Rangers in Trouble Again

Was it not also David Murray that called in the last debt at Airdire causing them to die.

Happy to see Rangers totally die, equally happy to see Celtic go the same way.
Any other club in Scotland? Nope, just those 2.

But they didn't cheat did they; it's been proved in court; both in terms of financial cheating and sporting advantage

They used all methods at their disposal at that time to fund their team in those days. If HMRC are unsuccessful in their appeal, then yes, effectively it will have been proved they didn't cheat financially.

As to sporting advantage...... this is where integrity and morals come into play IMO
 
I think Celtic now have a much better chance of joining the English leagues....best option for Scotland and England all round.
Replace Blackpool when the go bust perhaps [sorry Louise]
 
But they didn't gain any sporting advantage- this was legally proved to be the case of a Supreme Courts of Scotland Judge but carry on if it makes ye happy cuz I know this will not make a blind bit of difference to you
 
Haha tbf I think that's BS, we have a big group of mates both sides, not one Celtic fan is a No voter, half Rangers fans are yes and half are no... small sample size right enough!

One wonders how many times Rangers will have to win this particular argument in court. Maybe it'll be third time lucky for HMRC....

Liverpoolphil,

Back in 1994 the boot was on the other foot. Rangers were flying high with many internationalists on their books, they seemed to be able to to pick and choose who they bought and played at virtually any position on the park. Season ticket sales were massive as you would expect from a winning team. Celtic were struggling both on and off the park. Unable to compete with the big money offered by Rangers Celtic started a spiral that nearly caused their demise. Celtic were slipping towards bankruptcy much to the joy of their city rivals. In stepped wee Fergus McCann who bought a controlling interest in Celtic and set them up on a firm business footing. He helped them create one of the best grounds in Scotland and managed to put a team on the park that stopped Rangers breaking their run of Championship wins.

We now know why Rangers were able to fund such extravagant signings, unfortunately several other clubs in Scotland tried to compete and hit the banckruptcy proceedings sooner or later (My own club being one of them, but that's a slightly different story)

There are a lot of issues that need to be reviewed, on both sides, unfortunately these issues run deep and will probably always be there.

Oh I fully understand that and know that and can see why people would not wish Rangers to do well but to actually want the club to disappear of the face of the world because they bought players ? That's a little bit more

Every now and then you post some right crackers that go beyond the line - that's another :rofl:
 
LPP, Come up some time and go to an old firm game, make your own mind up when you experience the atmosphere at the match ;)

It goes a lot deeper than anything done in the last 25 years.

Ahmed back in to freeze the £650000.

Previously it's been kicked out twice as the judge said that there was no credible threat that The Rangers would be unable to pay the £650000 if Ahmed won. By The Rangers own words they are bust if the share issue fails so I can't see how a judge could possibly argue against Ahmed this time.

And I am aware the rights were sold 2 years ago but this is now yet another revenue stream that is closed. The SRU sold the naming rights to Murrayfield for £20 million...The Rangers sold theirs for 100 pennies.

Time for a spot of karaoke.

And now, the end is near............:whoo:

Court has frozen £620k worth of Rangers club assets as per Ahmed's request.
