think i'll be watching this game through my fingers from behind the sofa!...the thought of them winning the league at ibrox makes me boak,its gonna be a tough day for us bears regardless of the result but all we can ask for is a performance from these guys...far too many have been hiding recently,let's all hope the game passes without incident and the rangers show dignity....unlike some, who spring to mind not too far away!

My prediction for tomorrow, is ally go defensive we will get beat but if he goes with an more attaching formation we will get draw at least. But my guess is he will get the walter smith handbook back out and go with a first eleven with at least 7 defensive players starting hence a probable defeat.

Agree1 Disagree1

No we all know how you will play, the only you play is the big long ball and hope someone gets on the end of it. that has been the rangers way since your great manager walter took over and sally just plays the same way.That is called luck not football........b

I'm a Celtic fan but I think rangers will come out the traps tomorrow and play there best game for a while though tbh I don't think they could play any worse than they have of late. Celtics problem for me is nerves just like last week as we are very young team with an average age of just 23 but if we get an early goal I think we will win comfortably. But I will sit on the fence and go for a 1-1 draw. What's other folks thoughts.

Believable6 Unbelievable4

So what your saying is that Neil Lennon has made a mistake in signing and fielding young players? Or are you using age as an excuse for their bottle crashing?
GCUK

Agree1 Disagree6

Think Celtics problem is they want it too much which reflects in their play, they need to relax but this is more down to how young the team is. We have without doubt played our best football away from home this season, but i fear the over desire might be our downfall tomorrow but saying that if we get an early goal it could be a drubbing for you bears

Agree4 Disagree2

@2 what the f@ck are you talking about?

Agree1 Disagree2

Aye big mistake fielding a young team who are romping the league! And their Bottle crashed every week when they went on a 26 game unbeaten run eh? You sir are a clown!

Tomorrows team , IMO

Greegs
Bentfoot Goian boca papac
Aluko Edu Jig Wallace
Davis
Little

I reckon that could work against them, (or start bedoya on the left but I don't think Wallace or Sassa will be left out.
PaulRFC

Believable1 Unbelievable4

I agree with the wallace and papac not been left out hence the fact that will spell our demise. Ally has tried either wallace or papac left mid on numerous occassions and it does not work and wont work tomorrow.

24 Mar 2012 20:49:11
I hope the very small number that only want to spout bile will control themselves tomorrow win lose or draw. Let's show the world WE ARE THE BEST FANS AND WE ARE THE PEOPLE let's get behind the team and cheer them

B****cks Wallace at rb? Edu at right mid? Papac cm? Give me some of what ur smokin?

Lee

Agree3 Disagree1

Hope Papac not in midfield hes better at LB

Agree1 Disagree2

Would have Papac at left back, Wallace left midfield,Broadfoot at right back, Aluko right midfield, and maybe Davis playing in front of defence, maybe he could dictate play more, Edu and Jig center mid and play Little up front
4,5,1

Agree0 Disagree0

I would not have either wallace or papac in left mid both are crap in there and we dont get anything down the left side when this happens

Agree1 Disagree0

No 4 So who would you play down the left side?

Don't know if its just me being the glass half full optimistic kind of person that I always am but I'm looking forward to the game tomorrow and think that we'll get a positive result does any one agree or oan I just living on a planet of my own just have a feeling everything will just click like it did in the 2nd half of the last game at the brox but we need the players to step up and the fans to sing up and rock the brox and get behind the team for the whole match.

Hopefully kenny boy. have a hunch we will do the business tmw, going for a 2-0 win with davis and aluko grabbing a goal in either half. been wrong before, but at least i admit it ! got to be in it to win it. reckon they might be a bit complacent like their fans will be as they have it won tmw already (though its only a matter of time when they do) but you can predict this game so it will be the usual frenetic stuff with ensuing bedlam !

deejay!

Believable8 Unbelievable10

And what would the required dignity to run an old fim club have to be . Should we ask Murray , Whyte , Bain , etc , the dignity is oozing from them.......DH

Agree7 Disagree2

You talk of dignity, this coming from a club that does not have any... look at your own leaders/owners/coaches of your club before you talk of dignity and also look at you fans singing secatarian songs, Celtic are on a completely different scale then yous. They show how a club should be runned and if your club acted like it had dignity like lawwell it would not be in this mess. Stop with your dump thinking and look at your club before you say anything about another club and its ppl. 5-0 tmr, hope you fans bring some of that dignity you talk about tmr but doubt you know the meaning of the word.

