Problem is, who with any authority is going to ask them? These dicks are a law unto themselves. Unless UEFA step in, it'll be middle fingers up to the common herd.Quote:

His sock puppets have good names - there's a TicToc (brings back fond memories of the Jambo meltdown mega thread) and, from this season, a 'scoosh' (sp, but still)
Ah, the fabulous Kirsty McColl - taken far too early.Quote:

He said he was going to pack it in then changed his mind the next day. Guy is completely off the reservation. Claims to have received an 'osman' letter and that the police have informed his parents (?) about credible threats to his life. Do we assume he still lives at home then?Quote:

A total loser who seems to be a bit ill. Not even worth reading for the comedy value any more - it's the same crap day after day.
thecelticblog is probably the best of a bad bunch now.
Didn't he try to change his birthday to the day between the 11th and 13th of July?Quote:

Much as I dislike the Ibrox lot, I've always had the feeling that their tax shenanigans (and look at the consequences) were just the tip of the iceberg.Quote:

Murray says he had seen proof of funds from Whyte's solicitors and "everything seemed fine "
Court now being shown email from Gary Withey to Murray's lawyer Oct 2010. Says "up to £33m of funding" available for the acquisition.
So one set of tax evading law breaking, creditor bumping chancers handed the club over to a different set of villains thus ensuring continuity.Quote:

court rises for a break. More like a piss-take.
Absolutely, if they open investigation again the the Sevconians are going to engage in whataboutery. That's what we should hope for.Quote:

Get used to it, you might end up sharing a cell :greengrin
Document says Whyte has mentioned to Sir David Murray that a third party fund would be providing "a significant chunk of the financing"
Murray says he has no recollection of conversation
Court now being shown Share Purchase Agreement between Murray International, Wavetower ltd and Liberty Capital
