pozbaird Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 No, seriously, Jim White is in real danger of spontaneously combusting live on TV. He needs to link from Rangers in crisis to Arsenal being minted, to the devices sent to Neil Lennon not having detonators, and therefore not being viable explosive devices. Poor Jim. He's having a cnut of a day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HibeeJibee Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Interview was never really going to give more than what we got. Whyte's purpose in doing it was clearly to demonstrate that he hasn't entirely cut-n-run... and beyond that, his answers were never going to be more than general "we've all got to pull together", "we will survive" and "I'm not walking away" platitudes. Ultimately, you can't believe a word he says whilst concurrently remembering he's not a fool, so any live interview isn't going to yield important insights. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drooper Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 (edited) I don't believe that was Craig Whyte at all. It sounded a bit like the guy who does the dodgy impersonations on Off the Ball. I was waiting on him bursting into his John Boyle/Frankie Howerd routine. Edited February 27, 2012 by Drooper 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Nomad Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 I think the only thing I learned from that interview is that Whyte is in Monaco. Certainly fits in with his playboy lifestyle that he appears to live. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergeant Wilson Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 cut-n-run... That's the nearest I've seen you come to swearing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmontheloknow Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 I loved Whye's line that "every penny going into the club has been accounted for" with regards to the missing millions. Of course, the missing millions didn't go into 'the club' in the first place, hence them being 'missing'! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacksgranda Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 (edited) That's the nearest I've seen you come to swearing. Yes indeed, could certainly have tripped yourself up saying/typing "cut-n-run" in a hurry. Edited February 27, 2012 by Jacksgranda 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Think Thursday will be a big crunch day. It is the 1st of March and the Dynamic Admin Duo have to sit down and decide do we have the cash to pay our bills for March; The wages, the police, the printers, the leccy bill, themselves, etc. If the answer is no then Rangers are 'trading as insolvent'. That is a crime and you may try and get away with it if it's your company but Adminstrators cannot - would lose their licenses and ability to work. I hope that Rangers end up doing what they have always claimed to do. They claim they support Scottish football by away fans visiting clubs. Hopefully next season they will be visiting Clyde & Elgin & Queens Park and spreading their largesse around the 3rd Division. SFL may even get a wee TV deal out of them having to work through the leagues from scratch. I hope that Thursday 1st march 2012 will go down in history as Liquidation Day. I hope it is the 15th - then we can be all Shakesperian.* Rangers fans would see it as a tragedy, the rest of us would recognise it as a farce. * Message to any young person who doesn't get this "Put down your X-box and pick up a book". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Is Whyte Brutus or Caesar? I see Whyte as Brutus and RFC as Caesar. Actually, I've just watched the SSN clip and take it all back! Whyte is a stand up guy! He's not walking away! He will be back at Ibrox! He is in a constant dialogue with the administrators! He's hurting like every other Rangers fan! If someone had written this as a farcical comedy it would have been rejected on the grounds of incredulity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
