So where is the cash coming from to pay full wages....no players are going to be leaving the huns at the moment it seems.
Who`s paying for this?

I am a little confused. He seems to be suggesting that the licensing rules are being properly applied. However, according to the reports of Hearts AGM, they have been granted their license to play in Europe, despite their not satisfying the requirements.Quote:

Short answer is it's coming from the pot that would otherwise be available to creditors. If they laid players off then the CVA would be able to offer a larger payout to creditors, all other factors being equal. It's basically theft.Quote:

Scottish fitbaw is dying in the dirt, and this tawdry affair is burying it. Get them the hell out, re-jig the leagues to 18 top teams, get prices down, or it's over.. kids already watch Match of the Day, and avoid the Crappenfest that is Sportscene. Re-invent it FAST men in suits, or watch the Rangers turn it to dust

What gets me is the value of the players...this seems to have been excluded from any pot. Surely if they were liquidated
now the players transfer value and the value of the stadium etc would be realised and the monies gained split between all creditors. Why is the club still being run "as normal" and why has the value of the playing squad not been realised? It's clear that there is no real value in the club as a going concern so surely anyone acting on behalf of the creditors should now be setting out to realise the value of ALL assets.
Sure I must have missed something but for D & P to state that the total avail for realising all assets now is only £5.5m must be total balls when you consider possible transfer income alongside the real estate value....
Great post. Spot on!Quote:

i think he is spot on, the Scottish cup is nothing to Rangers they have won it about 4000 times and being out of it for a season or few is not really a punishment, we do that every year
If Rangers carry on it will be the death-knell for sporting integrity (most are agreed on that) and Rangers would do themselves a favour by "doing a Juve" and going down the leagues to wipe the slate clean. Otherwise any victories in future will have a cloud hanging over them, clean or not, because y'know it's Rangers, nudge nudge wink wink.
I'll personally be sickened to see their support pitch up at ER next season. I couldn't watch. Couldn't.
But I don't want to harm my club (who have run the financial affairs in a clean manner).
So here's my plan.
I'll be paying my way in, to give Hibs my money.
I'll go to my seat half an hour before kick off.
I'll lay out a banner saying "NO CHEATS IN OUR GAME"
Then I'll leave before the sectarian singing gets going in the away end.
If all of Scottish football did this you'd have Rangers cancer made plain for all to see.
Playing in 75% empty stadiums, no-one wants to watch them (except the uber-bigots who follow follow)
That would kill their soul, once and for all.
It's all I've got, but it's my plan.
:flag:
In a liquidation there is no value for the players . Their contracts are cancelled.Quote:

Good to be reading stuff like that, particularly after the appalling guff spouted by the Killiemarnock boy a few weeks ago.Quote:

Don't know what or who to believe anymore
Maybe that's part of their masterplan - cause confusion / smoke screens and mirrors / keep the 'enemy' guessing
Wake me up when it's over. :yawn:
BTW, if they get off, there'll be no need to wake me up.

They've lied/spun about other things. Perhaps they also lied when they claimed that they had no idea that going to the CoS would have catastrophic repercussions. Perhaps they want HunFC booted out of Scottish fitba. I wonder if they have a lawyer who believes he can argue that the English leagues would then be obliged to accept them.Quote:
