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.

Beautiful. Almost as arousing as the second yellow that the hun got for a red card 😍

I've watched so many clips and seen so many memes. Honestly, it's been a great week. The misery about their own shitehole vs the national shitehole, then not filling it because its a shitehole and hard to get to. Irony is as expected, lost on them 🤣 Should remind them of this when we next play there. They don't deserve half the ground.

Possibly time we remove the "green abondons ship" from this thread title, no?  

Loads of juicy schadenfruede to be had over on hun media.   The poor wee zombie bears are awfa depressed and some of the clearer thinkers of them have clocked that even getting second place is under threat they are so bad.  A lot of them are even saying words to the effect that this is worse than being liquidated because they see no reason for hope at all.  You can understand it too!   Skint, homeless, clueless on the park, clueless in the transfer market  and the leadership acumen being shown by the board would genuinely be improved by hiring David Brent.

Inject that shit right into my veins cos that's never getting old.  

Suggestions for the name change? I agree, Green is very old school now 🤣

How about Dirthy Filthy Hun Scumbag Vermin (deceased and tribute act that followed). 

What's with the generic Turkish love in with Huns

Barasic & Lundstrum both there

Kent still there

Scott Shite just about went there but bottled it 

Ryhun Jack being linked with some second division team in Turkey now.

Doesn't exactly seem as if any of them have been a success either going by reports

You can see it being the only place the players can pick up similar wages to the ones the daft Huns were paying them but Christ knows what’s in it for the clubs.

I see Neil Warnock was at Ibrox this afternoon to cheer on his beloved.

Out of all of the clubs they could choose from, BBC have to keep associating him with us.  Can you have a word please.

I'm on holiday until Saturday. I don't want talk to any of them unless it's to make more holiday requests.

Get on the blower and tell them not to give Robson any more appearances on Sportscene as the man is cringeworthy and embarrassing himself repeatedly

Dick. I'm not sure if I detest him the same as or more than Alex Miller. 

Morelos heading behind bars? The logical place.

Hate Warnock more.  Miller at least tried.... It was a pathetic attempt but he didn't take charge just to tick a box..  

Warnock was always coming here for a jolly nothing more. Alex Miller was just shit at his job but was trying and had stats to back up why he was doing what he did even though it was clear to everyone but him it wasn’t going to work. 

£17 million loss on latest accounts

Yes you read that correctly 

Seventeen Million Pounds Sterling

That of course doesn't include the money they owe us for Droopy.

I personally would be happy to lose every penny of it if it meant these odious pricks going pop yet again.

The funny thing is, the mugs on swallow swallow actually think it’s a good thing as their revenue is up. A player sale and it’s all resolved. Oh aye? Which player is that? 😂

That'll be Kent or Morelos, worth about £30 million each 

Oh no, hud on a minute, there's a flaw in that sentence above 😉

Sevco going the same way as Rangers.

It’s a football debt so is guaranteed. 

Fantastic work overnight by the Dandies in Tenerife 😂😂😂

 

 

Given the 17 mill announcement I’d really like to know about Barron, how when and how much we are being paid??

Company in charge of making their Kit and running their merchandise sales apparenty lost £28.8million 
Contract with SEVCO runs till end of the season so perhaps a race to see which one folds first?
