An unlisted dodgy football club with no real proper auditing is surely the perfect vehicle for laundering dirty cash into. King is a convicted criminal as we know.

Lovecraft Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Their wage to turnover figures must be frightening. Last season they spent around £25 Million on wages. I'd expect that will nearly be double this season. And that was while they made a £15 Million loss. Not sure how much they will have made from the Europa league last year, but it won't be £15 Million. The eggs are all in the Europa league basket again this season.

It was the old holding company that was liquidated and a new holding company was set up. Same thing happened with Leeds. Old holding company went bust only to be replaced by a new holding company. But Leeds are still recognised as the same club and retain their history by the authorities that matter (fifa, UEFA, FA etc, just like rangers) The vermin too have just been transferred to a new company. Same club though. Can someone honestly clarify why they are a new club but Leeds and vermin ain't? Or is it really just to wind them up and point scoring? Cheers. It's just to wind them up and points score. And I say that while not caring one bit if you're a Rangers fan or Hearts fan. Leeds were allowed to stay in the same division despite the holding company going bust. Nobody thinks of them of a new club; they're still Dirty Leeds. Middlesbrough were allowed to stay in the same division in 1986 despite the gates to Ayresome Park being locked and their club being liquidated. Nobody thinks of them as a new club either. Same, in Italy, with Fiorentina, Napoli and Parma. And anyone who insists that Rangers 'died' are automatically acknowledging that Hearts died in 1876, and again in 1905. Yet our badge dates back to 1874. Funny, that. Rangers were liquidated because HMRC were their largest creditor. Hearts were not liquidated because HMRC were not our largest creditor. That's it. That's all there is to it. Our fans saved the club because there was the chance to do so; their fans couldn't stop Rangers being liquidated because there was no chance to do so. Yet they still play in blue and white, they still play at Ibrox in front of about 45000 drunk, overweight Glaswegians; their fans still chant sectarian filth; and they still think they're the Queens XI. If it looks like a turkey and waddles like a turkey, it's a turkey. However, having said all that... the winding-up and points scoring works like a dream. Resulting in paroxysms of rage from the great unwashed. It's only because of Rangers fans' hilarious reactions that it carries on even now, over 7 years on.

JackLadd Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Rangers FC went bust and died. What is trading out of Ibrox now is Sevco Scotland limited 2012 trading as The Rangers with league membership of the dead club transferred along with 54 titles by Doncaster including 7 won by defrauding social taxes. Even Green admitted in court he did not buy the club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, but most of that is simply factually incorrect. Leeds United were saved in the nick of time by being bought out of administration at the eleventh hour, thus avoiding liquidation. Middlesborough were the last club to become insolvent before the introduction of the Insolvency Act 1986. The process they went through was the equivalent of going into administration, just like we did. Neither of those two clubs' insolvencies were remotely similar to Rangers liquidation (nor any other club they claim to be comparable with), quite aside from the matters of Scots Law and the SFA/SPL/SFL. Italy has openly operated a franchise system for its clubs for many years. It did not wait for the death of a club before backdating the introduction of that franchise system. Rangers did not have a holding company. The football club became a company through incorporation in 1899, creating one legal entity. That entity is currently going through the liquidation process. Gretna 2008 play their home matches at Raydale Park in the same colours and in front of the same supporters as their defunct predecessors, Gretna FC. Despite those similarities, they are not treated as being the same club as the one that died, nor should they. The club currently playing out of Ibrox is not legally the same club as the one which was founded in 1872 and died in 2012. Our football authorities, as per the terms of the five-way agreement, have treated the new club as if it was the old one for fear of losing TV and other contracts. There is a world of difference between actually still being a club that died and merely being treated as if it was that club for the sake of financial expediency. Hearts avoided the death of liquidation by the skin of our teeth. Do you seriously think the powers that be would have concocted the survival myth for us? You only have to read about the plight of Bury and Bolton fighting for their very existence to realise that the immortal metaphysical club construct invented for Rangers is unique to Rangers, even although the immortal metaphysical club concept has been laughed out of court by several judges.

Rangers weren't set up by the Orange Lodge or by Dutch men. Correct, Rangers association with protestantism only started in the 1910's, more in reflection that they weren't catholics rather than a direct celebration of protestant roots. The trigger probably lay in the recruitment to the Govan shipyards, with a notable "Catholics need not apply" policy of some shipyard owners that appealed to a proportion of the local populace and spread to the football club. That period coincided with Bill Struth joining Rangers, initially as an assistant manager in 1914, then as manager in 1920. It was Struth more than anyone else who was responsible for the subsequent ingrained anti catholic and pro unionist protestantism sentiments that continues to this day.

I'm all for winding up the huns but let's not delude ourselves. They weren't the first club to pull off the newco debt dumping trick, and they won't be the last. See Bolton Wanderers "escape from liquidation" for the latest example. If you think that's a rescue of the debt-laden corporate entity you're deluding yourself. It'll be dropped like a stone for the fresh, debt-free Newco. You simply have no understanding of the legal position here. I assume you support Sevco and used to support a defunct team called Rangers. The only thing about those 2 institutions that are the same is that I despise them both and always will.

Otherwise should we get to the champions league we will pay you half then and £50 a month after that out of kents wages. Well when i say out of kents wages I mean out of what we are supposed to pay the tax man 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
