None of you will be surprised at today’s opinion from the Court of Session in Edinburgh that Rangers’ deal with Ticketus cannot be set aside, despite some absolutely pitiful reporting to the contrary. It’s fine to get things wrong every now and then, we all get Duff information on occasion, but please….
It’s worth recording, Ticketus may only have paid £20m + vat but the tickets they own are worth in the region of £40m. High risk investments require a high return.
Rangers’ administrators argued that the deal inhibited their ability to rescue the company but the heroic Blue Knights submitted a bid accommodating Ticketus, undermining the administrators’ argument. If only the Blue Knights were in a position to strike a deal with Craig Whyte they could be regarded as helping the situation instead of being hapless fools.
Next up is HMRC, who have not capitulated and agreed to accept a few pennies in the pound. They have not agreed to accept anything less than all monies owed. Soon after that we will hear that no court has been able to set aside Craig Whyte’s security over Ibrox. The most underappreciated man no longer in Scotland remains the only person with a reasonable chance of phoenix-ing Rangers.
The first 26,000 (approx.) tickets sold to each Rangers game for the next three years are owned by Ticketus. In the event a phoenix occurs, Rangers will have to revert back to budgets from their glory days of the 1950s – we will soon be told this is a great omen.
If you are going to Ibrox on Sunday, take care and enjoy your visit. Take photographs of the occasion and send them in, we’ll perhaps use them on a future edition of CQN Magazine. It may prove to be the end of an era.

Not unless by some miracle a drop of gold dust lands on the doorstep.
All usual avenues for tickets have struggled to get tickets even for themselves.
Not sure but could be corporates have dipped their hands into the ‘ballot’ before it went live and gave them out to mates..
Did you find it ok getting a brief yourself?
Third place is an all-time high for me. It won’t last, but while it does …

My thoughts exactly. His brother, who played for the huns, did a bit of coaching at our school. Seemed a decent guy.
TGSC,

Oh splendid, I also forgot to enter Viduka!!
Man, the Schubert thing on Radio 3.
Don’t want to give them any ideas, but I would pay the licence fee just for Radio 3.
Sorry, never done quiz
But have a picture of Andy Paton in my head with Hull City top
I’ll not interrupt no more!
Quiz is too intense, hail hail amigos

Guy who runs the bus I was on last week said he had a ticket but didnt know if he would go. Reckoned the boats will have a poisoned atmosphere way beyond the usual and they will be scouting for potential tims – or passengers not in colours!
Grow a set of balls was the response.
No better place to be on this earth than greyskull on Sunday – regardless of how you get to and from it.

Tom McAdam (signed as a centre forward and scored 13 goals, before being converted into a centre half in later seasons)

Stick around!

I agree – stewards enquiry!
I know he was the top scorer vs the huns before Henke but wasnt he a centre half just lethal in the air from set pieces (or was that his hun brother?)
EWO
Yes I’d agree but I’m sure you knew that :-)
Spoke to Sean at Hampden on Sunday, he was desperate for one.
