ian1964 10,513 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Anybody know who this guy is and if he's correct? http://celticnewco.livejournal.com/3474.html Charles Green has been found not guilty of links with disgraced ex-Ibrox chief Craig Whyte in a report commissioned by the club. Queen's Counsel, Roy Martin QC, who oversaw the investigation has completed a draft report which will be handed to the clubs board confirming there is no credibility in obscene claims made by serial liar Whyte that he was part of the Charles Green led summer takeover which saved the club from administration. The findings of the report look set to spell the end for club chairman Malcolm Murray who has lost the support of the original investors in the club who purchased the assets Duff & Phelps. It is well known that these original investors are still loyal to Charles Green. It does raise a problem for the club in that the blue chip investors such as Legal & General and Hargreave Hale stumped up the cash once Murray, a well respected ex pension fund manager in London, became involved in the club. I'm led to believe there is a lot of political manoeuvring behind the scenes to clear the air with these investors before Murray is finally pushed aside. Despite tabloid rumours Walter Smith will NOT be following his friend, Murray, out of Ibrox. Although Walter has some misgivings about the motives of many who sit alongside him in the Ibrox directors box both him and Ally McCoist have decided they are best placed to defend the interests of the club and its fans from within the corridors of power at Ibrox. In better news I can also confirm that the club have sought legal advice over the ownership of Ibrox stadium, Murray Park and the Albion Car Park. Under Scottish Law those assets are all owned by Sevco Scotland Limited which later became The Rangers Football Club Ltd. It is thought that the best case scenario for Whyte would be a successful clam against the club for damages if he was misled by Green or Imran during the summer fight for control of Rangers. In the event of any successful claim the most that Mr Whyte would be awarded would be £1.35m (33% of the value of the assets when purchased from D&P). It would appear that when Ticketus won their case against Whyte, that has sent him to the brink of bankruptcy, he has tried via a compliant press to put pressure on Green and Imran to give him a pay off. When no pay off was forth coming we were subjected to the usual bluster from Whyte, his friends in the media and the Timmy conspiracy theory mob on the internet. I hope you've found this information helpful and I'll look to blog again soon about what the future holds for the club. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveC 150 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 "Not guilty" of what. He has admitted he lied about Whyte's involvement repeatedly, that if we had got a CVA Whyte would have owned us again Thanks to his chicanery and that he had stitched up the takeover with D+P as early as Feb 2012. There is a lot of self-admitted guilt already. But no doubt it will relieve many of Delloite find Delloite "not guilty". 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie 8,200 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 The guy uses Twitter and has been correct with his info a few times. I don't know if he's right here but his message seems pretty inconsistent in any case. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa 0 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Could be a blessing in disguise if true. The club really doesn't need the trouble which a big fat guilty verdict could bring with regards to the association membership etc. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 the commission can't find green not guilty just no further guilt. if we are lucky. that article also contradicts it's self when it says if whyte has a claim its only for 33%. i though he had no claim. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
simplythebest 0 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 If true I really think he should be asked back. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 If true I really think he should be asked back. i think the sponsors who made an official complaint about him may object to that. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
