I think that might be the blow that will end RFC.

One down and one to go!

I wouldn't worry about it. It won't happen.

'Ordinary' (if there's such a thing!) Rangers fans would shi** themselves when thinking about confronting 40 odd thousand Hibs and Hearts fans. The ICF thugs won't give a toss about 'their' club to bother about a protest.

[frazeHFC]

Its all over rangers media and spreading onto social networking sites. We hear of planned protests that never happen but yeah the plan this time is a march to spoil the SFAs 'showpiece'.

One hun: "police wont allow it. nor should we ruin hearts day out at the final." Hunnery love......

[stokesmessiah]

In the Sun, comments accredit to the yank trying to buy RFC..

“I will leave it to Duff & Phelps to determine when they want to identify their preferred bidder.“Until then, I am moving forward.“I will meet Ally McCoist to discuss his recommendations regarding players at the club.”

Is he for real?

Oh Dear

an absolute gem:

"Never walk out on the players during a game. Walk out on them after the game."

I must have been protesting every time I went to a Hibs game then, as I usually walked out after the game!

So they are financially screwed, yet can afford to send coaches to NZ and afford to get two young NZ players over to Glasgow for a trial? Hope they have their return tickets in their hands in case liquidation happens, hate for these poor lads to get stuck in Glasgow! Should they be allowed to entice young players to the club under current circumstances???

Will be ****ing carnage if they do.

" I'm up for going to war right now! Cannot express in work how angry I feel! No ****ing surrender! With a rifle or a pistol in my hand! "


What an utterly horrible establishment.

[rossi]

What are they meant to be protesting against?

[rossi]

Just looked at the Hun forum. I hadn't realised that it was the other scottish clubs fault that they're millions of pounds in debt.

The treatment their club has received.

Ah but according to the media pundits and papers and powers that be, we all need them, don't you see? We'll be in trouble without their cheating, low-life, arrogant, bigoted filth gracing our towns and stadiums week in week out.

Yup...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/17821054

Oh dear, that's the SFA added to their list of "those peepul we'll remember that kicked us while we're down". They really are a naive bunch of weasels. This is just the start. Wait until the sh*t really hits the fans and they go bust

[Beefster]

Does the transfer embargo include extending contracts of over-18 players? Not that I have any idea if any are out of contract this summer so it may not make a difference.

[joe breezy]

Are there any Rangers players that could do us a job?

There may be a few looking for work soon...

[John_the_angus_hibby]

They can sign infer 18s and resign existing players.


Sent from another universe!

Woah, who at Hampden reached down and found a pair tucked away?

So, let me get this straight, surely this 12 month transfer ban totally torpedoes any newco? As Rangers 2012 would need the current clubs license, complete with ban, but would therefore surely be unable to take on any of the current player contracts of anyone over 18, as all the contract contracts would be voided by the liquidation process?

Given this punishment, one can only wonder what would be handed down for the dual contracts scandal if proven.

It would seem their only options now are a newco starting from the bottom of the pile of buying another club. Assuming they find anyone with the cash to actually back up their claims...


Also an interesting test case for the Mad One next time he goes off on one about the SFA...

Independent judicial panel. No SFA officials in sight.

Had there been an SFA official in sight, you can bet your last buck each indictment would have that very Scottish of verdicts'not proven'!

Whyte added: "It's a joke, a complete joke. They've never spoken to me.

"[Chief executive] Stewart Regan and [president] Campbell Ogilvie had dinner with me in November and they told me it wouldn't be a problem"



o dear looks like the boys club had no say this time

[steakbake]

So apparently Whyte got assurances from Regan and Ogilvie over dinner in November that nothing would happen?

Once all this has been sorted out, surely the actions of some of these figures needs to be the subject of an enquiry?

I would say that ownership = control and control must = participation. I wonder if the SFA can enforce their fine given that CW has been banished. It's surely not a legal sanction so I reckon Whyte could just tell them to do one.

Assuming my first sentence is right this makes the administrators job a bit easier in the sense that they now have a solid argument that RFC's shares are worthless in CW's hands Rangers cannot exit administration as a football club as long as CW owns the club. On the other hand the signing embargo in particular means that the value is greatly reduced. I wonder if the fine becomes an administration debt - will the SFA only get keechpence in the pound if a CVA is achieved?

I think I'm with Cav on this one.

CW, with his shareholding, can virtually control anything the club does. He can hire and fire, set company policy, put it into administration......even pick the team
That, to me, is participation.

Accountants ! Pah!

There are ways round everything and I dont think this makes any material difference to CW's position. How many times have you guys, in your combined (many) years, came across a disqualified director who is still running a company with some obscure ******ed relative as the actual MD?

IMO CW is the fall guy who never intended to be there for the long haul anyway. If they can get the CVA approved, which has been the only feasible route mentioned by anyone since day one, his role is complete.

Rats always turn on each other. If he's 'going down', I'm sure he'll be determined to take others with him.
