Dunfermline statement on Rangers

1133

This evening’s announcement by Dunfermline Athletic that they no longer expect to receive timely receipt of the £80,000 ticket money Rangers FC PLC (in administration) owe them will heighten concerns at Inverness Caledonian Thistle, who have a stock at tickets with Rangers right now, money for which will be received by the administrators in advance of their game later this month.

The administrators have yet to decide whether to retain high-earning players or make more funds available for existing creditors, and future creditors, like Inverness.  As ticket sales for the Inverness game are on-going, the administrators will need to be aware of their legal position before retaining a premium squad.

One final push (this week) for the Vanessa Riddle Appeal. We have a Celtic top signed by the first team squad available to auction on eBay. You can bid on the auction and help send Vanessa for the treatment she needs by clicking here. Thanks to Penfold for the donation and to Taggsybhoy for organising (yet again).

  1. Oh How I wish I could meet that fat old pr**k of a spark who was on a job with me in 97, who used to sing ‘Bluebells’ everyday, who used to be non stop winding up about how his club were better in every way.

     

     

    GIRUY you fat bleep

  2. Been busy tonight,now spending time catching up on the usual terrific standard of posts then switched over to STV ? ?

     

     

    What the feck is this program all about ? Propaganda ?

     

     

    Deluded huns showing the usual lack of any remorse.

     

    I hear Paul Murray is being touted as the new saviour………His silence was deafening during tax evasion ya retards

  3. so is the song for sunday as follows

     

     

    to the tune of Cliffs CONGRATULATIONS.

     

     

    administration……then liquidation and we’ll let the world know how happy that we are

     

     

    Everybody!!!!

     

     

    HH

  4. the long wait is over on

    Henry McLeish was the complete snapshot of what were going to hear ad infinitum

     

     

    The most important thing is that Rangers come out of this quickly and positively.

     

     

    No mention of paying suppliers , no mention of paying income tax , NIC or VAT back to the public purse.

     

     

    He ought to be ashamed of himself.

     

     

     

    Again.

  5. Absolute joke on STV. Poor huns have found themselves in trouble so everyone must help. And such a well run club too!

     

     

    Trevor Stephen? Where did they dig that numpty up from? Not a clue.

     

     

    Dingwall was exactly what you would expect – a not very bright hun. He reckons the fans can raise up to £30M. Well that will pay about a quarter of the debts, then what?

  6. Tricoloured Ribbon on

    What an utter disgrace that STV news was there.

     

     

    Henry Mc Leish,Stevens and Mingwall totally unchallenged spouting full Newco scenario and the tax bill swept totally under the carpet.

     

     

    At least we have Daly to take them to task on BBC.That was absolutely scandalous.

    No problem m8 :)

     

     

    Best interview so far, I think Sky were taken by suprise, they must have thought he was another establishment figure :)

  8. !!Bada Bing!! Kano 1000 on

    From a few sources,i think Trevor Steven might be in the public eye a bit more soon,if you catch my drift.

  9. Why are we still getting this ranjurs Celtic p*sh??? We are tops and thems are dead!!! Celtic then thems some where down the line!!

    Funny – started off quite sane..then it became a ‘no surrender to the bogtrotters’ type thing..I think it would be best for everyone now if they just died quietly and quickly. Incredible someone with such low intellect can type, mind you..

  11. the complete lack of contrition is incredible. They always talk about dignity so why doesnt the administrator apologise with “dignity” to:

     

     

    The rankers fans for taking their money under false pretences (I know I know);

     

    the other scottish clubs who they owe money to for gate receipts and transfers;

     

    the other european clubs they owe transfer fees to;

     

    local companies been bumped for jobs they have carried out; and

     

    last but not least to every tax payer in the Uk for denying them anything varying from £40 to £75 million in taxes that could have been spent on schools, hospitals, old folks care you name it.

     

     

    Maybe I am old fashioned but even fred the shred apologised.

  12. Enjoyed ole Archie McPherson giving sdm pelters last night on the same program.

     

    Tonight was the “lets even that up” attempt.

