After 11 months of innuendo and unanswered questions the Sun today publish confirmation that Charles Green was a frontman for Craig Whyte. The news will be a bombshell to many but few in the Celtic online community will be surprised.
The Sun today report that Craig Whyte and partner, Aiden Earley, are majority shareholders in Sevco 5088 Ltd, the company which bought Ibrox, Murray Park and other assets from Rangers’ administrators’ Duff and Phelps.
They also claim Charles Green subsequently transferred Sevco 5088’s assets into Sevco Scotland Ltd, which Whyte said was done without his permission. Green was given considerable opportunity to respond to the claims but despite pages of comment does not deny the central claim that Whyte and Earley were majority shareholders in the company which purchased assets from Duff and Phelps. The rest of the story amounts to little more than gratuitous detail.
Where does this leave things?
Whyte’s QC has started legal action, seeking control of Ibrox and other assets.
Duff and Phelps (presumably unknowingly) discretely sold Rangers assets to the man who appointed them and who is currently subject to an investigation into the collapse of the club. Rangers’ liquidators, BDO, can cancel the sale of assets and claim them for creditors if they believe it was not conducted in an appropriate manner – and this is anything but appropriate.
When Sevco 5088 Ltd was negotiating with the SFA Green assured the SFA that Whyte was not part of his consortium. This was a condition of the Newco being granted associate membership. The SFA are now duty bound to investigate (although with president Campbell Ogilvie in place make no assumptions here).
What has any of this to do with St Mirren, you may ask?
St Mirren chairman, Stewart Gilmour, appears to have made a pact with Charles Green, who I hear has given Green his assurance that he will vote against league reconstruction plans, which the SPL are due to vote on 15 April.
Questions like who owns Ibrox, whether the Newco is a legitimate associate membership of the SFA, whether BDO will declare the sale to Sevco 5088 void, in the event this circus makes it to next season, whether anyone will buy tickets to the shambles, all remain unanswered….
…but Stewart Gilmour is making plans with Charles Green. St Mirren fans should be outraged. Mr Gilmour should be careful who he does deals with.[calameo code=0003901714557cf2d2048 lang=en page=134 hidelinks=1 width=100% height=500]

Glad the stings were pulled this morning but a bit surprised any bees or wasps around in EK at this time of year.
Watch out for the two legged versions of the latter this morning.
Any footage of Ross Kemp gettin a tankin off his burd?
Not on the list,running late,but hope to be there.
FP+1.
On Motherwell being gubbed I would not bet on it. McFadden gives them something that improves their overall game.

Whither the cash strapped scrofulous hillbillies the day
>>>>>>>>>>>
If scrofolousness (S) is calculated at an assumed 1 atmosphere, 15°C(T), where Delusional nutcases (Dn), alcoholic journalists (Aj), Laptop Loyalists (LL), then:
S= Dn -£22M×(Aj×LL)÷Dn
Scrofolousness is measured in Jakies; √scrofolousness = huns
Good luck to the demonstrators today, Don’t let them either wind you up or grind you down :)
Afternoon bhoys from a sun drenched mountain valley.
Good luck to all going to the demo today, stay safe.
Will be there in spirit, and watching on the web cam.

The Novation thing is of great interest .
It has always been a favorite with those who like to make money from selling futures. .
Scratch my back now and I’ll give you a great scratch later CSC —-Way down south.

I think that challs set a precedent for lying to con someone. .. hard to see how a tribunal would rule against fransan
I just realised I said “my city” when I haven’t lived in Glasgow for years.
You can take the bhoy out of Glasgow…….
I’ll always be a Glaswegian, and everyone perceives me as such.
Extraordinarily proud of my heritage, and the big part youse have had in reinforcingly restoring it.
HH!
‘crushed nuts?’ ‘Naw, Layringitis!’ @ 11.01

Before I head out to town, a quick tip re the National.
If in the Aintree restaurant, DO NOT order the SeaBass unless you wish to become embroiled in the horsemeat scandal

Re; Ross Kemp..
I Totally disagree with You..and i wish Scottish Celebrities would Highlight the Problem..
Ross Kemp is Not Louis Therox..But Hey he Tries..He Did NOT in any Way Slag Glasgow he Slagged Local Government/Authorities….
This Problem is in Nearly every Westernised City i have ever been to..
When this wa hown in the UK..I Read on FB the Outrage that he Used Glasgow..Jeezo..Iwish there were More People like Him in London..
For the Record..I Don’t like his Docos..it was the Subject Matter that Made me Watch it..

Just remember – if you get huckled by plod, only tell them your name and senior citizen bus pass number.
Stay safe – CQN could be an awfully lonely place this afternoon.
Oh, I saw a sight this morning I haven’t seen since I was a wee bhoy: a man doffed his cap as he passed the chapel. Took me back. But did the soul good too.
Drouthys doing a roaring trade. Playing guess the cqner
Who’s putting the Celtic tammy on Wellington’s napper!
Would love to be at FAC demo, stuck in McDonalds Darling Harbour. Missing my beloved Celtic. COYBIG. Hx2.

Today’s game will be like a throwback to the ’80’s, with the crowd eagerly awaiting news of another game to see if Celtic are to be crowned champions, although smart phones having replaced the tranny.
Not exactly Love St. ’86 I know, but I’m looking forward to news of St. Mirrens winning goal, scored with 3 minutes to go filtering around Celtic Park.
Stay safe,Celts.
Change the Law – Don’t break the Law.