Hi Ed please correct me if I'm wrong but you need 75% or more of creditors debt to to agree to a pence in the pound offer to create a CVA now with HMRC being owed 15m if we lose the BTC that will rise to nearly 65m (total debt being close to 90m) this amount would give HMRC main creditor status as far as CVA concerned taking Ticketus out of the picture if as reported we can agree a deal 30 or 40p in the pound I would think meaning it would cost new buyer approx 35m to pay off creditors and be debt free so in a weird sort of a way losing the BTC might just help save the club

Believable3 Unbelievable3

10p in the £ would be better. There will never be £30- 40m left/ going into "the pot" for the CVA. 9 or £10m is more realistic. One would have to assume that other bids (from the blue knights) would be better for the creditors as a whole. Following the judge's wooly direction on Friday, this surely gives credence to setting aside ticketus issue. I guess that's why they were quick to align themselves with blue knights- to attempt to protect their investment. No sure why blue knigt bid so readily accepted them on board. It's just complicated the issue and given ticketus the opportunity to point to the blue knight bid and say it's best for RFC, when all they're obviously bothered about is their money. If ticketus were no aligned with any bid it would be pretty plain that their presence discourages any potential investor and could thus be set aside, following the judge's "verdict" on Friday.

Agree0 Disagree0

24 Mar 2012 15:46:36
In the modern age of data protection etc. would the ticketus deal really be "ripped up" if proved invalid?!? I, for one, feel that the confidential waste for shredding would be the safer option.

Here's an idea lads what about turning ibrox into the terraces again and that way we would get more fans packed into ibrox meanin we would get more season tickets up for sale extra cash to get rid of that ticketus ASAP , just a thought what u guys think ?

Believable1 Unbelievable2

Who is going to pay for this ?

Agree3 Disagree0

Is it even legal?

Agree1 Disagree0

24 Mar 2012 15:15:27
Don't understand the negativity since yesterday's decision, or lack of decision, to be honest. It appears doom and gloom, yet it should not be. The judge has ruled out the idea that ticketus are a secured creditor. That means they have no hold over the seats. They will have to accept a pence in the pound deal or get nothing. This could assist Murray to negotiate a better and longer deal to repay them.

It is clear that the judge left the door open for us to void the contract, however this would clearly mean more lengthy court cases. However if Whyte is telling the truth, and I understand that this would be the first time, that the ticketus deal is secured by him, then ticketus would need to go against him. However you can't get blood out of a stone, and don't think whyte has any money.

My prediction is that the Blue Knights will be named preferred bidder next week.
They have clearly had discussions with HMRC and so they must be confident that a deal can be done.
Whyte and Collyer Bristow will end up in court, and whyte will likely do time. He will also be made bankrupt.
My big concern is that the fans do not back the share issue, we have a history of this, and that we could find ourselves in trouble again in the not too distant future. So fans must step up. The response for the fighting fund had been poor.

However it is incredible that Rangers are in this mess, a brand that frankly if they bottled s**t with a rangers crest on it, ppl would buy it. It is time to run this business properly. They have so many options to make money. Have an open day with fans able to meet players and charge £10 a picture, £10 for pics of fans with trophies, £30 for a signed top. Just think 30,000 people paying £50 - £1.5m? Open day at Murray Park, dinners, auctions for memorabilia signed by old and present players. It just seems noddy can think out of the box.

I wish my business was this easy to increase income.

Believable3 Unbelievable3

Your rite ive thought this for years theres no way either half of the old firm should run at a loss. we have been run badly as a buisness sense for the last 25 years ever since money mattered so much. there a million things that could be done which would alao bring in more fans too . for example the worst one for me , sdm filled in corners puting big screens at a cost of millions. he couldve put seats and made millions maybe 6 or 7000 seats extra its a no brainer

Yesterday Lord Hodge issued his decision in the application by D&P for “Directions” in connection with their handling of the Rangers administration – [2012] CSOH 55.

