    Lloyds Bank!

    Well, considering they have just slashed Rangers debt by £7.1 million ... I would assume that my overdraft is to be cleared and that Hibs debt of £3m is to be wiped out???

    Whaddya think?

    I don't think Lloyd's slashed the debt, I think Rangers have paid off some more of the debt.

    But I'm often wrong (except when in conversation with The Miller's Wife).

    I'm with Lloyds aswell. They can feel free to clear a slice of my overdraft any time they like too.

    Shirley Lllloyds will now have to hand over £7.1m to Celtc, otherwise it will be an anti-kafflick conspiracy?

    I heard on the radio this morning (BBC Scotland) that the stumbling block was the amount Craig Whyte was putting up against the debt: £28m v £33m.

    However after reading this you may be correct: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/12887647.stm

    You know, half joking half serious that comment may be, there was serious allegations made to the Police relating to the behavior of some top execs in the Bank of Scotland a few years back when agreeing loan deals with Rangers. Too many of them sitting in the top Ibrox suites and being best pals with Mr Murray.

    Do they mention the bit where they bought trophys with the debt they willingly built up?

    Irrelevant! It wasn't debt it was necessity!

    Brilliant. Let's all promise to move to Lloyds if they shaft the Huns.

    The article only says the debt has been cut , does not actually say that Lloyds have written off the debt. Would be suprised if they agreed to that after all this time with someone onthe board controlling the pennies

    That would appear to correct, It seems strange that there is a plethora of journalists reporting on football and finacial matter yet we struggle to get an in depth report on this.
    There seemed to be an argument over a £1m fee seen by Whyte as an early exit fee on the debt which he didn't want to pay, the bank say the fee exists due to a change in the Libor rate the loans were agreed on.
    Given the debt figure of £27m, expected to be around £19m to £21m now, with the added complication of a reported estimated £30m case by HMR&C the £1m argument pales into insignificance.

    I think that if he was going to invest 10s of millions he should have done industry more stable, perhaps by following in his colleagues flavoured water idea? He should hold his 'hands up' and admit that he isn't 'so fly' after all!!

    Oh aye, you can just imagine all the Huns queuing up to close their accounts.....going to another bank to collect their giro money. I'm sure the staff of lloyds bank will be gutted!!!

    Wouldn't be surprised if lloyds had agreed to write off part of the debt to allow the sale to go through.

    Couple of LTSB guys I know say that internally this is regarded as a "Bank of Scotland legacy thing"! Great institutions stick together?

    Many of the Lloyds guys I know are quite happy to fling ill-informed accusations about Bank of Scotland "things". Lloyds didn't cover themselves in glory in the last few years either though - including having to pay the US authorities several hundred million dollars in fines for repeatedly breaching anti terrorism rules.

    Sorry, should have been clearer, they work for what is now known as LTSB but one of them is from BOS and the other one is an ex halifax guy. The Hun/BOS connection is as old as the hills. Bankers eh

    Exactly.
    The Huns have cut their wage bill and their run in the cups this season have helped their finances.

    Apologies for the pedantic alert but it's LBG (Lloyds Banking Group)

    Or, at least for as long as big Antonio sees fit....he ain't hanging about in making his mark so far

    You're spot on re the BoS / Greyskull link

    All the "experts" were assuring all and sundry the debt would be down to circa £20M

    Don't really understand it all but I thought the Huns main problem was with HMRC? Even if they only owe Lloyds 20 million do they not owe 30+million in tax etc... or have I got it all wrong.
