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

 

Published Date: 05 December 2010

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.

I am enjoying the fact the boy was one of Green's cronies and was allowed to buy the shares at 1p each when the official launch price was 70p.

 

He spent £22k and walked away with more than £500k,

 

Wonder how many other '1p a share' people will be selling up over the next couple of weeks?

 

This is hilarious, they start hate filled campaigns against folk telling it pretty much as it is, but folk blatantly profiteering from the freshly dying carcass of their club? Not a fucking dickie burd.

The share price for them has crept up after the 2.5million shares were dumped the other day - lots of wee buys going on including the last of the big spenders who bought 10 shares for £2.79

Tick tock.

 

 

Brilliant news

McCoist apparently invited the players to a meeting then fucked off and got 'Big Lee' to break the news. 

By that story appearing, it looks like the club are going to blame the players for not taking the pay cut when administration happens.

 

Time to get the deck chairs and popcorn back out! 

They don't do docking their pay.

I don't blame McCoist for dropping Big Lee in it like that. Is he still playing for free or was that an empty promise he made to get ra bears on his side? Either way he's proved himself to be a complete mug.

 

I have zero sympathy for any of the players currently employed by The Rangers. Especially ones who left bigger, richers clubs like Kilmarnock to join them in the lower ranks helping them vastly outlive their means. I wonder if the The Rangers fans will finally blame the people running their club or if they will still hock venom and bile at anyone that dare comment or report on their hilarious predicament.

 

Good old Sevco..... still spunking money like there is no tomorrow

 

The expense of lunch at Carnoustie Hotel, and then rooms for an afternoon snooze, ahead of the treacherous trip to play Forfar........

Not sure why anyone is surprised at this I remember hearing about the old club staying overnight at a hotel in Edinburgh, for a Hearts game, while they were in administration.

looks like 1/2 a million sevco shares just dumped onto the market

 

Looks like the 1/2 million shares were traded but not sold - not sure fit that means, fars LondonScottish when you need him!

That they got swapped for Craig Whyte's Panini album?

Carnoustie Hotel now a shareholder perhaps?

That's a lot of untraded ginger boatils. And where's LS when you need him? Buying unsafe electrical items?

Tom English has left his job and looks like he has replaced Jim Traynor. Well done on the money saving Sevco!
