    Whyte is in Monaco, guess that's the last we see of him (Unless some Bears kidnap him and bring him back ;) )

    Well his decision to not pay his taxes etc has more or less just handed Celtic the title, I'm sure he still has his supporters among the Rangers fans though, the man is made of teflon it seems.

    David Murray ended up owing about £25-30 million in unpaid taxes (not including fines) over the course of 20 years as chairman, Whyte owes £9 million in a space of 9 months and has cost the team 10 points and administration yet he is still seen as the saviour.

    The tide is turning on that front amongst many Rangers fans.

    Not to the IRA charity though.

    The National Graves Association is not an "IRA charity"... and even if it was or if I pick an "IRA charity" you must honour the bet and pay it.

    Can I remind you of the terms of the bet -
    Charity to be chosen by the winner of the bet.

    You win you nominate a charity for me to pay, I win I nominate a charity for you to pay.


    And here's a post I made when you guys were still 4 points ahead of us in the league and about to play us at home.

    I did say at the time of the bet .."Oh Dear.." and to be fair keith, you did make the bet.

    That said - I wouldnt be paying a penny of the bet until the league is officially over and also, even from a republican point of view, there must be more deserving charities tbh.

    Don't worry EB, I won't be looking to collect until the league is officially over... and I'm sure I can come up with an even better charity!!! :D

    I doubt it, many (including me) are now starting to see what his plan really was.

    I agree. I would give to any charity like cancer research etc.

    Well then you should have won the bet so you could have chosen the charity... and there's nothing stopping you donating to said cancer research charity as well anyway!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 6,798 ✭✭✭karma_


    I'd nominate Macmillan for the donation tbh, looking after graves is one thing, but the living is another and in fairness the dead neither need or care any more.

    I would second that, just my 2 cents but would it not be better to go to one that could have some positive cross community benefits, something like http://www.childni.org.uk (which I know nothing about except through a quick google but looks like a good idea)?

    A specifically Republican or Loyalist charity was going to be a bit predictable, and while no doubt it would be funny to see Keith have to do it I do think it could go to a better cause.

    Still, Bobby won the bet so Keith should just go with whatever he says, it was an obvious outcome to the bet and he should have known that.

    winning a bet is one thing.

    completely humiliating another human being is absolutely another.

    Just a little bit of an exaggeration there? I'm a Republican but if I had to pay money to clean up the grave of James Craig, Edward Carson or even King Billy himself I would find it at most only mildly irritating.

    Some Celtic fans get hammered for apparently not showing proper respect for the British war dead (which includes troops who served in Ireland) so can I ask why you regard the maintenance of Irish war graves a "complete humiliation"?

    I still think the bet could be more productive but that is just a stupid comment.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,014 ✭✭✭Eirebear


    To be fair to Bobby here, he never actually suggested the War graves Charity, in fact it was'nt even a regular poster who did so.

    I think he has been doing that by himself by ignoring numorous posts about paying up on the charity bet. Only started answering posts last night, and now he wants to have an input too where the money should go.. Humiliation

    Anyone listen the the press conference with the administrators.

    The first thing they said about the situation was to blab on about their statutory duty to the creditors (i.e. Whyte & HMRC)

    Surely when a club gets to appoint their own administrators, their first act in PR spin would be to reassure the fans that the club will be saved?

    Whoever appointed the administrators would say the same thing. The administrators are not there to save the club. They're there to protect the interests of the creditors.

    I posted yesterday that if I was a Rangers fan I would want HMRC to appoint the administrator, at least then you know things will be done fairly and by the book.

    Just read on a Celtic forum(not sure how true it is) that Rangers exit to Dundee Utd in the Scottish cup was the tipping point, it meant that Rangers had no significant income due before the end of the season, most people going to Rangers games go on season tickets so matchday revenue for league games isn't too high, away supporters apart from Celtic don't go in huge numbers either.

    Anyway my question is what kind of incomes would a team have coming in between now and the end of the season that will cover wages, policing etc required to keep the club open?

    EDIT - Just saw your post Bobby and that was the opinion in the article I read as to the only way Rangers could generate income, I can't see too many Rangers fans wanting to pay twice to see a team decimated due to the incompetent running of the club!

    No, regardless of what their actual legal obligations you'd instruct your administrators to pacify the fans. Thats what administrators at every other club in Britain have done. Most administrators declare their intentions to save the club first and foremost because that what they trying to do.

    Duff and Phelps were involved in Whyte's takeover of the club last year, their motives are distinctly different to any other insolvency event in football that I've read about.

