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.

    Not sure I understand the question.

     

     

    The track came from an album called Willie and the lapdog.

     

     

    I think Wullie Gallagher was an old gravedigger who took them under their wing when they had their first job after school

    Ard Macha,

     

     

    Enjoying your preludes.

     

     

    What is your poison tonight my friend?

     

     

    Believe it or not, I’m just home from a St Patrick’s Evening. 6 days late but the passion never disintegrates.

    Red wine although, the boys have to go to football training tomorrow morning (Gaelic) so I’m probably in the bad books.

     

     

    Glad you enjoyed your Oiche lá Fheile Padraig. The passion’s probably stronger where you are:-)

    Ard Macha,

     

     

    Red wine,

     

     

    That’s our poison at home and The ‘Murph, after the original can’s of Guinness are done, my Granda’s medicine.

     

     

    Speaking of my Granda, a fervent and dedicated follower of Belfast Celtic, it was his passion.

    Bob Dylan…well…I’ve just gone to Amazon to source John Wesley Harding and Slow Train Coming by the man as they are missing from my cds and they are truly great . Who can walk in his shoes? No one…a unique and literary musical genius.

    OK heres a taster of Real Spiritual stuff that you should hear about in EVERY House of God, There is a reason the Churches have been co-opted and controlled for decades. Neutered to perfection.

    Here’s a wee Gaeilge tip, it’s far better to say ‘a chara’ when addressing someone . You’ll be understood and most people in Beal Feirsde use ‘mo chara’ and that’s where the word ‘mucker’ comes about, but ‘mo chara’ would not be best Irish in my humble opinion.

     

     

    I’m sure you’re glad you asked.

    You know, you don’t know fear or real love til you marry and then, oh my God only then, til have your own children.

     

     

    My children are young Thank God but friend’s children and young people you know suddenly take more significance when you hear what they’re up to at nights out, weekend’s etc that you did yourself……and maybe now regret.

     

     

    Ibrox on Sunday, I’ve never been there on such an occasion as this Sunday brings and I’m glad I’m not going.

     

     

    My local Celtic friendly pub, a taxi there and back, Guinness for a few hours with my friends, I’m safe.

     

     

    You folks at Ibrox or in “MIXED PUBS” please stay safe.

     

     

     

    I think those people will be out to hurt, please please take care.

     

     

    And, I’m expecting you safe and sound at the corner on Tuesday morning for a lift to work.

     

     

    Make sure you’re there safely mo chara
