Although Spartans say they won't bother applying if the newco has to go that route http://www.heraldscotland.com/mobile/sport/football/newco-will-kill-off-path-to-sfl.17895753

I wonder why he felt it necessary to mention Dark Mingwall had been there.

Fourth Lanark?

It's been a wee while since anyone said "quantum". I'd like to thank Malcolm Murray for getting the word back out there. New Rangers chairman believes reaction to newco club has got 'out of hand'. About 1:50 in

Green & Co pay £5.5m for the empty husk, offer to sell to Team Cardigan for 200% profit, job done.

Well done that man. I'm sure you'll understand that for humanitarian reasons I'll have to jettison some principles.

I took the "support your local team" thing to mean that if you're lucky enough to be from Arbroath you'd support Arbroath. Or (if luck hasn't smiled on you and) you're from Dundee you'd support one of the teams there etc etc Then you grow up, move away because of work/education/love interest/prison sentence and you take your allegiance with you. As opposed to being born and bred in a town miles away from Glasgow and being an OF follower. PS - I've always been behind the "support your local team" idea. Now I'm not so sure. Having moved to Glasgow for uni and stayed because of work I find myself with 2 kids and their local team is, er.... rangers

I don't think "moving house/switching team" is the issue there. You grew up in Arbroath, yes? How many fellow Lichtie fans were in your year through primary and secondary? I knew precious few. Mostly OF or Arabs even though they were Arbroath born and bred. That's the issue.

Your CVA offer and the details (or lack of) about how badly you were going to shaft the creditors was issued on May 29th. Therefore, they couldn't comment on it back in February or March you blithering nincompoop.

From the D&P statement Would it not be better to find a new way to operate given the bother they find themselves in now?

Alright, which one of you lot got bored on RM and decided to text the BBC Sportsound thing to liven things up?

Apologies, didn't realise I'd C&P'd that much. How so? ETA: Ach, who cares. You interpret it one way, I interpret it another., Difference of opinion. It's Friday and I've had enough "differences of opinion" for one week.

@BBCAlLamont - Oh Dave. You angered the beast

And it would likely be straight back out of the CoS with a flea in their ear after what Lord Glennie said: But as we've seen one senior judge type can disagree with another senior judge type's interpretation. So who's to say a third senior judge type won't disagree with the second senior judge type. More money for QC's, less for grass seed.

No idea what conditions but it's been fairly widely reported that the interest rate is 8%.

The Herald spoke to a couple of tax "experts" and one of them said waiting this long isn't unusual. He'd had a case last year that finished in January and the result wasn't issued until August.

Wee bit on Good Morning Scotland earlier about RFC(IA). Starts with Billy Dodds being a tit and goes on to talk to Andrew Smith from SoS. Thoroughly enjoyed the "...it would not be the disastrious scenario drama queens like Billy Dodds and Chick Young and the ilk paint it to be..." line Good Morning Scotland link 2hr 16m in.

6 month transfer embargo, you say? July/August 2012, January/July/August 2013 & January 2014, right?

Pot, kettle. Kettle, pot. You're doing a fine job there. Although if you could rein it in a wee bit please. Getting awful hard to read with all the spittle flecked replies.

Thanks.

Apologies if it's been discussed already but could someone explain this bit of the CVA please So lets say the CVA goes tits up because the club are no longer in the cup or the creditors all tick the "f**k Off" box. Does this mean Green gets the results of an approved CVA but without having to pay the creditors? Or what?

One of the relevant Conditions of the offer is 4.22.6 all consents or other requirements of the SPL and SFA having been obtained or complied with so that Rangers Football Club can continue to participate in such domestic leagues and competitions as it currently participates in. So competing in the cup is one of the hinges. I wouldn't like to guess at what the SFA will do now.

This went downhill really fast
