Ticketus secure their £40m of tickets

1467
By on CQN BLOG & Comments

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.

If you’ve not read the article below, about one of Jinky’s great performances, do so now.

    For the game on Sunday I would pick the players on height (or height/weight ratio). The game will be a battle! So here is my choices.

     

    Forster

     

    Lustig Rogne Mulgrew ledley

     

    Brown Ki Wanyama Commons (Adds weight!) Samaras

     

    Brozek

     

    Tactically Brozek will cause unknown issues to their defence (maybe good maybe bad, who knows!) however the unexpected could pay dividends.

    I dont think we should change our tactics too much for Sunday, If we try to play like them then they’ll have more of a chance, as I said earlier, aslong as we match them physically and play the ball on the ground we should be ok, If we go the long ball route we’ll struggle, don’t give them too much respect In our set up, 5 In midfield seems the best option as thats where if we the battle we’ll trounce them, we need to score first and as early as possible, they then have to change things and I’m not sure they can.

    Thanks for the tip off, The Tall Cranes it is, I’ve been there many moons ago! Assumed it had been shut down.

     

    All the best everyone for Sunday, be safe, don’t take the bait.

     

    Charlie Mulgrew – please beast Elbows early doors, he’s a coward and a thug.

     

    If we are allowed to play football we will win, if we are brave in the tackle and on the ball we will win.

    Here is the only real quiz question in town, 100 points for the correct answer, Given that all the facts are now in and have been for some time, what on earth could the reason be for the delayed verdict in the big tax case? I mean the huns very future s riding on the outcome, and we all know how important they are to the well being of the nation – so why the major delay with the verdict? Anybody have a scooby?
