Rangers in administration without tax case

1363

There are not words powerful enough to describe today’s news.  The English language is insufficient and I have no Greek or Latin.  Rangers Football Club have today asked the Court of Session to appoint an administrator, unable to service their creditors.  The freight train of their tax tribunal has yet to hit, these events relate exclusively to how the club has operated in other areas.

Scottish Premier League rules state that clubs are deducted 10 points on going into administration, which will give Celtic a 14 point lead at the top of the table once in effect.

This is a day we have predicted will come for over three years.  It has been inevitable for that long.  Now the really interesting events will happen.

We don’t need no stinkin’ Rangers.

Up the Celts!

  1. Bit of a JFK moment. I was in work talking to a colleague when he got a text through telling him that Rangers had signalled intention to enter administration. The message told him to check STV news, so we did. I then experienced the guilty pleasure of telling a hun pal the news, who said, sneeringly, “aye sure, what source is that?” so I showed him his club’s media partner’s website…

    No history

    No old firm (because old wouldn’t exist in newco town)

     

     

    I for one hope they go down that route, that way their death will be like watching every car crash reality tv show rolled into one.

  7. What joy,

     

    and there is no-one to save them, like us poor wee Celts did, when we were in the same boat.

     

    Die hun die!

     

    You didn’t have the cojones when you needed them.

     

    You were never the people, you saps!

     

    It will only get worse, or better. I know where my money’s going…

    Maybe you’ve benefitted from a wise counsellor over recent years?

     

     

    Who could that be? Hmmmmm.

    Mixed emotions tonight. Initial sheer joy has been tempered by remembering loved ones no longer with us who could only dream of a day like this. The ones who had a harder struggle than us. The ones who told us and our fathers about what Celtic stands for. The ones who seen through the sham of a football club dressed up as no more than a symbolic vehicle for sectarianism.

     

     

    Well said, just some of the same thoughts I was having and beautifuly put.

     

     

    This still has a long way to go and with a lot more to be revealed. Isn’t it strange that the media still have not grasped that

     

    what Rakers have done was wrong hmmmmmm.

     

     

    No to Newco

    And to think that they got into this mess because they could not bear the idea that we won the European cup and 9 titles in a row. They tried to buy parity and ended up cutting their own throats. That’s where blind, jealous hatred gets you. TeeHeeHee

    “There will, no doubt, be people – some of them who presided over the club in past years – who will contend that the steps we are announcing today are unnecessary.

     

     

    All I would say to these people is that if they want to step up to the plate and invest money in Rangers to avoid a restructuring of the business, then I would be most willing to talk to them.”

  18. Any body find this guy CHE mentions, plenty Sean Carrs come up but jelly????????
