Bendarroch Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 I think the logic of the situation tends to support your view. If he's short of readies, he won't get lawyers to reresent him unless he shows he can pay, so he's unlikely to be able to appeal. The castle on Speyside ain't worth more than a couple of million, all his other assets in UK likely to be seized to pay Ticketus. Looks like all he can do is feck off out of here, hunker down in Monaco and hold on to what he has there. Life's a bitch, eh? Probably. Fucked, of course, is a relative term in this context of financial whizz-kiddery with their offshores, double-entry, cross-receivable income streams from the money tree that ordinary Joe rarely has access to. I'm sure Whyte will be able to struggle on. More's the pity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Tennis Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Green apologies for being a rascist... http://www.rangers.co.uk/news/headlines/item/3723-notice-of-complaint-statement tumblr_m3zeod5xo21rtfkn6o1_500.jpg Genuine inquiry time again: Why does Green feel the need to say: " I was actually trying to make the point, albeit clumsily, that I am not a racist."? Was anyone accusing him of being one? I got the feeling from the original article that he was simply volunteering his bizarre perspective. I'd like to close by making the point that I'm not in fact a camel. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteRoseKillie Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 are you suggesting Green could be kicked to death by an angry hate mob outside Ibrox ? and the Sportscene camera's were there to capture all the action...... If this gets any more embarrassing for the bears, you might not see him leaving ibrox..... But check out the Mourinho-style laundry basket battering down Edmiston Drive... -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once the dust settlesa on this lot, Bendarroch, have a look at your new club, or your new new club, and tell us "fucked" is a relative term! Welcmome back, btw - how's it going? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is why he probably got to be pals with Green............ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ned Nederlander Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 (edited) Genuine inquiry time again: Why does Green feel the need to say: " I was actually trying to make the point, albeit clumsily, that I am not a racist."? Was anyone accusing him of being one? I got the feeling from the original article that he was simply volunteering his bizarre perspective. I'd like to close by making the point that I'm not in fact a camel. He stumbled onto the subject on the back of Paulo Di Canio being in the news. I think it's fair to say that Charles didn't realise he was racist - he began by saying that he doesn't care what race, religion or political beliefs people have he would still hire them and I think that's genuine - he compounded it though by stating that 'do-gooders and puritanical people' would say he that couldn't call Imran 'My Paki friend', It's not that he thinks it's wrong - it's that do-gooders think it's wrong !! He wouldn't think twice about hiring minorities but he still sees them as a minorities - he still sees them as a 'pakis' or 'darkies'!

eindhovendee Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 I tried to explain what's going on in Scottish football to some of the non Scottish sub contractors on site this week. About Murray, Green and Whyte, about how clubs are fighting like cats in a sack over reconstruction, about the 11-1 voting system, about the diddy revolt in the summer, about the DAB boycott, about fairer distribution of money, about the agendas of Doncaster, Regan and Longmuir, about the questions around Masterton/HBOS, about what's happening at Tynecastle, about the failure of the MSM to ask questions..................it just went on and on. In the end, even I couldn't keep up with what I was saying. f**k knows what they were thinking as they watched me get more and more animated and pissed off. There just doesn't seem to be any end game in sight. I've tried this a few times with English lads asking what had actually happened and had the same problem. Once you start explaining just the basics as you understand them you realise this is an epic tale. The one thing that amazes some of them is that Mr. Charles Green is now in charge, a few more knowledgeable punters remember him from Sheffield United. The one thing that amazes me is how we managed to avoid him. He had all the nutty credentials to try and take over us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wouldn't think twice about hiring minorities but he still sees them as a minorities - he still sees them as a 'pakis' or 'darkies'! Ah right, the Di Canio background to the story makes sense. I was struck by what I heard Wattie Smith saying on the Radio today. It was something along the lines of Green needing to be more careful in expressing himself. It sounded like a very 'Rangers' response, reminiscent of official advice given to fans regarding sectarain singing. It's rarely 'don't sing such songs because they're intinsically wrong' but more 'don't sing these songs because we'll get in trouble.' Green doesn't need to re-assess his outlook, it seems. He just needs to get better at keeping it secret. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't touch him with a bargepole, he may possibly be a liar, a crook and a fantasist, but not in the same league as good old GDS. I don't think Charles is quite mad enough to go near us yet. Give it a couple of years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thelegendthatis Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Rangers: Police carry out raids on Whyte club purchase Continue reading the main story Related StoriesPolice to probe Rangers tax 'leaks' Police have carried out a series of raids relating to the purchase of Rangers Football Club by Craig Whyte from Sir David Murray. Police Scotland said they had "carried out a number of searches" in at addresses in both Scotland and England. The statement said: "These searches related to both domestic and business premises. "This remains an ongoing investigation, and no further information can be provided at this stage". The story that has no end in sight. And the liquidators haven't even reported yet. Interesting that this move happens within weeks of Police Scotland being formed. Does this mean there is less influence from the Strathclyde Masons and blue noses in uniform? Oh, the next 3 or 4 years are going to be fun. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
