Its a negotiating tactic. McColl goes in with £6m, Green says £15m and they meet somewhere in between.

Yawn. A source says, it is suggested that, blah blah blah. What a crock of crap.

Surely these actions should be made criminal? No wonder HMRC rejected the CVA.

So when do BDO step in?

Farewell Naisy, and good luck.

Stylish and thought provoking as ever, Andy. Thanks!

I presume by raising an action with the court of session to have the administrator's course of action challenged.

Going for an Italy and Croatia double tonight. Odds were about 5/1.

Just wouldn't work. I presume it relied heavily on the search function!

And I can now read the forum on tapatalk. Good work!

Thank feck for that. Was driving me mad. Cheers!

Its certainly going to be a big week. If the CVA is approved, Green has promised to reveal more about his backers and some of the finer detail and proof that his takeover stacks up. If the CVA fails, we move toward a newco. Who would bet against the FTT announcing its findings too?

As ever, the proof is in the pudding. We said this from day 1 with Craig Whyte and the strategy was flawed. So you can understand the reluctance to accept any assertions or spin at face value. I welcome the assurances provided but unless we get the substantive information promised upon agreement of the CVA (if it gets agreement), then gloves will be off.

Interesting to see that they have sought the views of Rangers fans. Whilst those who actually present the show might get wrapped up in their own self-important and green-tinted bubble, the commercial needs of the organisation should see their executives take a more objective view. They have seen our support grow in voice and with a greater sense of purpose in recent times. To ignore that would be silly.

Agreed. No doubt Miller had some business advisors on this side of the pond to keep him appriased of his options, but the fact he was attracted to the deal in the first place, and that this was his preferred option, suggests that it was put to him by someone. Answer's on the back of a stamp as to who...

I'd be surprised if FIFA insist on additional action being taken. But then, as has been said, FIFA are currupt and believe they are above the law.

In other news, this evening I can confirm receipt of 1 email and 2 text messages.

As asked Mark Daly and Alistair Lamont on twitter earlier what exactly their point was with regards to the latest set of emails. And given the Admin's response within the article which seems to suggest it was a lot of stuff and nonsense, what was Mark Daly's response. Given that Admins are referring them to m'learned friends, perhaps that will explain why they haven't replied. I just hope Admins follow through with the threat and raise an action. Will be amusing to see them squirm.

Admin Statement just released:

I'm pretty sure that his role as CEO is part of the CVA document.

I don't think its that. I question a number of their words and actions but D&P are court appointed and are supposed to act in the interests of creditors. At the outset I suspect Whyte would have been telling them that he was the secured creditor and all they needed to worry about in terms of getting agreement to a CVA - hence the in and out by March payday stuff, and D&P promising to keep fees to £500k if that is the case. Almost from the moment the D&P got their foot in the door they've uncovered that Whyte has woven a web of lies and deceit that has taken months to unravel. Ergo, we are where we are.

Green appears to be playing the peacekeeper role so far with noises about drawing a line in the sand. That said, he has clearly supported the court action and doesn't seem short of an opinion or two. We need a strong CEO who will have our detractors in his sights. Lets hope Green is that man.

So, the St Mirren Chairman thinks a dangerous precedent has been set by raising an action in the Court of Session? The reality is that a dangerous precedent has been set by the SFA in acting out with its competence and by not permitting arbitration via CAS, as is required by FIFA. What an arse.

I agree with his substantive points but I struggled to read that. The style was plain english on steroids.
