I hear regular reports that Our Hero is fastidious, clever, experienced and has expert legal advice on company rescue matters. But I read (on Random Thoughts’ blog) that he doesn’t always take great care when filling out forms or doing paperwork.
Now he has a formidable foe on his case. Alastair Johnston, the non-exec who may have been asleep at the wheel when Rangers FC PLC (in administration) were industriously working on schemes to avoid taxation, has written to the Crown Office asking them to investigate the acquisition of Rangers by Craig Whyte. No Surrender Johnston, as he is knows in some parts, a sleeping giant of the sports industry, is awake and he’s darn irritated!
I love good irony. Can you believe, he wrote to the CROWN Office! Forces of the Crown are all over this situation already. You have to wonder how deeply Her Majesty’s officers will delve now they’re on the case.
As anyone who has followed recent perjury trials in Scotland will know, not all alleged crimes are investigated, on occasion, action needs to be in the public interest, but you have to think that if our hero has failed to cross a t or dot an i, No Surrender Johnston will pursue Our Hero like the well-pensioned accountant he is. If his suspicions are correct, I’m sure he will not rest until it’s Gaol for the Rangers miscreants.

I would have great respect & sympathy for the words from st.martindeporres’ post and the flailing around of Rankers fans as they watch their fascist,criminal enterprise crumble around them,EXCEPT for the fact that their team are (recognised as such in the global football community) violent thugs,and the fans are an adjunct of The Black & Tans.
They made many of our lives a living hell.
We will have to be VERY careful of any encounter of the roaming gangs that will undoubtedly shuffle forth this weekend. That,in itself,tells the story of this most reprehensible organisation.

Summa, cheers. :-)
31003, I cannot see HMRC agreeing to a CVA.
If our Hero is prepared to put enough cash into Rangers to survive long enough until the tax case result is in, and they win the tax case, there is a moderate chance of liquidation.
If they don’t have enough cash to surivive to the verdict, there is an excellent chance of liquidation.
If the lose the tax case, we’re going to need a bigger liquidiser.
leftclicktic, indeed.

Thanks for the reply.
You seem to a long and detailed history with the SNP.
Very interesting knowledge of the personalities involved.
Unfortunately you see, to have a bad case of what zoologists call – Water Buffalo Syndrome.
That is you cannot smell your own rancid stink – that is the SNP and it’s historical strand of anti-Catholicism.
It takes more than a few cosy chats with KO’B and a welcome to a head of state to shake of that particular stain on your political fellow travellers. It maybe less pronounced than it once was but recent legislation and Wee Eck’s desperation to be seen on the side of the TFOD suggest that it only lies just below the surface.
Regarding some of your specifics, a career as a comic awaits.
Wee Eck – master of all he surveys – I think not.
Only in a Scotland where the middle class media is constantly searching for a non Labour / non working class standard bearer to rid them of a political establishment they do not understand and would hate to be part of.
Consequently his timing has been perfect even if his talent and abilities are not quite up to what his own ego or the fluffers who surround him would have you believe.
Political souffle – lightweight, insubstantial and full of hot air.
Stopped clock – accurate twice in his political lifetime, useless at all other times.
Political Class of 87 – fourth behind AD / GG / TS.
How TS wishes he had never listened to Wee BD – how different things might have been.
As for Wee Eck’s triumph – fluke would be more like it.
45% vote on a 50% turnout – all on top of a flawed system.
Proportional representation I think not, political gambler getting lucky more like.
Bought and sold with a Busman’s gold.
Milli-E – Terrible campaign and no money.
Cleggy – Sold his soul to the right wing London establishment.
Trots + TS – the Children’s Crusade collapses at just the right moment.
Tories – Still toxic.
As an aside, the SNP are Tartan Tories.
SNP + Tory vote = Magic number.
GE’s – 70 till 2010 the correlation is uncanny.
150K votes less than GB in 2010.
250K votes less than TB in 97.
Says it all really.
Consequently please remove yourself from your political bubble and start to understand the real trends and undercurrents in Scottish politics and remove your head from the Tartan La – La land that you now inhabit.
If you need to get a primer on the issues the SNP face please watch events unfold as CG finds herself where she doesn’t want to be – an Employment Tribunal.

Now that brings back memories, I was there that day and in actual fact was standing very close to the guy who threw the canister.
The wind blew some of it back towards us and I was forced to jump over the perimeter fence at the side of the pitch next to the corner flag. We were then pelted with coins from the Celtic supporters who thought that we were casuals and involved in what had occured.
Thankfully an elderly gentleman recognised me and helped escort me back into the ‘Celtic End’ behind the goal.
Mental, absolutely mental!

Not posted in ages, lurk all the time, genuine thanks for the site Paul67.
Best game ever, for me, equal first Celtic 5 Sporting Lisbon 0, european game back in the 80’s I think, lost the 1st leg 2-0 but pumped them in the 2nd leg, 3-0 up at half time, in the jungle, atmosphere unbeatable. Also totally tremendous was the Martin O’Neil inspired 6-2 game against Rangers.
Worst game ever, again for me 2 candidates, Celtic v Rapid Vienna, the re-arranged game in Manchester, snyde journey down, snyde welcome, snyde game, snyde result, snyde journey back to Glasgow. Really bad too, black sunday v motherwell, all suited and booted ready for full day and night out in the town, home after the game, gas peeped.

Where is the focus of the TFOD in administration –
1) HMRC getting their money back?
2) TFOD folding and a NewCo being established?
My politics come before my football so …
I would want HMRC to get their money and EBTs banned for everyone.
Any thoughts yourself?
Paul – “bigger liquidiser” – TOP CLASS!
I wonder how much one of those costs?!

please dont get me wrong … it was more a comment on Stuart Armadale voice breaking than the minutiae of the content.
All roads lead back to Murray
And Murray will say it was the Tax Based bank that made him do it and he will be right and so it will come all the way back to the HMRC

Afternoon bhoys, cool, the sun is trying to come out but hun free as ever.
I have said many times that the financial side of things is not my forte, but I understand when someting is no right.
The admin men are supposed to have the creditors best interests at the fore, that being the case….
Why have no high earners at the club not had their contracts ripped up ?
Why are they honouring ST holders ?
There are more ways as well to reduce costs, but as yet they have reduced none, Why not ?
Someting stinks here,

Rangers pub – The fallen star(s)
I remember the smell of liminent on Bobby Lennox’s legs as he was warming up as a sub. I recall the great season when Charlie ran riot. I remember the keepie-uppie all round the Paradise pitch at half-time by one of our young stars.
A free pint for anybody who remembers who that was!
Exiled Tim – my own bet is they are trying to get through the weekend and a home game against Kilmarnock. After that all bets are off. Next week will be carnage in my own opinion.
As much side splitting fun as we have had this week I am almost certain that 7 days from now we may well be clogging up Accident and Emergency all over the world as Tims everywhere have to go in and get their sides stitched up from all the laughing.
