For three months a charade took place, where Craig Whyte – who is and will remain owner of Rangers until they are finally ‘flushed away’, Duff and Phelps, The Blue Knight(s), Bill Miller, Charles Green, several members of the accountancy profession who should have known better, and some of the Fourth Estate, who clearly didn’t know better, all told you Rangers were likely to achieve a CVA.
As we (and several others) told you, a CVA was never, ever, going to be accepted by HMRC. A cursory glance at the HMRC web site would confirm that. Once Alex Salmond had his wings clipped, that debate was over.
The charade was a distraction. There are many other distractions available today and they will multiply in the days to come, but I reckon if you’re looking for the critical path on this one you should keep an eye on Lord Carloway. The chair of the SFA Appellate Panel is worth listening out for. Say his name in hushed tones, better still, abbreviate. Even the mention of LC will cause anxiety and distress, for some.

Yes, and fools seldom differ as they say.
sign John Daly for that bloke bhoy….
Ten to go including injury time will tell us a lot about Thomson. Reverting to type, he has a controversial late decision in him.

One can have an opinion … But not one like that :-))
Could be a not bad last 10 minutes here.
That Wishart statement on the PFA site:
‘The players however are becoming increasingly unhappy at having to operate in an information vacuum whilst their futures are portrayed by others as being a fait accompli with no proper communication and consultation taking place.
I’m not surprised they’re unhappy. As Huns I say hell mend ’em, but if I could look at it objectively I’d be very angry in their place. It’s noticeable that we’ve heard virtually nothing from the players in the whole 4 months this circus has been in town. Maybe that means Wishart, agents and lawyers are doing a good job advising them.
I’d be far less likely to consider staying given Green’s statements assuming some kind of ownership of them. Just as he p**ed off HMRC, he’s alienating his potential workforce.

If only the players had someone to speak on their behalf. A players’ union maybe? Has anyone suggested that to Fraser??
nice strike

Aye, one of the defenders should just run out of the wall and smack the ball right in there – well worth the Yellow card !

A poor man’s Tommy Johnson!
Right, as usual loads of wee jobs to do in the 50 minutes between games. It’s no easy being an armchair football fan! Have fun everyone and be nice to one another.

Couldn’t disagree with you more.
So you are an expert and ordinary folk such as the Green Brigade have “superficial” knowledge. How can you know that? how many of them have you met? Methinks you think you are right because you know you are.
Superficial CSC
any way to kill the idea that a newco will inherit the oldco’s history of titles etc
Watch out guys, we’re about to be pestered for millions.
THIS is at the end of a statement from the Rankers (IL) Supporters Trust (as far as I could throw them)
“….We are working with financial and legal advisers to finalise the details of these plans and will be sharing them with the administrators and any potential new owners, in the near future. These plans may well include calling in the pledges made by thousands of supporters to the SaveRangers website.”
Yippee,some points on the predictor(for a change)
Dear Mr. Hately
I am moving onto Becks and can be described to be in a state of euphria not out of schadenfreude but out of a sense of justice. The trophies just didn’t stack up.
I respect your footballing talents and wish you all the best in you future as a journalist.

I’m on the Kano Predictor, went 2-1 Portugal, a point anyway. However, I have a wee predictor going with LB Jnr., 13 years-old and knows nothing about football, he predicted 3-2 Portugal…Mmmm. Todate he is two points clear…winner takes all, there is money on it. I will refrain from saying how much but it was more than what Whyte and Green paid when they bought RFC (IL).
Keep the Faith!
Hail Hail!
Just managed to put the multi-gym together, put the pool table up, make the supper then came into the living room to see the tail end of the Portugal-Denmark game- the game of the tournament Carragher said! How wrong was I? 3 bloody 2. Five goals AND Ronaldo beeling fae missing they sitters! Now I’ll sit down, knackered, with an ice cold cider to watch the Germany-Holland game…Jonah here will guarantee it’s guff.

Female dutch fans taking the whole ‘orange’ thing a bit far with the old spray tans!
Houl Yer Wheesht….
I do not like their politics in general…and do not think they should be allocated a section of the stadium….if they persist in taking political stances which divide the Celtic Community…they don’t speak for me, or for many others..
They need to drop the adolescent politics …and concentrate on supporting the team…in an acceptable manner..
Or take a hike….
You’re Welcome….
I wish all the huns saying they should hit scottish football by dropping to the 3rd
division should lobby Mr Green and just bloody go
they still don’t get it do they….any hun who says lets take the hit and go down to the 3rd division always has to add the ……see how they manage without us rubbish
