Done the ring of steall a few weekends ago - epic day out. One of the best i've done and great view of nevis and the grey corries!

you know, the strange thing is that walter smith spent very little if anything in the first couple of years in charge when the club realised they needed to get their debts down. The only difference here is that someone else is dictating the measures. Also, they will still have easily the most expensive squad bar celtic in scotland if most players resign. I think it's pretty lenient and will only be damaging if rangers fail to sign up their key players.

the thing i don't understand about the cha, is that if the new owners have 8.5 mill, then why aren't rangers forced to sell assets to the tune of the balance or at least closer to the balance i.e. 60p in the £. If they were forced to sell murray park, the land around ibrox they own, alan mcgregor, naismith, aluko, davis etc then that would surely get them a bit closer to paying their debts. Seems to me that the CVA is just continued avoidance of paying tax.

not sure if this has been posted add this thread is i possible to keep up with, but the tribunal has likened the tax evasion by rangers as being on a par with the serious charge of match fixing. They have broken so many serious rules for ; running a business, having any form of sporting ethics, all the way to full blown tax evasion. This is all not including having the most bigoted and racist supporters in the UK. mental!

they are beyond retarded. One has brandished graeme souness as a "traitor". I assume that is because he signed the first catholic to play for the club in the late 80s. A few are thinking they may get straight into the epl due to them being linked to a buyer with epl links. I'm starting to think it may be better for rangers to keep existing as at least we know where these people are on a saturday afternoon. just wait til they discover fire.....

so pretty much a summary of what is going to happen is: Rangers go into liquidation and all creditors incl the British tax payers and public services are humped for all money the club have not bothered to pay due to living a life they could not afford. Rangers by some strange loophole get to lose all the debt but manage to trade under the same name in the same stadium. Due to being bullied by the afore mentioned, the SFA and SPL immediately buckle and impose no sanctions on Rangers. If this is how it pans out, then Hearts, Killie and Dundee Utd should do the exact same. All the money you should have spent on paying creditors can now be spent on players (well, not all or you'll be back to square one). I've missed 90% of this thread and have kind of lost interest in the whole saga, but i'm assuming now that this is how it's going to pan out.

dunno about that. my idea solution is that the sfa bulldoze hampden, sell the land to a property developer and the scottish national team move to ibrox and rent to queens park. Ibrox is a first class stadium and would be a great home to the national team - all that needs done is change the signage! The Scottish Football Museum can be built n the site of the car park and Murray park can be taken over by the SFA. The tax payers have pretty much paid for both facilities anyway and with the sale of the land at hampden, the SFA would be quids in. In the mean time i'm sure rangers could ground share with thistle until they are in a position to build a new stadium
