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.

Contrast the reaction of the Kamara incident to the Logan one.

The Scottish media don't care about racism. 

They are just horrible hun bastards who can't take a defeat. 

I'm against racism but it's a skewed world indeed when one word at the end excuses 90 minutes of all out violence, which is not being mentioned at all.

This is similar to when Naismith broke Milsom's leg and came out with sympathy. Scottish football is a disgusting, hun ridden cesspit.

Huns being Huns in centre of Glasgow last night. No other set of fans would get away with what these self entitled pricks do.

This lad shows correct way to deal with them.

 

I would open fire on them if I were the government.

They'd soon disperse then.

Precedent has been set now. 
Underfunded police scotland have failed to stop it twice so I wouldnt be surprised if this sort of thing becomes an annual occurance from both sides of the OF.

The 'these aren't true SEVCO fans' bullshit defence is a tad weak when 3000+ show up.
 

SEVCO can claim all their like they 'did their best' to stop it, but if that was the case they could have
A) Installed gates to side streets around Ibrox on Friday
B) Paid for a Security fences to be installed on the street outside the Main stand. The street is already closed for maintenance so this could have been constructed fairly quick.
C) Paid a large sum to Police scotland to close surrounding streets to non essential traffic
D) stopped their players running to the corner gates to wave to the fans outside after they won the title in March.

Perhaps this is the point where the football clubs do become legally responsible for the actions of their supporters. 
Your fans smash up a town centre, or another clubs stadium- Bill is sent to the club with 'price doubles if not paid within 14days - extra money goes to grass roots sports, and 3 points automatically deducted, and/or a cup-tie forfeited.

Strict liability doesn't exist in Scottish fitba. It's what the clubs, including AFC, want. Let's not pretend that a similar percentage of dons fans wouldn't have been doing similar though. I'm pretty certain there'll be a party or two in the streets of St Johnstone when they win the cup next week.

I am sure there will but they won’t be marching through the town attacking folk, smashing the place up and attacking the police.

Delighted to see them getting their just desserts.

Patently bit off more than they could chew with him.

Loved the way he walks away brushing down his jacket whilst one of the Huns pretends he is getting held back from going after him again.

Totally agree with this Tom.

Fucking disgraceful scenes, but then again pretty much what every one of us would have forecast

Classic "whataboutery" from Huns trying to defend it all by comparing it to the "Immigration Protest" in Glasgow last week. 

A small minority again. Same as the small minority who trashed a whole city centre in Manchester.

Their whole support, barring nobody, is utter vermin. This minority pish is just blatant lies.

Scotland doesn’t want to deal with them. Pass the broom eh ? 

Their players and staff recorded using sectarian language in their title celebrations.

This is no surprise. Mark Walters, who himself suffered racial abuse in Scotland, was equally unequivocal in his condemnation of Catholics when the old huns won the league.

The whole club is rancidly racist and sectarian. I'm glad to see them getting tackled for it at last.

Really? What did they say? Doesn't surprise me mind.

Haven’t seen the video but from what I could work out from Twitter, changing the “do, do, do” in Sweet Caroline to “fuck the pope” 

Deflection mode engaged.

'Well we wanted to have 4 parties inside ibrox each with 10000 fans but you said no and look what happened.......so its your fault a '"small minority" of 15000 caused chaos in the city centre for the second time in 2months.'

The huns are doing a £6.75m share issue. 

Between these, and not even coming close to adhering to FFP, this is how they carve up Scottish football for themselves.

i.e. it's a straight flat out repeat of the cheating done in the EBT years. They are cheating right now.

If Scottish football is to have any future at all, then FFP and strict liability should be introduced tomorrow.

Otherwise just hand the next 10 titles to the huns right now and save us all the hassle of paying to watch a blatant fix.

Seen an advert on Instagram (sports direct funnily enough) for their new home kit.
Orange coloured sponsor, badge and manufacturer logo. 

Any truth in the story doing the rounds that Uefa have cancelled this season's Champions League competition and just awarded the trophy to The Huns following their victory yesterday ?

BBC reckons we should all just give up and go home, save everyone the hassle of dragging these competitions on any further

Can you imagine the squirming in the weegie press corp when Jon Dahl Tomasson brought up Tribute Act finances. 

Glorious

Sad that we always rely on foreigners to tell us the truth about the cunts.

Currently down 2-1 on the night and 4-2 on agg to 10 man Malmö.

Fucking glorious
