Sale of Rangers FC 'will go ahead by mid-January'

 

Published Date: 05 December 2010

By Tom English

 

A DEAL to sell Rangers Football Club to Scots venture capitalist Craig Whyte will go though by the middle of January, according to senior sources at the club.

Whyte, 39, met with Ibrox chairman Alastair Johnston in Glasgow to discuss the purchase of Sir David Murray's shareholding in the club.

 

The proposed £33 million deal will wipe out the existing debt that has stymied Rangers in the transfer market for two years.

 

Yesterday, sources at Rangers said the deal, barring any late hitches, could be completed before Christmas but it is more likely that it will be done by the middle of January. "We can't say with 100 per cent certainty, but Whyte has the money and is very convincing. We think the deal will happen," said the source.

 

Murray has presided over Rangers for 22 years but has been keen to sell his stake for some time.

 

Hopefully the debt thing is not true as that is what is holding them back at the moment.

Fantastic post, didn't go beyond the page that was one, but did the Hun that was directed at actually attempt to reply ?

Aye right, not going to happen

TBH be honest, Al, I also didn't venture further into the thread so I can't answer that. It felt wrong being on that forum at all.

Fair point

Rangers manager Ally McCoist feels his club should be fast-tracked into the second tier of Scotland's proposed new 12-12-18 league set-up if they win the Third Division this season, citing the example of Stranraer making it into the First Division in a previous reconstruction.

I'm sure he does.

 

I feel they should be fast-tracked to fuck.

Shit result, but when the story begins with "Fran Sandaza has finally ended his 5 month goal drought in the Third Division." it's still worthy of a

Aye right... 

 

 

 

 

Based on that then we can expect call ups for players from Peterhead, Elgin, Queens Park & Stirling - what a muppet!

Doesnt Rory Mccallister has a better goals record than Kenny Miller?

Peterhead have apologised to Rangers after player Steven Noble tweeted “it was the only part of the game I watched back” in reference to his challenge with Fransisco Sandaza that saw the Ibrox forward kicked in the face.

 

How do they know that was what he was referring to?

Rangers could be set to demand a ban on all goal celebrations, tangerine and the BBC's Jim Spence at the powder keg Scottish Cup clash with Dundee United.

 

Despite Charles Green's plea to stay away, 200 away fans have snapped up tickets, leading to the Ibrox club making a list of demands to avoid trouble.

 

Ahead of the explosive fixture, Rangers have already slammed the "provocative" wearing of Craig Whyte masks by home fans, fearing it will spark war.

 

The Away End understands the club are set to go further than that, with a list of diva like demands which will ban goal celebrations and the wearing of Dundee United's traditional home shirt.

 

Earlier this week John McMillian of the Rangers Supporters Assembly reacted furiously to news that United fans were planning to don Craig Whyte masks to taunt their rivals with.

 

He said: "I was anticipating the United supporters doing something but I didn’t think they would stoop to this.

 

“It’s out of order and Dundee United as a club should do all they can to prevent their fans from carrying this threat through.

 

“The majority of Rangers fans will not be at the game and observe the boycott but unfortunately I’m certain some of them will go to Tannadice so this is a recipe for trouble.

 

“It’s inflammatory to wear these masks and it’s disgraceful to even be thinking about it.

 

“This game is already raised tensions and I fear any move to mock our support could have serious consequences.”

 

On the back of United's threat to don the scary masks, Rangers will hand their counterparts a list of new rules for the cup tie.

 

A source said: "We feel with tensions already heightened for this fixture, that it would be inflammatory to our support for United to wear Tangerine. We will therefore provide strips for them to wear on the day."

 

"We also feel with tensions already heightened for this fixture, it would be dangerous for the home fans to taunt our supporters by celebrating any goals.

 

"We call on Dundee United as a club to ensure this does not happen in the interests of safety and sporting integrity.

 

"Further to this, in order to avoid confrontation between fans, we will also discuss with the police the possibility of the home support being seated in a boy-girl-boy-girl arrangement to ensure a calming atmosphere.

 

"We have also written to the club and demanded that the BBC's Jim Spence be kept away from the game. We feel with tensions already heightened for this fixture that his dangerous and provocative Dundonian ways will only unsettle the away fans who have chosen to travel."

Fuck you and your tawdry fucking club.

 

Ashamed of fuck all the cunt but handy wi their own index finger.

 

The cunts.

Can they actually enforce these bully-boy-wanker demands?

Thought not!

It's quite obviously a joke article...

Definitely a joke article.

Trying to be the daily mash but failing miserably

They have, however, complained about the Arabs idea of Craig Whyte masks and the subsequent threat of disorder.

Not even close to the level of offence they have caused the lenght and breadth of Scotland for near a hundred and forty years pre their demise.

 

24 carat gold cunts the lot of them
