Glad to see he is demanding accountability. I assume he will now be coughing up the tax and national insurance payments he avoided the first time round by being paid via an EBT.

I agree totally. They are both an utter disgrace to journalism. (And that's really saying something when the media is stuffed with throbbers like Traynor and Young). I just find it beyond belief that a bigoted blogger is berating another bigoted blogger...for being a bigoted blogger!!!! Oh....the irony......

Ah yes. Another "unbiased" point of view from a ranting lunatic who left the NUJ before he was booted out on his arse.

You may think he's "Great", but I can assure you, the rest of us think he's a c**t.

Clearly, Chucky doesn't have a budget for succulent lamb dinners.

And through it all, unquestioning silence from the media. Truly, truly shameful.

It does seem a bit off the scale that the Sevco supporters don't seem to want to know what's going on in the background. Chucky may well just be an independent opportunist, or he may be bent over with Whyte being balls deep in him. It is staggering that after all this time, no one really knows what's going on. Rangers supporters, please, please, please start asking difficult questions about the whole set up at Ibrox. If something similar was going on at Man Utd, Everton, Arsenal etc., you could be pretty certain that the English media would be all over it like a tramp on chips. Let's face it, Rangers were a multi million pound industry with an international brand that's been exported all over the world. In many ways, they were one of the international public faces of Scotland. Surely the extent of investigation into its demise should amount to slightly more than a few internet bloggers? (Who have done a fantastic job so far, by the way). For the love of God, surely our whole country deserves more than that? If the media in Scotland are incapable of carrying out any type of investigative journalism, it begs the question; what would happen if Scotland were an independent country? Would the media be equally lazy if Russian gangsters decided that a small independent country would be the ideal place to control and launder crime money through? Would they just stand aside for the price of a succulent lamb dinner? Shame on you Scottish media. The public deserves better that the current wall of silence.

Obvious one that. It would have to be David Gold from West Ham. The conspiracy theorists in Govan would have the full set then, Green, Whyte and Gold.........

Because no other league wants you? Mind you, if you don't give a shit about Scotland, you won't mind Deadco being stripped of those Scottish titles will you? Good work fella!

Ah yes, John Greig as a director. That'll be the same John Greig who was a director when Rangers debts were spiralling out of control, and the EBT investigation by HMRC was under way. Good old loony, Leggo. What a tube.

Haven't been on this thread for a while. Judging by this drivel being posted, I haven't missed much.

Got to admit, I'm a bit disappointed in this latest rant from Leggo. It just doesn't seem to reach his usual levels of paranoid lunacy, we've become used to from him. He normally seems to be descending further into madness with each blog. His last one included references to Naziism and even called Jim Traynor a "fine, hard working, honest, committed and professional journalist". C'mon Leggo, get back on the super lager!

I thought this was all pretty straightforward. Rangers are bust. Any money owed to them is now earmarked for creditors. Sevco are exactly what it says on the tin. A new club with no ties to Rangers. To gain registration ahead of more established clubs, Sevco agreed to pay Rangers outstanding football debts. That's to say, they "bought" the registration by agreeing to pay a defunct clubs football debt. If they had wished to be Rangers, this would have been entirely possible, had they been willing to service Rangers debt. Sevco were not willing to do this. The only ties Sevco have with Rangers, is that they have bought some stuff that used to belong to Rangers. This makes them "a company which owns some stuff that used to belong to Rangers". It clearly doesn't make them Rangers. For example, if I bought Andy Cameron's old joke book, would that then make me a comedian?..................................Ahhh bollocks, ................ wrong example.................

You're right that it's ridiculous. Has he paid it, or hasn't he? This shouldn't be a complicated investigation for any half decent investigative journalist. The fact that no one seems to have an answer says all that needs to be said about how fat, lazy and second rate the Scottish media is becoming.

It's human nature to not look away when a train smash is happening in front of you. The strangest part of the whole saga is the blind acceptance of Charles Green. After the events of Murray and Whyte, you would assume that Green Rangers would be treated with some scepticism. There are still so many unanswered questions out there, I would have thought the Green Rangers fans would be bombarding forums such as RM. Oldco got into the state they ended up in precisely because of the culture of not asking hard questions. (A culture that may have been led by the likes of James Traynor, but it was also assisted by various stakeholders at Oldco). However, it just seems to be another big love-in at Ibrox, with everything on the periphery being ignored. I've no axe to grind with ordinary Rangers fans. If you pay your money, week in week out to support the club, then you deserve to at least be told what is going on. I have no doubt that the Scottish media are going to find it hard to get out of the culture of sucking up to Ibrox in the hope of being thrown scraps from the table and it's no surprise to me that many of them are still not pushing for answers, but to be honest, the biggest part of this whole debacle that I can't fathom is why Rangers supporters aren't demanding more clarity about the current set up.

My, my. What a "co-incidence". This particular rollercoaster is still hurtling round the circus, and as usual, the Scottish press are ignoring it. It's becoming more and more clear that something is not right in the state of Newco, yet there seems to be no real appetite from ordinary Newco fans to demand clarity on it all. If anything, there seems to be 100% support for the current regime. Bomber Broon may be a couple of coconuts short of a palm tree, but he does have something of a point about the intentions of Green and co. I couldn't see the fans of any other club just putting up and shutting up with this type of situation, and I've got to admit, I'm really surprised that Newco fans aren't kicking off about these "alleged" links back to Whyte. It looks like this carnival isn't over yet.

£40 Million? Not a chance. Anyone actually hoping to gain control of Newco are highly unlikely to try and do it via a share issue valued at this price. They are more likely to sit it out now and wait for the issue to fail. As Green and co. start bleeding money trying to prop the team up, desperation will set in and the price will drop off a cliff. It's obvious really. If Newco were worth £40 million, then a consortium would already have bid for it at something near that price. Newco fans may as well flush their money down the bog. Anything raised by this will be trousered immediately by Green and co.

No.

I thought that this was subject to gaining a license?

But they're not in a league.

Severely? Surely not confiscating Sally's half time pies?

Mind you, D&P will have played a blinder if they have sold Green the assets without the media rights. FCUKed indeed.

They may not care about the Ramsdens Cup, but they need it. Games equate to cashflow, and no games = no cash, and that club is costing Green money every day.

Was he licking the window?

Can anyone imagine any of this fannying about if it was a diddy club that had cheated?
