stonedsailor Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 More from that... There was also a long interval between the conclusion of the hearing and the release of the decision, occasioned in part by the complicated nature of the issues and in part by the fact that the tribunal was not unanimous—the panel members spent some time in discussions in the hope of achieving agreement and when it became clear that would not be possible the dissenting member wrote a lengthy decision of her own, necessarily taking time to do so. Those factors led to a suspicion in some quarters that material which could and should have been in the public domain was being concealed for inappropriate reasons. I also read the bit about threats to tax officials and witnesses. I wish Tedster would rejoin the thread but he hates it when he's proved wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same officials who were placed under surveillance in order to have there identities made public or is this another case? Dignity FC. Tedi is never wrong, only partially correct sometimes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"It is undisputed that various threats of a serious nature have been made, and that the Strathclyde Police have been compelled to offer advice and protection to several individuals involved in RFC’s affairs." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This continues: "Some of the threats have come from disappointed Rangers supporters; others from supporters of rival teams who have formed the opinion that RFC’s use of the EBT gave it an unfair financial advantage". As for Bishopp's remarks about what happened to the club, they are pretty vague stuff but it's unsurprising that the "you're deid" brigade have desperately seized on them. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clear as day, no matter how you read it, Rangers were a company, that company was liquidated in October last year after some of it's assets were sold, there is now a team calling themselves Rangers in the third tier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's another (vague) bit.. but it should nevertheless not be overlooked that a modern professional football club is not a “club”, in the sense of an unincorporated association of members who join together in pursuit of a common purpose, but a commercial enterprise whose function is to generate profits for its shareholders. The club is not separate it is incorporated = Liquidated/Dead 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it's a commercial enterprise. There are no "clubs" at all in that particular sense in the SPFL, except maybe Queens Park. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AberdeenBud Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 wasn't it the Ch4 bloke who revealed their names? 'Timmy' Thompson? That was the judges, not the HMRC officials that rangers had under surveillance. Any so called fan of any team threatening public officials is a complete and utter fucknugget. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talking of Alex T, have you seen this.... alex thomson@alextomo4h @tagsbo it's a pointless debate - you cannot "kill" an FC like Rangers. Isn't this obvious? And an FC is more than a PLC end of.