 

New or Extra Information from the Case

 

1                     Rangers Football Club PLC (Rangers) was and remains unable to pay its bills as they fall due.

 

2                     The application for the Administration Order referred to a £9 million liability to HMRC.

 

3                     The administrators (D&P) want either to rescue Rangers with a share issue, or to sell off the assets of the company, in either event with a CVA.

 

4                     D&P wanted the court to give them carte blanche to breach the Ticketus deal, without fear of legal action by Ticketus.

 

5                     D&P based their original sale prospectus on the Ticketus deal being void, but had to amend this to include the possibility of it staying in place.

 

6                     “Ticketus” is a combination of two Limited Liability Partnerships, Ticketus LLP and Ticketus 2 LLP, both consisting of a large number of companies under the Ticketus umbrella.

 

7                     The Ticketus agreement was with Rangers, not with Rangers FC Group Ltd (Group) or anyone else.

 

8                     The agreement was signed, and first payment of £20 million made, on 9th May, 3 days after the takeover.

 

9                     It was proposed that Rangers would lend Group £16 million.

 

10                 A second payment of £5 million was made six days after Martin Bain was granted a court order freezing sums in the Rangers accounts.

 

11                 Notwithstanding any other argument D&P have, they are trying to have the Ticketus deal declared unenforceable on “financial assistance” grounds.

 

I aim to discuss the new information revealed in this case below in more detail.

In later posts I want to explain some of the implications of the case for Rangers’ future and potential sale of the Club.

Finally, it is also the case that the decision could have serious consequences for the Scottish finance sector, which I will try to address. As always, I am happy to be educated and corrected by those wiser than me.

 

Do We Learn Anything New From The Decision?

Yes.

This case and Lord Hodge’s decision are the first public acknowledgement of many issues which have been causing confusion since the Rangers situation started to deteriorate.

The relevant, and in some cases, newly revealed facts are as follows:-

Rangers Insolvency

As we know D&P had to go back to the court on the basis that their original appointment by Rangers was defective, because of a failure to notify the FSA. When Mr Sellar (D&P’s QC) asked the court to grant an administration order backdated to 14th February, this confirmed (a) that Rangers accepted that it had been insolvent as at 14th February and (b) that D&P accepted that Rangers remained so on 19th March when the retrospective administration was dealt with.

Mr Sellar referred the court to a debt of over £9 million to HMRC. That is assumed to relate to the unpaid VAT and Income Tax accrued by Rangers whilst under the control of Mr Whyte, or more correctly of his companies.

 

How Do D&P Aim to Get Rangers out of Administration?

D&P have come up with two alternative ways of achieving the purposes of administration. They are laid down in the Administration Rules. The primary purposes are, in order, to rescue Rangers as a going concern, which failing, to achieve a better result for the creditors as a whole than if it was wound up without first being in administration.

D&P have identified, and told the court, that they see two realistic options.

Option one is a “subscription of new shares in Rangers and a sale of the present majority shareholding combined with a Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA) between Rangers and its creditors”.

The alternative is “a sale of the business and assets of Rangers, again combined with a CVA”.

I will come back to these later.

 

What Were D&P Wanting the Court to do, and Why?

The Administration Rules allow administrators to approach the court for “directions”. These can be sought to give the “green light” to planned actions, or to validate steps taken by the administrators. In addition, this procedure can be used to clarify matters which may be in dispute regarding the administration.

In this case D&P initially asked the court for a direction as follows:-

“as to whether the administrators can be prevented from causing [Rangers] to terminate, albeit in breach of their terms, the [Ticketus agreements].”

As the hearing continued, the application was amended to request, in the alternative:-

“a direction as to the legal nature of the rights which the agreements confer on Ticketus in respect of (i) the Company’s Stadium, and (ii) the proceeds of future sales of season tickets for that Stadium;”

and

“a direction as to the legal test which is to be applied by [the] administrators or by the court in determining whether those administrators can be prevented from causing the company to terminate the agreements, albeit in breach of their terms.”

What does this mean?

From the limited press coverage of the court hearing, it seemed that the only issue was that D&P found the Ticketus deal inconvenient as regards a sale, and therefore they wanted permission to “rip it up”.

