  1. Listen to this crap:

    He has only JUST been allowed to start trading again i.e. moving funds by the SA Tax authority.

    He couldn't apply to be any part in Rangers takeover and that is why he HAS APPLIED to the SFA for 'proper person' status now that his business with SARS is over.

    He has stated UMPTEEN times since Feb 14th that he favours no side but would like to help Rangers (but that is up to the SFA).

    He is STILL worth megabucks.

    He has spoken AT LENGTH to Ally and told him that he has got to be careful BECAUSE of his business with SARS not to drag the Club into the grubber any more.

    If he can get clearance against his name in Scotland i.e. SFA, he will put money in, but not to Green by the looks of it!

  2. I thought that as well, but the way he's carried on he must think he can get around that.

     

    Something stirred him up, and I still believe it was from the RFFF/Green meeting, maybe as GS says He thinks a CVA is now possible, he cant invest , so, why the alarm now, If he knew something on Green it would have came out in his statement which makes believe someone has passed info to him. ( or, im way off mark) lol

  3. Yesterday's meeting between the RFFF and Green lasted for over 3 hours and we were fed titbits what we needed to know.

     

    Going by Kings statement earlier, who divulged the rest of the meeting to him.

     

    Someone at that meeting has fed him everything about Greens plans and I could bet my mortgage on who.

    By Ronnie Esplin, Press Association Sport

     

    Rangers' controversial owner Craig Whyte has turned the tables on the Scottish

    Football Association by threatening to take them to court for defamation.

     

    Whyte had already been deemed unfit to hold an official position in the game by

    the SFA when he was handed fines totalling #200,000 by the ruling body in April

    for bringing the game into disrepute.

     

    At the same time the administration-hit Ibrox club were handed a 12-month

    transfer embargo - which was successfully appealed - and fined #160,000 after

    being found guilty of five charges relating to their financial affairs and the

    appointment of Whyte as chairman.

     

    The Motherwell-born businessman has refused to pay the fine, which he initially

    described as "a joke" and it was reported this week that the SFA's legal team

    were ready to pursue him through the courts for the money.

     

    However, when Whyte was asked by Press Association Sport for his reaction to

    the prospect of legal action being against him, he replied: "I will be going

    after them. I will be looking at legal options against the SFA.

     

    "They have a lot to answer for with their defamatory statements about me which

    formed the basis of their so-called investigation.

     

    "Scottish football's regulators are inept and have showed themselves up. But

    they have no jurisdiction over me."

     

    The SFA declined to comment.

     

    Whyte has agreed to sell his 85% shareholding in Rangers for #2 to Charles

    Green, who is leading the consortium in place to take control of the club.

     

    The former Sheffield United chief executive's group has pledged #8.5million for

    creditors who will be able to vote on a Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA) next

    week.

     

    Should creditors reject the CVA, then Green would form a newco.

     

    Whyte is giving the CVA his full backing and is ready to walk into the sunset

    following his traumatic period as owner of Rangers, which began when he bought

    the club from Sir David Murray last year for #1.

     

    "I am 100% behind the CVA, I am very much in favour of it," he said.

     

    "I hope it goes through because it is the best way forward for the club and it

    will leave Rangers in an excellent situation.

     

    "My shares will form part of the consortium's shareholding and after that I

    will focus on other activities.

     

    "It has certainly been eventful year but I did what needed to be done,

    unpopular as it was. There was no alternative. It had to be done.

     

    "If it wasn't me it would have been someone else.

     

    "People will look back in a year or two with a different view.

     

    "People have conveniently forgotten the state Rangers were in at that time.

     

    "I should have taken the club into administration on completion of the deal.

     

    "But there was no way the situation would have been avoided unless someone

    came in and put in #100million and we have seen in recent weeks how difficult it

    is to get anyone to put money into a football club."

    Dave King also says he's making a claim against club for the full amount of his investment, based on "deliberate non-disclosure by David...

     

    Alasdair Lamont ‏@BBCAlLamont

    ...Murray of transactions that he had committed to on behalf of the club that were both risky and to the sole advantage of the Murray Group"

     

    Alasdair Lamont ‏@BBCAlLamont

    DK: "I also believe that all true Rangers fans should not buy any season tickets until full and frank disclosure...

     

    Alasdair Lamont ‏@BBCAlLamont

    ... has been provided by Duff & Phelps, Mr Green, and Mr Whyte, as to what is truly going on behind the scenes."

  6. HMRC arrange for liquidators at Rangers if administrators fail to save club

     

     

    HM Revenue and Customs have arranged for liquidators to be appointed at Rangers should administrators fail to rescue the club.

     

    The tax authorities agreed the plan with current administrators Duff and Phelps, it was revealed on Thursday.

     

    Insolvency firm BDO have been lined up by HMRC should the current attempts to get the Ibrox club out of administration fail and they are put into liquidation.

     

    The move was made by HMRC in April after Duff and Phelps produced their proposals to remain in post, which those owed money had to vote on.

     

    On Thursday the administrators released the proposals approved by creditors, which originally asked them to rubber-stamp the appointment of Duff and Phelps as liquidators of Rangers should a proposed company voluntary arrangement (CVA) fail.

