Financial Fair Play, Winding Up Orders, new CQN Magazine

868

Scottish clubs are now subject to Uefa Licensing and Financial Fair Play Regulations which insist club’s pay creditors in a timely manner or become subject to sanctions.  These pesky rules should prevent debts reaching a maturity of more than six months old and becoming subject of a Winding-up Order.  I am sure old Heavily Conflicted, also known as the SFA president, will have sprung into action on hearing recent news.

The Rangers yesterday issued a short statement following Channel 4’s story that Orlit Enterprise threatened a Winding-Up Order, insisting, “Rangers Football Club is capable of meeting any debts presented legitimately and we would like to stress to our supporters there is no threat to the Club whatsoever”.  They really need to stay on-message… football clubs are never threatened; it’s only the Company which can be liquidated!  Apparently.

I hear Charles Green is on an international bucket collection, Dubai and then onto Australia.  Meanwhile, it is crucial no one disturbs his important work.  When you think of the people who could have taken ownership of Ibrox last year, he has been absolutely perfect.

On other matters……..

The new edition of CQN Magazine is out and available for your consumption.  Written by and for Celtic fans, it is another Celtic joy!

I’m also delighted to report we have been seriously diss’ed by the Italians ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League game. Notes for the dressing room wall coming up soon!

    ‘Googybhoy,

     

     

    Something about this does not add up. Jabbas statement is so off the wall it is almost deflecting attention away from the real story.’

     

     

     

    That’s what I said.

     

     

    Either that or he’s having some kind of breakdown.

    “Very sad news regarding the closure of the erstwhile Corby Rangers Supporters Club.”

     

     

    Don’t despair. There’s a new club opening in Carstairs and they are taking over the Corby RSC history, fixtures, fittings and YouTube videos.

    Jabba fairly earning his money at Sevco. What a belter of a statement that was! lol!

    Jabba is working his passage- in more than one way!

    He is pandering to his audience. What better for his Rangers media if he can get them all boycotting the DR and have to read whatever he says.

     

     

    He may even become one of his hated “Internet bampot”.

    LOL – Very funny!!!

    The problem for Jabba is he no longer has anyone to check his work before it is printed except Sadie the Tea Wummin’

  7. Mention of face paint reminds me of Kevin bridges skit on the debts owed by old co….. Accountant trying to sort mess hun director comes in with tiger face paint….. Grrrr…….

     

     

    The image has stuck in my head….. £46 quid he paid fur that….ffs

  8. jungle jim

     

     

    Second highest wage bill in Scotland, whilst playing in the Third Division and asking for a payment plan to pay back a negotiated bill, shoots down that statement.

  9. Evening bhoys,

     

     

    Had a look at Jabba’s statement! For a start I actually thought it was a wind-up by one of us but no, he has actually released that tripe as an OFFICIAL club statement! hahaha

     

     

    As someone else said, the Jabba we experienced at the DR was “Jabba Lite” (I know…lol) but this is full on JeigerJabba with Red Bull, designed to give the hoardes wings in their fight against….well everyone as a matter of fact!

     

     

    Anyway, as has been said by countless others…

     

     

    Carry on James, Charles and Alistair, we won’t bother interrupting!

     

     

    The Rangers Football Club…The Biggest (comedy) club in Scotland!

  10. Where to start on a man who earns £140,000 a year for taking two days (despite having at least a week’s notice) to write that overblown drivel?

     

     

    Bit slow off the mark there Mr T? Just one more lamb cutlet? Aye, that would be grand, thanks. And top up the glass while you’re at it.

     

     

    All this firefighting Mr T.

     

    Just not what a man of your years and girth is cut out for any more.

     

    All these nimble internet bampots popping up all over the place – you know, the one’s who have – what are they called now – ah, yes, sources.

     

     

    And there’s you, only getting your ample arse onto the not so ample seat (or is it a throne?) when all this nonsense appears.

     

    Quick, get that wee fleg up the pole and rally the troops (shame they can’t parachute them in but that moment has passed).

     

    That’s what we need, oh yes.

     

     

    Never mind looking to see what’s coming over the horizon.

