There was a degree of anticipation that we would hear the official announcement today of the creditors meeting Duff and Phelps planned to hold on 6 June, where a vote would be held on the proposed CVA. Creditors must receive notification of a meeting, with proposals, 14 days in advance, with notice normally given by post and by advertisement.
STV today revealed that the administrators hope to send details “at some point this week”. Tomorrow is the last postal date for items to be delivered on time for a 6 June meeting, but it’s seldom administrators would leave themselves at the fortune of the final postal collection. It would be embarrassing if Duff and Phelps were unable to even get to the stage of putting a proposal to creditors.
Inspired by the stories of three children, Celtic Quick News readers this year have raised a considerable sum of money for research into Neuroblastoma. One of them, Niamh Curry, age 5, slipped away yesterday. There are no words or sentiment of consolation to offer, but our thoughts and prayers go to Niamh and her family.

SDM been talking to Alex Thompson?
£600m…….
Right,bawbaws,I’ll sleep easier knowing the huns missed out on £600m tbh.
i think one thing we can establish from the rcfia saga are that dumb and dumber are up to their necks in it as well as the rest, who governs these guys? and why has it been allowed to go this long. fear of bother? if so bulling really does work because i cant see a reason to keep a company which is losing money everyday with no hope of ever making money again afloat.

Rangers owner Craig Whyte has failed to overturn a court order forcing him to pay an £86,127 bill to a roofing firm.
In February this year Mr Whyte was branded “wholly unreliable” by a sheriff in the legal action and was ordered to pay One Stop Roofing for supplies.
The roofing firm claimed Mr Whyte’s business Tixway UK, which is registered to rented offices in Glasgow’s Bath Street, had breached an agreement to pay for goods bought by another company, Snowcast UK.
Mr Whyte, 41, disputed this and said he was not responsible for paying the bill and claimed he too was owed money.
Following the judgment an appeal on behalf of Tixway was lodged on March 5 this year. Nobody turned up to represent the company at a preliminary hearing previously and another hearing was fixed for Monday at Glasgow Sheriff Court for the firm to send a representative.
Sheriff Principal Craig Scott refused the appeal on Monday after once again legal representatives on behalf of the company were not sent and ruled that the original decision made by Sheriff Nigel Ross for Tixway to pay the money stood.
The case centred on the business relationship between Mr Whyte, Chris Keating, who owned Snowcast UK, and One Stop Roofing Supplies, which is run by Robert Jenkins. During a previous hearing the court heard Mr Whyte was introduced to Mr Jenkins in April 2008 through friend and businessman Mr Keating.
The court was told Mr Whyte helped Mr Keating’s own business by lending money when it was required. It was said that Mr Keating regularly bought supplies from the roofing firm.
Mr Whyte, who bought an 85% stake in Rangers from Sir David Murray for a nominal £1 last May, said he did not agree for invoices for Mr Keating’s business to be sent to or paid by him. The court also heard that Mr Whyte became the director of Tixway after serving a seven-year disqualification from being a company director.
When asked why he was banned, the current owner of the Ibrox club who has agreed to sell his shares to a consortium fronted by Charles Green said he could not remember why he was banned as it was some time ago. He added he did not want to say in open court and get it wrong.
In his ruling on the case, Sheriff Ross stated: “I accept the evidence led by the pursuer (One Stop Roofing) as credible and reliable, and supported by the available documentation. I reject the evidence of Mr Whyte as wholly unreliable. It is not possible to ascertain whether he is not telling the truth or is simply unable to recollect the true position, and has convinced himself that this arrangement is something that he would not have entered into. Either way, his evidence is contradicted by virtually every other piece of evidence.”
NEIL Lennon’s side delivered the SPL title back to its rightful place at Paradise and already thousands of supporters have signed up for the new campaign.
The club is delighted with the magnificent response from fans and season ticket renewal sales are up on the same point last year.
Supporters are looking forward to seeing the team bid to retain the SPL trophy, while there is also the prospect of UEFA Champions League football on the horizon, with the first of Celtic’s qualifiers included in the season book.
European nights at Paradise are always great occasions and Celtic Park is renowned throughout the football world as a special venue to play.
Due to the high volume of renewal forms received over the weekend, the Ticket Office will spend this week processing all forms. This also provides you with a last chance to guarantee your seat for next season.
You can also renew online HERE until midnight on Friday, May 25. The facility will close after that, but you can still renew until 12noon the following day at the Ticket Office counter only.
Relocations will start from 12noon on Saturday, May 26 and will run through Monday. Thereafter, all seats in the stadium will go on general sale. Any seats that have not been renewed by the start of relocations on Saturday at 12noon cannot be guaranteed to be available for next season.
Thanks again for the fantastic support and we look forward to seeing everyone back for an exciting season next year.
Since 25 August 2007, Kieron Dyer has played 90 minutes in a Premier League match ONCE, and he has been offered a new contract at QPRFC.

