Sevco 5088 claim ownership to Rangers Int assets

970

There’s those words, “prima facie” again.  “After examination of the evidence, Leading Counsel’s advice is that there is a prima facie case to answer”, read a stock market statement this morning by Worthington Group PLC, after the Leading Counsel “who is also a Deputy High Court Judge”, examined the case of their subsidiary, Sevco 5088 Ltd’s claim for the business and assets of Rangers International Football Club PLC.

“It is the position of Sevco 5088 Ltd that it is the rightful owner of the business and those assets”.

As revealed in the document below, Companies House now record Craig Whyte and Aiden Earley as directors of Sevco 5088 Ltd, alongside Charles Green.

The court will examine if Mr Green acted appropriately when he removed the entitlement of Sevco 5088 to acquire the assets of Rangers FC (in liquidation) and assigned them to Sevco Scotland (now renamed and trading as a subsidiary Rangers International FC PLC.

Rangers International stand accused of not owning the business they operate.

Subsequent to the entitlement to buy Rangers FC’s assets being passed to Sevco Scotland, Mr Green became the beneficial owner of £4m worth of Rangers’ shares at a cost of £40,000.  Rangers International then raised £22m through an Initial Public Offering on the AIM market and the company became owners of a business worth tens of millions of pounds.

The allegation that Duff and Phelps disposed of Rangers assets to a company controlled by Rangers owner will be of interest to liquidators, BDO, who are likely to ask Lord Hodge for an opinion on behalf of creditors.

I am sure Rangers International FC PLC will strenuously deny they inappropriately acquired assets of Rangers.  They will also take steps to immediately assure Cenkos, the nominated advisors of their IPO, that investors money is safe and the IPO was appropriately handled.

They will, at the same time, assure Cenkos that these allegations were not made known to Sevco Scotland prior to the IPO, otherwise potential investors would have been alerted.

These are the most serious allegations leveled in the entire episode of the Rangers group of clubs. The first question for the independent inquiry setup by Rangers International should be ‘What the hell have the non-execs been doing all these months?’

The cheerleaders for Mr Whyte and Mr Green have done enormous damage.

  2. The Moon Bhoys on

    See Donald Findlay has come out and sad that this whole mess is because rangers were kicked out of the SPL and dumped into div 3, wow, who would have thunk it.

     

     

    Reminiscent of the old adage (joseff gobells?) If you repeat a lie often enough eventually people will accept it as the truth – “its the same club” being a recent example.

    I have never met you in person though I feel I know you so well. You are an inspiration to me and you’re strength of character is way in excess of anything I have.

     

     

    You’re in my prayers. Take care.

    tickets will probably go to those who attended semi final and investers seats first I would imagine

  7. TET,

     

     

    I read that his ma created the hereditory title of Baronet for his da, so that he could be called a Cur, no, sorry , a Sir.

     

     

    Got your reply. Good advice.

     

     

    When I was over in Scotland last year, I hired an automatic. It was great for driving through the dog’s breakfast that is downtown Edinburgh.

    There’s a total blurt on it…. looks like a zombie

    Was told the same as you by the locals but took a chance and got away with it.

     

     

     

    Looking at stadium plan it appears our part timers are staying at home still a lot of areas with tickets available, it would be disappointing if we can’t get well over the 50k mark

  10. Tet

     

     

    The baronet title makes him a life peer at the lords.

     

    It can’t be handed down.

     

    Time they got shot of the lot of them.

  11. TET

     

     

    From wiki again the picture gets muddy as to whether he is in or out of the peerage:-

     

     

    “A baronetcy is the only hereditary honour which is not a peerage. A baronet is styled “Sir” like a knight (or “Dame” for a baronetess), but ranks above all knighthoods except for the Order of the Garter and, in Scotland, the Order of the Thistle. A baronetcy is not a knighthood and the recipient does not receive an accolade.”

     

     

    I do note that he only scraped 3 O levels despite his advantages. And then we made his mammy Education Secretary. Go Figure!

    Donald Findlay didn’t fluff his lines then.

     

    %%%%%%%%%

     

    Donald joins a long line of ‘telt yees!’ In attributing sevco’s demise to everyone else. His buffoonery masks the pain he feels in seeing the institution he loved being reduced to going cap in hand to nobodies in order to try and wring a few extra bomb out of the stupider sevcovians.

     

    The ridiculously-bearded one probably burns with righteous indignation at the sight of a once gloriously dignified institution being fronted by a has-been scribbler and a self confessed utterer of racist epithets! He must yearn for the days when David Murray was the bringer of certainty in an unsure world, when Tim knew his place and when you could sing about being up to your knees in someone’s blood one day and mitigate for a miscreant accused of serious assault the next!

     

    Poor Donald! He probably sees the day they changed the signing policy as the beginning of the end, O temporary o mores, as a better lawyer once said.

  14. It’s so hard talking to complete idiots.

     

     

    Brits who are a stupid as the sevconians, maggie was the greatest, and they are so easy to wind up, can’t reason with them.

     

     

    I said that peoples lifes had been ripped apart by the pit closures, one came back with, they should have taken a leaf out of the Jews book, and built a new life for themselfs.

     

     

    Stupid people.

     

     

    Anways, have a quality post for them for the aniversary of Bobby’s death, Mrs TET has written it, it will really get them going.

    Two statements from Paul that I have 100% confidence in .

     

    Anything else and our game is finished, its is seriously ill just now but ANY attempt to give CHAOS fc a leg up would be the end.

     

     

    “Some people have a belief that there will now be an invitation-only SPL II with Newco being invited. I can tell you with absolute certainty this will not happen. There will be no Newco in the second tier of Scottish football next season”.

     

     

    “It’s too late to salvage Newco. Invitations to a newly formed second tier are a fantasy, but you can set your watch on a forthcoming media campaign backing the idea. We shall not be moved”.

     

    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

     

    Encouraging as Paul’s sentimemts are I think the SFA must recognise that any attempt to bring about reconstruction HAS to be separated from the idea that it represents an opportunity to give The Rangers a leg up.

     

     

    To that end the SFA should add to their statement saying

     

     

    ” Because of the discord the idea of a quicket return to the top tier by any other means than sportring merit by The Rangers is causing the reconstruction debate, and in the interests of building solid sustainable foundations from which all clubs can move, the SFA and league(s) agree that as a matter of principle, whatever construct emerges, The Rangers cannot enter the top tier other than by the sporting merit route any earlier than if there were no reconstruction and assuming straight promotions, this would be season 2016/17 at the earliest.”

     

     

    Such a statement would at a stroke take the discord out of the debate and silence the msm whose motives are as self interested as all the clubs involved.

     

     

    Then and only then can the SFA get involved.
