Contrary to our earlier understanding, Rangers did not win a ruling from the Court of Session on who was to be appointed administrator, HMRC and Rangers came to agreement on the appointment of Duff and Phelps, who acted for Whyte during his takeover of the club.
The admission by Duff and Phelps that today’s court action by HM Revenue and Customs was in connection to circa £9m unpaid tax accrued since the takeover in May last year will come as a surprise no one in the Celtic Quick News community. This is why Rangers are now in administration, it’s nothing to do with the big tax case, or indeed, the wee tax case.
Key question is, what will HMRC do now? They’re not going away/. Rangers continued to sign football players despite being delinquent with taxes, and briefed journalists that they rejected a £9m offer for a player on 31 August 2011.
The fact that the business is in administration due to activity carried out under Craig Whyte’s tenure may also interest the Insolvency Service, who are already investigating Whyte’s takeover of the club following information passed by former chairman, Alastair Johnston.

Kirk Broadfoot the first Rangers player to be sacked by the administrator
not because of his wages
but as the administrator stated
he looks like a horse
National news…..
National shame…………
Thanks Paul, I will
Oh and I have been reading this site and posting my thoughts on a very ad hoc basis for years, I mostly lurk, fair play to you, all you have said has transpired. Do you still own http://www.generationofdomination.com? If you do it might be worth dusting it down :-)

sorry guys if I have missed this – what is happening tomorrow with Celtic – mention of press conference??
Lawell is going to condemn media for misquoting him ….. he did not say ” We do not need Rangers.”
He said, ” We don’t need no stink in’ Rangers!”
Alan Preston said earlier on the BBC that during administration you even have to ask for permission to use toilet rolls and light bulbs…dread to think!
praying that it goes back to nine in a row era and they are stripped
Huw Edwards: ‘One of Britain’s biggest football clubs, Rangers, went into administration today. We now cross to Ibrox Stadium in Glasgow, but first we must warn you that this report includes images of several unfathomably ugly human beings.’
Timbhoy2 Yes, Deans south to be precise.
voguepunter. 20.58.
They seem to lay down whey they play Rangers,but it’s more noticeable since McCall took charge as manager.
The Spirit of Arthur Lee.21.00.
I’ll be back to Wishaw,I enjoyed the Commercial,nice Hotel,company was A1.
glendalystonsils.21.07.

Hell mend them for not trying against Rangers.No love for ICT either,Must be their Managers.

“Alan Preston said earlier on the BBC that during administration you even have to ask for permission to use toilet rolls and light bulbs”
That’s why they’ve probably sacked Broadfoot. The equation of instrument to task was probably beyond him
“The Big House stays open – bottome line” – so says the menacing blue gruffalo outside Asbestox.
Can this get any Uglier?
:))))
Channel 5 will be doing an obesity progamme outside poundland tomorrow going with the nick of the street dwellers there just now.
They’ve lived off the fat of the land for too long!

Can’t do cracked but will a smashed one do from this morning’s Scottish Sun:
Smashing Crest
Keep the Faith!
Hail Hail!
Is it true that the hun game on Saturday has been brought forward to a 1pm kick off because they can’t afford to put the floodlights on?
Is it true that the players have been asked to bring their own soap and towells for the shower?
Is it true that buckets will be passed around for a half time collection?
Is it true that they can’t even afford to pay the refs any more??
OK – I understand that they will sell…I’m still unclear (being daft?) how buying clubs can take a player out with the transfer window…are these players exempt?
If yes…Players who will find homes at a bargain price –
McGreggor, Davis – EPL, £2m each
Whittaker, Naismith – Championship £1m each
Without these players – Huns will struggle to win any games..
setting free – I wasn’t aware they used toilet paper
Hearts win 2-1 after extra time.
Gordon J
All true apart from them using soap
Urban W Smith
Serious question – what will happen now with Rangers and away games?
Can other clubs be assured that gate money for away briefs is collected and forwarded – or will there be no Huns seen at any away grounds?
Hun starts greetin on BBC national news, then Jabba lookalike, eyes foamin and chins a wobblin – ” The big hoos must stay open”
Aaaaaaaaaa haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhahahahhhhahahhahahahahahahhaha!!!!

Why couldn’t they have gone an’ done it on a Friday night rather than a school night????
Can you imagine the sheer volume of celebratory ‘laughing water’ that would have been taken as the news unfolded?
(we’re gonna need a bigger ‘gloat’)
;)

I suspect pay at the gate for away fans or purchase from opposition team offices..thus reducing Hun turnover further

I know the guys behind that fine bit of work and I shall pass on my compliments tomorrow
BBC bias,Huns in tears outside iPox,what about me and all my family and friends.,in tears in Ireland England & Scotland.Do we not count.Typical BBC bias.Slan

Clubs can sign contracted players any time they want – they just can’t register them to play outside the transfer windows.
Makes sense to get in early for a player on the cheap too.

“The Big House Must Stay Open”
That’s because he could never fit through the doors of a small or medium sized house
