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.

Never actually realised how good a playing career Van Bronkhorst had.  Always seemed a competent enough player without looking brilliant and obviously you don't play for Arsenal and Barcelona if you are not decent. He won 106 caps for Holland, league and FA cup with Arsenal, two leagues, two cups and champions league with Barca plus captained Holland in the world cup final.  Not a bad playing career for someone I have never heard anyone talk about in the sense of being a "great" player.  Wonder if there is still that thread somewhere about the luckiest players? 🤔

He was a fantastic player for the Huns. Easily in the top ten players to have played in Scotland in the sky TV/champions league era. I'd have him above van dyke, and definitely in his time in Scotland. Can't think of many better beyond the obvious Larsson and Jess.

Aye he was a genuinely world class player.  

Brian Laudrop was incredible for the Huns too.(even though Gascoine got most of the credit)

Imo Larsson and Laudrop were by far the greatest players to ever grace the Scottish game.

Miller and Mcleish too😀.

 

Just saying.

I am a bit surprised at Gerrard going to Villa. Smacks of jumping at the first opportunity rather than waiting for the right one. Villa are not going to be challenging at top end of table anytime soon and as we have seen Gerrard does not take defeats well and this will definitely be different to being Tribute Act manager with all the advantages they enjoyed.  

WINTER Raid to leave bears feeling blue as former boss swoops in for Ibrox idols. The January window could see a flock of departures, with John Beaton expected to be top of Gerrard's Christmas list.

hun tears have been great. I want much more of this please

Ruled himself out. Huns too slow to act.

Dream scenario for me would be for them to approach McInnes and for him to tell them to ram it  

"moving to a massive club like Rangers is a big step with concomitant risk"

FFS. Gio as manager. That's a reasonable appointment

Can I be the first to say despite the contract until 2025 i reckon he will be away before summer 2023.

Not sure whether it is because he moves to a big club or gets punted as a failure

Stupid hun cunt

So a Hibs fan who abused a far right rangers supporter and member of the English Defence League is one of the Retards big stories today.

Awww poor EDL member.

In no way do I condone racial abuse but ffs.

This hun prick is a racist himself and I would guess a sectarian chanter week in week out.

Let's all feel sorry for him.

Scraping the 'victims' barrel now.

 

A decade since the Huns died (admin anyway, en route to death). Mental.

Will go down as the biggest failure in Scottish football history. With another glorious helicopter Sunday looming, and teams getting skelped by 4 or 5 regularly, we're back to the early 2000s heyday. What an opportunity.

Looks like a Hun or two are getting a wee slap in Belgrade.

And there we have yet another huge slice of luck going the way Der Hun.

1-0 down, under the cosh and a huge deflection makes it one each.

Their luck just keeps coming.

 

Ripping off their own fans.
