pete 2,499 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 There are thousands of sevcos it's just a new company start up package that you can buy then change the name off. Yes but I believe according to a poster on FF the owner can be tied to SD. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Barristan Selmy 222 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 (edited) I would say tying Ashely in with fraud is far bigger for us than promotion this year although both would be a dream come true. Would that work favourably for the club? I want the truth to come out but I'm not sure how getting embroiled in more embarrassing controversy would be a dream come true. It's something that must happen but surely there is a multitude of negative possible outcomes in the current investigations. I read a supporter earlier saying Ashley has too much money to get involved in fraud! Edited May 6, 2015 by Ser Barristan Selmy 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Yes but I believe according to a poster on FF the owner can be tied to SD. Sure but it's still a tenuous link surely. Just means they set up a company the same way? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ian1964 10,411 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Typical Golum report! Police investigating takeovers at Rangers have searched the headquarters of Mike Ashley's Sports Direct company in Derbyshire. The Newcastle owner has a stake of almost 9% in the Ibrox club and has control of their retail operations. Sports Direct says the visit relates to "various persons previously employed by and or associated with Rangers". A statement added: "The investigation is not directed at Sports Direct or at any of its directors or employees." And the statement continued: "The police were seeking documentation which might assist the investigation. "Sports Direct has co-operated fully and will continue to co-operate in the provision of information that the police request." Police Scotland also confirmed the visit but would not comment further. Sports Direct started its merchandising deal with the Glasgow club in 2012, while Ashley acquired the naming rights to Ibrox Stadium and became a shareholder in the same year. That followed the takeover from Charles Green's consortium after which Rangers were accepted to play in the Scottish Third Division. Previous owner Craig Whyte was arrested with four others last year in the ongoing police investigation into his 2011 takeover. Whyte bought Rangers from Sir David Murray for £1 and gave an undertaking to settle the club's £18m bank debt. It later emerged he paid the debt by selling three years of season tickets to finance firm Ticketus for £25m. Rangers entered administration in February 2012, while under Whyte's control, over non-payment of around £14m in tax. HMRC subsequently rejected a creditors agreement which would have allowed Rangers to exit administration. The administration and subsequent liquidation of Rangers resulted in Whyte's deal with Ticketus being declared void and the finance firm successfully sued him for £18m over the failed deal. Whyte has also been banned from being a company director for the maximum period of 15 years. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/32604225 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,245 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 The administration and subsequent liquidation of Rangers resulted in Whyte's deal with Ticketus being declared void and the finance firm successfully sued him for £18m over the failed deal. You would have to invent the word liar for him if it wasn't already there. This stuff goes via the BBC out throgh the media channels and will be copied and translated. He knows that and it sure gives him pleasure to no end. I think the BBC Trust already slapped the Scottish Sport branch's chaps, not that this deters people like him. It would do well if the club finally starts to act about such people, head on. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
