Companies House published the long overdue Annual Return for The Rangers Football Club Ltd (previously Sevco Scotland Ltd) today. Although only received by Companies House yesterday (12 Sep 13) it was dated 29th May 2013, however, the submission was incomplete.
A company is required to detail all their shareholders since their previous Annual Return (or as in this instance, since formation). Companies House say the Annual Return must detail “the name of every shareholder (or joint-shareholders) who has ceased to be a shareholder since the made-up date of the previous annual return (or in the case of a first return, since the incorporation of the company)”.
The only shareholder detailed on this Annual Return is Rangers International Football Club PLC (RIFC PLC). RIFC PLC was not formed until 16 November 2012, nearly four months after Sevco Scotland Ltd was formed, so could not have been a founding shareholder.
And there’s more…….
The Rangers Football Club Ltd issued a Statement of Capital to Companies House, dated 31 October 2012, showing the same number of shares in issue as this Annual Return (33,415,200), some two weeks before Rangers International was formed. The Statement of Capital was submitted by Caroline Nicholls of Field Fisher Waterhouse LLP, who should be in a position to assist the directors.
I’d never really given any consideration to who owned Sevco Scotland Ltd prior to the shares being consumed by Rangers International, but this omission is curious. The story will move on now with auditors Deloittes taking centre stage. They have plenty on their plate prior to signing off the PLC’s accounts so may be happy to turn a blind eye to the reporting requirements of a subsidiary company. Companies House already have an active issue over submissions for Sevco 5088 Ltd, it remains to be seen whether this one passes below the radar.
This is all so unnecessary as I am sure the correct information would be perfectly appropriate and in good order.
Can you imagine what we would be doing if our ‘club’ was being run in this manner? This story is being played out while all those who should be asking questions are being distracted by a player betting against his own club!
In the grand scheme of things it doesn’t matter if Ian Black hedges against himself, or what embarrassingly light punishment he receives. The real story is so much bigger, it is being written in large type, visible from the moon landings, but the football authorities appear happy to stand back and let events take their course.
No looks of surprise next time around – from anyone.

The lambeg balloons at his belly , weighs
Him back on his haunches, lodging thunder
Grossly there between his chin and his knees.
He is raised up by what he buckles under.

Seamus would also have been aware that over the centuries the actual instrument became heavier and heavier,as drummers would attempt to make even more sound.It got so loud in fact as to drown out there wee flutes.The neck harness required them to throw there heads back to balance their walk.
So in effect “buckling” under their own history.
Someone mentioned on here today that the obsession of keeping the History of there old club is preventing the building of a new one ,a wonderful paradox.
RIP Seamus. Braw !

FF stands for Focus Focus…….
When is an Annual Return not an Annual Return?
– When it’s the first return since the incorporation of the company.
– When it arrives at Companies House over 3 months late.
– When it’s incomplete.
– When it’s incomprehensible.
Swally McOist: “What’s the problem? Now we just move on.”.
Orcish talons scratching pustular domes and opining that holding the Upper Tier Tribunal in public is “dodgy as f***”:
‘Getting judged by a “Bishopp”…..’
——
‘We should have clued-up Rangers people present to witness this being played out.’ [this plan is bu**ered ab initio]
——
‘Am I right in believing the judge hearing the appeal by HMRC will only be ruling on points of tax law, not the opinions of the original panel?’
——
“Did anyone note the club not being a club line. Wasn’t sure how to read that one!?!’
——
‘Leapt out at me too mate – hopefully not a foretaste of how this Judge is thinking. Last thing we need is any clouding of the ‘company not Club went bust’ debate.’
——
They’ve not seen this bit yet:
‘Although the professional football team known as
Rangers had played in the Scottish Premier League until 2012, the collapse led to the
ejection of the team from that league, and a team known as Rangers now plays in the
Scottish Third Division.’

Surprise, surprise….I do agree, not 100%, but 99%. >}
The bit I don’t agree with is the sfa bit, in saying that, I do agree with it, just think sorting the referees is the easier option.
To tear down the sfa will take time, and may never happen, and it doesn’t appear that the will is there, the referees can be done with the stroke of a pen.
If they have no influence on the pitch, the sfa lose their power.
Simples really >}

rite
so ‘the glasgow pub’ in bucharest is a hun joint.
why did yous not tell me
cheers!
tho they have the lion rampant flag up as well which a real hun pub wuldnt have so they r well mixed up
but theres nae cunt in apart from us listenin to tears for fears!
Can’t wait for the Morton cup game 60,000 diehards cheering the team to victory ……..
No I don’t think so either but the way all the moaners are going on they never miss a game so it should be a sell out but think we will be lucky to get 20,000 faithful through and through as long as its the champions league HH
Some of the threats have comefrom disappointed Rangers supporters; othersfrom supporters of rival teams who haveformed the opinion that RFC’s use of the EBTgave it an unfair financial advantage.
Sounds like a Keevins statement..!