     

     

    Stv & the huns . A disgrace.

  13. lookin for any info on dodgy dealing during their 9 in a row

     

     

    i have 51mill in 2004 from MIH, who are now owned by the bank/government/taxpayer

     

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/2392840/Rangers-raise-51m-through-share-scheme.html

     

     

    tho, i know that this probably relates to maybe 2000/2001 and forward etc

     

     

    was there an 80mill deposit by MIH also ?

     

    when was that ?

     

     

    am really interested in the 9 in a row time

     

     

    MSM policy these days appears to be ….

     

    “our 9 in a row is untouchable” !!!

     

     

    thanks in advance

    so who do you vote for and please state what their views are on this

  15. !!Bada Bing!! Kano 1000 on

    SOAL-I believe HMRC are digging back to 1993,when he went to Marseilles and back pretty quickly,for ridiculously high fees.I am sure they will find nothing and all will be above board.

  16. Only absolute idiots would want a former board member (Paul Murray) to come back and be their saviour.

     

    Do these people understand why their club is in the mess it’s in? I’m beginning to wonder.

  17. Despite all the speculation and opinions on here, informed or otherwise, is it not so so that a basic fundamental of the administrator’s function is to establish a commercial value for RFC and all it’s assets?

     

     

    Would any sort of valuation currently not lie a very long way south of that shown on the balance sheets for the past few years?

     

     

    If the large discrepancy cannot be properly explained (other than by “imaginative accounting”) would that not prove that RFC have continued to trade for several years despite being insolvent, which is, I believe, a criminal offence?

     

     

    Should criminal offences not lead to criminal charges? Even in Scotland it should be possible, with or without the direct help of the polis.

     

     

    I’m not qualified to judge with any certainty, but Hector is, with bells on!

     

     

    Also don’t believe that a CVA is probable during current adminstration. If I’m wrong – it disnae matter – the next one is not far behind.

     

     

    All up to Hector – how far do they want to push it? They have the skill, knowledge and resources to obliterate RFC.

     

     

    If newspaper reports are to be believed (a big if) Hector is looking at 8 current/former EPL clubs suspected of similar activities.

     

     

    In that context an SPL club is small potatoes, but a high-profile SPL club is a very good marker to lay down.

     

     

    Have absolutely nothing to back it up, but just imagine that RFC are about to be flushed down the toilet as a lightweight pawn in a much bigger game.

     

     

    They really are not as important as some politicians try to make them out be.

     

     

    Cheers

    keep focused but don’t get to upset with the establishment donkeys.

     

     

    Remember how they protrayed the refs strike and how the truth came out.

     

     

    We have the same endgame here.

     

     

    Just can’t get enough

    it was Butcher

     

     

    a river of hunguffery

  20. thecat,

     

     

    the burning pain for them, which their bluster and pomp sought to conceal, was that Europe was always a land of myth and legend, a never never land, a tir na nog if you will, where the big boys played.

     

     

    It is rumoured that, each year, in this Europe the fairest of them all are granted a great cup – and that those who drink from it remain forever young.

     

     

    Those with a dark heart are forever denied this favour, and the pain sears like a hot knife, making them very very ugly… its true, cross ma heart.

    He and Struth are “credited” with implementing their signing policy.

     

    Sorry for the mistake, wee keyboard, drunk fingers.

     

     

    As I said though, like your game.

    MWD and Lennybhoy could sell them for ye as they look like

     

     

     

    Decent badge sellers

  24. Honest Mistake, nothing to do with it.

     

     

    up_over_goal, I have no info on such a letter, rumour of which I gather started on a Rangers site. As thought they’d know.

     

     

    Remember, we are all getting as much misinformation as information these days.

     

     

    Spearman, sorry, can’t remember the question now, but I’m sure it wasn’t stupid.

     

     

    Lennybhoy, whether he feels confident or not, he’ll sound confident.

     

     

    Southbhoy, fantastic stuff. Good luck and let us know.

    I voted – past – for SNP.

     

     

    Who I vote for in the next one depends on how this and other aspects play out.