     

    That’s for another day. Though which day…

    @ Barcabhoy1

     

    Q How will potential sponsors react to Traynors latest rant a) makes no difference b)why on earth would I want my brand associated with this

  12. Jabba’s statement is truly breath-taking in its unprofessionalism, and its horrible aggression. Incredible that a club looking to “make friends” would release this to the world – it reads like the rantings of a madman.

     

     

    However, the most interesting bit is surely when he says to Orlit: “come and sue us if you think you’re hard enough”. This completely contradicts any notion that the bill is settled, and at a stroke totally undermines his complaint that the media are making something out of nothing. If I were a news editor the line I’d be running with is:

     

     

    “Rangers threaten to sue Singaporean supplier as unpaid invoice row escalates”

     

     

    Incredibly, Jabba also invites the Sevconians to boycott newspapers, thus imperiling the livelihoods of his former colleagues, because they – wait fo it – run with the suggestion that Sevco is a “new club”.

     

     

    Something that Traynor himself said in an article in the Record last summer.

     

     

    The chutzpah is breath-taking, but the aggressive bullying tone, and the weirdly unfocused stream of consciousness of this statement, make this rant not only entirely counterproductive, but actually damaging to the image of RIFC as a sane, sensible business.

  13. STILL BEGGING

     

    My earlier post re the Italian night in Inverness was so successful that I’m re-running it.

     

    For the benefit of Mary’s Meals, Mrs IC is arranging an evening of food, wine & entertainment at St Mary’s Hall in the centre of Inverness on 1st March. She’s doing the cooking herself, so the food will be outstanding. I strongly advise anyone who’ll be able to make it to buy tickets (at the bargain price of £10 a head). I promise that if there is a response, I’ll refrain from blogging on any other subject until after the event. For details, e-mail gillansinverness@aol.com.

  16. I’ve heard more conciliatory verbiage from psychopathic crack addicts who want yer wallet….and quick.

     

    Jabba’s heid’s in a total mess. What’s he on? Ye olde vintage Belair & Meths intravenous cocktail?

     

    Woudnae surprise me,

    Goebbels would have been proud

     

     

    hold that thought – I’m not sure Goebbels would stoop to that

     

     

    no editorial control and the boss away …oh dear methinks there is more to come

  18. Shortie keen to stay on message…………..at pains to peddle the myth of a difference between Klub and Kompany……………..

     

    ……oh Aye.

     

     

    Shameful.

     

     

    ………………..We welcome the case!

  19. I heard that jabba was a decent writer in his early days until he realised his job was to do exactly what he says in his rant today – to print misinformation about rangers.

     

     

    He is still at it….

  20. Compare that statement to anything else you have seen released from a football club.

     

     

    It is simply breathtaking in its aggression and amateurism.

     

     

    “And Nero fiddled while Rome burned,”

  21. RobertTressel,

     

     

    He once wrote for the Herald, and was quite good. When he pitched up at the Record things went downhill.

     

     

    Today is a nadir.

  22. My wee girl just showed me Thai tims Fraser foster song on you tube…… Brilliant…….

     

     

    Compare and contrast…..

     

     

    They had the corby rsc p*sh stained Jakey dancers

  23. 'crushed nuts?' 'Naw, Layringitis!' on

    Chuck organises a boycott of DU…big success!

     

    Chuck ‘…forces the bank to sell back the Albion car park by threatening a boycott’

     

    Chuck will boycott the SPL

     

    Jabba tells the orcs to boycott newspapers and radio shows that don’t toe the party line (encouraging them to only buy their news from the ‘EXCITING NEW products’

     

    They are disappearing up their own irrellevance.

  24. I’ve often thought that all mobile and laptop devices should be fitted with a ” breathelyser ” function before allowing their use after reading jabbas statement again I think it should be statutory!!!

     

    He’s gettin dangerous and as usual it will some innocent person who suffers because of that fat moron

  25. scotlands shame on

    “Rangers will not be closed. This Club will never run up crippling debts and we will not pay over-inflated salaries to players.”

     

    eh you are in the 3rd division against partime players on a tenner a week and you are paying a large number of squad (ex spl and internationalists) 6k plus a week, please define over inflated.

     

     

    “However, we will have a sensible pay structure which won’t threaten the club’s existence. That is what we believe the fans want.”

     

    Please also confirm that despite next years season ticket sales being added to this years an a share offer you made a loss and expect a loss next year. Please define the meaning of contradiction.
