roverthemoon Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 So did Sir David 'tried to crack on to Joanna Lumley' Murray and look where that got him. At least No.8 is still here, whatever happened to that Murray bloke, he's gone a bit quiet......? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonsilitis Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 A number of consequences of liquidation: 1) All players are effectively free agents. You cannot be forced to transfer to Newco 2) I cannot see why the liquidator will be bound by a deal concluded by the administrators five minutes before the liquidator is appointed. It may be though that BDO have had a look at the deal and will let it stand but then again, why would they when all the money is to pay Duff and Phelps? 3) S216 of the Insolvency Act says that Newco cannot have a name so similar as to suggest a relationship with the old company without the leave of the court. In practical terms, the liquidator may be prepared to sell the name or alternatively, it might be in the deal already done. One way or another, the leave of the court will be required There is also grave doubt about Greens ability to fund Newco and I would expect that the football authorities will require similar guarantees from Newco about being able to fulfil their fixtures as they wanted from Livingston and Gretna. Like those two clubs they are unlikely to get them and so Rangers should suffer the same fate - relegation to the third division. Its all good news probably for Dundee but maybe Dunfermline plus I would have thought that the losing play off finalist from the lower leagues will now step up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutton34 Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 From BBC : Another huge issue is the role of majority shareholder Craig Whyte. The value of Rangers shares no longer really matters when a club is being liquidated but what DOES matter is the matter of the floating charge. The Swhytester might make a few ££ out of this to pay for his lawyer when HMRC come knocking 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glen Sannox Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Not sure the celebrations are justified, i've still got a horrible feeling they're getting out of this relatively unscathed with history intact. The speak from HMRC is very disappointing, and i'm at a loss to understand how transferring the assets to the Newco for £5.5 million is even remotely above board, much sadness Please, someone tell me otherwise! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve McQueen Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 When is the vote for changing the voting structure coming back up? Day after liquidation? 10-1 = 90.9% 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteRoseKillie Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Just been asking myself the same question. I think they are officially "Rangers Football Club" Can they just alter to say "Glasgow Rangers Football Club", or do they have to distance themselves further from the old brand? I believe the only exception to complete rebranding is if there is a geographical connection, hence Middlesborough, Leeds and Charlton kept their basic nomenclature. Wouldn't seem to apply to this lot..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~~~ Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 2 months ago they were stating "we must get a CVA so we can keep our history" So does liquidation mean they lose their history??” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xbl Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 I have a question actually, now the CVA was going to be funded with what was effectively a loan, but surely they can't buy £5.5 million pounds worth of stadium and training centre with a loan? Do they not actually have to produce hard cash for this? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rushdenhibee Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 They've cheated their way to success by financial trickery and cheating, then expect the tax payer to foot the bill through a CVA. Off to the thrid division you cheating gets!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeeHectorPar Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 But the player registrations will have been sold to the newco before the oldco is liquidated. Don't think they will have been sold, simply transferred, but the players can refuse the transfer if they wish. They will be free agents. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God of War Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 (edited) Can we start to register names? If we got various permutations of Glasgow Rangers FC etc all registered before a newco agreement they would have to go for something totally different?

GirondistNYC Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 1339511099[/url]' post='6327238']the ones that have been most recently resurfaced? Yes, I know, sorry etc. That's terrible, etc. For shame Sir, etc. But now that you mention it Ibrox is currently available cheap, has planning restrictions and environmental issues but has loads of parking. It would make an excellent replacement for Dale Farm.... Green may yet be gazzumped. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
