Devil in the * detail over Whyte shares

469

Breaking news!  Craig Whyte agrees to sell his shares for £1*!!!

So the story goes.  The * is important.   *He’s agreed to sell his shares for £1 if a CVA is agreed.  Coincidentally, this decision comes a day after Ticketus inform journalists (and perhaps Mr Whyte’s briefs) that they will sue the Rangers owner for £27m.

Of course, if a CVA is agreed, Ticketus still own the tickets for the next three seasons they bought from Rangers in the early months of Whyte’s tenure.  They therefore cannot pursue Craig Whyte.  Get a CVA – get Ticketus’ lawyers off your case.

Channel 4’s very well informed, Alex ‘Tomo’ Thompson, who appears to have spoken to Mr Whyte tonight, reminds us all of the crux of the matter:

“And then that leaves the floating charge Mr Whyte has over Rangers – effectively another large separate financial stake in the club and I can reveal this is still to be negotiated away somehow. This is where the tough-talk has still very much to be done.”

Despite the headlines, it appears that Craig Whyte remains….. The Only Show in Town.  He’ll assist a CVA but the “tough-talk” over the stadium, his real asset, has still to take place.

Let’s not mention the chances of getting a CVA past HMRC.

    ps. I couldn’t believe Chic’s comment about McBride being killed!? A slip of the tongue but a mistake that any half decent reporter would avoid!

     

    ……………………………………………………

     

    There is a school of thought that there was more to it than came out at the time.

     

    Perhaps Chic is of that school?

  2. Anyone who missed the Thai Tims on BBC ALBA tonight, like me, the programme is repeated at 4:30 on Sunday.

     

    So celebrate the league trophy, hurry home and watch it.

     

    There’s nothing else on, only some overated footie title decider with two teams who are in over a billion pounds of debt, and not one of them are the huns!!

  3. well well

     

     

    there’s life in the dead dog yet

     

     

    is there any chance the CIA are behind this – they funded bin laden, it’s that mad it’s got to be a front for something big

    Useless facts – Round 2

     

     

    Why are goods often priced at 2.99, 5.99 and not whole pounds, a sales ploy?

     

     

    Not at all, it originated in the U.S. and was devised to stop theiving salesmen. If a customer paid for goods valued 5 dollars and handed over 5 dollars, he needed no change and a salesman could refrain from ringing it up and pocket the dosh. If it was 4.99 the customer wanted his 1 cent change so it had to be rung up

     

     

    I thank you

    Why don’t we just forget about them?

     

     

    The ultimate annoyance to them is ignoring the insignificant defuncters.

     

     

    I’ll sigh when there manly history is over, they are insignificant.

     

     

    Then again I’m oot celebrating the Celtic 1997 title win, what I say tonight is Puuure utter bunkum.

    I don’t know what is the worse, mossies are easier to get rid,though the bites are worse midgies are a feckin nightmare,

     

     

    I must admit I’m not prepared, they must have hatched in the last couple of days, have all the things at the ready, this time last year I got bitten on my eyelid, not a good place I have to say :>)

    I have to admit I had thought of turning my back on Scottish Football if the Newcheats were allowed back in.

     

    I had decided to bide my time, let things develope, watchful waiting.

     

    I’ve been persuaded that I don’t need to wait for anything.

     

    Reading what guys like you have said, BRHT’s brilliant input yesterday was moving and persuasive.

     

    I have never had a season ticket, although I get along to a good few games a year. Always have, work demands mostly. I’ll still miss some games next year, but”……..

     

    Next year I will have a season ticket as will my daughter, she’s been coming with me for a few years.

     

    Celtic don’t need no stinkin Rangers, but they need us.

    brilliant stuff on BBC tonight , it’s good to see a balanced arguement on BBC Scotland for a change,Jim Spence seems to plough a lonely furrow.

     

     

    the LL seem more concerned with their own careers than the well being of Scottish Football.

     

     

    liking your articles just now ,they’re keeping me calm ,also quite a few non-Celtic fan friends and Colleagues enjoying your stuff too.
