Reason for the Easedale loan

quote:

Rangers' latest crisis loan was taken to avoid being wound up by HM Revenue and Customs, BBC Scotland has learned.
It is understood the Scottish Championship club received a seven-day notice letter at the end of December for the payment of national insurance.
Rangers announced on Monday that Sandy Easdale had given a loan of £500,000.
The shareholder and chairman of the football board's money would be used for general working capital over the next few days.

Who wouldn't want to buy one of the most storied franchises in soccer? The Rangers are Scotlands best candidate to join the Barclays BPL eventually (Celtic with its Penn St. like connotations and violent/racist fans is not an ideal candidate for a globally branded league)

They told him to to get tae anyway

quote:

The Board of Rangers has considered the possible offer from Robert Sarver (or a vehicle to be established and controlled by him) ("Mr Sarver").

The proposal by Mr Sarver comprises a placing of 100 million shares at 18p ("Placing") which, if approved by shareholders at a general meeting, would be immediately followed by an unconditional offer at 18p pursuant to Rule 9 of the Code. The Placing would give Mr Sarver control of Rangers.

While the Directors welcome Mr Sarver's approach, they believe that, notwithstanding the current financial difficulties, the proposal does not adequately value a controlling interest in the Company and accordingly the resolution to approve the placing is unlikely to achieve the 75% majority required. The Directors do not intend to hold the General Meeting which would be necessary to implement the proposal.

The Company is managing its cash resources carefully and will require further funding before the end of January. The Directors are in discussions with Rangers' significant stakeholders with a view to arranging finance for the Club. This is likely to comprise loans in the short term and possibly equity in the medium term. The board has invited Mr Sarver to consider participating in a similar discussion alongside other supportive shareholders.

Is that not the "first team" wages figure that only accounts for 20 players which was put out to try and make it look like they weren't overspending ? First team wages / turnover is meaningless , even if you only included the players and coaching staff they'd still be over 50% wages / turnover

I watch them on the tele and go to the big games like Inter Milan, Legia Warsaw and Hamilton, I'll have you know. My usual seat is the curve on the second 'C' on that big flag Celtic use to keep the seats protected & dry during the boring games.

A meltdown for not knowing who some troll on the football forums of SA is? Sorry, my man. Will check my encyclopedia next time.

Breaking news edit: Alex Neil to Norwich?
Wonder where that'll leave Hamilton for the rest of the season.

Chimping around, kick my brains round the floor
These are the days - it never rains but it pours
It's May 2008 on a Saturday at about 1:45pm. I am sitting in the Accies Vaults pub. Hamilton Accies play Clyde in the 2nd last game of the season knowing that a win will guarantee promotion to the top tier of Scottish football for the first time in my life. The stadium round the corner holds 5000 people, although has never really been more than half full. Radio Scotland is the background noise in the pub, with the TV showing Sky Sports News. My friend and I plan to have one more drink before going round the corner to pay at the gate. Richard Gordon on the radio is interviewing Hamilton club secretary Scott Struthers, who informs listeners that they expect a sell out and if the fans keep coming in at this rate, the ground will be full by 2pm. We leave most of our pints and run round the corner.

Upon entering the stadium, we find seats. My friend is at the end of a row in the main stand near the halfway line. I am in the next seat inwards to his right. I notice something about the person sitting next to me. It is not the usual old man smelling of beer and urine and fags and somehow more urine. It is a girl in her early twenties. She has long blonde hair and is physically attractive. She is on her own. This is not a usual sight at a Hamilton Accies match.

There's a lot of excitement in the stands. Promotion was unthinkable just 8 years ago when we found ourselves in the bottom tier of Scottish football and about to go out of business with no money, stadium or chairman. My friend smiles at me, nodding in the direction of the young lady to my right. I make face. It is a face that acknowledges I am seated next to a girl.

The match begins. The girl is enthusiastic. She shouts the players names and encourages Accies in the way that I would do so myself. She is around my age, physically attractive, knowledgeable about football and knowledgeable about my small obscure football team. I am pleased with how the situation is panning out, and begin to look forward to our first embrace when the goals flow. Maybe we exchange a smile when it's 1-0. A celebratory hug at full time. A quick drink after the game to celebrate. A passionate embrace outside Mecca Bingo near the train station. Numbers are exchanged. A relationship forms. Season tickets are bought together. A child called Jose Quitongo is born. A love lasts eternal.

Hamilton win 2-0 and are promoted. The girl is ecstatic, jumping for joy and joining in the celebrations with me, my friend and others around. The captain Alex Neil, one of my favourite players and one of the main reasons we are going up, jumps into the stands at full time. He runs up the stairs. He is pumping his fists in celebration. That's when I realise it. He's running towards me. I shout "ALEX!" and pump my fist in conjunction with his. Other fans try to grab him and hug him, but he pushes them off. He has a huge smile on his face and he's rushing towards me. He's now just a few feet away and I prepare to grab him in a manly show of affection. I don't think my life can get any better. My football team is promoted, I've met a great attractive girl and the club captain has singled me out of a crowd of 5000 people to come and celebrate with. I extend my arm out around his shoulder.

He pushes me off.

I am shoved out of the way for Alex Neil to get close to the girl beside me, his girlfriend at the time who is now his wife. They kiss next to me. Neil then leads her by the hand down the stairs onto the pitch where they celebrate together. She gets to hold the cup. The other players and their wives/partners are delighted to see her. I am left alone, and now the face is being made by my friend.

gently caress you Alex "Cockblock" Neil and your slutty teasing whore of a girlfriend/wife, I hate you so much and I am glad you have left my country and I hope that Norwich get relegated and Kyle Lafferty has sex with your missus and you get fired and live in poverty forever.