As we can see, there was a lot more than that!

The initial application was to for confirmation from the court that D&P could not be stopped from breaching the Ticketus agreement on behalf of Rangers. This was based on the premise that the Ticketus deal was valid (to which I will return) and that there was no contractual reason permitting the breach of contract.

If D&P decided to breach the contract with Ticketus, they wanted to be sure that Rangers would not be on the receiving end of a court action either preventing the breach by interdict, or ordering Rangers to perform it.

Whilst in administration no such action could be pursued without consent of D&P or the court. However, if Rangers emerged from administration, D&P did not want the company to be saddled with the Ticketus deal, and if the deal was broken, then the Ticketus claim would, at best, be an unsecured claim in the CVA.

The first added request was for a direction on the nature of the Ticketus “rights” and what legal form this took as regards Ibrox and the proceeds of future ticket sales. This part is probably the most legally complex, and the area of broadest legal impact (of which more later).

The second added request was for Lord Hodge to lay down a formula to be applied by D&P and the courts in deciding if D&P could be stopped from breaking the Ticketus contract. This was an attempt to get round the possibility that, under the originally formulated request, the direction could have been refused, whereas this new method would, even if refused, tell D&P what they had to do.

 

Why Was This Important?

D&P issued a “Memorandum of Offer” inviting expressions of interest in acquiring either the majority shareholding in Rangers or most of its business assets. The Memorandum of Offer issued on 14 March 2012 invited interested parties to assume that “no future revenue needs to be committed to Ticketus” both in the context of a CVA and a trade sale of Rangers’ business and assets. D&P issued a revised Memorandum on 16 March 2012 which contained a third option of a CVA in which the arrangements with Ticketus continued to have effect.

Any bidders for either Rangers or the assets needs to know if there is an ongoing liability to Ticketus.

In the same way, any bidder for Rangers, as opposed to the assets, needs to know the outcome of the Big Tax Case first.

 

Who or What is Ticketus?

One of the apparent mysteries in this case related to the identity of Ticketus.

The press statement released by Octopus on 17th February did not really help make things crystal clear.

“Octopus Investments would like to clarify the position of Ticketus with regard to the current Glasgow Rangers coverage.

Ticketus is one of the many entities into which Octopus Protected EIS invests. Ticketus has purchased tickets for Glasgow Rangers games for a number of seasons in advance, as it has done for a number of years previously with the club.

Ticketus does not lend money; Ticketus is the owner of assets – the tickets. Octopus is continuing to work with the administrators and Glasgow Rangers on this matter.”

Lord Hodge notes that “Ticketus” for the purposes of this action consists of two limited liability partnerships registered in England, namely Ticketus LLP and Ticketus 2 LLP.

Both of these are, as stated, limited liability partnerships. The “partners” in each are a large number of Ticketus companies, each with an individual number.

The first LLP has, as per its last accounts (July 2010), over £92 million of net assets, with the second just over £70 million. Between the pair at that time they had cash as per the balance sheets of £131 million. Therefore, even though these are wealthy organisations, and they exist primarily to provide tax breaks to investors, the Rangers deal is a large and risky one for them.

Ticketus LLP formed in November 2008 and Ticketus 2 LLP in June 2009.

For such large organisations, in monetary terms, the combined total number of employees was only 23.

 

What Was the Ticketus Deal?

Lord Hodge describes it thus:-

“Ticketus operates a business of buying and selling tickets for, among others, sporting events. The two contracts with Ticketus, which I discuss below, in summary involve the sale by Rangers to Ticketus of season tickets and an agency arrangement by which Ticketus is to receive the income flow from the sale of the season tickets. On or about 9 May 2011 Ticketus paid £20,300,912 for the first tranche of the season tickets which covered the seasons 2011-2012, 2012-2013 and 2013-2014. On or about 21 September 2011 Ticketus paid a further £5,075,213 for the second tranche of season tickets, which covered the seasons 2013-2014 and 2014-2015. I am informed that the expected income flow from the sale of the season tickets is likely to represent about 60% of the cash flow of Rangers in those seasons. Accordingly, the sale of that income flow is likely to have a significant effect on what interested parties may bid for the majority shareholding in Rangers or for that company’s business and assets.”

