Club could not even afford captain's farewell gift
forlanssister replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
Given we had over £3m in the bank when we entered administration the headline while making great copy is obviously a lie, something more akin to, "Craig Whyte declined to pay for David Weirs' fairwell gift", would be more accurate and directed at the appropriate target. -
None of the prospective buyers nor Duff & Phelps for that matter have quite grasped that "Trust me" won't cut it with the fans any more.
-
It's not directed at you per se but at the board in general (apologies for the unintended confusion).
-
Why ? perhaps because their getting such an easy ride especially on here. Where's the clamber for them to identify to all the consortium members, how much is each member putting in?, will there be too great a conflict with their day job? can they devote enough of their time to the task ahead at RFC? Who's their front man in Scotland? Who are these UK Rangers men they've approached to sit on the board? Surely if the BK's were expected to answer such questions why not Bill Ng and his cohorts?

It's pretty obvious that Ticketus must think that the BK's obtaining a CVA (without Ticketus being in the pot) offers them the best return for their investors. It doesn't automatically follow that they view a CVA per se as offering them the best return. They may well prefer the liquidation route with Miller as opposed to a CVA with Ng (only Ticketus will know for sure). Non of the would be buyers have made public enough information for any of us to make a definitive decision period, getting someone to push your bid via twitter doesn't come across as being either a trait to inspire confidence nor a sign of openness, and the SE Asian equivalent of sitting by a radio in the African jungle listening for Celtic results is taking the piss to be honest. Personally I remain to be categorically convinced beyond doubt of any of the prospective buyers ability, plenty questions need to be asked of the BK's but at least we know who (some of them anyway) they are, whatever anybody's personal axe to grind is I don't think there's any dubiety surrounding their Rangers credentials. Mr Ng looks to have (or at least his family) plenty of cash, at least he knows what a football looks like, has experience of running a football club (whether successfully or not can be debated). Little to has been heard from Miller but his desire for "a creative solution" lets the cat out of the bag a bit, certainly no altruistic notions behind his interest. Duff &Phelps have been pushing their favoured non-liquidation liquidation since practicall day one, I fear that is where we're heading.
-
No guarantee that they would back a CVA they may well decide "f*&k it we'd be as well liquidating", I suppose the BK's may argue that they have negated that possibility at a reasonable potential cost.

Miller clarifies position and answers critics

There is no reason for a CVA to be unachievable what ever bidder prevails. -

Translation: I intend to wind up Rangers Football Club plc. -

Perhaps fees for handling the FTT.

I ain't your f*&king mate. I assume you mean you're rather your. I really don't give a flying f*&k whether you believe anything I post or not. I'll post what I like when I like whether you like it or not, (the admins can remove anything I post any time they like that is their prerogative) I'm led to believe that on the 1st of July 2085 that the sun shall rise in the the east believe that or not I simply don't give a f*&k. -
Be interesting to know how many of the hours billed by Duff & Phelps are for David Grier.

How's it spin? Can you prove it's spin? Can you prove it's untrue? Or are you applying a different set of rules to yourself? -

And you know it's spin about the USA bid eh?, since you know so much about it why don't you give us all the low down on it (remember to name your source/s too!) I'll be content with whoever wins so long as they do not liquidate RFC plc, be that Brian Kennedy,Blue Knights, Singaporeans,Germans even Yanks. -
It's getting like a Benny Hill sketch!

If their identities are revealed could you check to see if they are/were directors/office bearers with VFB Stuttgart, please. -
Perhaps one of the bidders opting for a CVA will prefer to honour the debentures ergo removing them from the CVA pot.
-
You prefer liquidation ?

Look I really don't give a flying f*&k whether you believe it or not, if you think I'd reveal a source just to satisfy you then you're f*&king deluded, if the admin think it's pish then they'll delete my post, I'd have no problem with that. -

What in just the same way the German bid was a pile of pish this morning? -

I'm not in the habit of lying and spinning for anybody. I'd never reveal a source either. Believe it or not it won't put me up or down any. -

Perhaps it's the lure of a 5% finders fee + fat 3 year contract as Chairman (might be an SFA spanner in the works there!) -

The American bid is Bill Miller (closely associated with Club9) and our very own Andrew Ellis. -
