In order to give a fuller picture of what the next few days could hold there is one useful piece of information but first a recap. Back in October I predicted the Cunning Ruse to liquidate Rangers and phoenix as a Newco. Then, when Duff and Phelps first invited offers to purchase Rangers assets we predicted only Craig Whyte’s proxy would be in a position to complete a deal.
Given the situation the proxy will inherit, one final prediction – based on some solid information:
The proxy hopes to start from the Third Division.
If Newco inherits Rangers share in the SPL and competes there next season it is liable for fines and penalties due from the SFA and SPL, including what will be the most severe censure handed out in the history of British football after the Improper Registration of Contracts issue is concluded. They will be hamstrung for many years, perhaps decades. They will also need to pay domestic and international football debts.
However, if the start from the Third Division, they do so without any legacy baggage from the old Rangers FC. This would allow Newco a predictable three year penury and allow them time to engage with supporters of Rangers before returning to the SPL in 2015. Season 2015-16 would be business as usual.
This is not a decision Bill Proxy can take, however, what happens to Newco is in the hands of the SPL. Listen out for Proxy’s puppets suggesting the Third Division route.
For us, it’s popcorn time, the ice-cream is stocked and the sparkling stuff is in the fridge, but in all seriousness, past, current and now future owners have absolutely trashed that football club. To paraphrase Tarantino, they’ve got medieval on their… face.
Pop! And they’re gone!

Re: Nobody wanted us

And this is probably what hurts the most. I get it that no one wants to just chuck money away given the BTC and all that, but surely to god there was someone who recognised that even at £20m we were a cracking buy and at £20m there was at least a chance that a CVA would have been palatable. But it has ended up like a phucking ebay bid, with incremental increases.
Even the real bears with money, who could have done this at no loss, not necessarilly much if any profit, but certainly with no loss want us. Its been left to some phucking bin man in America to drive the final nail in.
rangers 5 points ahead of Murderwell with a game in hand.
It would be tremendous if they slumped to Third.
Awe_Naw – I am launching a revolutionary new weight loss programme, called Feed The Bears.
You get your own personal plus-sized Rangers fan (there are a lot of them) and he’ll eat all the pies so you don’t have to.
Also it will ensure the likes of Ally McCoist and Derek Johnstone don’t starve due to their impending unemployment.

…O.K., he may have had the gold melted before pouring it down the throats of the tax collectors but he always paid for his paper[ The Daily Rampage] and he tipped his face painter heavily.
I’m reminded of the “truth” behind Triggers broom. He is showing off a picture of him receiving a medal from the council for good service. He is pictured with local councillor and his broom:
Trigg: I’ve had the same broom for twenty years.
Rodney: Its a long time…two decades.
Trigg: I wouldn’t go that far.
Del Boy: If its in such good condition…do you ever sweep any streets with it?
Trigg. Of course. We have an old saying amongst street sweepers: look after your
broom.
Rodney: …and your broom will look after you.
Trigg: No. Its just ‘Look after your broom, Dave.’
Rodney: I see.
Trigg: That’s what I done. I maintained it for twenty years. This old broom (holding it up) has had seventeen new heads and fourteen new handles in its time.
Everybody, Del Boy, Rodney, Boysy, cafe owner looks aghast.
Cafe Owner: How can it be the same bleedin’ broom then?
Trigg: Well here’s a picture of it what more do you need?

Regarding the new strip – it’s got our badge on it,that’ll do me.
Would still prefer Adidas though.
So Satans simians are planning to ‘sit on the pitch’ in protest.That’s only an ‘h’ away from how their players are on said pitch.

BABASONICOS71 – I liked Umbro. (thumbsup)
Seen more pictures on STV of the new strip. Love the wee Tri-colour ribbon round the sleeve.
Diet starts now!!
Nike football strips are like cheap training tops only double the price. Last seasons two away kits were cheap and unimaginative(see new black kit) and the barcode top was one most people looked at and thought ‘what the *%^# is that!’
I know there is not much they can do with the hoops but a couple of the mock ups were much better, such as this which someone posted on the Green Brigade site :

Me is confused.
So Bill “Billy Boy” Miller gets the evil hordes for £11.2 million (or whatever).
Who does that money go to? Craig “Whytey Boy” Whyte? The creditors at a shilling in the pound? A mixed bag of the above? Keeps most for himself for spending money later?
Does he then sell Ipox, Minty Park, the fraudulently obtained replica trophies, and Sally to a Newco for 10p, and start over buying new players with another fistful of dollars?
Also, since Ipox has been carried in the accounts since before the Christ left Dumbarton with a valuation of what? £80 – 100 million or something like that (?), how can they (whoever they are – Duff and Duffer on behalf of Bill “Billy Boy” Miller perhaps?) sell a valuable asset for a fraction of its “real” value? Surely it has to be sold to the highest bidder in an open and accountable process? Say Cala or Barratts or Stuart “Stuarty Boy” Milne or Asda with their lovely green livery, or even better, some casino owner with a new business plan woth say £700 million? 8-)))
Does anyone have any idea on this?
Cheers and Hail! Hail! to the Champions!

The problem with the Big Lie is that for those who get too close, its long shadow, darkens everything that lies outside it; so for those who either hide or are trapped in its shadow, hostage to its darkness, begin to believe it’s real.
G’day Celts, just logged on and enjoying another cracking Paul67 article.
Not seen any new strip, not that keen on anything other than green and white hoops, it’s who we are.
just had a massive plateful of cake, fruit, jelly n ice cream…… Anything to get out of this bliddy sun—>

Can’t say I like the new strip. In fact, I think it looks dire. Why black? What has that to do with Celtic?
From FF….. This mob never cease to amaze me. Moronic doesn’t even cut it……
How much of your money goes to Lawell?

Bears, we are the overwelming majority in this country and whilst we are spending our hard earned pounds with a little more discretion to hit the SFA I think that we should be further extending our funding boycott.
Is your paperboy, or milkman a tarrier? Is the guy who washes your windows or services your car a season ticket holder at the brendanbau? Is your local landlord of the wrong persuasion?
Make it your business to find out and if so dump them. In these hard economic times we need to look after our own and ensure that we are not indirectly funding paedo fc. There are plenty of hard-up bears out there who would be glad of your business and will ensure that part of your money finds it’s way back to OUR club.
There is more than one way to skin a cat and in the current climate small businesses can’t afford even a small shift in income.
Just saw the new away strip, garbage! Green and Black Hoops as a 2nd strip, quality!
Bill Proxy has little money it seems so how is he financing this takeover? It’s not the Ticketus money again by chance?
Craig Whyte, first man to buy a club twice using the fans money…..genius!!!!
