thelegendthatis Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 (edited) Anyone got access to the article in the Times (london one) today about who has invested in Sevco/Rangers. All I could find is this reference below, from another web site. Abraaj chief emerges as leading Rangers shareholder The TimesBlue Pitch Holdings, a vehicle controlled by Abraaj Capital chief executive Arif Naqvi, is the largest shareholder of Rangers Football Club with a 15.68% stake, according to details of the Scottish franchise's top investors published following pressure from fans' groups. Other prominent investors include Margarita Funds Holding Trust, a fund believed by Rangers to be based in the Turks and Caicos Islands, which holds 10.19%, and finance company Zeus Capital. A consortium of almost 19 investors, led by Rangers chief executive and venture capitalist Charles Green, acquired the club out of liquidation in June for £5.5m. Read it in the paper version this morning. Interesting list of people that the Bennett Brothers will no doubt love dearly. Yes they will have wealth off the radar, but why invest in a Scottish Division 3 club that is years away from playing at any meaningful level. Unless they are in for a quick buck. P.S. Nearly forgot. Charley boy was referred to in the article as a venture capital specialist. Not as a saviour, good guy, or even a mason.

Booker_d Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 "Can". Important word there. In other words, it might happen. I seriously doubt it will though.

H Wragg Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Why? Because they are 'The Rangers'. Do keep up! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, if I was Hector, I'd reckon that banner was seriously taking the piss. They might as well have put one up saying "f**k You, Your Majesty. You Can Whistle For Your Cash". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wunfellaff Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Where did the herald piece on the floating charge go? ? don't know why the post was deleted but here it is.. http://www.scotsman.com/sport/football/sfl-division-three/craig-whyte-to-claim-millions-from-sale-of-rangers-assets-1-2588874 Published on Friday 19 October 2012 11:57 FORMER Rangers owner Craig Whyte has claimed that he stands to receive millions of pounds from the remains of the old Rangers. The businessman sold the club’s assets to Charles Green’s Sevco consortium earlier this year. Whyte said that his RFC Group, through which he bought the club and paid off its £18m debt to the Lloyds Banking Group, held a security over assets sold to Mr Green for £5.5m earlier in the year. He told The Herald newspaper: “Everyone knows there was a security there. All these things are being dealt with.” If valid, this security will grant him fist access to any funds remaining from the company’s liquidation. Duff & Phelps, the administrators of the company’s disassembly, have reported £2.3m of funds remaining and estimated a further £2.8m in outstanding assets in the form of transfer fees. Uefa is also being asked to pay an unknown figure for the participation of Rangers players in games played by their national sides. In the report, published in July, Duff & Phelps denied the notion that Whyte and his company were owed anything. Ticketus, the London ticket agency to whom Whyte sold Rangers season ticket rights, remain in pursuit of the £20m paid to the RFC Group in order to fund its takeover of the club. Whyte broke his silence this week to make a series of claims in a BBC Scotland interview which have angered the Ibrox club’s current chief executive and administrators Duff & Phelps. When asked how much he had made out of his involvement with Rangers, Whyte refused to answer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is Tedi when you need him? He knows about these things better than I do. Hopefully when he comes online he can give me a summary. I am potentially into the share issue to the tune of £10,000. What should I do? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huckleberry Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Well from what i can deduce from the scotlaw blog, the whole thing is a boiler room scam perpetrated by someone with previous experience in such things. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
