Savage Henry Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Not sure if revenue from media contracts would be considered as "Assets". Just as Associate Members are entitled to their share of the Settlement money. Hope I'm wrong though.. I suspect that's the case. As I recall, when Ross County joined the league, initially we were given associate membership status, which basically meant we couldn't vote but still got what little cash came from TV, etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itwiznaeme Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Sally and Sardine's atitudes in this whole farce have pretty much echoed the club's general attitude over many years. How dare another team up their game against us. We demand to be in the Champions League every season. It's all the SPL/SFA's fault we are out of europe at the first hurdle to a team of posties, doctors, librarians, school teachers. We will sing our songs because the police aren't going to arrest 30,000 fans doing so. We won't pay our taxes or tell the SFA about second contracts. What they gonna do about it anyway, we are rangers!!!! etc, etc, etc. These two clowns are still living under the myth that they are untouchable, with the only defence they can come up with being, "But we are Rangers." Jardine should have been punted on day one of administration, and it will be interesting to see what happens on monday as on Off the Ball yesterday it was mentioned that on monday a number of non playing staff at the club were going to be given their jotters. Surely club ambassador what be high on the list? As for Sally he is probably a very lucky guy to still be at the club. If rangers hadn't went into administration and he fucked up the league like he did then the fans (as they did do early on) would be calling for his head. The chances are that this season if they were in the SPL (still as OldCo and this disgrace hadn't happened) he would prove yet again he hasn't got a clue what he is doing, and would be sacked. Legend or not. Excellent post! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itwiznaeme Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 The club is not an asset of the company, the club is the company. Instead of all this pish about agreeing a CVA, getting the shares from Craig Whyte etc, why not just buy the 'club' from the 'company' and leave the 'company behind'? Because it's impossible, they are one and the same thing. The club was formed as a private members association, and incorporated in 1899. The club is the company, and that is what is being liquidated. Precisely! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulo Sergio Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Rangers Football Club PLC (1873-2012) cheated their way to trophies etc and will be liquidated, which will end their tainted history. The Rangers Football Club (Sevco Scotland 5088, 2012-present) are a new entity and have won nothing, they have just bought Ibrox and Murray Park and have also bought the old club badge. Am I right? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlasgowCeltic.org Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 That's precisely what happened. How can a club be an asset of itself? Do we both agree that the club started off as a body of individuals who incorporated the club in 1899? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forever Diamond Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Here's a fun detail: so far as I can make out, Rangers will not be entitled to any share of TV money from broadcasting their SFL games. http://wingsland.pod...e-just-noticed/ That my friend if true is surely a blessing from the Gods 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big chair Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Hmm, so Div 3 has had sone reconstruction then and expanded to 12 teams, when did that happen? If you're going to make a point, at least get the basics right! So I can't be bothered feigning enough interest in the SFL structure to find out how many teams are in the 3rd division, sue me. All you've done is highlight another example of SFL greed triumphing over sporting integrity. While they bleat about league expansion at the top, they keep the door firmly bolted at the bottom to protect their share of the cake. Doncaster, Regan and a pressure group led by traynor? Remind me which positions those chaps hold in the SFL orginisation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyrshireTon Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Why didn't the SFL invite applications for the vacant league place? There was NO vacant place. The SFL had 30 teams in it. The SPL would not elect one of them up into become Club 12 until the SFL had put Sevco in one of its leagues. Unfortunately for the SPL, it wasn't the league they wanted them put in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itwiznaeme Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 (edited) Alex Thomson's View (Latest): http://blogs.channel...x-tribunal/2359 I don't doubt that justice is being done as to whether Rangers FC's tax arrangements were in order. But I have very serious doubts that justice is being seen to be done and the taxpayers are owed an explanation.

Fife Saint Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 The 'club' evolved into a company, whether to ltd. or plc. It's dead. The club is dead. They can stick their fingers in their ears all they want but it's over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bairney Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Currently re-reading 'Porno'; the sequel to Trainspotting. Just had a laugh at one of the scams Spud and Sickboy set up against a Rangers fan in Leith. Spud - 'So ah'm tellin um a wished ah kent Dode's pin number cause see if ah did , ah'd huv dipped the c**t's poakits for ehs caird, cause he's goat big dosh in that account - Aye, eh keeps gaun oan aboot how ye can choose yir ain yin in that Clydesdale Bank. When Dode came back we gits another one in and sits doon. But then something pure radge happens! The gadge takes ehs jayket off, n Sick Boy an me jist look at each other. It's pure thaire man, right in front ay us! Ye coud see Dodes tattoo wi 'Aye Ready' on one airm, and his King Billy oan the horse oan the other. Aye, n jist below the hoarse oan a scroll wis that PIN number, tattoed so thit eh wid never forget it: 1690 What follows is a massive scam against Rangers fans - this book is highly recommended reading 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim McLean's Ghost Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Rangers Football Club PLC (1873-2012) cheated their way to trophies etc and will be liquidated, which will end their tainted history. The Rangers Football Club (Sevco Scotland 5088, 2012-present) are a new entity and have won nothing, they have just bought Ibrox and Murray Park and have also bought the old club badge. Am I right? Not really. The SFA are the only arbiters of what is and isn't a football club. Parent companies are irrelevant. While Rangers PLC is going away and Sevco is coming in, the history and continuation of Rangers FC is completely unaffected unless the SFA deem otherwise. Transfer of the same SFA membership, rather than transferring the old membership means the SFA see Rangers as the same club. This is also the only legitimate way (maintaining sporting integrity) of delivering punishments to a football club operated by Sevco. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
