Correct, but their chairman (Jon Pritchett) yesterday replied to a mail from the RST:

Quote:
Thank you for your e-mail and introduction. We have purposely avoided any public comments until today because we didn't see the benefit in talking until we knew more about where we were internally. At an early stage, there really is not much value in public statements.

Unfortunately, that did not keep people from talking about us. We read with some humor many of the stories, opinions and rumors about Club 9 Sports. Some of it was accurate; much of it was fictional or factually incorrect. Regardless, as you may have seen, we were never going to bid on the club ourselves. We were working with a group of people in the US and UK for a few weeks to take a hard look at the deal but that group decided not to move forward.

I just wanted to thank you for reaching out and to say that any smart owner (no matter which side of the pond) will most certainly want work with your group and others to ensure the fans, supporters and followers are an integral part of the plans for Rangers. After all, they are the most important asset of the club.

Warm regards,

Jon

Bears, if the club is liquidated, will you be fully behind a 'newco'?

I've no doubt they will, might take a bit of time to get used to the new crest

I can't speak for anyone else but yes for me.
Though I don't think that's going to happen

How do you think it'll play out BBE?

Any ideas on who you think will be the new owners?

Can't find tickets for sale anywhere on the site? Anyone think it will sell out? If not I'll buy a ticket but probably wont get over to Scotland on a weekday.

Not available yet, since the game will be in the summer I think (Me thinks HSV have other things on their mind as well).

To be fair I have no idea who the new owners will be but its reckoned HMRC have agreed in principal a settlement if they have it will help stave off liquidation big time the next couple of weeks should tell the story though

Yeah it will all come to a head in the next few weeks.

The administrators report released today detailing the creditors makes interesting reading to say the least

I didnt see the game today, but a good result it seems - even with all the penalty madness.

It would have been easy for the heads to go down today again after the Celtic result, but it's nice to see that Ally has the team playing well again and hopefully we can end the season without too big a hit to players confidence.
A clean record, including a win at Parkhead would be nice from here on in.

I saw the game and it was definitely a good performance by the team.

On another note: There was an action where fans held up red cards to say No to any party interested in buying Rangers and going for the liquidation process.

Even people in the Director's Box did it:
