Club 9 Sports released a priceless statement tonight indicating they are considering an investment in Rangers only as part of a consortium and will not be bidding for the club on their own.
So far, so clear. They then entertain us with a remarkable interpretation of liquidation, saying:
“We understand that it has been strongly rumored that our group planned to “liquidate” the club. It should be made clear that any party that attempts to acquire the club, eliminate the debts, affect a turnaround, invest monies and put the club back on solid ground is in fact “saving” the club from liquidation and preserving its past and its future.
“In an asset purchase, all of the good and valuable assets (records, marks, names, trophies, players, staff, history) are preserved and separated from the bad and harmful liabilities (tax bills, bad contracts, creditors), which have put the club into administration and which act to force the entirety into liquidation.”
“Saving” the club from liquidation by putting the entirety into liquidation. Don’t laugh, they honestly wrote this.
For the record, you can’t sell history or records. Can you imagine? Britain could flog off our whole empire period and maybe use the current economic crisis in Greece to buy their classical period from them. Aristotle, from Scotland, perhaps.
Personally, I would love to be the first Briton to hold aloft the European Cup, maybe Billy McNeill would sell me that record? He’s had it for 45 years now, it can’t be worth that much to him anymore.
I wonder how much Messi would sell his record breaking Champions League history? Barca are playing catch-up with Real Madrid in the European Champions stakes. Instead of buying expensive footballers they could just offer Real cash for some of the trophies won during the 1950s.
David Murray should have saved himself all the trouble and just offered our old board a few million for the Lisbon history, just think:
Rangers, European Champions, 1967. Opportunity missed. Murray should have had a word with Club 9.
I’m enjoying these guys already, hope they are given the green light tomorrow. What terrified Brian Kennedy floats my boat. They even finished off with some sweet platitudes about a “legendary fan base”. I think we have a winner….

Margaret,
Would have to begin in the Scottish courts then escalated when not proven verdict is issued.
The beauty of my sneeky we plan is that Celtic would be playing outside Scotland. Though I’d rather we were still in the spl so the euro ban on all Scottish international competition would apply.
Bankrupt the game in Scotland and move on.
I originally had a silly idea we could help sort the game out.
But events have overtaken such noble ideas.
Destroy them
Maggie
I reckon the ref had orders as there was a fair amount of jostling and holding from set pieces in the first leg.
I noticed Barca executing a perfect “pick” on a Milan defender at a corner as well.
Justice was done.

Aye I know. I agree. I wish Celtic had such guile sometimes.
As well as jelly n ice cream, I’m getting myself a pair of tap shoes to dance on their grave.
If it happens this week we’ll can sing:
Cadbury creme eggs when Rangers die.

Mags, I’m not going to scroll back to see what that turd has been saying but I’ll bet my house it will have racial connotation,s or racial innuendo, or just downright racist against either the blacks or the Irish or the Palestinians, written in a patronisingly superior manner. In other words he is behaving like an uber- hun. That guys track record on here as a bigot, a racist, and generally just a slimy creepy fud is a long one, and still posters fawn over him in the most vomit inducing sycophantic fashion.

kit… its out of order for a Celtic supporter but I believe in free speech
Oh one more thing.
Why would the sfa & spl have a confidentiality agreement with the hun, during their recent negotiations ?
If any information on the guilt of the hun was discussed, would it be subject to the agreement?
If so do they have any right to make such an agreement on behalf of the member clubs ?
Question: What Scottish team has benefited the most from miscegenation
Answer: Celtic and the King of Kings!
Kit, lhads,
I’m getting sick of the bigot word being misused.
We are all bigots, everyone in the world is a bigot.
Personally I refuse to countenance any argument that promotes fascism and I’m happy declare that to the world.
I am a bigot and proud of it.
Right sleepy te