    Given that the headline is misleading as Rangers haven't gone bust (yet) then maybe it's best to take with a mountain of salt.

    I'm answering this but I don't want the Rangers fans here to view it as me intentionally winding them up. I'm trying to be respectful to them on this thread and the Rangers thread as I'd like that reciprocated if things were the other way round (however I do reserve the right to post freely on the Celtic thread should I feel like it!).

    I'm more than happy at their misfortune. If found guilty in the Big Tax Case (which I'm certain they will be) I would like to see them punished accordingly and in line with the crime they committed - they won championships based on their financial doping, the punishment really needs to fit the crime. They have been intentionally not paying taxes due and this has given them a massive advantage over their rivals.

    However, and I might be in a minority here, if Celtic stay in Scotland then I am of the opinion that Rangers existence (in whatever form it may be) is beneficial to us. Preferably I would like to see them weakened to an extent in the short/medium term but if we are to stay in Scotland then I believe it's within our long term interest that there is some form of Rangers FC.

    Interesting bit about redundencies:

    The administrator has the power to terminate contracts of employment. When Bryan Jackson was appointed administrator of Motherwell in 2002, he made 19 players redundant immediately.
    The salaries paid by Rangers to its players will be high, yet, as often happens in these cases, there are many of the “lesser” employees made redundant from ticket office, admin etc, whose wages would be covered by one or two players.
    It is likely, on imagines, that the administrator will make redundant a number of players at Ibrox, together with members of the backroom staff and other employees.
    Players who are injured, for example, or whose contracts are expiring in the summer, or who are not worth their place in the squad will be first to go.
    The administrators may, subject to the amount of money they have available to them, keep a couple of the high earners, in the hope of selling them. However money will be very tight, and there will not be cup-ties to fill the coffers.


    I heard that the revenue court case is a test case and that many English clubs could follow suit. Sad and all as it for Rangers (and tbh I'm not that sad about it), this might be a wake up call for many other teams that are spending nearly all of their income on player wages. As probably pointed out before it is inconcievable how a club that gets 44000 every home game and has such a wide ranging fan base can be in so much trouble, it is hard to feel sympathy here.
    Good for the peace process though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,380 ✭✭✭geeky


    There's some misunderstanding on here and elsewhere about the role of administrators.

    Administrators are appointed when a potentially viable business is in financial difficulty and needs restructuring. They go in, negotiate with creditors, and try to save the business - typically, the controllers of the business will be the ones pushing for an administrator.

    Receivers are solely interested in getting whatever they can for the creditors who appoint them. They'll strip away any assets and parcel them out accordingly. Usually, they're appointed when there's no real prospect of recovery.

    Agreed Bobby, the way the club has been run is nothing short of a disgrace, signing players as they go into administration, signing Celik with no intention of paying for him, not paying tax since the takeover etc

    There needs to be accountability for the actions of the past and present owners but I've no wish to see Rangers disappear nor do I think it will happen.

    Rangers need to be punished to the full extent of the rules, it should be made very clear to everyone what happens to cheaters. If its proven that they have outstanding tax liabilities (which means you shouldnt be granted a european licence) going back to 2001 then I believe that Rangers should be stripped of all titles they won to show clubs that this sort of carry on has no place in Scottish Football. Scottish Football has enough problems without financial doping.

    I would be pissed off if Rangers survived because the SFA/SPL didnt punish them to the full extent of the rules. The rules have to apply to everyone, equally.

    The SFA/SPL will do what is in the best interests of the Scottish game. One of them already came out and said fans should donate money to Rangers. So you can see what angle they have taken already.

    Its the lazy option, relying on the old firm is probably the most short sighted view to a viable SPL.

    Of course the SFA will act in Rangers interests, its what they do.

    Hopefully Uefa will nail them if they dont force appropriate sanctions, would be nice to get two corrupt birds with the one stone.

    Obviously other punishments can only be done when the case is over, but the 10 point penalty and potential of no European football is what is supposed to happen anyway, I don't know what more they can/will do ?

    Agreed but... they as the case is still ongoing the SFA/SPL cannot punish them in any way. What actions they take against Rangers when the result of the tax case comes through remains to be seen.

    Unless a buyer comes in I cannot see how Rangers won't go into liquidation.

    correct, wait till we see their treatment of Rangers compared to say Dundee for example.

    You ever find that IRA chanting you heard at the Hearts game?

    I'm not suggesting that they be punished in advance.

    Rangers have admitted that they have a tax liability but dispute the amount. I'd like all the details to come out in court so the SFA/SPL can implement retrospective punishments.
