I think they acted as his advisors when he took over Rangers. Maybe have previous with his other companies, too.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Would hope that the SPL would hammer them with another 10 point deduction .. At least ...

Can't see any way Scottish Football could continue if this was the case.
Ridiculous.

PS A 10 point deduction per each unfulfilled fixture could do it. Would expect Strathclyde Loyal Polis to somehow find a way of policing matches if this were the case!

If Rangers were admitted straight back into the SPL it would finish me off for good with Scottish Football.

They were unable to give guarantees that they could fulfill their fixtures, so they were dropped to the bottom division?

They reformed but did not apply for readmission to the SPL.

Sport Minister Shona Robison said Rangers current plight was "a concerning situation for everyone involved in Scottish football".
She said: "Football is our national game and it is now for the administrators to take forward the process of assessing the business and securing an outcome in the best interests of the club, its staff, supporters and the game of football as a whole in Scotland."
...and here was thinking that one of the main roles of the Administrators is actually to try to sort out a fair deal for creditors - including us as taxpayers in this case?

As I said earlier, if CW's advisors in the plan to set the club up for such a move as has now happened are now to act as Administrators to RFC, then they will have been very involved in the deal structure and, presumably, in achieving a structure which served the ambitions of their client in maintaining control over RFC and its assets no matter what! Whether they would be able to manipulate financial elements of the administration which was to the legal detriment of other groups of creditors whose (unsecured) interests must be looked after along with those of the more protected secured creditors such as CW or the lending (to RFC) company by way of a bond and floating charge or some form of fixed security secured over specific property is questionable within the legal constraints that they will be working within I imagine!Last edited by TornadoHibby; 14-02-2012 at 03:10 PM.

How could there be a 10-2 vote or 11-1 vote if Rangers are bust? There would only be 11 teams in the SPL.

On a serious note a lot of people are now going to lose their job over this and I don't mean the highly paid top players. When an administrator goes into a business they quite quickly make people redundant.
Expect youth players and non day to day essential personnel to lose their jobs this week. This is the real tragedy in all this

Rangers will be back to normal in 1-2 years, playing in the same stadium but with all the debt wiped out.

Thats what i was meaning to say, and every media person in the land will be looking in on it. The BRITISH
tax payer wants to see things done right, not everyone in the uk is a hun apologist, they will need to do things by the book, there are a lot of people out there who will try their hardest to make sure thats the case.

And I don't believe they'll have 'learnt thier lesson' either, in 5 years time they'll live outwith thier means, knowing that the consequences aren't all that terrible.
I'd love to be wrong though.
