Re:

All very interesting but the biggest intrigue for me is ... what's your issue with Mick Brown? Which one? The crap manager or the founder of the London Road Travel Club with his silly moustache? How are we supposed to know? You're the one saying 'Mick Brown Out' several times a day. This Rangers ta...

My understanding is that HMRC has been instrumental in pushing through new legislation dealing with &quotphoenix&quot companies of this sort and that this legislation becomes law in early April. Unfortunately, I don't know the details. Another point, though, is that at this moment in time, t...

Re:

Rangers ARE going bust. Scottish football WILL continue in their absence, for better or worse. I look forward to it. I doubt very much if Scottish football will continue in tbheir absence. But it will - what's the alternative? Everybody stops playing football or going to games just because the migh...

How can anybody not &quotallow&quot Rangers to go bust? They ARE bust - the only way out of administration for them is for somebody to offer a serious cash injection and Murray had them up for sale for the best part of four years with no takers until Whyte/White stepped up with his pound coi...

The argument that clubs rely heavily on (at the most) four (less if they don't make the split) visits from the two big Glasgow clubs is greatly overstated, in my opinion. Although bigger, the attendances for these games are not so massive as to make a major difference to the clubs' overall financial...

Why would anyone want to &quotbail them out&quot when the outcome of the Tax Tribunal is unknown? If Rangers lose this then they will be liable to HMRC for anything between £40m and £75m. With this unknown, nobody in their right mind is going to want to get involved. With regards Scottish fo...

The huns are a complete mess. Craig Whyte/White (he's used both spellings as well as different birth dates on various official documents during his murky past) knew full well the extent of the club's problems when he bought them for a pound but wasn't bothered because his business is and always has ...
