Speak his name in hushed tones

1566

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.

  1. Spare a thought today for Peat ,Dallas and the rest of the masonic brotherhood,

     

    for all your cheating was in vain.

    Many thanks for putting up the article

     

     

    It reads to me as though Sleekit Sally wants out, and with the help of a discredited ‘journalist’, has concocted a wee cover story to try and keep face

     

     

    Nae luck Sleekit.

     

     

    YOU WALKED AWAY

  3. Aberdeen confirm NO vote for Newclub.

     

     

    Victory for Aberdeen FC fans over newco Rangers

     

    Board listen to supporters

     

     

    ABERDEEN FC today confirmed they will put “sporting integrity” first when they vote on whether to keep Rangers in the SPL.

     

     

    The Evening Express yesterday reported Aberdeen fans were ready to revolt if their club backed any bid to keep a newco Gers in the top flight.

     

     

    Aberdeen FC chief executive Duncan Fraser has responded by admitting the views of their fans have been taken on board.

    Can Ally no’ take Campbello with him on his trek?

     

     

    THAT would give us the perfect end to the week.

  7. thomthethim CQN (genuine) Badge Wearer on

    It looks like today’s fawning Epitaph For Ally article signals the end of their Newclub for the SPL hopes.

     

     

    The drivel is aimed at derailing Green, which will plunge them into further chaos.

  8. ….the photocall for the Binman’s dramatic retreat from The Edmiston Folly will be a choreographed piece of theatre designed to inflame the succulent bams……..

     

     

    expect coverage a la OJ – only with added hun hyperbole…………

     

     

    Ally Lamont and Chic will be excused duty on compassionate grounds……..

     

    Jim “red White and blue” has been ‘training’ for this moment his whole life……..

    We’ll light the sky

     

    When Rangers die

     

    Then the sky will be red

     

    cos rangers are dead

     

     

    Friday 15/06/2012 @ 22.00 hrs “Light the Lanterns!”

  11. Mark Dingbat on Snyde there ranting about how the fans are suffering. He stated that all Rangers fans would want to help any Scottish club going into administration/liduidation. Really? Oh yes I remember back in 94 you were all rushing to help Celtic(not that we would have wanted one thin dime off of that lot). I couldn’t envisage any hun wanting to help out Aberdeen as they hate them. Hibs? wouldn’t think so. Who is that baffoon trying to kid? They can’t even help themselves never mind any other SPL Club!

    He is camped outside ‘Arrys waiting on an exclusive for SSN.

     

     

    I don’t think I will ever forget him screaming on SSN a few weeks back that the news every Rangers fan was waiting for was about to be broken (SSN understands of course….)

     

     

    No liquidation.

     

     

    Priceless

    Meeting to confirm rejection of CVA and liquidation of Rangers FC PLC took nine minutes.

     

     

    Nine minutes, hahahaha, I’m going to fall off my chair soon…

     

     

    9 minutes…

  15. I am NL in NZ Tauranga on

  16. 'crushed nuts?' 'Naw, Layringitis!' on

    Ally gave his car keys back yesterday….got a lift after his ‘meeting’ with green.

     

    Bet he feels good about urging players to turn down offers and accepting ‘redundancy-lite’ contracts.

     

    Cee lo may have expressed his disappointment at the get ouuta dodge clause.

     

    He does do waddlin’ away!!!!!

     

    Maybe he’s off to arry’s office.

    One #Rangers debenture holder said to me as he emerged ‘the club is gone.’

     

     

    That’s it I’m on the floor…

  18. tomthelennytim on

    Hehehe – stupid ex huns.

     

    Didn’t think I could get through today with this hangover – I was wrong.

     

    Not taking bets on tomorrow though.

    I don’t know whether to laugh or cry, absolutely momentous day. I now have an inkling as to how the South African people felt the day Apartheid was abolished.

    Clark said full results of vote would be published in due course, there were three rejections and three abstentions in meeting.

     

     

    what about the rest of the creditors?
