Sterling work by Chris McLaughlin at the BBC who brought us the news that Duff and Phelps have rejected a bid for Rangers from Brian Kennedy, the owner English rugby club, Sale Sharks. Earlier today Kennedy suggested the administrators get their act together and move towards appointing a preferred bidder.
A preferred bidder may now be identified, if not yet publicly announced.
I can imagine the process to whittle bidders down:
‘Tell me, do you own Ibrox Stadium or security and floating charge over it?’
‘No? Ah, that’s a problem, as we don’t have it either. Where do you propose to play matches?’
‘Forget that one, someone tipped off St Mirren.’
‘Don’t take that tone with me, we’re doing our best in difficult circumstances and we’ve not been paid a pound. Yet.’
Craig Whyte controls the security and floating charge over Ibrox. He provided Ticketus with security for the money they due on the season tickets they purchased, worth in the region of £40m.
Mr Whyte and Ticketus, or a proxy, are the only show in town – and that show is not a CVA. Everything else is just shooting the breeze at £600 per hour.

What came up when you clicked on it ?
Thinks I made a boliks of it btw
Why did Amaruzo come out with that? Has HMRC already interviewed him so he knows the games up?

My emails.Please explain.
The voting issue is a good one,
should all members have a single vote ?
how does this accommodate fair play ?
should clubs who have mismanaged their resources be allowed to vote ?
I expect we should be looking at ways to overhaul the voting system with a bit more emphasis on the right to vote, as opposed to the so called democratic model, one man one vote is fine if everyong involved with the game are afforded the right to vote, however the system is an autocracy.
It has merits but needs to be made to work for the good of the game, at the moment it is working against the good of the game and for the good of the officeholders.
The clubs must be removed from the administration of the game for it to work, the same rules we want for the sfa must apply with public access to all minuted decisions on request.
The clubs will make sure this works as they will be the main inquisitors.
I cannot see why after spending years and considerable amout of money trying to attract customers and ensuring Celtic thrive, we should consider sharing home gates with clubs who have mismanaged their resources.
Due diligence shoudl be top of the agenda for change, and should be considered along with stadia for promotion for any club.
Who are these fuds who call up Clyde and say they are Celtic fans? Total zoomers.

Can’t. don’t have a clue.\
I thought I was posting a pic from my e-mail account, and when I clicked on it it took me to my e-mail account and apparantly , according to the wife it takes you to your e-mail account.
Sorry bout that, nothing sinister, it’s me who is doing this, not an IT person, as is obvious :>)))
Any chance one of the mods can remove my post at 19.11
Computers are not really for old folks like me.
Thanks

My emails.Please explain.
I just saw the hotmail log-in page. I do’t use hotmail. I guess if you do, and you are already logged in (or have auto log-in), the same link would take you to your own mails.
Don’t panic and don’t imagine that TheExiledTIm is reading your mail.
And i’m tired, the peace has been shattered, it’s grandweans time.
Exiled, you’d get a job with Duff and Duffer!
An SFA spokesman today detailed the reasoning behind the postponement of the inquiry into RFC(ia)..”this postponement allows all powers at the SFA to be focussed on the real and only serious problem affecting Scottish football today ..namely Neil Francis Lennon “
The Exiled Tim
Ok ,i think it is sensible to ask for post to be deleted.HH
Evening folks.
Havent had much time up until now to read over posts and try to digest what happened today.
Scotland, the previous champions of reaching new levels, just hoodwinked even themselves.
If Celtic dont take steps to take the matter of ethnic persecution against one Neil James Lennon I for one will be disappointed.
That a man can run on to the field of play and attack a man, admit attacking a man only for the courts to find a way of aquitting him is one thing.
That two men could conspire to manufacture and dispatch three home made bombs having had a history uncovered of loyalist sympathies, only to be acquitted of conspiring to kill the intended target but instead intended to assault that person is so offensive and demeaning to the intended targets it can only leave Neil Lennon totally convinced beyond any shadow of doubt that its not just to dogs in the street, the unemployed and uneducated instinctively violent sterotypes who wish harm against him – but everyone including the establishment.
I shudder to think what is going through that mans head tonight, in fact I dispair.
That man must feel beyond lonely and isolated.
I dont think a show of strength from the Celtic family will work this time.
I think he will walk away from it in the summer. Do you know what, I almost want him to, because its all true.
Walk away Neil, for your own sake. You dont deserve this, no human being deserves this.
I have no idea how we will pick up the pieces and I have no idea who would want to manage the club after you have – but your cause is bigger than the club in this instance.
Nice one TET …vino time methinks! Hh
Sir Paul
Yep,kiddo.. Ye goat THAT right!
As long as.. Whytey.. remains determined tae.
Play..

Any link you make direct from an email like that will default to hotmail and to any who click if already logged into hotmail will get re-directed to their own email account.
Nothing sinister at all.

Would like to think you are correct.
Tonight almost certainly, in his mind I dont think you are.
Maybe Sunday will refocus and energise Neil, im not so sure
EWO,
I think you underestimate his love for the club.

Steady on with the “happy couple” bit. I just said it’s our anniversary today:o)
Anyways a wee story- a stupid stinkin hun came into my wife’s bank branch today bitterrly complaining about money being pulled from his account by sources he’d not heard of. Was making a big and loud deal of it in the banking hall blaming the bank blah, blah, blah etc.
Anyway cutting this short Mrs EDB told the fud who the money was taken by – porn sites!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He slithered oot the door and his pal who he let into the fiasco told everybody within earshot what had happened. Laughing.
Stupid huns.

When it gets to the stage I dont know if I would tolerate it myself, and no one knows more than me my own feelings for the club – then that is impossible to be true.

EWO . you have a point my friend . Surely there must come a time when a challenge is made to the highest court outside these shores . It was a racing certainty that after the sad loss of paul mcbride that the hate against neil lennon would begin again . Celtic f.c should have found neil another top notcher in the legal field , but having said that not only did paul mcbride support and defend neil lennon , he also had the guts to stand shoulder to shoulder with him .
hail hail

If Neil goes – Celtic should go too. No other option.

Cheers my friend. I think so. She puts up with a lot but if she didnae love Celtic we wouldn’t have lasted this long. But we are good together thanks.
Dunfermline so skint they need an immediate payment from the bares but can also sign a new goalie…
I for one think it is time we sat at the back of the big blue bus again. We should keep our mouths shut. We just make them angry when we speak anyway. Its all our fault. Not theirs. It is their country after all. Its time we understood that. We are the aliens. Not them. We should know our place by now. And it certainly is not at the top table. Lets not rock the boat anymore- come on lads: the good Orange herenvolk have been good enough to tolerate our funny Irish ways. Lets just let it be. Lenny for one needs to learn the concept of “dignified silence”. The establishment only expects unquestioning obedience and compliance to their mad arbitrary rules. Now thats not a lot to ask, is it? There are just too many trouble makers on this site. We need to start doffing our caps to the master race. Its the very least we can do. There was a time we they could bar us from the workplace or horsewhip us- but noww they just want to politely ignore us and lord it over us. I don’t think theres anything wrong with that. I’m happy to oblige. I’m grateful not to be horsewhipped. I think it shows tremendous generosity on their part. If my ritual humiliation keeps the peace then i’m for it. Lets be good little times. Don’t stick your head above the parapet. They are after all only correcting historical imbalances: making sure we don’t rise above our station.
So as I say Lenny needs to immitate the good jocular example set by Herr Coisty with his smooth smug decency and contrived sincerity. All that artless passion, raw honesty and open frankness is a disgrace. Its just an embarrassment to compromising types like myself. And I think I speak for the majority of lilly livered fans out there. Honesty just causes trouble. It is a terrible habit, nae vice, he needs to cut outif he is to gain any respect in Scotland. So lets walk on the otherside of the street. Lets give up our seats for them. Let us take our powder and acquiesce to the superior will of the good upstanding Orange herenvolk.
Yours faithfully
Skunk faced mummy’s boy.
So C4 have some dynamite to unleash tomorrow. The hordes will be wishing they were more polite to Alex Thomo now. I hope its a list of all EBT participants.
