BinoBalls Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Love the Dave King statement. Admits they signed players they otherwise couldn't, then a direct threat to anyone wanting to punish them for it. Glib, shameless and totally rattled. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strichener Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 If it was as you say illegal, we will see arrests being made. If its as you say that is. I'll ask you the same question I asked Kinky and maybe you will be honest enough to answer - Does all criminal activity result in charges and arrest? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattBairn Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 (edited) Overspending, aye maybe bit but was it against SPL rules? Were we the only team to have debts? Hearts Dundee utd, abersheep etc have all recently carried large debts (most now replaced with soft loans) yet Rangers were singled out due to an orchestrated campaign which gained momentum. Ebt's are despite what you read not against the law and as LNS stated did not breach SPL rules. Yet we're apparently to be punished again because the vocal minority are screaming and shouting. Rangers also paid off all football debts despite being accused of " accepting no responsibility " and were punished severely yet some people just won't let it go. If it were Celtic most bears would leave them to it, like we did in the 90's, none of our business. "These fans" aren't on a moral crusade, its nothing more than a witch hunt, settling percieved scores and trying to justify it all as sporting integrity. Strings are being pulled by a handful of bloggers and a lot of people are lapping it up. The large debts are one thing but being liquidated and returning wanting to keep your history and trophies is another thing entirely.It's not about Rangers being singled out and 'punished' as their scenario IS different. As I said in my initial post, I know other clubs ran up debts but none of them were liquidated which is THE major difference. Being liquidated, returning with zero debt (as well as being allowed straight back into the league structure despite Airdrieonians being denied a few years earlier to discourage liquidation and returning debt free) AND still trying to claim the history and titles is completely different to the scenarios you mentioned. Can't you see why that would annoy people? Celtic in the 90s is a completely different scenario to the Rangers one from 2012 onwards. Surely you can see that. It's apples and oranges. Celtic weren't liquidated and didn't default on their debt due to that. It's not even close to the same thing. The Club vs company thing (as I previously mentioned) is the perfect example of being happy to take the glory of the overspending but not wanting to take any of the responsibility. I'm not as bothered about this as many are but I just can't see why some Rangers fans seem to feel so persecuted and can't understand why fans would feel annoyed by it. It's fairly obvious to me. Edit to add - I'm genuinely looking to get your point of view and I'm not trolling or trying to 'bait' anyone. As I said earlier, I won't blame anyone for sticking up for their club but I just wonder how you see it, and if you try to be unblinkered. I try to be unblinkered with my team but I know it's a difficult thing to do... Edited November 12, 2015 by MattBairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE KING Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Great statements from Rangers ,yesterday, let's all be mates and work together for the sake of Scottish Footbal...next day, We'll Fukin kill kill each and every last one of you mudderfukkers!! Personally I think the Convicted Criminal who has a suspended jail sentence over his head and could be in jail next month , should be trusted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mythstoliveby Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Celtic weren't liquidated and didn't default on their debt due to that. It's not even close to the same thing. Yes, Fergus McCann insisted that every debtor got their money back. The easy, and immoral, thing to have done was to dive into admin or liquidation and walk away from those debts. Turns out that maybe it is celtic who are the ones who "don't do walking away"! If only a Fergus McCann had come forward during rangers time of need. Instead they got Whyte, Green and King...... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Stubbs Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 I've not followed this whole thing very closely. Has King done anything at all in terms of keeping his promises, investing in the club etc or is releasing seething, threatening press releases really all you need to do impress Rangers fans? Even after the last few years? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Nederlander Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 :lol: This is utterly glorious. ETA: http://forum.rangersmedia.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=289304 We'd all back our clubs(companies) to the hilt, and the 'Rangers' fans have certainly had a tough time of it, but it still totally baffles the f'ck out of me that they think the BBC, radio stations, SFA etc. jave been against them - how utterly deluded can you get? Seriously! ? They like the statement though, especially the last bit, although I have to admit I don't really understand it ... is he saying he'll issue another statement if folk don't just move on and pretend nothing has happened? Is he giving the nod to some windows getting panned in? Should I as a Falkirk supporter be scared or will our positive vote for them to start life in the First Division make us exempt? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your question is too vague and doesn't fit in with your post. If someone/company is found guilty of what some are calling 'tax evasion' then they would be arrested.