Your right about the classy Katona- Jodie Marsh then. She’s a good quintessentially Essex girl. Just think Katona represents that grubby greedy grasping ‘I’ll do absolutely anyfing to be famous’ kind of sub-culture that I rightly or wrongly associate with Essex.
Does anybody know of any good apartments to rent around august time in palma nova? Family friendly pool etc? Thanks in advance
Hail Hail
First time logging on today
All I can say is to mirror what has already been said and offer condolences to the family of young Niamh.
Heaven has a new angel, may she rest in peace
Chantelle to Jade Goody, Jodie Marsh to Denise van Outen… Aaaahhhh!

Wonky radar – think of ole U2 [ and Essex ]bobble hat legned The Edge.

NEIL Lennon and his players face one final game this season when they play Norwich City in a testimonial for Adam Drury tomorrow night (Tuesday, May 22).
The friendly encounter will also see Neil Lennon face fellow Celtic great and former midfield partner, Paul Lambert, who manages the Canaries.
We will have LIVE coverage of the match on Celtic TV – with audio coverage for those in the UK and Ireland, and live video for those outwith.
The match kicks off at 7.45pm on Tuesday night, which means our commentary team, led by Gerry Harte, will be on air 10 minutes before kick-off.
If Alex Thompson has evidence of Duff & Duffer not going with the best offer,HMRC would move quickly to remove them?

Pantalonio- the Night Porter. Went to the pics to see it.
Made nae sense to me, and it made nae sense tae Mo.
Still she looked better in the ole Hugo Boss than Heinrich Himmler.
Paul67,
Are you suggesting that there not even be an attempt to establish a CVA? If so, would that mean liquidation? One can but hope.
May Naimh enjoy peace with the Lord and his angels in our heavenly homeland.
The Night Porter. That’s the one! Thanks, guys.
The same lassie took me to see ‘the Exorcist’.
Nae wonder the relationship was doomed.
The catering company my girlfriend at the time worked for caered the Jean Michel Jarré Docklands Gig
We got complimentary AAA passes. Got introduced to JMJ and Charlotte rampling at the after show party

Not really a JMJ fan, she was, but a good night it was

Zardoz: A man with an Edinburgh accent is playing for Bonnyrigg Rose, he goes up for a header, there is a terrible clash of heads. He is unconscious. He wakes up in the year 2293, in a post-apocalyptic Govan. He has suddenly went from a catholic/Celtic fan to a Viva Zapata moustachioed red nappy wearing gear- it is a world inhabited mostly by brutes, who worship Zardoz, a huge flying hollow stone head, called “Dave”, that turns him into a hun: “I don’t undershtand football allegiances…I only shupport the team that playsh the best shocker”…very prescient that film…

By playing all their games they have just saved 25,000 stamps. No flies on Duff and Duffer.
Heartfelt condolences to the Curry family, the loss of a child is a terrible burden to bear for any family, may the ‘Good Lord’ hold you all in his tender care, may he comfort you, may he hold little Niamh close to his loving heart!
Tinytim! get well soon!
KoJo! Be just, fear not!, as always!, and hurry back!
