    Craig - EBT's were a perfectly legal form of tax avoidance. Over 5000 UK companies used them. Why were Rangers singled out ? I believe we were deliberately targeted. The reason we(I mean oldco shareholders here) may not have taken the legal route is that the UTT is allegedly still to conclude following the HMRC appeal. Once that happens I'd be amazed if oldco shareholders didn't take legal action if,as expected, HMRC lose again

    Questions still needs answered i.e. was SDM forced to sell to Whyte by LBG? if so by whom at LBG & for what reasons ? Was it Fullerton & Kane? why did HMRC pursue the BTC when EBT's were a perfectly legal form of tax avoidance ? HMRC haven't won an EBT case yet as far as I know Did someone use his contacts to get HMRC to pursue the BTC in order to financially cripple Rangers ? was it Reid? Were LBG & HMRC part of a co-ordinated masterplan designed destroy Rangers? if so who masterminded it ? Reid? How did Whyte manage to get away without paying PAYE/NI for as long as he did when normal businesses would have been brought to book much sooner by HMRC? why did the SFA take no action against Whyte for not paying PAYE/NI when they were advised about this by JT long before administration? And finally did the SFA know about Whyte's background when he got Rangers ? if so why didn't they act

    Decent statement. Remains to be seen if BBC Scotland's sports presenters(if they can be called that) will continue to ignore this ruling and what action will be taken if they do. So far we've had words but no action from the BBC Scotland hierarchy

    if we offer Zaliukas a contract let's hope it's not the usual 3 year one. He's not the standard of player we'll require once we return to the top division. Never been quite impressed with him unfortunately

    Is Doncaster really that stupid? surely he must know no one will sponsor a corrupt SPFL
  6. RANGERRAB
    if they were free agents they would be able to join another club
  7. RANGERRAB
    They've all been told before about this so yes some form of disciplinary action required here

    Historically who's won more honours - US OR THEM? answer that Mr English. And where will they go if they leave Scottish football ? England ? don't make me laugh........ The English now know all about them & their vile anti-British support Run the finances expertly ? only if you call one of their three companies being loaded with debt I suppose. They need CL football to have any chance of breaking even maybe he'll use all these 'contacts and knowledge and expertise' to get his chum at the SPFL a sponsor. Or do successful businesses steer clear or sponsoring corrupt organisations run by people like Liewell ? Another ridiculous article from a third rate journalist working for a declining newspaper who won't even produce their sales figures

    my take on all of this is that by allowing Murray, Blin & McClelland into the boardroom Mather, Stockbridge & co have more or less invited the foxes into the hen house. These 2 groups have widely differing views. They cannot possIbly work together. There's no doubt in my mind there will be some sort of boardroom coup but I simply cannot fathom out what McColl's role is in this i.e. won't invest and doesn't want control

    BBC Scotland is a largely unaccountable organisation who employ individuals such as Spence, Speirs, Cosgrove etc who do pretty much as they like. The only reason they get away with it is because of its guaranteed funding via the licence fee. Until this funding gets withdrawn and they need to produce accurate & factual broadcasts so that they rely on audience figures then the likes of Spence will continue to spout this type of anti-Rangers nonsense which he knows isn't true but knows he'll away with it. There is only one solution - SCRAP THE TV LICENCE FEE. SCRAP THE TV LICENCE FEE SCRAP THE TV LICENCE FEE SCRAP THE TV LICENCE FEE

