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!

    She said, I’ve had it comin’ to me

     

    But I wanted it that way

     

    I say that any love is good lovin’

     

    So I took what I could get mmh, mmh, mmh

     

    She looked at me with them brown eyes

     

     

    And said, You ain’t seen nothin’ yet

     

    B-B-B-Baby, you just ain’t seen n-n-n-nothin’ yet

     

    Here’s something that you’re never gonna forget

     

    B-B-B-Baby, you just ain’t seen n-n-n-nothin’ yet

     

    And you’re thinkin’ you ain’t been around, that’s right

     

     

    And now I’m feelin’ better

     

    Cause I found out for sure

     

    She took me to her doctor

     

    And he told me of a cure

     

    He said that any love is good love

     

    So I took what I could get

     

    Yes I took what I could get

     

    And then she looked at me with them big brown eyes

     

     

    And said, You ain’t seen nothin’ yet

     

    B-B-B-Baby, you just ain’t seen n-n-n-nothin’ yet

     

    Here’s something, here’s something that you’re never gonna forget, baby

     

    B-B-B-Baby, you know, you know, you know, you just ain’t seen nothin’ yet

     

    You need an education, got to go to school

     

     

    Any lovin’ is good lovin’

     

    So I took what I could get

     

    Yes I took what I could get

     

    And then, and then, and then she looked at me with them big brown eyes

     

     

    And said, You ain’t seen nothin’ yet

     

    Baby, you just ain’t seen n-n-n-nothin’ yet

    Not a bit.

     

     

    It pains me to think of the great celtic fans who have missed out on today. The ones who felt the rough edge of their cheating and not the justice in their demise.

     

     

    Hail Hail.

    One wee thought. Could this be a ploy by CW if the HMRC case were to go against them this week?

    Listen guys can you all simmer down. I know for a fact that the huns will never ever be allowed to go bust. It will quite simply not be allowed to happen. Dont any of you forget the huns are Scottish football.

    The “We Are The People” triumphalists, the self-proclaimed “Second Largest Scottish Institution” – they might not be dead yet but they’ve taken one hell of a blow – perhaps the first stage of a mortal blow.

     

     

    Whatever happens, things will never be the same again.

     

     

    It’s not just about the fitba either.

     

     

    Every person who has been at the wrong end – or has had a family member at the wrong end – of a “What school did you go to” type of question for the last hundred years or so, should be rejoicing right now.

     

     

    The Scottish Establishment has suffered a blow today, from which they will never recover in the sense that they will become something different.

     

     

    Ian Archer once said that they were a permanent embarrassment and an occasional disgrace.

     

     

    Well the embarrassment felt by their own followers – right now, today, no matter how much expected it may have been – will be MONUMENTAL.

  20. Paul67,

     

    Take a bow mate.

     

    You did’nt break this story hours, days weeks or even months before theMSM, it was years and yet they only picked up on it when the big tax case doomed their club.

     

    Bottle of bubbly in the fridge.

     

    To paraphrase,” whatever part of Celtic I have to loose”

     

    Having a party tonight.

     

     

    You can bum about your great defenders, sing and shout about your no surrender.

     

    Let me give you this wee tip, we’ll be there for the League and the Cup,

     

    Rangers, bye bye.

    **** off ya mutant

  24. Paul67 or anyone,

     

     

    I real terms what does this mean?

     

     

    Isn’t it the case they go into Admin, take the 10pt hit, come out they other end debt free (well paying x amount in the £) with a list of creditors wondering where their money is?

     

     

    What happens to the tax case if it goes against rangers?

  25. Aberdeen, Hibs, Dundee united. Time to step up to the plate and be all you can be….all that you have been before

  26. Joe Filippis Haircut on

    To all the Poundland teams fans how did you get into this position ? Well you were carried along by Sir Minty Murray than man who would spend a tenner for every fiver Celtic spent but what he didnt tell you was it was tax payers money he was spending.Remember well Orcs the wonderfull famous day he spent 12 Million pounds on a flop called Flo that day the writing was on the wall for your infamous club. Sir Minty run the ship aground and knew he had to bail out so he put the Poundland team up for sale but could find no buyers why I ask was that ? well there were to many skeletons in to many cupboards.Now after awhile along came a Whyte knight without a White horse his background to say the least was cloudy and he was known as a stripper( not one you would want to watch ) but one you need to watch and he and Sir Minty had a suckulent lunch of tender lamb washed down with many glasses of claret and Sir Minty agree to sell the infamouse club for a pound no doubt. Sir Minty wanted out before the proverbial s— hit the fan.Now the new leader used monies from your season ticket sales not this year but four years hence worth the question must be asked did he expect to be around in four years time ? one must wonder.Now being in Administration is not the end it will go one of two ways the Administrator may be able to keep your club going and find a buyer to take over but dont bet your season ticket on it it is more likely your club will go into complete insolvency H.H.
