Mikey1874 Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 This is turning into a bear pit - all these ex-directors of Rangers turning on each other? Findlay was a director for 13 years under Murray wasn't he? Unsigned letters and contracts? I cannot believe SDM truly believed Whyte had the readies, he just needed someone, anyone to take Rangers off him...I'd be interested to hear more about the relationship between Murray and the Bank of Scotland. The bank was into Murray for about 750m at the time of the banking crisis which Murray had borrowed for bum investment property deals. Now a decent amount of money was also directed into Rangers via interco loans from Murray International. So given that Rangers was a black hole it is pretty obvious why the bank wanted SDM to divest himself of Rangers - at least the property investments had a chance of coming good again if the bank continued to support Murray International. Yeah Just thinking of all the others who could be witnesses Unless they have all agreed a line it could be messy Back Tuesday now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambo-Jimbo Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Yeah Just thinking of all the others who could be witnesses Unless they have all agreed a line it could be messy Back Tuesday now We've seen the start of it already, Findlay on Murray, King on Murray and Murray on just about everybody else, wait until they get the chance in the witness box, hopefully they'll expose SDM as the liar that he is.

Footballfirst Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Proceedings over until Tuesday. Findlay spent the day highlighting documents from the Board and other advisors that they have serious concerns about the club before the takeover, all of which Murray sought to deny or deflect as merely opinions. The stage is now set up for the subsequent witnesses to back up their assertions and show that Murray was wrong. Findlay's end game looks like it will be that the club's finances and prospects were bleak, but also that the Board was dysfunctional. Whyte was therefore the one who was duped.

DETTY29 Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 (edited) So what would happen if the sale shouldn't have technically gone ahead? absolute mind melting stuffIf still knocked out by Malmo and Maribor then fire sale of all sellable players and potential pre pack so as not to get done by BTC. Cash was already tight to even put payment of WTC in doubt. No leeway from Llyods due to state of MG, Rangers and potential BTC liability.. So cream ducked. At a guess.

Well they couldn't be, because nobody knew the extent of the potential liabilities for the Big and Small Tax Cases. Generally in business it is an risky to buy a whole company, precisely because you are buying the liabilities, including future ones, in addition to the assets.

Glamorgan Jambo Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 One thing that jumped out at me from this afternoons evidence was that someone (presumably the ex chairman Alistair Johnson) extended the notice period on the then Chief Executive (Martin Bain)'s contract out to 39 months shortly before the deal with Whyte was done. I can't wait for this guy to be cross examined on why exactly there was the need for this as up until now he's had a pretty free ride from the media etc. This is as dodgy a deal as McCoist being in line for compensation if he didn't succeed Smith. I have to say Findlay's doing his job extremely well and kudos to James Doleman for the updates on twitter... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the refusal to extend the season to allow us to honour this country by winning a uefa cup, to the desperate measures to kill the club off, relegating us to allow the taigs no competition for champions league money. Only the staunchness of our support and the passion inherited among all true rangers from the gallant pioneers onwards saw us rise back to the top. Enough is enough. We must demand a level playing field. I wish mr King would clearly state that no ranger, from Colt to the hallowed first team, will represent the sfa national teams at any level until Liewell and his ilk are removed. On Saturday we should brandish red cards every time Brown has the ball to demonstrate to the world that we know the governance of the game in this once great country favours only one club- that considers itself Irish! That said, I'm convinced that right and justice will prevail and that we will defeat Timmy.

Footballfirst Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 (edited) Just reading this. You mean this sort of statement from the auditors in Rangers 2016 accounts: EMPHASIS OF MATTER ? GOING CONCERN In forming our opinion on the financial statements, which is not modified, we have considered the adequacy of the disclosures in note 1 to the financial statements concerning the Group?s ability to continue as a going concern. In order to continue operations for the next 12 months the Group is dependent upon raising additional finance. Failure to secure additional funding would result in the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt as to the Group?s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include the adjustments that would result if the Group was unable to continue as a going concern.

No reflection on the fact they could have hit the restart button and came up after 4 years in great knick. Absolute shambles, makes? me put our shit into perspective. Debt, no valuable players, demanding fans, no clue, shite infrastructure and a crook in charge. New coach and/or some players we'll be fine, more than fine imo.

Mikey1874 Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 I know it's a side issue though perhaps still important. Whyte's defence lawyer Donald Findlay was previously Rangers director. He stood down after a video of him singing the 'party songs'. I always felt it was harsh. And just listening to Steven Pressley saying as a teenager at Ibrox he was expected to go to supporters events and you were expected to sing all the songs. Anyway back on tomorrow.
