If HMRC write their debt off then you will see more clubs not paying them, they will stand firm and they do not ever agree (generally) with CVA's
Craig Whyte has a big fight ahead but like I said earlier he's not daft
Rangers to enter administration

I had the very same thought Valentino.
Both having been looking for an opportunity for years to get into the EPL, Celtic may see this as a good opportunity........
Aberdeen would still win hee haw though!!
The EPL neither needs, nor wants, anything to do with an old firm team.
It just won't happen. Perhaps Celtic could move to the league of the country that their support waves the flag of and sings the 'folk' songs of. :ears:

Seriously thogh my mates Dad is a copper and he says there is no way either of the Old Firm will ever move into the EPL or any of the english leagues as the rozzers would refuse to police the matches as it would be England v Scotland every week. Never gonna happen. The Police have a lot more say than you think.

Good to see it hasn't stopped Rangers signing a new player today, Daniel Cousin, to add to the wage bill.

From the way this came across on the news this is a planned move to pre-empt the decision on the tax case and avoid the Revenoo putting them into administration, which would give the taxman first pickings. It was also said that it hasn't happened yet and the taxman could still get in first.
on a more general note - I pay my taxes - they should pay theirs

Yes there is definitely more to this than meets the eye.
Totally agree!! And for that reason I hope they go under. Its the man in the street that stumps up whilst big business shirks its responsibilities.

Rangers are going nowhere, deals will be struck a 10 point deduction and not being allowed to play in next years European comps will be the sum total of the penalty paid...look at Motherwell as an example in Scotland.
It's a travesty that they have effectively cheated their way to cups and leagues over the past decade, but the nature of Scottish football will not allow their demise, and behind closed doors their greatest ally will be Celtic.
In an ideal world, they would be liquidated and Celtic be allowed to join the English set-up ( no matter what anyone says, they are a marginally more palatable club than Rangers)This would leave Scottish football on a more level playing field, maybe not with TV money that the old firm can bring in, but with each club the potential of being league champs.Attendances might drop a wee bit, and cloth cutting exercises might have to be done a wee bit too, but the league would be competitive,religious intolerance free and maybe a wee bit more enjoyable.

Winning nine in a row using funds that should have eased the plight of the old, infirm and hospitalised and showing no remorse!!
Waging war on referees so that, as happened on Saturday, any penalty imposed on their team MUST be imposed on the other team or they will throw the toys out of the pram again.
Both Celtic and Rangers are as bad as each other and the sooner this country sees the back of them the better. What about the loss of income BUT what about the loss of bad behaviour, bigotory, stabbings (at Inverness in last Saturday's cup game), police intimidation - (all old firm supporters stand because the police are AFRAID of tackling this problem) -that would result from their demise? It would be magic and cannot be measured in cash!
GOOD RIDDANCE TO THE BOTH OF THEM, I SAY - they are a cancer on the decent values of all Scots!!

My man in the know was correct...tip of the iceberg indeed.
If you are a Hun brace yourself for more revelations over the coming few days.
Chick Young holds door open for Whyte as he leaves Ibrox earlier today and by the way Whyte's glaring,he looks like he's just spotted a pound coin on the floor.

£9 million in unpaid PAYE and VAT in the past 10 months is quite frankly incredible, and if its not considered criminal then I don't know why.
Rangers FC has been robbing every man, woman and child in this country for years.
I tend to agree with a previous poster that Scottish football might not actually be too badly off if it loses one (or indeed both) of the Old Firm.
It would certainly be more honest.

It will be interesting if they do not get Saturdays game played if the league deduct a further 15 points as they did to Accies..........I would doubt it but a precedent has been set.
