Bizarre fantasy-rant from Miller

1206
By on CQN BLOG & Comments

Someone forwarded me the statement from US based Bill Miller which I read and ignored, thinking it was a wind-up.  Incredibly, it’s ““Real””.

Bill tells us he will invest £11.2m into the club and:

“There is no way that Ticketus would agree to accept a “pence on the pound.

“It is apparent that there will be several lawsuits that will emerge in relation to a potential CVA exit.

“In order to preserve the club’s history, records, championships and assets, I will put the “heart” of the club into an “incubator” company while Duff & Phelps works to make the “sick patient” healthy through a CVA process that effectively works to “radiate” the toxicity of past administrations’ sins out of the patient while the “healthy heart” is preserved and moves forward.”

The above is an actual quote.  I’m not even sure the pubs are open in America at this time of day.

But Bill, the “sick patient” owns the stadium, and as you suggest, a CVA would be prolonged.  Craig Whyte owns security over the stadium and your refusal to deal with him might make playing there…. awkward.  Any creditor, like HMRC or Whyte, could and perhaps would challenge a disposal of assets like the one you suggest.

He goes on:

“Any suggestion that Rangers history is lost by such a process is preposterous.

“Using such logic, Rangers would not actually have a 140-year history as its current corporate structure was only created in 1899. To suggest that Rangers thus have only a 113-year-old history is absurd.”

We’ve explained this one before.  Rangers were incorporated 113 years ago; “Real”.  The same entity, owning the same assets, existed pre-incorporation as an unincorporated football club.

Buying and selling history is almost as entertaining as buying the Eiffel Tower in cash off a guy in a Bellshill pub.  If it’s possible, I demand Celtic PLC get off their bums and buy the history of ancient Greece.

Bill adds:

“My offer is contingent upon the regulatory bodies agreeing that the club will begin play in the 2012/13 season in the SPL and that they will do so without any loss of points and with all historic titles intact.”

Ah, “contingent upon”.  A condition; just what Duff and Phelps asked to be excluded.  You’ve underplayed this one, Bill.  If the SPL will agree to this they will surely agree to give you a 10 point bonus next season, just for being so nice.

“The time for talk is over. The club is in serious jeopardy of dying. “Real” [sic]liquidation is looming.”

I like this guy.  He sounds like a “Real” level headed custodian for Rangers. Alas, I fear Duff and Phelps will be in sombre mood when next we hear from them.

    HT,

     

     

    Not sure if you know, but Airbles Road got lot roadworks just now, and Motherwell Station is blocked off just now too. Traffic is murder so leave plenty time to get there.

     

     

    The Trotters bus folded few years back. There is still a bus leaves from there, but much smaller than used to be.

     

     

    HAIL! HAIL!

    Four Leaf…. No problems…. I can’t tie my shoelaces but I know some useless keech! :-)

     

     

    AOW.

     

     

    Sharkeys is a big Celtic pub. It isn’t a brazen or a Bairds but 99% of the clientèle are massive Celtic Supporters. The family were part of the delegation that laid the Donegal turf in centre spot at Celtic Park.

     

     

    hail hail

    And so to bed and a fond goodnight and goodbye with a wee tear………in my stomach muscles from laughing.

     

     

     

    Farewell to the club deck, the Govan stand too,

     

    The Copeland road’s silent, the blue order blue

     

    Farewell Mister Murray, just turn off the light

     

    As yer headstone is painted with Green Orange and White.

     

     

    Farewell to your five stars, yer blue white and red

     

    Yer queen has disowned ye, declared that yer dead

     

    Farewell to yer bouncy, Farewell, to yer sash

     

    Yer Derry’s wall’s crumbled, Farewell to yer cash

     

     

    Farewell Tina Turner, you were never the best

     

    You cried ‘no surrender’ then failed every test

     

    Farewell marble staircase, Farewell Mr Struth

     

    Your last breath and whisper ‘Farewell to truth’.

     

     

    Hail hail

    Looking forward to the El Clasico the morra, should be a laugh, Barca will hump them, of that I am sure, the odds are crap btw, but am looking so much to see grown men with tears streaming down their faces, all in the best possible sence of the ocasion when real lose.

     

     

    It’s getting hotter every day, took a wee dip yesterday, still a tad chilly, but soon enough, not over the rainy season yet, much rain to come for a week or two, then comes summer :>)))

  11. The Token Tim on

    By El Classico you must be referring to the Scottish Grand National surely?

    I used to work in there.

     

     

    TGCW and I used to drink in the Calton after the Celtic games then I’d jump in a taxi at 7.50pm to start work at 8pm. Spent much of my shift filling up my glass from the vodka optics :-))

     

     

    Fat Sally was a bit of a regular in there back in the days.

  34. THE EXILED TIM on

    Will we see the El Glasico next week ?????? we will, trust me on that, they will make the end of the season, they need the 1.8 mill, they will get their ill gotten money, rancid to the core so they are.

     

     

    Prediction, and I have been saying it for a while now, no huns playing in scotland next season, 50-50 the season after.

     

     

    I am assured that win or lose the morra, my amigo, who is a mad Real man, is giving me a few bottles of his best, and his no so best is nectar, this Tim is salavating at the thought….