This clarifies a lot of the misinformation and speculation about the Ticketus deal.

 

1                     It was not and is not a loan.

2                     The contract was between Rangers Football Club PLC (Rangers) and Ticketus.

3                     It was not a contract directly involving Group, Liberty Capital Ltd or anyone else.

4                     The money was not paid until after the takeover had been effected.

5                     Therefore, whilst the arrangements were put in place prior to the sale, the purchase of shares by Group proceeded in advance of the Ticketus payment.

6                     The takeover was not paid for by Rangers.

7                     Ticketus paid a second tranche in excess of £5 million on 21st September 2011.

 

I find point 7 particularly interesting. The payment was made to Rangers six days after Lord Hodge granted an order in favour of Martin Bain permitting him to freeze a substantial sum within Rangers bank accounts.

This might help to explain how Rangers managed to keep going when some observers were guessing that the money would have run out by then. In addition of course the non-payment of tax at a rate of around £1 million per month would also have helped with the cash flow!

The contract for the sale of season tickets was dated, as I have said, 9th May and it provided that the sale would take place in two tranches. It seems very fortuitous for Rangers that, six days after a judge decided that there was, in light of the Big Tax Case, a serious risk of insolvency, Ticketus paid for more tickets for 2013-2014 and for 2014-2015!

By that stage of course, HMRC had already arrested £2.3 million in Rangers accounts.

Were Ticketus looking to get out of the deal, or were they in a position where the only realistic way of protecting the investment was to pay over more money? If the latter, that fully explains why Ticketus is involved with one of the consortia trying to buy Rangers.

 

D&P Are Trying to strike the Ticketus Deal Down

Lord Hodge also confirms that D&P are trying to have the Ticketus deal declared unenforceable. This is over and above the issues explored in this application, and whilst the judge mentioned it, he offered no view at this time.

The argument by D&P seems to be as follows.

1                     Rangers would use the payment for the first tranche of tickets to “effect repayment” of the £18 million owed by Rangers to the Bank of Scotland.

2                     Rangers would lend Group £16 million to “enable that debt to be repaid” and the “bank’s debt and its securities would be assigned to (Group)”.

3                     Such an arrangement is, according to D&P, illegal under s678 of the Companies Act 2006. This is the so-called “financial assistance” rule.

D&P have a choice about how to deal with the Ticketus deal on the “financial assistance” point.

They can go to court for an order that the contract is unenforceable, or the contract can be repudiated by them, on behalf of Rangers, and they can defend any court action which Ticketus might later bring, subject to the complications caused by administration etc.

Either way, it seems that Ticketus and D&P are likely to be back in court on a regular basis.

The best thing about being neutral is that you can see parody in BOTH sides, if only you have the ability to laugh at yourself. That's why I could imagine myself as a disapproving dad shouting at my squabbling kids.

“Pack that in both of you! Billy, I don't care if Timmy's player dived, it's just a computer game. Billy! Stop strangling Timmy with that Union Jack, he's turning blue and you know he hates that colour. And stop shouting 'We are the people' – there's only one of you.”

“Timmy! Stop rubbing your jelly and ice cream in Billy's face! I only bought you that because you said you hadn't had it in 3 years. Right, that's it. give me the bowl, it's going in the bin and you're not getting any jelly and ice cream ever again.”

There must be no hate on or off the pitch, no stupid songs to wind up the celtic fans and the same thing must be expected from them.
We can only hope the match will be incident free, and the same thing applies to before and after the game

Agree mate to be honest, but a wee rant here if you all bear with me, i have to say that i am a bit sick to death with the whole molly coddle so to speak about this old firm thing. i mean, the rivalry should ALWAYS be there and its healthy but some people seem to intervene a bit too much by claiming sectarian undertones to everything. we all know what both clubs are about and what they are, but there is a lot of tradition with these 2 clubs and i love it. not a fan of the bad element but i am a traditionalist of the fixture all the same. it seems to me that certain people play the religion card a bit to easy, when if you look at manchester, liverpool, london or even birmingham where they have passionate rivalry where none of this is relevant in their derby games, yet we cant here without outrage of sectarian hatred (though it does exist) point being we complain to easy about this and that and bitch about this and that. just go to the game and enjoy it. rant over lads !

