That was pretty interesting, thanks. I’ve always quite liked David Murray (for no particularly discernible reason), but I’m not sure I’ve ever seen him looking so awkward. He could barely stay still in his chair and his hands were quite often up by his mouth/face - which most body language boffins apparently recognise as a sign of vivid internal discomfort and/or a masking mechanism on the road to dishonesty. He seemed briefly more confident when talking about Hugh Adam and dual contracts, however, so who knows? I've no idea what will happen - although it's amazing to see how many people are suddenly tax experts and seem able to spout off about these things with such certainty - but it appears likely to be messy and convoluted, either way.
The Channel 4 Timmy Hatchet job is going to be on the news tomorrow Trev, you heard anything about the club deck Huns getting bumped?
Murray's arse must be twitching if he's calling in the press to "give his side" of the story. Murray operated the EBT scheme, Murray sold off all Rangers assets bar the Stadium, Auchenhowie and the Car Park, Murray allowed Advocaat to spend nearly £100m on players, and MOST damning of all, Murray sold the club to the shyster where even the simplest of Internet checks would've shown the Whyte had been in charge of around 50 failed enterprises. When Murray took over Rangers, we were probably the biggest club in Britain, we had one of the best stadiums, we'd near invented the corporate sponsorship side of the game, we were buying the best players in Britain and turning a profit. Murray got in and his ego fked it all up. He thought he was invincible, and when we lost 10IAR, like a bully he thought to himself "I'll teach them". Fast forward 15 years and the club is on life support and he's calling in favours from journos trying to fire off the opening salvos in what is sure to degenerate into a war of words as Murray tries to cover his arse and save his legacy in the face of ever mounting criticism. He's single handedly the most destructive force that Rangers have ever encountered. A Tims dream.
Yet Mark Hateley last night on radio was still singing the praises of Murray , he left them debt free !!!!!!!why is clown allowed an opinion
To be fair to murray about the google thing (I know that's not the only research you should be doing before selling a ****ing football club to someone) Whyte payed a company to wipe all his previous dealings from google searches. Rebel I dont know what the club deck thing is you mean? Harry shut up forever
Murray must have business contacts all over the world and even more so in Scotland. Whyte's Scottish. I find it hard to believe that Murray had not heard of of Whyte and his dodgy business history.
I heard that those who paid for debentures, (basically a comfy seat with their name on and a nice couple of pints before games) have been told their debentures are now worthless. The debenture should have been a long standing guarantee for tickets and ****... But it is now gone. If true, that makes them creditors to the tune of something like £7m. I dont know if it is true or not, which is why I am asking. The google thing is bollocks. Whytey was well sussed the moment he came on the scene. There was loads on the web about him. Murray just didn't do what he was supposed to and Lloyds were never going to get an easier out than that.
the comfy seats are the middle tier. club deck is up in the heavens but I know what seats you mean. I've not heard anything about that. nothing would surprise me though
SDM keeps saying the EBTs were "Discretionary", the point is that EBTs are not supposed to be at the discretion of the players but at the discretion of the Trustees, that was never the case.
Murray took advice from a respected taxidermist and now rangers are stuffed. No need, I`ll get my own jacket thank you.
**** me it's the lesser spotted DevAdvocate! Where have you been cant even be arsed slagging you about the killie disaster now. get it up ye anyway
