    Didn't stop AJ and PM finding out about Whyte did it?
  2. RANGERRAB
    He didnt do a very good job then did he?
  3. RANGERRAB
    And,of course, was SDM forced to sell to Whyte ? No work was done to 'tidy up' Whyte's business history. AJ and PM said plenty about him at the time

    Unfortunately I'd need to disagree. I dont think our youths are good enough and this was one of the few things McCoist got right. For example, the likes of McKay and Crawford dont seem to be able to get a game for Morton !!! Only McLeod looks anywhere near what we require IMO
  5. RANGERRAB
    Darren McGregor?

    Someone once said on a forum(dont think it was this one) was that when Rangers went to the bottom division it was like winning the lottery for any SPL journeymen who happened to be out of contract at that time.In order to get them to play in the bottom tier we had to pay them a higher rate than they'd have got elsewhere.And that's what happened. money well spent? Probably not.

    We didnt BUY any players in the summer we acquired a number of players on Bosmans and maybe that is part of the problem i.e. Trying to do things on the cheap
  8. RANGERRAB
    Who was the other bidder? CG?

    The bonuses to which you refer are small beer in comparison to what I've read it would cost to get rid off Ally, I've read it would cost £1.6m. If that is true then serious questions need to be asked
  10. RANGERRAB
    It wasn't the current board who set Ally's onerous remuneration contract.It was Martin bloody Bain and it got TUPE'd over to the newco.FWIW I think they would have got rid off him by now were it not for the exorbitant costs involved. How this will end I have no idea
  11. RANGERRAB
    Depressing isn't it? It wouldn't be so bad if you could see genuine progress since 2012 & the team was good to watch but neither has happened. Those who constantly attack the board(and some of their criticism is valid I agree) need to realise also that significant resources such as this £20m salaries figure have been made available to a manager who continues not to make best use of these resources and his position should now be untenable as a result
  12. RANGERRAB
    By whom? UEFA?
  13. RANGERRAB
    Well they did unless I'm mistaken....
  14. RANGERRAB
    I thought they did and are appearing in court on Monday....
  15. RANGERRAB
    Is this all who will be arrested or will there be others?
  16. RANGERRAB
    And that the oldco was never insolvent. Well with HMRC's continuing failure with their EBT tax case and today's news he is certainly looking spot on with at least one of them
  17. RANGERRAB
    Welcome though today's news may be it still does not answer how Whyte managed to acquire Rangers so easily despite the warnings from the likes of AJ & PM who clearly knew all about his past and said so at the time. I've always had my doubts about SDM willingly selling to Whyte(did LBG or Muir force the sale?) and why did HMRC not prevent it given Whyte already had tax arrears with them then almost inexplicably they then proceded to allow him to run up even more arrears by withholding PAYE & NI contributions at Rangers. Not to mention the non-action by our SFA in stopping Whyte taking over Rangers at the time and subsequently they allowed Rangers to be thrown out the top division and withholding prize monies amongst other punishments after Whyte's ownership went disastrously wrong leading to administration/liquidation of oldco. Did they never consider Rangers might have been the victim rather than appearing desperate to hand out whatever punishments they could as often as they could.FWIW I believe Regan's position has been untenable at the SFA for some time now because of this It remains to be seen now if there are to be further arrests. Only time will tell

    Football Tax havens?
  19. RANGERRAB
    LOL. It's nowhere near conclusion and would even be a decade away or more. When the old Airdrie FC went out of business in 2002 it took ten years to finally wind up their oldco (Airdrie Utd emerged as a result of a few businessman buying the old Clydebank FC and renaming it as the experts will tell you on here)
  20. RANGERRAB
    you would think it could potentially open up several cans of worms............ Getting punished for being the victim ......
  21. RANGERRAB
    if indeed Whyte's takeover is proven fraudulent where does that leave the Scottish football authorities with their punishments i.e. withholding prize money, transfer embargo, demotion to thirds division etc etc ?
  22. RANGERRAB
    the two D&P administrators Whyte was so eager to get appointed
  23. RANGERRAB
    these two were fairly obvious. The other two will be more interesting....................
  24. RANGERRAB
    if it's Withey & Grier it's Whyte's surely ?
  25. RANGERRAB
    The Ticketus stuff is over. Whyte lost on appeal. He has to pay back Ticketus £18M or whatever it was he obtained thro' fraudulent misrepresentation'.
