I would hope they would at worst make a payment to charity or scottish football or some of the firms bumped by Rangers. (Even of the tax NI which would have been due)Quote:

From the liquidators' point of view, though, I don't see them as being assets of RFC
Never understood why Rangers weren't forced to sell off Ibrox and Murray Park.Quote:

Just a thought, probably way off the mark but, £17m of investment could be a Romanov-esque debt for equity deal so that Ticketus own £17m worth of shares. The fans buy £10m worth of shares, raises a bit of capital, enabling the new Rangers to pay off the balance of the debt they don't owe to Ticketus.
Like I say, just a thought, I mean it would be silly to think that new Rangers would be paying off debts from the old Rangers, wouldn't it.:rolleyes:
It's a bit like instead of the club being worth nothing and £50m in debt, now they're worth £50m with no debt!? I think.
They did.. to CG for what, £5.5m? Why no-one challenged this tiny price tag is way beyond me. Sort of property should be worth in £20m plus I would of thought :confused:Quote:

Or do these, 'Trusts', sit outside the laws which apply to normal people?
If they were loans then when are they due to be paid back? It is all so vague and obtuse, yet the MSM, as usual, refrain from asking the awkward questions.
If they were loans then they should be paid back to the Trust who should then pay the money back to Oldco, for the benefit of the creditors.
What is so difficult about that?
:confused:
... because they weren't loans from RFC. They were contributions to the Trust; payments for services, in the same way as paying the phone bill would be.Quote:

Ibrox is worthless unless used as a football stadium. Murray Park was transferred to some other company before the s--- hit the fan.Quote:

This sale is Vlad's only way of getting out of Hearts without losing all of the £24m of debt (last accounts but probably more now).
It was actually £2.3m for Ibrox, the Car Park and the Training ground. The rest was for player registrations and any other assets.Quote:

HMRC have no powers to do so. Indeed, that would have been discriminatory against all other creditors.Quote:

We don't know whether it has been challenged. BDO will be working away and, if they think it appropriate, they will challenge it.Quote:

Noticed that Rangers released a statement today saying that any proceeds they do get from the Dundee Utd cup tie will be donated to charity.
http://rangers.co.uk/news/headlines/...-cup-statement
CHARLES GREEN and the Board of Rangers Football Club has noted speculation regarding possible outcomes of gate distribution as a result of Rangers' decision not to take tickets for the Scottish Cup match against Dundee United at Tannadice.
The chief executive said: “The Club was contacted by Dundee United requesting us to waive our rights to the share of the gate under Cup Competition Rule 46(c), this was declined.
"It has been decided by the board that any proceeds from gate receipts due to the Club will be donated to the Prince and Princess of Wales Hospice Brick by Brick Appeal and Erskine charities via the Rangers Charity Foundation.”
That's The Rangers, always keen to do the morally upstanding thing. :fibber:Quote:

The Rangers have no history. Fact :agree:Quote:

Now if the SFA instruct United to pay the money due out of Ranger's share of the gate, Green will scream long and loud about depriving Charities.
If they get through they should be kicked out of the competition, if they get beat they should be banned from next years.
I wonder what Green's plans are in event of a Draw and replay. Will they boycott this game too ? :confused:
For Green Ginger. Yes about £35k for cup game
Daily record had a big pullout today ,celebrating 140 years of rangers.i thought they died before their 140th year,whts that about or am i wrong:confused:

Who cares about logic when there's print to sell.
Obviously the Record has conveniently overlooked the fact that Oldco was liquidated, and a Newco was set up.........Totally expected from that weegie rag, massaging the hordes of huns...........Quote:

They just say "Rangers" for short...
140 days surely?
They also had an 8 page pullout on Celtic yesterday so the natural balance must be restored. 8 pages for the smellies so there has to be 8 pages for SevCo. What one gets the other has to have as well. They pander to both sets of bigots.
A lie's a lie for a' that.Quote:
