A couple of points ... - Just imagine what would happen if the Green folk now decide it is not worth it? The SFA would thus be held directly accountable for the probable demise of the club (and/or forcing it into newco state), after dealing out a verdict they have no right too. - If we appeal to that FIFA Court or an COA, how much time will it cost? The transfer window approaches pretty fast, at least in terms of "legal dating processes".

Ain't that like what happened to Sion? Haven't double-checked on that. For Scotland, this is a first. Now imagine that they will find us guilty for some wrong-doings in the EBt thing (they can just make that up too) and hammer us with a ... say ... 25-point penalty. You know, if the creditors don't drive us over the edge by not agreeing to the CVA, these lots at the SFA and SPL sure do it. There is only so much a club can take. You do hope that, no matter what, we should have a number of actions ready to take affect from next season, fan-based, so the club can't be sanctioned.

How would the 12 month signing ban affect a newco?
der Berliner replied to Zappa's topic in Rangers Chat
Perhaps it would not affect a newco right now, but rest assured, they will make this up as they go along, just like they did with the current ban. -
Rangers FC & Integrity: Truth Unvarnished
der Berliner replied to andy steel's topic in Rangers Chat
What actually brought the SFA to have "specsavers" as sponsors? A wry sense of humour that. Funnily enough, I altavista'ed Willie Collum with regard to this, and look who/what comes up . -
This is something I've said from the very start. They only whipped up this new "law" a few years back and going back a decade or so is fine if it was murder or the like, but this isn't. Even if, as they and the mhedia claim, we used them incorrectly. I would assume that there is "limitation of liability in time", though some of our smarter legal brains would know that.

Simple answer? Scum does as scum does.

Two sides of the same coin - THE taxman cometh.
der Berliner replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
HMRC aside, now that Ticketus goes after Whyte directly for their 27m, will they be removed from the creditors' pot? I would imagine that they cannot demand their money back from two sources at the same time? As for the article and HMRC, the press really whips themselves into another frenzy here, thus putting further pressure on those making the decisions ... unless they sit in London. BTW, money of nurses? Mabye on the Hooped Horrors' next visit to Iborx, we should have a large banner proclaiming: "Your tax pays British soldiers!" -
Methinks someone should write a decent article about it and post it on Gersnet's main site, so it makes the headlines of NewsNow. If no-one does, we need to get this in motion. Perhaps someone can actually hop over to Ibrox, take a few pics and speak to Tiny herself?

Rod Petrie insists SPL must maintain integrity despite financial cost
der Berliner replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
So if other individuals drive whole clubs into ruin within a year, the clubs should also be punished ahead and possibly instead of the sinner? Yes, that makes sense to the small minded. That is like charging the whole crew of the Costa Concordia AS WELL AS all passengers for the demise of this cruise liner, while essentially letting the captain / helmsman getting away. -
Has he been hired as yet?
-
Rest assured, some of this scum will post pics via the net somewhere and thus they can be tracked down. I do hope that Rangers will ask the police for an investigation.

We should make sure that most contracts are set to normal soon and we then are able to send a few of the high earners away, if only for saving the club. Whittaker, Davis, and McGregor spring to mind .. though I wouldn't like to see the last 2 go. Still, McCabe, Ness, and Bedoya today have shown that there is life without e.g. Davis. I'd hate to see Naismith go though. He, McCabe, Aluko, and even Kerkar and Little should spearhead our future. Bocanegra has sure earned enough in his life to stay on too, Edu might be the target of a higher bid though. It's "keeping fingers crossed" time for sure.
-
It would be interesting to hear more about the consortium and its members, the Singapore links and all. Let's hope they can get a CVA and keep the club running. Next big dealine is the SPL inquisition, not to mention the HMRC verdict. Speaking of which ... yes, I have forgotten how that went ... does it come into the CVA pot and is addressed therein?
-
Well, not all people are comfortable in front of people, cameras, and microphones.
-
... and by his own words (which can't be trusted, I know), he won't "own" more than 15% of the club. So far, he's the front man. Nothing more and nothing less.
-
... and who knows, maybe on our next trip to the Scumhut, some cheeky Bears will wave banners proclaiming "WE LOVE GREEN!"
-
As opposed to Whyte, who sounded like he can be trusted. A lot of ifs and buts here, yet, we should be under no illusions that we need to get out of admin sooner rather than later and no-one says that Green & Co. will be here by x-mas if someone buys them out for serious money.
-
No SDMs, no Craig Whytes ... more to our liking, I suppose!?
-
In all fairness, and while I don't like somesuch either, Kennedy and Co. have been given broadsides in nigh all directions. We haven't heard much about Green's bid and his consortium members, but in the end, if Ally is satisfied, I'm not going to oppose for the time being.
-
Bar Frankie's "mysterious" twitter copy, nothing official suggests that it is in fact his bid that will succeed and not the other, even more mysterious bid. About either we know next to nothing, only that both have had about 14 days to check the data, even though Miller was named PB. That is what was - unless I am mistaken - said by the admins themselves.

... as posted on twitter today:

IMHO, FF is currently infested with quite a number of shyte-stirrers and Hooped Horrors. In general though, the patience of the support is wearing thinner by the day and emotions running pretty high. And this will not cease as long as we are out of admin and on some safe standing. You do wonder, in all of this, that people like AJ or Walter keep rather quiet when it comes to getting wealthy people involved. Not that we know what they do or whether they can actually do something. But still ...
