Agree0 Disagree0

2) snowy the dug is the one they all want to talk to. Welcome back snowy!

Agree0 Disagree0

Whos snowy?

Agree0 Disagree0

I reckon when the end of the season comes and we find out CW has auctioned off Broxi you should try enrol Snowy as the new mascot

Agree0 Disagree0

Snowy Whyte?

Agree0 Disagree0

Let snowy do the talking from now on think youve had too many dog treats

Agree0 Disagree0

Snowy the dog is that hard when logi baird invented the phone he already had 2 missed calls from snowy

thepossonutter

Agree0 Disagree0

I know a dug called Wullie

Yes snowy is that much of a famous dog that hardly any1 has heard of him/her

Overheard this in an upmarket bar so definitley just a rumour - suggestion was that SDM and old board knew exactly what Craig Whyte was but needed a scapegoat so that they could get themselves out of trouble, offload all the debt they couldnt repay let CW take the club to administration and then look like heroes coming to save the day but didnt actually know quite how bad things were or abbout Ticketus so havent quite managed to pull it off - as I said cannot verify anything but find it very plausible can we really trust those connected with the mismanagement and downright theft f the old board ?

Believable34 Unbelievable17

Never read so much mince on this site in my life. Who in their right mind would let someone they knew was a con man come in and add about another 30 million to our debt then buy the club back even worse off ?. I do think though that SDM knew about whyte and he had become so desperate that he felt he had no choice. The others tried to talk him out of it remember, and if anything the determination from the BK kinda through a spanner in their works.

Agree0 Disagree0

SDM, Whyte, Ticketus, TBK and D&P are all in the same team.

Agree0 Disagree0

When Ally was for jumping off the ledge at Murray Park one week into Admin. SDM had to drive down the M8 from Rdinburgh to talk him down from the ledge and let him in on the act.
Words not trusted to telephones or email. Closely spoken in the shell like.

Agree0 Disagree0

CW promised SDM that he would put 25 million of his own money into RFC and clear the overdraft. SDM forgot to ask him where he was getting the money. The 25 million was his own money AFTER he bought Rangers for a pound. Not illegal just economical with the truth or duped in plain English.
However SDM is not naive, he must have realised a sharp businessman is not going to invest 25 million in a business that may be facing insolvency in a year due to a huge tax debt.
ONCE RANGERS GOT KNOCKED OUT EARLY IN MOST CUPS THEIR FATE WAS SEALED. NOW YOU HAVE A 10 MILLION LOSS MAKING BUSINESS WITH HUGE DEBTS AT THE END OF THE YEAR.

Time to phone a friend.

Agree0 Disagree0

They all underestimated the interest and criticism of everyone non Rangers including people a lot smarter than anyone previously or currently associated with Rangers.
Lawyers, QCs, judges, accountants, CEOs, Directors, professors all took a very close interest and the shame came flooding out.

Agree0 Disagree0

I think everyone knew RFC was gambling every year on CL group stages, when they failed it was an automatic 10 milion loss, eventually the losses mounted up to an unsustainable level.....and then in Jan 2010 the BTC bomb went off.

Just back from Edinburgh airport sitting waiting for my brother who was on a flight from London and who walks through from the arrivals Brian Kennedy Paul Murray and Donald park the blue nights are coming to save the most successful club in the world Happy days are here again

Believable25 Unbelievable45

Pish. I saw Donald Park drive out his driveway in the morning.

Agree0 Disagree0

Hope this one is correct - If anyone needs to know what Scottish football would be like without RFC - just look at the Motherwell game today!

Who was carrying their bags ELVIS ?
Was he singing just pretend ?

Suspicious mind !

Agree0 Disagree0

I and so was bill gates

Agree0 Disagree0

Is it raining on your planet,

Agree0 Disagree0

Well what will be will be. I'm nor getting my hopes up yet. But fingers crossed . It certainly won't be a sugar daddy scenario mind.

Agree0 Disagree0

U have been in the exec lounge too long mate, make ur way to departures immediately,

Agree0 Disagree0

Ha ! its started

really feel sorry for you ed usually the 'airport' posts only happen during the transfer window

lenny

Agree0 Disagree0

Sorry mate, but Jesus Christ, Allah, Budha and Mohamad combined couldn't save Rangers now.

Trust me, for Rangers Football Club 1872, it's over. And that's even without the outcome of the big tax case.

Agree0 Disagree0

Brilliant Look at Motherwell game !

RFC even if they survive couldn't afford the players motherwell have or any of the so called diddy teams players as your fans like to say !
So who would want to watch RFC play once "diddies" they field a team of very
mediocre players the get on loan from lower divisions?
Still delusional !

Agree0 Disagree0

Just back from Glasgow airport dropping off my uncle Elvis, and guess who walks through arrivals, Craig Whyte, the team from Duff & Duffer, SDM and the Grim Reaper, the Goodnights are coming to close you down.

Agree0 Disagree0

It's not Donald park ya blaw hard it's Douglas park!!!

Agree0 Disagree0

Why would they be out the country are the laural and hardy from d&p not up here working?

Agree0 Disagree0

Why edinburgh

Agree0 Disagree0

Lovin it

Agree0 Disagree0

They must have got the wrong plane if they are visiting Linfield.

Aye, dinnae spend and you may die. spend £10 for every £5, and you'll live... at least a while, racking up trophies ye shouldnae hae. But a cold wind will blow thorough, many years from now, would you be willin' to trade ALL the days of yer club, from that day to this, for one chance, just one chance, at Euro football and 10 league titles, to come back here and tell our rivals that they may take our history, but they'll never take that decade...hand on, CW owns everything, oh well, Karma.

Agree0 Disagree0

Does any1 else have the benny hill theme tune in there head?

Agree0 Disagree0

Hey guys, "don't be cruel"to the OP
I was the taxi driver with the" royal blue siede shoes on" who picked them up can confirm they were "all shook up" about something !
I dropped them at the "Heartbreak hotel"I heard them say "it's now or never" so don't be cruel " "a little less conversation" some more action is what is needed Said one of the BKs!
Also said they think wee Craig Fu**ed off

to "viva las Vagas" to look for the his next big pay day and they hope he ends up
doing the "jailhouse rock "
Got to go now "so love me tender" "teady bear"

TBK have won the race to take over Rangers, and will be announced as Preferred Bidders tomorrow.

Final details have been ironed out over the weekend and agreed with D&P.

Ticketus are involved, but Kennedy is not, at this stage anyway.

The BK will now proceed with D&P to agree a CVA with creditors before the deadlines for further footballing sanctions to be imposed.

Whytes shareholding to be secured In exchange for him not being sued for his PG by Ticketus.

CVA likely to agreed as talks already taken place between D&P and HMRC and HMRC are not going to be too difficult to deal with, and as they will have the major say, this will see the CVA go through.

The club will NOT be liquidated!
live on the rangers media.....ha

deecee

Believable24 Unbelievable42

Think u r living in a fantasy land, TBK have less than 10 mil between them, not even enough for 10p in the pound CVA. One thing is for sure HMRC do not cut deals for VAT fraud. So Craig Whyte will be to blame for the clubs demise but also Rangers fans as a share scheme could have raised enough to purchase the club before Whyte got the keys. So enjoy ur NEWCO in division 3!!

Agree0 Disagree0

Wake up bears, u r all dreaming

Agree0 Disagree0

And they all lived happily ever after.

well that was a nice story. now away from the world of make believe. the blue knights wont get rangers. tickitus wont be involved cause who would trust someone that leaves their bid at the 11th hour to mess up another bidders deal. the cva wont be agreed and rangers will go bust. tesco will run out of jelly and ice cream, we'll be having a party and the evil rangers will be dead. thats a real happy ending

Agree0 Disagree0

Oh dont worry you'll soon get relegated to Div 3 after your double contract case result! Goodbye

Agree0 Disagree0

Hope this aint more tosh as am sick of ppl talking pish on this site.

Agree0 Disagree0

Do really wish Celtic supporters would stop commenting on this.

Here's hoping this rumours true.

Agree0 Disagree0

Putting "ha" at the end of your post is absolutely shameless, you do realise that if what you posted was true a CVA fleece's every company that Rangers owe money to?Companies that have done nothing wrong except do business with Rangers. That is nothing to HA about.

Agree0 Disagree0

Some Negative Comments from Celtic fans here, Starting to think that YOU DONT WANR USE TO SURVIVE, Never realsied that you all are experts in this, FS you all must be well informed. NOT!!

