simplythebest 0 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I've always been scheptical about this and I still don't see how its possible. but being sensible the evidence is overwhelming. Plenty of clubs have been taken over under a new company structure, just never had the same fuss over it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stimpy 0 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 The old company is a shell with no emotional attachment to any of us. My shareholding in the oldco was an emotional attachment. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The day it was announced was the saddest part of the whole episode for me. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough, and i'm not trying to be cold. I just think if we want to maintain the stance that this is the same club we can't act emotional over the old company. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
UCF2008 0 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Unless I am mistaken ... the SPL clubs (or their supporters, not the SPL board who should have) voted us out of the SPL. Since we're splitting hairs, they didn't technically vote us out. They voted to refuse transfer of our SPL share from Oldco to Newco. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RANGERRAB 3,302 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 few have been through liquidation. Our oldco hasn't been liquidated and will not be for years to come. It is simply an empty corporate shell with £5.5m in its account. All its assets i.e. club, stadium, training ground, players etc, were transferred over to CG's newco. Every non-bigot with half a braincell knows its the same club run by a different company. When the SFA licence transferred to the newco the club and all is history went with it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