     

    The result of the creditors vote in April has also given the administrators power to "conclude a sale of the whole, or part of the business, property or assets of the company" without needings creditors permission, should the proposed CVA be successful.

     

    Now, should the CVA proposal funded by an £8.5m loan from the Sevco consortium led by Charles Green fail to receive the backing of creditors, the neutral insolvency firm would be called in.

     

    This would be in the case of the compulsory court-ordered winding up of the crisis-hit club, or if a creditors voluntary liquidation (CVL) took place as part of a 'newco' switch.

     

    According to documents released last week, in the event of the CVA failing, the consortium is "contractually obliged" to pay £5.5m for the "business and assets" of Rangers, which would be transferred to a completely different business entity, before the existing one is liquidated.

     

    The details of the newco deal are "confidential" and it is unclear whether the money to fund it would also take the form of a loan with interest.

     

    BDO and HMRC refused to comment on the agreement reached over the situation at the Glasgow club, which was plunged into administration on February 14 having failed to pay £14m in PAYE and VAT since Craig Whyte bought an 85% stake in the club in May 2011.

    I don't like the sound of this, also Dave King has been talking to the BBC. More to follow on why he wants us to oppose the CVA later.

    17.Joint Administrators’ Proposals

    171The Joint Administrators propose the following:

     

    RESOLUTION (1)

     

    171.1 That the Joint Administrators continue the Administration to deal with such outstanding

    matters in relation to the Company as the Joint Administrators consider necessary until

    such time as the Administration ceases to have effect-

    17,1,2 That the Joint Administrators do all such other things and generally exercise all of their

    powers as contained in Schedule 1 of the Act, as they, in their sole and absolute discretion

    consider desirable or expedient in order to achieve the purpose of the Administration.

     

    17.1.3 That the Joint Administrators can investigate and, if appropriate, pursue any claims the

    Company may have.

    17.1.4 That the Joint Administrators can explore any and all options available to realise the assets

    of the Company without recourse to creditors. The Joint Administrators be authorised to

    conclude a sale of the whole, or part of the business, property and assets of the Company

    without having to obtain the sanction of the Company’s creditors at further creditors

    meetings, upon such terms as the Joint Administrators deem fit and they be authorised to

    liaise with all relevant parties, bodies or organisations which they deem relevant for

    achieving that purpose.

    17.1.5 That the Joint Administrators seek to establish a creditors committee, and they be

    authorised to so establish a committee in such terms and on such basis as they deem fit

    without having to obtain any further sanction from the Company’s creditors at a further

    creditors meeting.

    RESOLUTION (2)

     

    17.1.6 That the Joint Administrators may propose such CVA(s) or Scheme(s) of Arrangement as

    they deem appropriate and see fit, subject to the outcome of offers.

    17.1.7 Upon approval of a CVA or Scheme of Arrangement to exit the Administration at such time

    as the Joint Administrators deem appropriate by making an application to the Court

    pursuant to paragraph 79 of Schedule 131 of the Act.

    17.1 .8 That the Joint Administrators are authorised, subject to implementation of a CVA, to

    conclude a sale of the whole, or part of the business, property and assets of the Company,

    without having to obtain the sanction of the Company’s creditors at further creditors’

    meetings, upon such terms as the Joint Administrators deem fit and they be authorised to

    liaise with all relevant parties, bodies or organisations which they deem relevant for

    achieving that purpose.

    17.1.9 Any proposed Voluntary Arrangement or Scheme of Arrangement will be considered on its

    merits by HMRC Voluntary Arrangements Service. Acceptance of the Joint Administrator’s

    proposals by HMRC does not therefore imply acceptance of any Voluntary Arrangement

    proposals that may be put forward as a consequence.

    17.1.10 That The Joint Administrators shall report to creditors no later than 3 months from the date

    of the meeting of creditors on the feasibility of a CVA or Scheme of Arrangement.

    UKMATTERS 21928413.1

     

     

    RESOLUTION (3)

     

    17.1 11 That the Joint Administrators, when it is anticipated that no better realisations will be made

    in the Administration than would be available in a winding up, take the necessary steps to

    Put the Company into either CVL or other compulsory liquidation as deemed appropriate by

    the Joint Administrators. In accordance with paragraph 83(7) of Schedule Bi to the Act

    and Rule 247 of the Rules, HMRC nominate Malcolm Cohen and James Bernard Stephen

    of BDO as joint liquidators of the Company and pursuant to Section 231 of the Act any act

    required or authorised under any enactment to done by the joint liquidators may be done by

    all or any one or more persons holding office as joint liquidators

    RESOLUTION (4)

     

    17.1.12 That, without prejudice to or effect upon creditors rights to bring any challenge to the level

    of that remuneration shall they consider it appropriate to do so, the Joint Administrators’

    remuneration be fixed by reference to the time properly incurred by them and their staff in

    attending matters during the Administration.

    17.1.13 That the Joint Administrators statement of pre-Administration costs under Rule 2.25 of the

    Rules, where no Creditors’ Committee is established, be approved for payment in

    accordance with Rule 2.39C of the Rules.

    171.14 That the Joint Administrators be authorised to draw their reasonably and properly incurred

    Category 2 Disbursements.
