Ticketus secure their £40m of tickets

1467

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.

    Nah mate.

     

     

    Did you speak to the Big Man about getting back in??

    petec – I think the phrase “The Celtic Family” is often understated.

     

     

    From Lanarkshire to Lourdes, from Newmains to New York, it has been my privilege and pleasure to spend some of the brief time I have on this planet with good Celtic people from all sorts of backgrounds, united in our love and appreciation of the Hoops.

     

     

    We have laughed and drank and smoked and talked and argued and sometimes even cried together.

    I deleted my facebook a long time ago, being honest there is no point unless you persuade all those on your own personal facebook to leave facebook. It would be a Great Spiritual Awakening that is only possible when people FEAR God.

     

     

    No-one Fears God anymore, unfortunately.
