This is a dead football club

899

We are five days away from the end of the season, Duff and Phelps have spent 10 weeks trying to solicit an offer for the assets of the company and the only one they were in a position to consider has now been withdrawn.

The stadium remains in Craig Whyte’s hands.

The SPL has not offered a place in the league.

The players can choose to become free agents on Sunday.

Duff and Phelps have no money to pay anyone or anything after 31 May.

Are you getting the picture?

Whatever ‘good news’ Duff and Phelps come out with later, or ‘Rangers to benefit from Miller withdrawal’ you read about tomorrow, not one piece of positive news has gone Rangers way in weeks.

This is a dead football club. If there was an accountancy term beyond liquidation, perhaps uber-liquidation, they would be uber-liquidated (there’s not, but if this gets any worse the English language will need some re-work).

Yesterday’s delay was the most complete confirmation possible, for anyone still harbouring doubt, today’s message from Miller should be no surprise to Celtic Quick News readers.

Miller’s parting shot:

“After hearing the message from Rangers supporters and fans loud and clear (“Yank go home!”), I notified the administrators today that I have withdrawn my bid for Rangers”.

…has the makings of a topic for a business doctorate, if anyone is looking for one.  I’d elaborate but reckon we’re all a little carried away at the moment for serious debate.

The histrionics since yesterday and, if you don’t mind me saying, lack of appreciation of these historic times, would dishonour teenage girls (no offense teenage girls).

Please stop with all the silliness, indignation and faux trauma.  Some football supporters have real issues to worry about.

  1. Paddy Gallagher on

    RANGERS FOOTBALL CLUB tattoos removed for only a pound.

     

    Guaranteed total removal with no stains, yes only ONE POUND!!

  2. Mark Dingwall organises a hate campaign against the only guy Duff&Duffer can deal with so his beloved Blue Knights can move in.

     

     

    They have walked away also.

    He will probably blame Kafflik skools.

  3. Total Bear-on-Bear action on FF.

    What a daft tool Bill Miller is. Rangers – as hopeless and undignified as this club now looks – are better off without him. Waste of space.

     

     

    A so-called journalist referring to a man as a daft tool just because he realised in 5 days what MSM haven’t managed in years?????

  5. Saint Stivs on

    Toto. Get back fae that curtain.

  6. jinkyredstar cuts it back for Neil Lennon on

    Doncaster on shortbread adopting a “we won’t talk until a deal is in place” pose! Aye right! This is the guy who “allegedly” gave assurances to Miller and told us all the resurrection was commonplace- another set of completely contradictory narratives in this tale of shame for Scottish Football and the woefull, quite pathetic, Scottish media – who will by tomorrow morning produce a new dawn from some incredible source.

     

     

    My preferred term for their demise is – Hunnialiation!

    Bill Miller adviser on #Rangers: “It would take a fairly large amount of money to keep it from dying.”

  8. sparkleghirl

     

     

    Speirs is saying that only because Miller made the MSM look like fools.

     

     

    Wonder if the MSM will be calling him a tycoon, or a captain of industry tomorrow.

     

     

    Bill Miller = MSMskelper

  9. When will the 10 page spreads about Murray finally hit the news-stands?

  12. Mr X loves having a "fly kick" on

    Loving the silence from Agent Whyte. A man with ice in his veins, and a cold, steely eye on the prize.

     

     

    Not long now, Craig. Not long now.

     

     

    Tick tock, tick tock…..

  13. !!Bada Bing!! on

    Drowning Rangers fan offered help by man in lifeboat. Hears American accent. Tells him to f<$£ off. Drowns.

  14. Hail! Hail!

     

     

    Not sure I can take any more of this. It’s just brilliant

  15. You better get a whole bloody server farm set up for the day they liquidate, Paul.

     

     

    Someone should have sent Miller the links to a few Celtic sites. We could have told him how skint the huns are and what it would take to save them.

  16. JimmyQuinnsBits on

    Hearing one of the 3 bids is a Mr Luke Snofunny from the Vatican – a second from his brother Stoapit

  17. The afghani and iraq folk are in awe of rangers tonight.These people have been trying to get rid of the Yanks for years, the huns managed it in 4 days!!