A COLOUR blind decorator has piled more misery on Rangers fans by painting their famous blue pub GREEN. Bungling Jack Cooper coated Light Blues boozer the Louden Tavern, in Glasgow’s east end, in the colours of rivals Celtic, below.
Pub boss Leeann Colligan said: “It’s a big mistake. We have been getting the pub refurbished.” Gers fan Jack, 53, claims the blatantly green shade is ‘Scandinavian blue’. But Leeann said: “When we saw it, we could see that it was clearly green. “Our first thought was that the painter was colour blind. You have to see the funny side though.” And she reassured diehard punters — who are already reeling from the Ibrox club’s cash woes — the boozer will be going back to its blue hue so they can enjoy their match day pints. Leeann — who wanted to throttle Jim along with her assistant Caroline Thomson — added: “We are not closing or turning into a Celtic pub.” The blunder sparked hilarity among Hoops fans online yesterday. Twitter user @dannybhoy777 wrote: “Whoever painted the Louden Tavern green is an absolute genius! Hail Hail.” But Jack told Gers fans they’ve not to worry — as the green paint is just the undercoat. He said: “I’m colour blind and there was a mix up with the colour. It dried to a shade of green.”

Creditors to vote on series of proposals
Rangers administrators Duff and Phelps are to present a report to the club’s creditors today and will ask them to vote on a series of proposals.
All creditors will have the opportunity to vote on the proposals, with a deadline of noon on 20 April set for votes to be cast.
The administrators stressed that it was part of standard administration procedure and that the report and proposals are not a creditors’ meeting at which a Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA) will be put forward, or any other form of exit from administration determined.
Paul Clark, joint administrator, said in a statement: “As administrators we are obliged, as part of our statutory duties, to put forward our initial report and statement of proposals to creditors by 5 April. The report will be uploaded to the Rangers Football Club website (www.rangers.co.uk) from that date.
“All creditors will have the opportunity to vote on the proposals. In essence, the proposals consist of a set of legal and technical resolutions which relate to routine housekeeping matters, for which the Joint Administrators are required to seek creditors’ approval.
“The proposals, if approved, will allow the Joint Administrators to continue the administration process until an appropriate exit from administration can be found. The meeting is to be held solely by correspondence in accordance with Rule 2.28 of the Insolvency (Scotland) Rules 1986. This is not a creditors’ meeting at which a Company Voluntary Arrangement will be proposed, nor will any other form of exit from administration be determined at this juncture.”

Today we find out if anyone is daft enough to pick over the bones of the dead and soon to be extinct dodorfc. I wanted a slow lingering demise so shouldn’t complain when it happens, it feels like everydays a party……

In order to disprove the lie re Celtic needing rfc, I’m keen to purchase a ST for next season, I reckon we’ll see a more honest, transparent competition free from the obvious need of some officials to help the Huns to victory.

My mum recently bought a single square sausage in Brigton. At a quid for one, she thought that was a bit steep. On questioning the proprietor she discovered the transaction to be a bargain.
Apparently they’re 85% stake.
De nada amigo,,,,, later.

Is hybrid liquidation a previously unknown interim stage on the Bristol stool scale?
The MSM do seem to be experts in that field.
Just to reassure anyone, if you Google ‘hybrid liquidation’ the only hits are about Rangers.

Serge at 5:31,
I guess they’re only thinking of you’re own safety, in case trouble flares up.

Apologies if already posted
Porto fined 16000 for racist taunts -Celtic fined 21000 for a wee sweary word and a matchstick hmmmm

Yeah that’s exactly what it is mate, Gutted but can’t be helped. Will just make do with rolling an egg when Rangers die. HH
Bryce as you know…… ‘hybrid liquidation’ is contrived to pacify the baying Orcs in order to avoid the drunken rampages thriough the streets of Glasgow.
‘hybrid liquidation’ = Extinction = dead = gone for ever = thumbs up

I tell years awe sumfin for nuffin.
If the day ever comes when we are asked to give the away support a bit of our half time pie for the good of Scottish football. That’ll be the last green straw in my cup of coke.
