If those who know about finance see this, can they comment Secondly we didn't use a first class firm of accountants, we used a firm called Solutions @ Fiscal Innovations, part of a firm called HLB Kidsons Impey. Both firms no longer exist, SAFI went bust nearly a decade ago and Kidsons Impey lost a massive insurance case on other tax schemes and was forced to "merge" with Baker Tilly. We have no recourse against either company therefore

There are loads of speculation by people who want to damage Rangers. There are also Facts which need explaining. Hopefully tomorrow.
-
ST money is our money, I think should have an explanation of what is happening. It seems tims are talking non stop about it, and we are burying our heads in the sand.
-
Let's hope CW explains to Rangers Supporters his plans for the future. Also the change in the ST money. Hopefully we hear more tomorrow.

But is it all lies ?

In 1999 club assets including future season ticket revenue were used as security for bank funding. On 26 May last Companies House was formally told that revenue from some of our season tickets ( numbers range from 23,000 and 27,000 dependant on the season) had been removed from that undertaking. Periods involved are season 2011 - 2012 thru' season 2014 - 2015. http://rangerstaxcase.files.wordpress.com/2011/06/mg05s-june2011.pdf

We will have to wait and see when and how much, comes from the new owner.
-
Don't think so. The Stadium is needing money spent, not catering, on the actual Stadium. If money has been promised, that is as important as transfer money.
-
You said the catering company is paying for that. I remember someone saying Rangers needed to spend aroung �£10m to bring the Stadium up to what it should be.
-
So we have paid for a paint job. I thought a bit more would have been done.
-
We all know there is much to be done to the Stadium. Is there anything started ? Only 6 weeks or so till the games start. Did CW have to promise a certain sum of money for this ?

I know transfers take time, but I would like to be hearing some movement on the likes of Steve Davis.
-
It will be a shock to many if the 'only Bosmans' is true. I wonder if Ally will say anything?
-
Frankie Where did you hear about one agent handling the transfers?

Only one, Jordan MacMillan, remains at Rangers but is still waiting for his break. Charlie Adam's doing all right, isn't he? Yes, but not in the light blue. Jordan, loaned out to Wrexham, said of Murray Park: "You don't realise what you've got here u ADVERTISEMENTntil you leave - your stuff washed, your food, everything." Charlie, below, does his own washing at Blackpool and we saw him hoist a team-mate on his shoulders to retrieve a ball from a roof, but as his manager Ian Holloway said, he's trusted and wanted - basic aspirations. Some have tattoos now, quite a few have kids. Most seem happy, even John Johnstone, for whom it was such a blow to be told he wasn't quite good enough - indeed especially John, now playing juniors but, importantly, still being cheered on by his dad. Fordy, though, didn't make it. "Gutted." Then his dad died. He works for Asda now and the caravan lies empty, a portrait of the Queen on the floor. Fordy said of the Murray Park experience: "They don't prepare you for the fall." Jan Derks, ex-head of youth development, admitted this was a problem. Rangers can justifably claim they're relatively new to the business of bringing through their own players, that they're still learning. The Ibrox Frankenstein, complete with deranged Colin Stein leer, is still in development. (Phew)

http://sport.scotsman.com/sport/Aidan-Smith-Dashed-dreams-at.6776167.jp When Rangers opened Murray Park I think fans of other clubs must have feared the worst. While their teams were having to make do with bibs and cones and dog poo and grumpy parkies and desultory minibus journeys in search of wet-weather alternatives, some very un-Scottish phrases like "state-of-the-art" and "high-tech" were being applied to a training complex set to propel the Ibrox club over the hill and far away. Oor fitba is no longer a level playing field. This was the moan from fields rutted and bumpy. The spirit-level wasn't exactly bubble-set before, but Murray Park would give Rangers an outrageous advantage. All the best young talent would want to be th ADVERTISEMENTere. They would be hothoused in optimum conditions and come out the other end all bearing the most chillingly effective of the classic Rangers characteristics - Brian Laudrup's winged ankles, Der Hammer's dynamite shooting, John Greig's vast backside, Willie Johnston's bandy-legged swagger, DJ's towering headers (perm optional) and Big Lorenzo's supreme self-confidence, even after once again overhitting a simple dink so it winded a ballboy 70 yards away. Lots of Greig-sized bottoms squatting on us, squashing the life out of us - that was the Orwellian future. But, as usual in the SPL, the reality has been somewhat different. The Rangers team which has just won the title was not entirely made up of pure Murray Park product. I don't know about you but I half-thought by now it might have been. I guess that's our consolation: Rangers haven't quite been able to grow their own. Their big players in 2010-11 have included Steven Naismith, Steven Whittaker (already SPL-established when they were signed), David Weir (older than some parkies), Steven Davis (could be playing in a better league), Kenny Miller (already gone) and Nikica Jelavic (won't be long now). In other words, a typical, non-indigenous Rangers line-up from any recent season. Almost ten years ago, BBC Scotland screened the series Blue Heaven about a bunch of kids aged 14-16 who were already playing the game with cockiness and, in some, cases, devilment. They seemed like prime Ibrox material. Murray Park would nurture and develop them and make dreams of Copland Road End adulation come true. In the reality style of these programmes we got to meet mums and dads and, where they had them, girlfriends. In the case of David Ford, we got to meet all of his uncles who would pile into his dad's caravan parked at the bottom of the garden and bedecked in the red, white and blue. There were lots of images on the walls of a figure on horseback, probably historical, 17th century, and I thought the uncles might be equestrian fans - but no, they were Rangers aficionados. And because he was wee and carrot-haired and played on the wing we all wanted Fordy to make it. Last week's Blue Heaven - Where Are They Now? caught up with the intake

The suspension could have waited a couple of days, surely. This is one of my worries with Whyte, the way people in his business treat employees. I hope he understands the difference betwen a Football Club and the Supporters, with the usual Companies he works with.
-
They would still be 'under an obligation' tho'. I agree with you, that is why I don't understand the wording. A bottle of wine, and the Final now.
-
If the Tax dispute went against Rangers, would they be able to waive the debt at any time in the future ?
-
I would like Whyte to have waited till Bain was back from America. It just doesn't sit right not to wait a couple of days, do it face to face.

If someone is out of pocket, they usually look to recover the dosh. The only way to do this would be Rangers generated.
