    Due to a technicality, it's unclear whether Rangers actually ever entered administration.

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-17373292

    A hearing is to be held at the Court of Session in Edinburgh on Monday to settle the issue.

    If it's found that Rangers were never in administration, this would mean the reinstatement of the 10 points Rangers were docked for the 'offence'.

    Typical Rangers - a "tainted" administration

    According to a statement just released by the SPL, Rangers will be deducted another 10 points on Monday for going into administration.

    Looks like Whytey's done it again. He's always one step ahead.

    It is ****ing brilliant.

    It'd be a crying shame if the monkeys get hit with a winding up petition before monday.

    Sweet if that came true - the huns single stick (or straw should I say) to beat us was the 'tainted title', I wouldn't mind beating them the old fashioned no-points-deducted way.

    Canny even go into administration correctly!


    So:

    If not in admin, is Whytey still the owner?

    If not in admin, why all the wage cuts?

    It is hard to understand quite how a company who specialise in administration and a " billionaire " ( who essentially appointed said company ) and has made his vast personal - off the radar - wealth from administrating/liquidating/asset striping ailing businesses could simply " forget " to notify the Financial Services Authority when this is an integral part in the process of moving into administration and something they must be used to doing quite regularly.

    The intention was to go into admin.

    D&P are Whyteys choice. He is still and will remain 80% at the helm.

    They'll finally make it to admin on monday unless something hilarious happens in the meantime.

    This pair from Duff & Phelps, Paul Clark and David Whitehouse, are turning out to be a pair of bumbling idiots, the Laurel and Hardy of administrators.

    I can see why Craig Whyte was so desperate to appoint them.

    It is ridiculous though. First thing they try to do whilst in 'administration' is try to sign Cousin on 7.5k per week. Then they hold a press conference where they say they're confident they'll be out of admin before the end of March and will be in Europe next season. Next they bottle out of making any decisions about staff being axed and pass the responsibility to the players instead.

    Now we find out they didn't even instruct the FSA that the club in in administration!.

    And these dicks are earning thousands of pounds per day out of Rangers <laugh>
