Ticketus secure their £40m of tickets

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.

    Often walk over that way pushing my granddaughter on her small bike on the bikepath to amadys shop then on the road way back through Kinross and beyond. Always got a Celts shirt on.

     

    Does Jake R, Tonner or P McGachy ring any bells from around that area?

    I’m doing well, always facing up to lifes tasks. tests always set.

     

     

    I hope to email with you to go deeper into your agnostic belief.

     

     

    If anyone has mine and this Great mans email then do the bridging that needs to be done.

     

     

    My base point is totally Biblical.

    Singing with a fag in his hand.

     

     

    Changed times.

     

     

    Aye, Phil Coulter’s written some classics, despite his faults. He’s a businessman. But for me that is a priceless few minutes, LK bringing that song to life.

    No More Songs

     

    Joe Heaney

     

     

    I will sing no more songs: the pride of my country I sang

     

    Through forty long years of good rhyme, without any avail;

     

    And no one cared even as much as the half of a hang

     

    For the song or the singer, so here is an end to the tale.

     

     

    If a person should think I complain and have not got the cause,

     

    Let him bring his eyes here and take a good look at my hand,

     

    Let him say if a goose-quill has calloused this poor pair of paws

     

    Or the spade that I grip on and dig with out there in the land?

     

     

    When the great ones were safe and renowned and were rooted and tough,

     

    Though my mind went to them and took joy in the fortune of those,

     

    And pride in their pride and their fame, they gave little enough,

     

    Not as much as two boots for my feet, or an old suit of clothes.

     

     

    I ask a Craftsman that fashioned the fly and the bird,

     

    Of the Champion whose passion will lift me from death in a time,

     

    Of the Spirit that melts icy hearts with the wind of a word,

     

    That my people be worthy, and get, better singing than mine.

     

     

    I had hoped to live decent, when Ireland was quit of her care,

     

    As a bailiff or steward perhaps in a house of degree,

     

    But my end of the tale is, old brogues and old britches to wear,

     

    So I’ll sing no more songs for the men that care nothing for me.

    The sheer amount of music in the background legitimizes the sound, and it really does sound good on youtube.

     

     

    What was that willie crap they were bringing to the table?

    RRC : Bob Dylan – brilliant…who else could have Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers as his BACKING BAND. I feel like I’ve grown up with Dylan ; always ringin’ them changes.