Agree0 Disagree0

This story is half true. TBK have likely "won" the "race" to be preferred bidders. That much is fairly easy to surmise given that they know exactly the price and have said they will be back in so its not likely they would offer less. As confirmed by BBC Brian Kennedy is helping but NOT financially. The rest however is likely to be a drawn out process, potentially involvining litigation. The only other "bidder" has said himself he sees CVA as difculit to achieve and has been given the same info as TBKs. This is not a buyover its the start of a lengthy and potentially unsuccessful process which, while nobody can be sure of the outcome, CVA still remains a long shot even if Ticketus and Whyte play ball. As for the notion of winners and a race, lets be clear, this has been a succession of reluctant bidders, and no wonder. Its a mess.

Agree0 Disagree0

Time to wake up and smell the coffee fellow bears, the cva isn't going to happen Hmrc make up about 75% of the creditors and they wont accept. Especially with the new legislation preventing phoenix companies starting up debt free. We are F****d.

Agree0 Disagree0

Christ almighty...

It's called denial; that's right, denial.

Agree0 Disagree0

Blue Knights can't cope with it, they couldnt even provide a £500000 deposit.

Agree0 Disagree0

Nothing reported on rangers media.
Nuts!

Agree0 Disagree0

When are "Sellic" fans going to realise that both clubs need each other...oh wait a minute I forgot you's will be to busy winning the champions league next season to bother with the SPL cos that's what your "legendary" manager believes!

Agree0 Disagree0

Wow....realy hatefull people on here .....kinda sad really...they all seem to know how much money people have ...fekin knowall tims is all.....deecee

Agree0 Disagree0

(deecee) please lay off the meths it'll rot your brain

Agree0 Disagree0

It is no more a source than Craig Whyte pays taxes! Rangers media just another rumour mill! Even if BK do get prefered bidder status there is a long road to go, so dont get too excited.

Agree0 Disagree0

Personally speaking I think it's a disgrace that anyone who was involved in the club prior to Rangers going into administration should even be allowed to table an offer

Agree0 Disagree0

Awfully sorry to bring good news on our own teams rumourmill....just kills all the bitter tims...just dont understand where you all got your accountancy diplomas ....so yous have seen tbk bank balance....yous have seen the cva....na on both counts......you lot are just scared stiff we come back and pump you next year......in fact terrified comes to mind ...once again ..HA!...deecee

Agree0 Disagree0

Rangers media have taken the story off.....pressured probably as this story was not supposed to be leaked.....oh and by the way ...were coming back stronger than ever.....waitnsee....deecee

Agree0 Disagree0

Tbk have not won the race to takeover at ibrox this is a smokescreen rangers will be liquidated tommorrow and therefor the death of a great club will be confirmed. just so sad it has came to this.

Agree0 Disagree0

Lets all criticise the BK, at least they are trying to save our club. The majority of posts appear to be ready to throw the towel in. We are not out of it yet.
Support the BK, Support Glasgow Rangers!

Agree0 Disagree0

Let me tell you straight tbk have not won the race to be prefferred bidders and why is there no protests at ibrox have all you fellow gers fans given up. lets have a go at the media people talking to paul clark yesterday giving him an easy ride. ask him what craig whyte done with the jelavic money the arsenal shares money and the ticketus money. ask them why they cocked up when we thought we were in administration then it turned out we were not we had to get a court to ratify it. ask them why they are suing craig whytes lawyers for loss of earnings they cannot do this as noone could have predicted how much we would have earned in craig whytes time also are they really working for whyte and liquidation has been their plan all along and was it their representatives meeting whyte over the weekend at the balmoral hotel to finalise our liquidation. serious questions noone asking them. duff and duffer and whyte the knight have planned this from the start and us fans have been duped conned and whatever else you want to call it. come on gers fans rally round and stop bill miller taking over and liquidating our great club. peaceful protests can work our club needs you.

Agree0 Disagree0

Hmrc have never ever agreed a cva with a football club in uk to date.... absolute garbage to suggest they will with rangers

Agree0 Disagree0

Mystic Meg strikes again.

Agree0 Disagree0

If there was such a thing as the claptrap mantra police I shudder to think how many Rangers fans would be in the cells. In Craig We Trust, We Don't Do Walking Away and now the third one "HMRC wont be too difficult to deal with". Based on what exactly? Worse case scenario Rangers owe them what? Small Tax Case £4m, Big Tax Case potentially £80m, unpaid taxes since Whyte took over plus penalties, I think that was £11m, so in total, worse case scenario as I say, Rangers may owe them £95m. So you offer a derisory 10p in the pound, £9.5m. Here's the thing, unlike Dunfermline and arguably Hearts, Rangers non-payments to date, as I say potentially £95m, hasn't crippled HMRC, hasn't seen it buckle under the lack of cash winging its way from Ibrox. Why? Because they deal in billions not millions over a year. "Oh but think of the money they'll lose out on, they are bound to see our logic." Why? They havent saw much of your cash for a long, long time, they aren't missing out on much therefore, are they?. So for talking sake HMRC refuse the 10p, Rangers say fine liquidation it is, HMRC might lose out on £85m, they'll get flak for accepting a pittance back, they get flak for putting Rangers into liquidation, so it doesn't really matter, either way they'll get criticism. Alternately, they say to Rangers sure, knock yourself out, go into liquidation, miss out on Europe for three years, get whatever SPL punishments that merits. First thing to note is that this will show the comparitively rich clubs they are after in the EPL that they are not messing about, secondly, £84m is a pittance to HMRC, is the sanctions and no Europe for three years the same for Rangers? I very much doubt it. Only one party has the other over a barrel and I don't think their the ones worrying. Bear in mind this also, Rangers will be downsizing in a number of ways for the next few seasons, income slashed, PAYE slashed, so from HMRC's perspective you've went from someone potentially evading payments to someone who wont be making big payments. You're not holding many cards over them as I see it.

Agree0 Disagree0

HMRC because of the football creditors rule South of the border have always been a minority (less 25%) when it came to blocking a CVA.
This time they are in the driving seat!

Agree0 Disagree0

There are 10 million reasons why HMRC will agree to a CVA, show me an instance of HMRC insisting on liquidation that gets them nothing and loses the tax payer 10 million.

Of course they will do a deal.

Agree0 Disagree0

“As Telegraph Sport revealed previously – highly placed sources within HMRC have indicated that the tax authority will not oppose a Company Voluntary Agreement for Rangers provided that there is an ‘equitable’ settlement’ for creditors and that there is ‘regime change’ at Ibrox – namely, that Whyte is removed from the picture.
----------------------------------------

So much for HMRC NEVER agreeing to CVAs involving EBTs and football clubs.


They will do a deal.

NW.

Gaz, read it and weep:

Instead of slagging us sane tims read the facts scotslawthoughts.wordpress and am sure he,ll put ye right!Oh thats right he,s against you too?Aye i heard that somebody found a pot of gold under a rainbow too.lmao

Agree0 Disagree0

I had read that. At no point did I say they wont deal, I just said don't think for one second your bargain basement offer will be accepted. You're quoting a newspaper in your post, I could find you a ton of newspaper quotes saying no one from HMRC would make any comment on this until the actual amount is announced and even then they wont look kindly on the source of such discussions with D&P or anyone else leaking that in the meantime. I do admit there are tears in my eyes, I weep for the Rangers fans for grab any positive newspaper titbit as FACT. I wouldn't be surprised to find, pending the result of the BTC, that there is an arrangement whereby Rangers pay back a few million a year for who knows how long. The Telegraph may be onto something but how many errant pieces of journalism have been in print throughout this whole sorry saga? Last week Keith Jackson said it would be over and Rangers liquidated by Friday, didn't happen, I've said it before and I'll say it again, don't believe everything you read on this story, positive or negative.

Well done The Blue Knights.Hopefully now all Celtic fans can venture back on to their own boards....nothing to see here....move along...move along

Agree0 Disagree0

With less than half what CW purchased the club for. this is a sideshow, nothing can stop liquidation

Agree0 Disagree0

Agree mate ive heard they have nearly sorted cva.
craig+babybear

Agree0 Disagree0

Must be after something on eBay !

Agree0 Disagree0

NO,NO,NO,NO, how many times???????
The big tax case has not even been announced, no one knows the amount of debt, no one can make any pence in pound offer AND THEY COULDNT EVEN RAISE 500K!
Even if by some miracle they eventually got a cva(not a chance) the club will be back in administration within 2 years maximum.
Liquidation is the only way out and even that is now getting too late, we will not see a rangers team next season, of that i am now certain.
jimd(remember the name) and in a few weeks time think about this post.

I hope you are right. miller not the answer. watp

Agree0 Disagree0

Hope its true :)

Agree0 Disagree0

If Paul Murray or Brian Kennedy manage to save Rangers they will be remembered in the next 140 years. Even if things do not work out, I have to take my hat off to these guys for their dedication and perseverance.

