I may have missed this on this thread but just read this -

RT - Incredibly, #Rangers may not be in administration after all because of a technicality. Issue to be settled in court on Monday. #RFC

Just heard that on BBC Scotland.

IIRC there was mention on this thread about D&P applying to be ad-mins 2/3 days ago.

It appears the original application hasn't been registered.

Yes I heard about this. Are HMRC not now seeking to impose their own admins, as should have been the case anyway?

CY a 'journalist'? There should be a public enquiry into that.

They might, but would need to prove that D&P are not acting in the best interests of the creditors.

More likely it will be a formality to confirm the appointment. It appears someone forgot to tell the FSA, which they needed to do because the Huns had their own credit card a few years back.

It's so that the company (ie CW and the other shareholders) can't have them removed.

The application is being made by the company (Rangers). As the administrators are agents of the company, appointed by the company previously, they have applied on behalf of the Company for this order.

The effect of it being granted would be that they become administrators under an administration order, rather than by a notice of appointment. One effect of this would be that they could no longer be removed by the company. This is perhaps an indication that Duff & Phelps (D&P) saw potential conflict with the Company in the form of Mr Whyte.

He was company secretary at Rangers as they trod the path towards insolvency. He then moved on to Hearts and was Managing Director as they went in a similar direction, only faster. It matter little if he was directly involved as both happened on his watch.

After that he is rewarded with a post in the SFA charged with investigating such events.

Hunbelievable!

No he's not. He has recused himself from the RFC enquiry.

There isn't one into Hearts yet.

Not sure how that would be done as a number of "non RFC contract" factors relating to any players financial position could influence the amount of income tax paid under PAYE and they could, as a minimum vary from year to year! :wink: :confused:

Just a passing thought! :wink: :greengrin

I understood that Duff and Phelps were seeking to become administrators without the say so of Craig Whyte. This is to cover themselves in the event of (inevitable) conflict with Whyte.

Exactly that. RFC could still, in theory, ask the Court to remove them. This motion, as I understand it, takes RFC out of the chain.

So he knew that it was all a scam and the 'discretionary' aspect was just a heap of s**t.

He rivals Murray in my morality index.

No, he just gets to 'borrow' £250,000 a year from the EBT. Tax free, of course.

It's a clever device that David Murray uses instead of toilet paper.

Walter Smith used to have one as well but he bequeathed it to Ally McCoist.

This clown is not as you describe him!

He is part of the Scottish Football Blazer Brigade that cannot see past RFC as a primary component of everything in Scottish fitba'

The clown needs to be dumped - and soon!:agree:
