Strathclyde Police were Rangers first creditor to ask for a payment guarantee from Rangers’ newly appointed administrator, saying, “Strathclyde Police is a public body and has a duty to make sure public resources are used appropriately. We are seeking an urgent meeting with the administrators to ensure that any payment for policing costs at future Rangers games is guaranteed.
“Until we have such a guarantee we would not be in a position to commit public resources to policing an event unless we had a reassurance that our costs would be met.”
Before the administrator is able to allow the scheduled game against Kilmarnock on Saturday to proceed he would need to guarantee payments for all services employed and goods used, casting considerable doubt on the game proceeding. The administrator is liable for any expenses he incurs from now which cannot be paid by the club.
Funds will need to be found for turnstile and security staff, while footballers may be asked to play for free.

Chic youngs emotional uninformed unstable witterings are for what purpose exactly ?
Whit, have St. Mirren got a problem?
Listening to SSB for 1st time since Jimmy sanderson I think.
Wish to fook they’d stop saying it’s bad for Scottish football. I want them to say WHY it’s bad.
I do realise their hurting for their jobs, but I care not a jot. Not a decent journo between them all.
I’m now on my 33rd lemon and and I still can’t shift this :)))))))))))))
Btw their now saying Paul Murray gonna ask the admin guys how much to buy the club!!
WTF
brimmer
This is the first time i have ever listened to the Clyde phone-in. And the last. Jesus – it’s embarrassing. It’s like listening to not-very-subtle satire.
No exitement, this is the most exited I have been all year…huns are and will always be delusional.
Hail Hail

I’m feeling it is such a shame that the season only has 12 games to go.
I’m looking at a league win of around the 26-30 point mark.
Anyone care to comment?
genuine question
If the last rfc accounts had a balance sheet value in excess of £125m surely liquidation would produce more than £14-18m as being touted? Or am I missing something?
Brass necked Murray heaping the blame on to Craig Whyte as if everything was perfect when he left the club.Was it not the Brass necked big talking gub who was the Chairman who put the club into the position that the revenue took them to court ? I think pot and black spring to mind if the poundland mob are found guilty in there tax case Murray should be prosecuted just like you or I would be for tax evasion. We now are seeing the death of Rangers as we know them and the hyenas fighting each other over the bones.H.H.
WHY WAS CHEATING ALL OTHER SPL CLUBS BAD FOR SCOTTISH FOOTBALL…..CELTIC SHOULD TAKE HUNS TO COURT FOR LOST REVENUE….WAS IT NOT BACK IN 2003 & 2005 THE SPL WINNER GETS INTO CHAMPIONS LEAGUE AUTOMATICALLY GIVE 10-15 MILLION GUARANTEED……PLEASE SOMEBODY TAKE A LOOK….
Hail Hail

Classic denial syndrome and avoiding the truth at all costs.
Q. Why are the huns in administration?
Q. Do you think they should be allowed to continue as if they had just forgot to pay the paperbhoy?
A, aye well eh ah’m no an expurt but fumble mumble furra good of ra gemme know wat ah mean n nat..
Holy Ghod they deserve all they get with spokesmen like these duffers..
Any enlightened CQN’rs know what difference Paul Murray buy the Huns from the administrators would make?
paul murray wants to buy the club . As i thought MINTY MURRAY,S making an appearance AGAIN. I hope our bhoys have all the angles covered.
SORRY NOT BAD FOR SCOTTISH FOOTBALL – PREVIOUS POST

Had to look it up to be sure, previous poster was correct though, we dont qualify for the group stage, we’ll enter in the 3rd qualifying phase as Scotland are ranked 15th. Only the top 12 nations qualify for the group stage automatically. So 3rd qualifier and play-off to negotiate before the group stages.

Paul Murray will be told that any involvement with a future Rangers is illegal just due to the wee tax case only.
Guys, just to be clear Paul Murray is no relation to SDM (Minty Moonbeams/ Tax Swindler/ Bullshitter).

on Neil Lennon:
The football writer Graham Spiers has been observing Lennon the player and Lennon the manager for 10 years. “Look, I’m a huge admirer of this man,” he said. “But I wouldn’t dismiss the notion that he brings some of his troubles down upon his own head. Yes, he does tick every box in the Celtic, Catholic Irish narrative and that elicits a bigoted response from some people. But this only explains part of it. He is always on the front foot and he never retreats when others have found it more prudent to do so.
Well, Britney, your mob have most certainly brought it all on themselves and whilst Neil never retreats, it would appear your mob have run that white flag up the pole.
Get it **censored** roond ye.
What is all this media boll***s about Celtic fans not wanting to go to Paradise and watch our team winning the league easily?
Aye, ah would!
I sat there while the Huns were 3 up at Killie before we kicked off and cheered Lenny and the bhoys at the end of a league losing season. It’s 4 years since I enjoyed us winning the league. Ah don’t care if the Huns are bust.
Ah canny wait ’til we win the league. Huns in administration are now 14 points behind. we would have pumped them anyway this year.

i think the whole thing stinks of corruption………………..”corruption wins”
Why am I getting worried incase liquidation doesn’t happen?
Anybody got a contact with PL, in a show of solidarity for Celtic next season I’d like to pay for next seasons ST NOW, are there any kindred spirits out there?

Remember when David Murray was in charge of the huns and they had debts to the bank? Turns out those were the good old days for them.
If a group of us had sat down and tried to devise a way to make things worse for them we could not have come up with a better plan than the one Craig Whyte has been carrying out so beautifully.

I would imagine McGregor would be 1st into the office to renegogiate his contract with a PS of ‘Oh, btw, were selling you in the summer’ then just work the way down the list of sellable players after that starting with Davis
Anyone got a link to Neil Doncasters statement?
MWD
James on real radio called in to say that they would only lose the league because of the taxman and that he wouldn’t be putting another penny into gers when Whyte is there ! Belter !!!