Thank you.

It is now time to do the honourable thing Mr Whyte and walk away.

Agree0 Disagree0

If rangers get a cva does that mean nobody needs to pay taxes anymore ?

Thats the message that will be sent out from hmrc.

Agree0 Disagree0

Oh great a saviour has risen, a saviour that a week ago could not put together 500k, don't get ur hopes up,even if cva is agreed where is the finance to return squad to contracted salaries, not over yet guys, not by a long way. As the great Noel Gallagher recently said "dream on"

Agree0 Disagree0

Personally I hope this is true, the BK's appear to have this gers at heart, please let's get this sorted then hopeful get a bit of stability at the club! WATP!!

Agree0 Disagree0

OW a Celtic fan is getting annoyed, CVA can be agreed, the outcome is already known by both partys, SO A CVA CAN BE AGREED!!!

Agree0 Disagree0

And good luck to the guys. I just hope now that we dig deep and in these very troubled times that we are all going through that we can assist them and in the next couple of years get the Bears back onto an even keel. And lets be more humble , diligent and more importantly honerable to our fellow teams. Although a lot has been said about certain teams, lets not forget we will stand tall and proud again and act with dignity.

Agree0 Disagree0

You are kidding yourselves. 134 million remember

Agree0 Disagree0

TBK have nothing, not a groat, they'll borrow the 500k for deposit.
Paul Murray under the current SFA UEFA regs isn't a fit and proper person to be a football club office holder.
They cannot afford to pay off Whyte.

Agree0 Disagree0

I agree with last post.if my murray and mr kennedy fail at least they have tried to preserve our club

Agree0 Disagree0

To the no no no dude...is the glass always half empty..ya poor wee bitter soul...deecee

Agree0 Disagree0

D&P will not give it to anyone.
Both bids fall way short of the mark.
Liquidation looms.

Agree0 Disagree0

Live on rangers media ??

Yes I read that post NO SOURCE ??
Just trust the wee drunk guy in govan all alone in his bedsit !

When will you learn ?

Agree0 Disagree0

The Taxman will be your legend if you get a CVA ! Not the BK! Avoid millions of pounds of debt payments.....bet your proud of your club!

Agree0 Disagree0

It is very easy to sit at home and criticise the BK, but we need to get behind them and support them.
They possibily do not have lots of cash, but they are trying very hard too save our club from liquidation.

Agree0 Disagree0

There is nothing on rangers media

Agree0 Disagree0

Craig Whyte - A Rangers fan would never let his club go into liquidation, please handover your shares to the fans tomorrow. Money is not everything.

Agree0 Disagree0

Actually the 500k was not put up because of Ticketus, Blue knghts did not want to procced without there backing because then they would be a creditor, they could afford it, just you hope they could not

Agree0 Disagree0

Listen guys, how many more times do you need to be told, for goodness sake. HMRC appeal has not been heard and when it has they will do no deals whatsoever with us, let's stop building our hopes up only for it to be dashed. TBK are our saviours in the long term but even they will have to liquidate at some point and we can start again with the right team at the helm. Let's stop all this fantasising it's only giving the tommys further opportunity in which to gloat

Agree0 Disagree0

I don't understand how stupid some people are even with the blue knights we're finished none of them want to put up a deposit incase they lose it and even then they dont have enough money for 10p in the pound which wont matter because the cva will not be agreed.

Agree0 Disagree0

This is just like last May - remember the euphoria then?

Agree0 Disagree0

Yes a CVA can be agreed doesn't mean it will. HMRC refused Port Vale one not that long ago.

Agree0 Disagree0

Exactly. Even if - and that's IF - the Blue Knights get prefered bidder status that doesn't mean they have saved the club. Only that they get first shot at looking at the books and proposing a deal.

Those books should make interesting reading.

Agree0 Disagree0

Tut. I see the tic tax experts are in full flow. Imagine rangers did get out of this through a cva like many other British clubs in recent times? Can you imagine the rage amongst them. don't recall this outrage at non payment of taxes and debts to other clubs and small businesses when Portsmouth were in admin 2 years ago. It's the same frontline soldiers and NHS hospitals missing out. But of course this is much worse. It's rangers.

