I took and made a few calls after the BBC broke the news about Rangers liquidation. So much to discuss, so many possibilities and so much uncertainty remains. Rangers are gone and whatever you think or hear about a Newco, it will be a shadow of the club Rangers were in the early 80s, never mind today. But still, we have plenty to focus on as we prepare for the enormous events that lie ahead.
I then took a call from my Dad who told me to forget about tomorrow. “This day is about history, about all the events over all the years”. How true.
My friends in Celtic, tonight raise a glass to Celtic fans past, who never lived to see how this Battle of the Ages ended, celebrate for each of them. Celebrate all of those league titles and cups you were denied which were ‘won’ illegally by Rangers over the last 14 years. Celebrate for every hard working man and woman in the country who pays their tax every month, no matter the hardship. This is a victory for all of us. LLLLLLLLLLLiquidation Day is here!
We’ll worry about how other clubs plan to get their hands on your money tomorrow.

also now is the time to go after the cabal that has permitted this scandal to happen
sfa/spl go now
JEEVES! Fetch the lime green jelly from the old picnic hamper there’s a good fellow. Oh, and JEEVES ! two scoops of the old vanilla and be jolly quick about it old chap.
Afternoon bhoys, hot and hun free.
So the big L day is upon us.
Must say I feel underwhelmed, I thought I would be shouting from the rooftops.
The real battle starts now I suppose, the SFA/SPL and their dodgy dealings to allow them back into the SPL.

F*ck it, who wants to go halfers on Kirk Broadfoot?
Chris mcLaughlin BBC “Craig Whyte will give considerably more cash to Ally McCoist for players than first pledged. Source close to the deal tells me.”
Timing CSC
Interestingly, when Rangers went into administration in Feb, I was told that one of the key players ‘was going to jail’.
I think that HMRC may feel the same way

I’d like to raise my glass to my Dad, John.

£2 Million profit a year with no European football?
Charles Green lists savings of £7m on salaries as an advantage of a “newco” exit from administration in a proposal to potential investors in Rangers.
While he has stressed a preference to win creditors’ agreement, he outlines a lesser requirement to keep star players as one positive aspect of a newco.
Green is leading the consortium that is due to take over the club on Thursday.
In the event of a company voluntary arrangement being rejected, Green’s group will progress with newco plans.
Rangers are likely to be precluded from European competition for three years if they are reformed as a new company.
The business model, which describes the non-agreement of a CVA as a “very unlikely event”, also anticipates pre-tax profits of £2m for each of the first three years of a newco.

I take it you got my tweeted technical advice on the server failure?
“The icecreamrociter and jellydrive will need replaced/upgraded. ” :)
We show “L” for Legia Warsaw, you can show “L” to Rangers supporters as the sign of greeting. They will love that new tradition.

Good news 1..
CQN is back.
Good news 2..
The huns aren’t, their still deid.
Paul67 –
You are of course right to highlight that we should focus on this moment and leave tomorrow until….well…tomorrow! However I have been wondering what we Celtic fans need to do to prepare for the New Era as it fast approaches. Not that I want to start up the ole CQN Songs Debate again but we need really need to know what this new football club will actually be called since we might meet them in one of the lower cup competitions. Unless…..
“Oh, the Sevco 588 are….”
Yes to Newco, enter at the bottom of the SFL.
They will eventually be back in the SPL but it will be more than 3Yrs before they rampage through Europe again.

‘The complete definitive history of RFC’
A book waiting to be written.
Synopsis for any would be author:
Happy beginning
Vile middle
Tragic end
In Tenerife,25th wedding anniversary…. in heaven …… bye bye rankers….the joy of…Celtic
hail hail to all
The words ‘No Surrender‘ glowing bright on a ring perched atop a river of burning lava.
“L” for liquidation.
it was my birthday yesterday and i was praying for it to be on that day but im just happy that it has come to pass, no matter how they dress it up new company
means exactly that they are a new company 2012, liquidation is an act of death
and they are dead.

My email to you earlier somewhat overtaken by events but may hint at challenge Newco Huns face going forward?

Would have liked this on my B’day last friday, which didn’t go that well. But……as late pressies, this one cannot be beat.

So, are all the players free to leave now ?
!2th June has always been a significant date for me.
It was at 3:06pm on June 12th 1988 that Ray Houghton put the ball in the England net.
I don’t know what time exactly the plug was pulled on the huns but I will never forget this day.
Ever.
JUNE 12TH 2012
BATTLE OF THE COIN
Every year we should wear our hector masks and hats with matching brief cases and parade throughout the land. God save HMRC!

Afternoon and welcome from a Hun free Glasgow :))
Let me raise a glass to absent family and friends of a Celtic persuasion.Through all your hard work and passion you have gifted me this moment in time to witness their very public and humiliating demise.Here’s to you Dad as always you were right all along.
Does that mean we can get a new shirt sponsor?
Anyone able to share how SKY are reporting this story?
Is Chick Young being supervised? – probably best kept under observation for the next few days..
I know this is probably not one for today.
But certainly one to store in the memory banks.
Alex T tweet that Murray should be worried by HMRC pursuing him and THAT MURRAY’S FATHER HAD SPENT TIME IN JAIL FOR FRAUD.

apologies if this is a widely know fact.

Today my friends take a mental picture of where and who you were with when you heard the news.
I was fortunate to be surrounded by loved ones,but after dancing all round the house and having photos taken(the thats when it happened photos).
Ia tear started to roll down my cheeks ,so I went out the back look skywards and spoke to my da.
My o my how he would have loved this so Da All my uncles and friends (special mention to my uncle Neil & Paul Welsh Toay my friends as I rejoice I also think of yous. HAIL HAIL
Tell all the Huns ye know we have a Club to support and they’ve NO.
Also to all the friends I have made on here but have yet to meet thank you for being you.
140 German Bombers Flying in the Sky…por cierto
and we’re back…….
Paul67 – vindicated at last. Congratulations.
Let’s keep our eye on the ball though chaps. No to newco in the SPL.
No to home gate revenue sharing. Tv money – fair enough.
Surely can’t be long until Our Hero intervenes with a brilliantly timed statement highlighting that its him who owns ibrokes, murray park and the albion car park, and he wants his £30m???
Hey Maw look what we did, God Bless You Aggie… por cierto

‘Well – now it is time to get used to the truth and reality so widely predicted and investigated online and by those notable journalists in broadcasting and papers around Glasgow who bucked the trend. They can all hold their heads high today after all the years of abuse.
The succulent lamb just went off. The stench will hang around Rangers for years to come.’
Agree with Auld NL Heid. New Rangers will not have eveything in place in time for next season, unless the Scottish football authorities decide to slow eveerything down to let them. Then we would have FIFA problems.
