Thats why no one would touch it eh? Except whyte.

The reason why no one would buy it outright was down to the EBT case. At the time of Whyte taking over we had a bank debt of £18 millon which was being well maintained and was coming down year on year. Within a 9 month period Whyte had increased the debt to £56 million, not including operating costs or the EBT case.

This was debunked ages ago. See my previous edit. When Whyte took over BANK debt was £18million. This figure reduced to £0 while Craig Whyte was there, as he securitised Season Tickets instead. The £56 million figure you refer to is directly comparable with the £65million from the accounts I have linked. So therefore it looks as though he reduced debt in the period after he took over.

One thing he definitely did not do was increase debt from £18 million to £56 million. And since I have explained this before in reply to you (I have very few rep points so the post in question was very easy to track down (#111314)) I have to assume it is deliberate misrepresentation of the facts on your part.

He increased the debt to £56 million with the Ticketus deal and by withholding the P.A.Y.E and N.I. Or are we not counting that £27 milllion to Ticketus and £21 million or so to HMRC? Edit too add, he may have paid the £18 million from the Ticketus deal but that still impinged on the overall debt by another £9 million.

They were numerous people who came to buy the club outright from Minty, but only if he personally took on the tax liabilities if the BTC went against Rangers, which he refused to do. That shows how much of a snake he really was, and how little love for the club he really had actually had.

By purchasing the club outright i was adhering to taking on all debt and liability, including the EBT case. I'm well aware that there was interest in taking over the club without the EBT liability and tbh you can't blame anyone for stipulating about the EBT case. We also realise that Murray had no intention of paying any liability, after all he was another who never put any of his money into his original purchase.

The debt was simply switched to ticketus and increased to £27m, not mention withholding payments of NI and PAYE etc among other things.

Please put a bit more effort in to your posts, oh great debunker...

[Joey Jo Jo Junior Shabadoo]

Perhaps you should read the front page again.

£27.1m was the figure for total debt, it is right on the 1st page.

The potential liabilities include £36.5M potential tax bill, which of course turned out not to be a liability at all, you cannot treat this as debt, it was however a noose round company's neck, which seriously affected the sale of the club.

OK, here we go:

The £27.1m (note 25) includes bank debt, finance loans etc. It does not include other liabilities like trade creditors, taxes and accruals which count towards the total amount the company owe. If the company weren't due to pay it, it wouldn't be sitting on the balance sheet.

So the £65 million holds when in comparison with the £56million. That was the total amount Rangers owed at the end, not only the financial debts.

In those statements there is no account made of the potential tax bill, so I am afraid your last sentence is incorrect. P.35 Note 27 'Contingent Assets/Liabilities' only mentions a possible £100,000 inflow with no mention whatsoever of a potential tax bill.

[bennett]

So you would have preferred to go into liquidation mid season, that would have better would it?

And if that happened would you say Sir Davey boy might have been responsible too? Go on you can do it.

The circumstances would have been different then, liquidation may not have happened.

Forgot aboot him.

Living like a pauper (aye right) in his luxury holiday home in the Cayman Islands after being declared bankrupt for around £11M? oh those poor creditors, someone must have a list, Rico?

They do love their double standards, all the easier to catch them out i suppose.

I don't know the breakdown of the £56million. I think I got that figure off of you. All I am saying is that the level of debt that Craig Whyte bought into was over £60 million per the accounts, so how could he possibly have increased it by £38million as claimed by you earlier?

I sense once I get a link to explain the breakdown of the £56 million I am going to look like a right twat though...

Any takers?

Look it's been pointed out to you by many people that under Whyte the debt increased. There are no if's or but's about this, it's a simple fact which can't be ignored or deflected.

That's what I wrote. I just mentioned that using Bank Debt as a comparative to Total debt is erroneous.

Let's look at it this way. A person takes over a PLC by borrowing £27 million from a finance company in order to clear the existing bank debt of £18 million. Straight away the original amount of debt of £18 million is still there, plus an additional £9 million. That debt is now £27 million, add to that £21 million unpaid P.A.Y.E and N.I.

That's an overall debt of £48 million plus whatever additional debt he added, off the top of my head i couldn't say. So you have the original debt of £18 million plus £9 million plus £21 million. From those three figures he added £30 million to the debt, nothing was cleared, all he did was add to any existing debt. The £56 million was the sum at liquidation,not including the EBT liability.

All I have written is correct. Lifted straight from the accounts. With references so you don't even need to go through the whole thing. No ifs or buts. Just because you don't understand doesn't mean it isn't true.

You're wasting your time with this guy Youngsy, it's obviously an alias on the wind up.

Got a link for that? (actual evidence mind). Not that I'm doubting a paragon of virtue such as yourself but as I'm sure you'll be the first to agree "it's been pointed out to you by many people" is not really enough. It's been pointed out to you by many people that your old club died because they were cheats but I don't think you're going to take their word for it are you?

ETA: I'm really not on the wind up btw, I'm really really curious how a total liability of 56Million a year after a reported liability of 65Million shows the total debt went up.

All I am saying is that Ranger's total debt did not go up from £18million, far from it. It was already way, way, more than that. Per the accounts. If the total liabilities were £56m at the end, then it is not a million miles from where it was when he took over.

And I managed to find this:

Of course it went up from £18 million, commonsense tells you that. He took out £27 million from Ticketus to pay off the £18 million bank debt but that amount was still applied to the PLC plus an additional £9 million, there's the increase. Add to that the P.A.Y.E. and N.I. non payments, there is another increase, that is indisputable. When the liquidation total was formalised it included the debenture bondholders sum total, just under £7 million plus other debts. There is the approx £56 million. I'm afraid you're well out on this. So can you explain how taking out £27 million and withholding approx £21 million due to HMRC doesn't increase a debt.
