There's this snippet:
So ... 600/12=50. Fifty thosuand quid on average, not to mention the division of the the money being slanted towards the top two ...
The loss of the those 600 thousand per season will kill Scottish football ...
What BS!

Not making the CL group stage did Rangers in.
I believe that in previous years the club had been chipping away away at its debt mountain. Had they made the CL groups, Rangers today probably would had been finnancially better off than at the start of the season. Not sure of the impact of EL group stage.
But this season, with no money from European Cups, and assuming they were on top of their taxes, they would had been haemoraging what - 1M? 2M? 3M? quid a month.
So they'd have to sell more than just Jelavic in January.
Or am I totally wrong?

I don't understand ...
So, RFC "breaches" contract to Ticketus - thus the 24 million "advance" becomes "debt".
Yet the ticket guys get their 24M back after 2015?
Wouldn't this be getting their money twice? For one penny to the pound in then CVA and then again - this time from actual sale of tickets - after 2015?

Fenerbahce did have problems with printing enough tickets for the "women and children only" match. I've seen an interview where an officer of the club lauded the women for not rioting while waiting for the tickets to arrive from the printers.
They sold some 45,000, IIRC.

1 - SPD immediatelly made me think of Socially Permitted Disease ...
2 - can't divisions be counted from the top down: one, two, three? Must they be "ultra-uber", "not quite so uber but ultra nonetheless", "first", "second" ... ?

Where are Rangers getting the money to pay their players, non-playing staff, police, Puffy&Duffy, etc.
Is somebody actually lending them money? Or is the RFC accumulating unpaid bills?
