embarrased to admit I support the same club as some of these morons :(


if ever there were walking adverts for contraception
 
I kinda understand it though foxy, there is a huge chunk of the support (as there is in every support, but more so in bigger supports obviously) that cant comprehend whats going on and are currently going through DABDA.

Denial - Its not happening, it wont happen, we are too big to die.
Anger - Boycott everything, march, do what ever we can to show how wronged we have been.
Bargaining - We will go to the third division (as if its Rangers choice where to play)
Depression - Had set it well and truly with a lot of fans.
Acceptance - not too many are at that stage

Most of these guys on the follow follow and RM forums are stuck on anger and denial.
 
Round and round we go yet never a question answered.

Impress me by suggesting 1 company or organisation who will spend 30m on Ibrox stadium. Now the hilarious "Shoprite" etc is out the way.

Anyone? 30m? :D

They don't want liquidation, they want their money. HMRC do not accept CVAs, especially where it has been found that the company used the tax man's money to run it with. If liquidation is the alternative to a CVA they view it as a warning to other companies not to do the same. Moral hazard and all that.

Where`s this money going to come from?

The Green Consortium now have first dibs as preferred creditors.

Which particular stone is this blood coming from?

Have you ever thought that the local council might take pity on Rangers and buy the ground, then lease it back to the club at a fixed percentage of the gate fees (like how city work with their stadium).

Council take out a loan to cover local creditors, say 15% of the gates for ever will cover the loan after a while and make them some money in the long run.

If I had some cash for it, id buy it and lease it back to the club (extra rules though for my own amusement though).

Ibrox is not worthless (despite what the club's tax forms say) as any clubs ground is about the most valuable asset to the company with regards to revenue streams....

That was started on pie and bovril, someone then tweeted it last week and it grew legs after leggo claimed it as an exclusive. Theres no truth in it.

Your club can only ever dream of 18,000 attendances. :D

Well, apart from when they glory hunt at Hampden :D

Why would my club dream of attendances of 18,000 when our capacity is only half that :p

My club is also solvent, extremely well run and a model for other clubs on how to run an SPL club, other clubs like Utd who has inherited the kind of mess we did will get themselves in order and restructure too, fortunately the debt at most of them (Hearts aside possibly) is now high enough to risk the actual club's future unlike Rangers.

It is a shame though, that you choose to deflect dodgy and deny whats actually happening by talking about other clubs attendances, id be far more worried about your own, the last game where fans had to pay you got less than 18,000, thats nearly 1/3 of your capacity of your fans (and you claim over 100,000) when Rangers needed the money the most, walked away, the additional money of a full house would have helped the creditors get more money but alas.

Even the march to Hampden was a bit of a disaster, only 7000 turning out, 1/7th of the capacity of Ibrox.

Wrong. If they could sell ibrox and murray park for 30m say (a reasonable estimate), then thats a better result for the taxpayer than getting 1/4 less.

Thats the bottom line, like it or not.

This is true but it'll be a firesale and it may go for 4 million. Its only worth what someone will pay for it.

I believe the CVA pot is made up of the following 8.5 million + balance of Jelavic fee from Everton circa 3.5 million + Any moneys won/recovered from Whytes Lawyers case for 25 million so a potential pot of near £37 million.