Many moons ago you posted what can only be called a beautiful post and is my favourite post of all time. Trouble is in me grey middle age I’ve forgotten what it was about; you hadn’t been on for a while and I think you were summarising being celticminded. Tonight you’ve done it again; to get heaney across in so few words is some job and to describe the haters is no mean feat. I tried to meet up with ‘roccobhoy’ in the boomerang in bray only he was at a match\watching a match in London at the time; got to outside a belfast pub in which was ‘captured’ to find I was too pissed to press the bell to get in and arranged to meet a blogger (Cannae remember who) outside CP to get a cqn badge only to find my mobile battery had gone flat and he wanted to meet in the pub.Anyway, I’ve long given up the idea of meeting my heroes but you GL is one of them. The next time you’re in a pub , have a gassy, cheap Fosters and think of a fan of yours JM.

You asked for comments. What type of rice? Have you thoroughly washed it and how long will you cook it?
And what will you serve with the rice:o)
Its shocking that TRFC can get away with filing partial accounts and get away with it. When will someone in power have the cahones to put them out of their misery and give Scottish society a break. This becomes more and more bizarre by the day. When folks say that we were not paranoid enough they were spot on. Who knows what’s next? The Scottish govt are up to their necks in this.

Its not a pleasant memory. Oh I feel your pain
Just had a call from my bro.
Asked if I knew anyone who would be interested in buying 2 rod stewart tickets for the Hydro on 2nd Oct.
Asked if I knew any Tims that would be interested before his Mrs puts them on Fb.
Ps £65 each is that the price of a ticket for a concert now?

Agreed
Celtic would risk losing it’s current domination of the high ground if a bun fight over what they should be called was started. The facade at Ibrox is already cracked and crumbling. We only need to wait.
The Napoleon quote about not interrupting your enemy while he is making a mistake applies here big time, especially since the mistake is so enormous and he hasn’t finished making it!

Hi Eldiegobhoy, thanks for your words on Sunday. Got me through an emotional night. You and your dearly departed are in my prayers.
greendreamz…..
Excellent post earlier.
I disagree with one of your comments, though. They WILL be back challenging us. There are ‘rangers men’ with a bit of money out there. They need to get rid of some obstacles before they pump money into the club.
First, the needed to get rid of the big tax bill. Liquidation sorted that.
Now they need to get themselves back in the Premier League. That will happen.
Then they need to get rid of the current owners. Not sure how they will do that.
However, once they do, they’ll have big crowds of very angry ‘fans’ at every game.
They’ll have compliant refs and a compliant sfa.
i am sure there]y (or their descendants) will be back along with their dirty tricks within a few years.
By that time, we’ll be talking about 10 in a row, and that will up the anger stakes big time.
And remember, even with a poor team, they’ll quite possibly get the same points as we do against the dross. Then they’ll just need some ‘honest mistakes’ against us.
Call me paranoid…….
Thomthetim
Remiss of me not to read the full post earlier. I expected to see the word BOOM before each of the points you made.
The laying out of the ground rules for the Appeal hearing to be transparent and public must make for uncomfortable reading for TFOD.
Their whole modus operandi is based on the lack of transparency or more correctly the illusion of transparency. Pretendy/kid-on/wink wink transparency.
There will be no funny business allowed and since the transcript will not be redacted in any way, unlike the First Tier transcript, the casual observer will be able to make their own mind up. This means that the final adjudication is more likely to be untainted.
Halloween should be fun too.

see that wee SCOUSE actor STEVE GRAHAM have you ever seen anyone so happy.?????whats his connection to CELTIC??????
Sevco…a club with double standards, no morals and zero integrity.
McCoist…a perfect spokesman for that club..
..a marriage made in heaven.
Until Celtic can get out of the corrupt Scottish game then we are stuck with it .
I firmly believe we are on the front foot in making this happen ,we have out grown our oldest rivals since wee Fergus put his vision in place .
10,000 seats more than our rivals IMO forced them into ever more desperate measures just to hang on to our coat tails and it ultimately led to the death of our rivals (even if bbc Scotland can’t find the b**ls to back Jim Spence) .
We have suffered the bias shown to the dead club for many decades and we will suffer the bias that will be shown to the tribute act when they arrive in the top league as the only way they will provide a challenge whilst living within their means and playing by the rules is with even more help from the peepil .
As long as we keep our house in order we will benifet when the time comes for getting out of this corrupt backwater .
