20p per share may be last exit chance on Rangers Mark II

364

There was never any doubt that Honest Dave King would be ordered to make an £11m offer to minority shareholders in Newco Rangers after an enforcement today by the Takeover Appeals Board.

King’s counsel claimed he was “penniless” and unable to make good on the offer, which is a legal requirement on any individual or individuals acting in concert, acquire 30% of a company. I initially considered it was unlikely that many shareholders would accept the 20p price, but the Sinking Ship Scenario is in play. This may be shareholders last chance to recover any investment in Rangers Mark II.

Of course, none of this would have happened if they stuck with the Easdales and Mike Ashley, or Charles Green and Mike Ashley, of anyone else who was able to employ a Nomad or attract tens of millions of pounds investment.  But glib and shameless Geppetto wanted control and he pulled all the right strings.

Have a great weekend and enjoy the game tomorrow.

    See when we’re 4 up next week after half an hour, should we sing

     

     

     

    “Graeme Murtry, he’s one of our own!” ? Or would that be sectarian?

     

     

    We can’t be doing that as Gary Ralston from the DR would class it as ‘gloating’, he started a campaign this season to reduce our allocation for Poundland

    You know I’m sitting here thinking Charlie Nicholas style and it just dawned on me.

     

     

     

     

    You know back in the Craig Whyte days I betcha the SFA SPL SPLF SPFL PFJ JPF Celtic rangers were awe in cahoots on some kind of business continuity plan based on bigotry and blind faith.

     

     

     

     

    I think we should table an emotion at the next AGM.

     

     

     

     

    See what number we get.

     

    ==============================

     

    It all began in October 2011… in terms of CW’s tenure

    Celtic would not have been involved providing plausible deniability.

  4. *** LAST MAN STANDING 9 – WILL IT EVER END??? ***

     

    Good evening, friends.

     

    For those of you that are still following the longest running Last Man Standing competition in history we have reached Week 13 with 3 men still standing. This weekend there are 2 games that matter in the context of the competition, HIBS v Ross County and MOTHERWELL v Dundee.

     

    Paddy McCourt CSC has gone with Hibs whilst both stpatricksbhoy and LiamInToronto are relying on Motherwell.

     

    If we don’t have a winner after tomorrow’s games then we will have a midweek card for Round 14. After that, The Committee are then going to have to come up with a way of making sure there’s a winner for the final weekend fixtures of 2017!

     

    Good luck to the 3 remaining stauners.

  5. I’m very concerned about our new signing Marvin. He’s far too intelligent and good looking to be a proper big durty centre half.

  6. Wow ! Reporting Scotland gave the Court of Session ruling on Dave King the prominence it deserves then followed this with reasonable reporting.

     

    Astounded of ForeheadCSC

     

     

    Cheerio for now.

    Would that be like that old song “roaming in the gloating” by any chance?

     

    If so I’m all for it! Of course with updated acceptable lyrics, we could replace “King Billy” with Kim Jong Un and “John Knox” with Donald Trump or some other really bad guy like Nigel Farage!

  8. Genuinely concerned here ghuys ….my nephew has a season ticket ( Adult Season ticket) but cant go to the game tomorrow and he has given it to me to use tomorrow . I have been reading some of the stories about this carry on , on here . Also heard from a friend that her nephew got stopped when he got into Celtic Park using his dads season ticket during the week and the ticket was confiscated . The dad is now in a panic because the sevco game is looming and he is desperate to be there. I dont want him to miss out on the sevco game next week by knackering things up for him. Are they stopping people randomly going through the turnstyles ?

  9. Celtarella.

     

     

    Having played a part in ensuring no parachute into the SPL I think Celtic left a solution up to the SPL and SFA.

     

     

    If (and it’s a big if), if Green was the only show in town and would have walked away if the transfer of the SFA Membership was not allowed and Sevco been forced to take the same route any new club would, then I cannot see Celtic digging in their heels if all other clubs were ok with the transfer of membership.

     

     

    Problem of course is we don’t know who agreed what with whom and we will all project our own beliefs on to the blank canvas.

  10. Fairhill bhoy

     

     

    yes but just about to introduce myself to some chilled cider and catch up on peaky blinders

  11. Who gives a flying feck about Sevco? What will be will be. Too much timternet space given to the coverage of a new entity masquerading as tax dodging deceased entity. Seriously I am more concerned with our sorting out our defensive fragilities and beating our nearest rivals – The Dons.

    You need to stop getting yourself bogged down in Celtic semen tactics.

     

    ===================

     

    You asked a question and I gave an answer based on my own research, into the 5 Way that does not have Celtic as a signatory and my own ability to think for myself free as far as possible from preconceived notions of a religious fervour.

  13. Since res 12 was tabled at the 2013 AGM we have had

     

    (among other less important events):

     

     

    The North Pole melted

     

    Brexit

     

    Nelson Mandela died

     

    ISIS came and went

     

    Ebola came and went

     

    Malaysian airlines came and went and one of their planes still lying at the bottom of the southern Indian ocean

     

    Israel’s genocide against Palestinians is in its final stages

     

    There’s been a few Olympics

     

    Facebook bought WhatsApp

     

    Russia annexed Crimea

     

    All acts of congress passed by Obama have since been rescinded by Trump.

     

    Lord Livingston of Parkhead got on a different gravy train

     

    etc etc etc

     

    you get the picture

     

    but when it comes to Celtic supporters concerns, the Celtic PLC have only our best interests at heart( as well as furnishing your info to the police).

    Graeme Murty: Rangers appoint interim boss as manager for rest of season

  17. Celtarella on 22nd December 2017 7:47 pm

     

     

    Since 2013 the SFA and SPL/SPFL , supported by large sections of the media, who depend on the game for a living, closed ranks.

     

     

    It is a miracle the issue is still a live one.

     

     

    They closed ranks because the are interdependent, which means you cannot harm one without doing some damage to all.

     

     

    Everything that has happened since Oct 2011, when McKenzie was first appraised of the situation is governed by that factor.

     

     

    It has been an exercise in damage limitation that depends on closed ranks and reality not asserting itself as it will over time. That is what makes reality real – it lasts.

  18. Ok now that we know D.D. is fine (thanks Almore)

     

    What about Big Jimmy?

     

    Last we heard he was struggling with a virus.

     

    Hopefully you have recovered Big chap.
