Kowalski Posted February 14, 2012 Report Posted February 14, 2012 Central Ayrshire MP Brian Donohoe, secretary of the Rangers Supporters Club, told the BBC: "It's absolutely devastating information that's come out today that the Inland Revenue would take such a silly decision. "I just think they have moved far too quickly in this one and as a consequence they're almost debarring any possibility of anyone else taking over the club. "The worst case scenario is that they could be put into liquidation and as a consequence we'll lose the name and we'll lose their place in the premier division in Scotland." If the club is liquidated a new club could be formed to take on the Rangers name, and would have to reapply to take its place in the Scottish league structure. Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted February 14, 2012 Report Posted February 14, 2012 Brian Donohoe, what a complete fanny. Acted too quick indeed, this has been contested for fucking years. Quote
Madbadteacher Posted February 14, 2012 Report Posted February 14, 2012 Well, well, well............. I spend one night in hospital when all this could have saved me the cost and antibiotics! One point I seem to be missing, if the filthe get the dunt from the SPL surely there's no guarantee the automaticall get an SFL place. Shouldn't they have to start in the west of Scotland league or summat? FFS it's worse than I thouht if this cheating cunt is embarrassed Rangers legend Derek Johnstone admits he is embarassed to be assosciated with the Glasgow club after the process of entering administration started on Monday. (The Herald) Hope big Doug is reading this Quote
Kowalski Posted February 14, 2012 Report Posted February 14, 2012 The administrators have said that Rangers have £9M in unpaid tax since last May, when Whyte took over. Quote
Penfold Posted February 14, 2012 Report Posted February 14, 2012 HMRC announce that todays administration action is in response to Rangers FC's failure to pay £9m in tax since Craig Whyte took over. So he's still lying to the huns. Re-read yesterdays statement. Quote
Madbadteacher Posted February 14, 2012 Report Posted February 14, 2012 My rasellik supporting pal (it's not his fault he was dropped at birth) claims it's a loyallist/royallist plot to undermine rasellik in Europe in 2012/13 by "weakening the local competition" Quote
BigAl Posted February 14, 2012 Report Posted February 14, 2012 My rasellik supporting pal (it's not his fault he was dropped at birth) claims it's a loyallist/royallist plot to undermine rasellik in Europe in 2012/13 by "weakening the local competition" No offence to your mate MBT, but some of the Dims really are thick enough to believe it is some kind of conspiracy against them As for Brian Donohoe....well just don't get me started on him Quote
Madbadteacher Posted February 14, 2012 Report Posted February 14, 2012 Oh, no offense, he really is thick, couldna even get a job at Dounreay! Quote
tlg1903 Posted February 14, 2012 Report Posted February 14, 2012 Is there any-chance we can get the title of this thread changed back to "dirty filthy hun scumbag vermin news"? It really had a ring to it. Quote
baggy89 Posted February 14, 2012 Report Posted February 14, 2012 It's no surprise to me that he's not been paying HMRC when it looks likely that his plan all along was to take the club into administration to avoid paying the £50 odd million liability. Quote
Kowalski Posted February 14, 2012 Report Posted February 14, 2012 http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/17034043 Former Rangers director Paul Murray is willing to discuss a possible takeover of the ailing club. Murray would consider approaching the administrators now running matters at Ibrox but would not work with current owner Craig Whyte. "Would I come forward and help the club? Yes," Murray told BBC Scotland. "But I can't do that on my own, I would need to work with others. "Would I be prepared to do that alongside Craig Whyte? No." Quote

Goldie03 Posted February 14, 2012 Report Posted February 14, 2012 I know this is really a very small point in the midst of us all laughing our heads off but how come it has taken HMRC 10/11 years to realise that they are owed £50million - they have changed my tax code 4 times this year and everytime I have paid more tax!!

Kowalski Posted February 15, 2012 Report Posted February 15, 2012 Shamefully nicked from Mad. The great 'Scottish football needs Rangers' lie. The perpetual myth about Scottish football needing Rangers is blown wide open by this simple set of statistics:- 11 February 2012 Dunfermline 1-4 Rangers Attendance: 7,464 13 November 2010 Dunfermline 2-2 Raith Rovers Attendance: 7,158 23 April 2011 Dunfermline 2-1 Raith Rovers Attendance: 11,052 Quote
Jute Posted February 15, 2012 Report Posted February 15, 2012 We do need them for the TV deal and no tv money will seriously fuck the rest of us. Sky are on record saying if no old firm games then they would not invest in Scotland. Quote

Sky are on record saying if no old firm games then they would not invest in Scotland. Anybody know how much we would lose with no TV Deal? We only get the 4 games each a season on the TV (obviously the infirm get every other game)! Quote

Numbers were posted elsewhere a few wks ago, will try and look for them when I have a sec but money is split by league position not number of times on tv. Quote

Money is split by Position PLUS the teams get a payment every time they are on the TV (an infirm scam as they are on every week). Quote
Penfold Posted February 15, 2012 Report Posted February 15, 2012 Money is split by Position PLUS the teams get a payment every time they are on the TV (an infirm scam as they are on every week). I think it's only the home team who get the payment per game (around 70k I seem to have in my head?) to compensate for the loss in revenue with folk staying at home to watch it or reduced corporate sales for a lunchtime/sunday game. Quote

Really? I thought there was an even split eveyone got and then by position. Cup games etc are different with just those in the Live games getting extra cash. Quote