    where would Celtic go if they get out of Scotland? England certainly don't want them. The English now know all about the club, its supporters and all they stand for. Just ask the good people of Brentford. They'll tell you.
  12. RANGERRAB
    With all that's been said, how can all of them seriously work together? Unless there will be a boardroom coup once Blin & Murray get into the boardroom. We shall have to wait & see how the develops
  13. RANGERRAB
    just not convinced he's what we want/need at RB. Hopefully I'll be proved wrong though
  14. RANGERRAB
    to be fair we were without Wallace,Black, McLeod & Peralta. Three of them will be our midfield this season along with Law who played in the game. We don't have a big squad any longer & perhaps it showed today. If only 2 or 3 players drop out then we'll struggle. That said I would have thought the likes of Shiels & Templeton would have taken this opportunity today because if Ally goes 4-4-2 he may well decide to put 4 midfielders in with Daly and probably Clark up front. That would mean no starting place for Shiels & Templeton. I also think today would highlight the fact that there are still areas in the team needing strengthened. Will we ever sign a recognised RB ? I also think we lack a bit of pace up front particularly in the wide areas like Aluko gave us and I do get the impression Ally wants someone to partner Daly up front hence his pursuit of Kenny Miller. However not all doom & gloom. The team does look much improved from last season does it not?
  15. RANGERRAB
    In fact why have an interview with Scotzine in the first place ? does Irvine not know who Scotzine are ?
  16. RANGERRAB
    Liewell will do nothing for Scottish football. His first & only priority will be to look after Septic's interests. I'm astounded no one else can see this
  17. RANGERRAB
    Celtic need the CL money just to almost break even. Their operating costs are well over £54m
  18. RANGERRAB
    remember also that when the bunnet bought them back in 1994 he switched their bank to the CIS who are now a basket case needing to raise £1.5billion very soon. Giving out longterm loans like Ra poops got may well be called in if(as expected) the Bank of England take over the running of the CIS bank.
  19. RANGERRAB
    didn't Rhegan extend Levein's contract for the current WC qualifying campaign ? only to sack him after 4 games and 1 point on the board almost a year ago which cost the SFA quite a bit in compensation
  20. RANGERRAB
    give me a clue. Was it dummy Doncaster? Another worrying aspect is digging up players from the lower English leagues who are eligible thro' a distant Scottish relative. The question needs asked whether these players will be good enough to get 2nd place in a qualifying group and into playoffs(Scotland realistically won't win a group). I have my doubts I have to say.
  21. RANGERRAB
    'he was led to believe Craig Whyte was worth £80million and had no reason to doubt that' Don't suppose anyone thought to check this out ? AJ certainly didn't seem to think so. Whyte was a man who owned a load of companies none of which seemed to be trading & making any money I've always maintained SDM was forced to sell to Whyte by LBG's Scottish business division who threatened to withdraw financial support to MIH unless he did so. And who ran LBG's Scottish business division at that time? go on tell me
  22. RANGERRAB
    good poiint dB - Will Lunny cite stokes. I think we know the answer to that unfortunately
  23. RANGERRAB
    another thing I'd add is that as long as Celtic continue buying players around the £2m or £3m mark we should be able to compete with them.
  24. RANGERRAB
    And they wonder why no one will sponsor the SPFL ? Who will sponsor a one horse race where 11 of the 12 teams in the so-called showpiece premiership league have no ambition to win it? That's why SPFL clubs are giving away so many freebies and 'buy one get three free' season tickets. The SPFL premiership attendances are fictitious for many of the clubs. Scottish football began its slow, lingering death when Rangers were voted out the SPL in summer 2012. You may not agree with much of what CG said but he was bang on about trying to get Rangers out of Scottish football. It's commercial madness for Rangers to be playing against Stenhousemuir & Arbroath. England may not be an option but some newly-formed Northern European league from the benelux & scandanavian countries may be an option in the future. Celtic ? couldn't give a damn about them. We don't need them as our attendances show. As their domestic attendances decline and they cover empty seats with flags(a premiership practice it seems) they rely on CL participation but for how long will the easy passage be there for them ? why should clubs like lyon & PSV be given harder qualification ties after coming second in much stronger leagues than the SPFL? How much longer will they accept that? We shall see
  25. RANGERRAB
    He'll be judged by results starting from September next year for Euro2016. All games between now & then are relatively meaningless. Progress will be only when Scotland actually qualify for an EC or WC finals
