I didn’t hear the scores of other games this weekend until today when I read a red card protest (remember the day Celtic fans gave birth to this concept?) occurred at Ibrox to demonstrate disapproval to any potential new owner who plans to liquidate Rangers.
It would be preferable to everyone if Rangers paid their bills, restoring a degree of dignity, although apparently no one is offering to do this. Publicly bidders for the club will all confirm their preference is to exit administration via a Creditors Voluntary Arrangement (CVA). Offering pennies in the pound for a company is unquestionably a great deal, for the buyer, but whoever is nominated as preferred bidder this week is likely to have a serious option to liquidate the club.
Demonising the liquidation option carries risks for Rangers fans. Short of raising considerably more money than they have thus far and paying their bills, there is little fan power can do right now. If liquidation is the best option for creditors it will happen, better to accept the reality of the situation. Whatever the resulting phoenix club is called, if the new owners inherit animosity from the start it will only diminish the potential of their new club.
We’re looking for articles for CQN Magazine again. If there is something you would like to write about email me, celticquicknews@gmail.com.

Summa – just catching up – good luck mate
yesterday sorry
Question to Collum: Can we see the eyes on the back of your head? can we?
Prospective owner of the huns wants agree a CVA with creditors and then talk transfer targets with McCoist.
Or in other words, stiff all of the folk the club owes money to and then spend cash on new players instead.

another thing how big a moron would the new owner have to be to keep on TFPLG? He’s shown he has no eye for signing players and can’t win big games!

i once worked for Stepek.We put a green leather suite on display in the shop window.Guess what …one of the local tribe came in and advised the shop would be burnt out if it wasnt removed that day!
HAIL HAIL

Question for collum.
“Apart from rangers (TWICE!), have you ever given the same team three penalties in a single SPL match?”
Dave Ellis´s father and Sir David Murray go back a very long way..very tight.
They are neighbours Guernsey .. have been for decades.
Dave Ellis now coming out at this stage is pall art of the Murray charade and right on cue.
Hail Hail

@STVGrant: A rare opportunity to sit down with a top Scottish MIB today in Willie Collum. What would you want to ask him?
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Willie!…What does it feel like when you look in the mirror and what looks back at you resembles a toadying, weak, pitiful, pathetic excuse for a human being wearing an apron?
Hi Willie, do you still keep in touch with Hugh ?

That’d be good, followed up with ‘What did you think of the Pope email?’
How thick are these bears?
We have a Ellis saying he will go to court for his rightful 25% of Rangers and in the same paper they are talking about getting CVAs and selling the club to a 3rd party.
There is no way any sale or transfer of shares can be completed whilst there is a dispute over how much Whyte actually owns and whether somebody else in fact owns a large chunk, and a large say, in the business.
D&P are Whyte’s handpicked men. D&P will liquidate. D&P were always going to liquidate.
D&P are legneds

I can’t get past the feeling that there’s more to the timing of Ellis’s announcement than meets the eye …
Or are we simply to believe that his is another name to be added to the growing list of seemingly savvy business peepil who have been duped by the Motherwell born Machiavelli … ?

Just another coincidence no doubt.
Whatever happens, don’t mention the name David Murray in any of this

“Jackie Burns, a local councillor, says the town, which has 2,000 Catholic residents, is being portrayed unfairly. “Larkhall is an integrated, mixed community,” he said. “It is similar to many towns in the west of Scotland and I am certainly not aware that it is in any way different.”
I’ve never heard of Jackie Burns. Jackie Burns is a liar.

Have you ever considered a career in Pantomime?

Could be a liar, or (like many of his knuckle-dragging consituents) could just be deluded fool:

Ellis has picked his time, hasn’t he?
Mind you, I do remember newspaper talk of him getting 25% of the shares once Whyte took over.Not that that counts for much – good job he shook hands with Craigy boy on the deal. No way he can walk away from that.
You simply could not make it up.
According to the Guardian forty two year old Chancellor, or if you please Chancer, George Osborne has just discovered that many of Britain’s rich don’t pay their taxes.
FF are hilarious.
Whole thread on how Miller and the Americans should be ruled out as they have history with Ellis and Ellis is dodgy….however Paul Murray who was a non-exec board member during the EBT wheeze that has killed them is a top man and a saviour.

Hey Willie, if a tree falls down in a forest and you’re not there to see it, do the huns still get a penalty?
Great !
Where’s Declan to get this back in perspective?
If Bill Ng takes control he wants to win a second European trophy for Rangers.
Comedy Gold.
Moonbeams from the far east and someone better tell him about Europe!
Hey: I think I may have spotted something …
DBBIA goes, Declan steps up to the plate.
DBBIA comes back, Declan disappears.
Hmmmm

Thanks for the link Folly.
He does have a kind of delusional countenance. The shirt, however, pretty much screams delusional.

How did you find playing the gimp in Reservoir Dogs,was it harder that playing a referee?
DBBIA
Welcome back! Did you just refrain from posting or was it lurking too? If it was both I don’t know how you managed with some of the days we’ve had on here but welcome back you’ve been missed.
Willie you didnae see it, did you?
Off topic: I see our very own Philvis is appearing as ‘Today’s featured article’ on wikipedia:

Before anyone calls me a hvn, I have posted here since CQN’s 1st year in 2004 and have met many of the regulars on several occasions.
I am not trying to be in any way controversial, but I am genuinely concerned that Joe O’Rourke’s Titanic tweet is being airbrushed into banter. Joe needs to resign. I am prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt that he is not a bigot, but perception is everything, and his tweet in no shape or form represented me. My club is better than that. Probably doesn’t matter, but for the record I am an atheist.