Rangers need to find a total of only
£123 Million to clear all its debts. So
far they have raised £150,000. A long
way still to go but I am sure with lots
of car washing and fundraising we can
get there.

£15 Million - HMRC
£75 Million - HMRC
£27 Million - Ticketus
£6 Million - Other Creditors

With a club that still will be running at
a loss of £3-5 Million a season which is
mostly due to managing its debts.
A new buyer could make a lot of cash
over a period of ten years if the clear
all the debts in one go.

I can only think of appealing to Don

Court ruling raises stakes in Rangers takeover fight
Published on 24 March 2012

Martin Williams

A BIDDING war is expected for control of Rangers after a court ruling left the door open for administrators to tear up the four-year season ticket deal.

Lord Hodge's opinion in the Court of Session leaves the way clear for Duff & Phelps to renege on the deal with Ticketus – which raised more than £20 million to finance Craig Whyte's takeover of Rangers – if it is in the interest of the creditors of the club.

Lord Hodge said courts "would be slow to disrupt" the administration process by considering any legal move to force the Ticketus deal to be honoured.

The administrators, who told Lord Hodge they believe the deal struck with Ticketus and Whyte is illegal, could get more money from the sale of Rangers, providing greater value for creditors such as the taxman, if there was no deal.

Buyers are believed to have either stayed away from bidding, or devalued the Ibrox club because of the Ticketus deal, which gives the agency 60% of all ticket sales from Ibrox over the next four years, worth more than £30m.

Lord Hodge's rulings will not just speed up the sale of the club, but could also bring in new bidders, the administrators believe.

Former Rangers director Paul Murray's Blue Knights, Sale Sharks owner Brian Kennedy, Chicago-based Prometheus Capital Partners and an unidentified British consortium, have made conditional offers.

A Middle East consortium, a Singapore group fronted by Glasgow-based businessman

Shazad Bakhsh and New York-based financiers Fortress are understood to be keeping a watching brief.

Paul Clark, joint administrator, said: "We welcome the decisions announced by Lord Hodge and view them as a significant step towards clarifying the future for Rangers Football Club.

"Lord Hodge has made it clear the Ticketus arrangements do not mean Ticketus has property or real rights over seats at the stadium or, indeed, the proceeds from the sale of future season tickets."

Duff & Phelps is now planning to create a shortlist of bids and said it expected the decision to have a "significant bearing on the proposals put forward by bidders to date".

However, London-based Ticketus believes its bid for Rangers with the Blue Knights, which keeps the ticket deal intact, is in the "best interests of the club".

It said: "With every week that passes, further value is destroyed in the club. To conclude the administration process as soon as possible so that the club can secure its future in the hands of a new owner is in everyone's interest. We feel confident that we can conclude this process more swiftly than other bidders.

"Ticketus has a duty to its investors to protect the investment that it currently has in the club."

If the administrators breach the deal, it is understood that the agency, while an unsecured creditor, would have to chase majority shareholder Craig Whyte for any losses.

And, while Whyte believes he has preferred creditor status with first claim on assets such as Ibrox and Murray Park, the court-appointed administrators believe this is invalid because there is no evidence he put any of his money into the club.

Court papers show the first confirmation that the administrators' legal advisers believe the Ticketus deal with Whyte is illegal on the grounds that it was indirectly providing financial assistance for the acquisition of Rangers shares, contrary to the Companies Act 2006.

Lord Hodge was unable to give guidance on the immediate termination of the Ticketus contract because details of competing bids could not be divulged. However, his full opinion accepted the general principle that the deal could be breached in administration, and if the club is wound up.

He also rejected a move by Ticketus to place a trust over the proceeds of the sale of the tickets, to try to make the deal unassailable, ruling that it had "purely personal contractual ......

This was from today's herald, so things might be not to bad, looks like ticketus are more up creek with whyte than with rangers

The Scottish high court refuses to rip up the ticketus deal and says the contract stands. It's actually over £25m and growing with interest.
Two of the 4 bids were conditional on the ticketus contract being scratched, which it is now obviously not. Ergo, there are only 2 bids left including P Murray (fit and proper?) associated with ticketus. How will they pay off HMRC?