Agree0 Disagree0

Hmrc have never agreed a cva with a football club to date in uk, why would they agree with us ! too many people on here getting hyped up because bk's are gonna ger preferred status... wake up and smell the coffee its far from being all over !

Agree0 Disagree0

HMRC have never knocked back a CVA with a football club that resulted in liquidation and a 10 million loss.

CVAs are knocked back to avoid rewarding the owners or their associates for evading tax, this is not the case at RFC . The owners are neither being rewarded by a CVA or penalised in liquidation.

There is no point in liquidating Rangers if it only penalises the tax payer.

Agree0 Disagree0

“As Telegraph Sport revealed previously – highly placed sources within HMRC have indicated that the tax authority will not oppose a Company Voluntary Agreement for Rangers provided that there is an ‘equitable’ settlement’ for creditors and that there is ‘regime change’ at Ibrox – namely, that Whyte is removed from the picture.
----------------------------------------

It seems HMRC do deals after all.

Agree0 Disagree0

HMRC did oppose a cva at portsmouth but courts rejected it. HMRC did not appeal.

Talk on the bus from someone
on the inside is that D&P have
no experience of Admin for a football
team and they are learning but charging
pro prices.

The talk is "Black Monday"
will be the end game no matter how
many bids are on the table.

I propose we all head to Ibrox when
the news breaks...

Well i heard either on the phone ins or in person that this is there 1st big case & thats how its takingforever to come to a end ?

Months ago I would of said you was talking John White. But at the minute nothing would surprise me

Agree0 Disagree0

What someone in the inside of the bus?

Agree0 Disagree0

No inside his head!

Agree0 Disagree0

Only people at greyskull the morra will be the baillifs

Agree0 Disagree0

Why do you think mr whyte rushed and was so desperate to appoint these Admins? The clues are there fellow Bears, liquidation has been the plan all along, wouldn't surprise me if mr whyte was getting a "cut" of the Admin's fees, along with all the other cash he has squirreled out of the club and of this cash- no-one seems to know where it is!

Agree0 Disagree0

Rubbish, they are a respectable and good reputation IP company.

Agree0 Disagree0

Not everybody who works at the GLYNHILL hotel travels in a limousine

Agree0 Disagree0

Common knowledge that this is the first football club they have administered - so what? how many football clubs go into admin? its hardly a worthwhile speciality.

the law is the same for football clubs in scotland as it is for any other business. not really any specialist knowledge required other than get used to the emotive frustrations of fans who dont understand the process.

can understand fans frustration at the pace of the saga but blaming D&P is ridiculous and show ignorance of the complications involved, expect the pace to pick up if/when a preffered bidder is in place, but nothing substantial until into the close season, theres a long way to go in this process but the important thing is to get it right for our club.

Agree0 Disagree0

The number of conspiracy threads complaining about the perfomance level of the administrators is truly baffling. I can only put it down to some bizarre blame game syndrome.
Can we be clear here, it is not the administrators fault Rangers are insolvent, it is not their fault no bidder has put in an unconditional offer and its not their fault a CVA can not be formalised until after the BTC.

If someone would like to tell me how they have messed up then fire away.

NW.

Agree0 Disagree0

There are insolvency practitioners experienced in football. Who was the guy who did Dundee and Morherwell.

Agree0 Disagree0

To the idiot who said the bailiffs will be at grey skull tomorrow! No such thing in Scotland laughing boy! Rememember it's tainted when we beat you's next week! Lol

Agree0 Disagree0

With respect to those clubs rangers are a far bigger institution, and unfortunetly face a far more complex set of circumstances.

dundee's debts were less than 2m and a cva was agreed for 6p in the pound with hmrc having a minority say in proceedings, the rangers case is infinitely more complicated and required premier league standard administrators, D&P are that.

Agree0 Disagree0

The guys who handled other scottish clubs,Dundee,Motherwell etc,made it clear they wanted nothing to do with RFC administration.No company in Scotland would touch us.Nimmo,Jackson etc,suffered personal threats dealing with these smaller clubs.Rfc would raise the personal threat level to them.You,as a decent RFC fan might disagree but read what Mr Leggat as published this morning:
To paraphrase-I'm posting the Addresses,telephone numbers and E-Mails of every partner world wide of Duff & Phelps,or you can just drop into the Glynhill Hotel,Renfrew where clark,Whitehouse and the rest of the Duff & phelps gang are holed up when they're up here.
Puts us in a good light,eh.
