great excuse and he will still get a decent job in England.

Can't see him quitting He is in it for the medium term and will use it as a stepping stone to better job back down South
The Rangers also aren't in a position where they can offload him financially in that time frame
He can't do any worse than previous incumbents of the post

He may well be preparing his acolytes for a negative verdict on (?) Friday.

[Pescarese]

Love the bit about not wanting to appoint managers whose experience wasn't good enough. And the bit about the Takeover Panel delaying him from doing what he said he would do. How did the TP do that? All the TP has done is pressure him to stop delaying. No mention of the share issue either, wonder why?

Yes that is my interpretation - timing being the obvious pointer.
