Rangers one step closer to liquidation today as their CVA proposal has been rejected.

 

[neoanarch]

What are the odds they get kicked out of the 1st division? After they got that trade embargo overruled, I'd be surprised if the SFA didn't come back with that punishment.

Reckon they will push ahead in the second half.

Australia's chances have largely been "AAAH what the fuck is going on" affairs.

Japan just haven't put in that composed last touch.

Do they have Havenaar he seems big and clinical.

 

[Carbonox]

This is what he'll do if they make it to the knockout stage:

First thing that came to mind is a combiner from Transformers. Someone needs to add the transformation sound to the source video of this.

The SPL teams are voting on whether to allow them to remain in the league or not soon I think.

 

[dc89]

Rangers are done for.

Can you have a league with one team in it?

Also:

I laughed for about a minute

This bit from his pre-tournament preview still makes me laugh when I read it:

Scorer of the winning goal that day was Fernando Torres, who at the time was arguably the finest number 9 (real, not false) in the world. he has since literally become a wolf in cheap clothing, and his painful slide into a Bolivian has been well documented.

 

[Carbonox]

Hmm, Newcastle's bid for Anita of Ajax has been turned down. Reportedly 4m. Wonder if we return with a higher offer. Going by what Dutch GAF says, he's good enough to warrant a higher offer.

 

[K1LLER7]

wow soft red

 

[Salazar]

That sucks.

Ref forgot the red, lol. Or was embarrassed to be showing it.

 

[GorillaJu]

I'm on the train and won't get home in time to watch. Who got a red?

Mark Milligan. Accidental kick in a flying Japanese bloke's chest. Not reckless, not a foul.

Harsh.

Apparently the CVA was structured in such a way that HMRC had to reject it.

 

[Salazar]

Like when Suarez kicked Parker.

Oh wait.

You said it. Hurraaaaay

 

[elseanio]

Anyone who's been to Old Trafford: Is it worth using a park-and-ride for £10, or will I be able to find a street nearby (walking distance). It's for the Olympics next month, will need to be there from 3pm-~11pm

Martin Lipton has just made a tit of himself.

Martin Lipton
Arsenal signing of Yann M'Vila effectively confirmed by statement from Rennes on French Stock Exchange. So that's Podolski, M'Vila and Giroud, all heading for the Emirates. If anything can persuade Robin Van Persie to stay at the club, surely these statements of intent will. Three big and important signings, which will surely please Arsene Wenger and the Arsenal fans. Major contrast to last summer when it was all about exits. Onus now on RVP to clarify his position

There is no French Stock Exchange.

Top quality reporting, Martin.

 

[Salazar]

Nice goal. Composed stuff from Honda.

 

[Tim the Wiz]

Feel for Schwarzer. That defence is dumb as a pile of bricks. Some horrible clearances and awareness.

And goal. Inevitable.

 

[GorillaJu]

Nice goal. Composed stuff from Honda.

Nice. Honda has been on point lately.

 

[K1LLER7]

nice goal, Honda pass so good.

 

[Sloosha]

Shit, Ki Sung-Yeung off injured already.

Oh god, Lebanon nearly scored

 

[flake]

Rubbish ref has ruined this game

 

[Tim the Wiz]

Sign him up, Fergie. Honda, that is. /muppet

There is no French Stock Exchange.

Top quality reporting, Martin.

:lol

 

[GorillaJu]

Oh Honda's assist? Who scored, Okazaki?

 

[Salazar]

Martin Lipton has just made a tit of himself.

And continues to do so.

Needs to choose: muppet or journalist, muppet or journalist.

Oh god, penalty. What ?? Garbage.

 

[flake]

Get in!!! Australia equalise

 

[GorillaJu]

Oh it was Kurihara?! Must have been a set piece then?

Fuck! Improve your live commentary you mugs!! I've still got 8 more minutes on the train!'

Equalized? Fuck!!

 

[BlindCommunication]

That penalty decision was ridiculous. What an injustice, no wonder the Japanese players were baffled.

 

[K1LLER7]

good pen, loving this ref

 

[Salazar]

Oh it was Kurihara?! Must have been a set piece then?

Honda skipped along the line almost to the post and clipped a pass along the ground - Schwarzer and a Japanese player missed it, and Kurihara was at the far post.

 

[GorillaJu]

You guys suck. I'm getting off at the next stop and finding a bar to watch this.

 

[dc89]

Apparently the CVA was structured in such a way that HMRC had to reject it.

A guy on TalkSPORT who understood the whole situation was saying that Rangers offer was to pay 8-10p in the pound of the debt. Why the hell should HMRC accept that?

If I don't pay my income tax I face the law.

Also it's the belief that if Rangers don't exist anymore the players are allowed to leave for free.

The other SPL Chairman are apparently not willing to back the SPL and keep Rangers in the top flight. They will have to start in Division 3. But the guy was saying some Chairman may allow Rangers to stay in the top flight but only if they let go of their stranglehold over the Scottish FA. He was saying the Old Firm have way too much influence.

Brilliant.

Probably trying to make up for the terrible decision to send off Milligan.

Japanese defender should have got a second yellow for that deliberate handball

Samurai would never hand ball deliberately! Cut your white devilish lies, white devil.

GOOOOAAAAAAALLL!!!!! Kim Bo-Kyung!

 

[LegoArmo]

Rangers should be kicked out of the Scottish league sytem, and have the titles they won with illegal money stripped from them.

I have been once, took my bro to Neville's testimonial.

We went in the car and parked at the stadium itself an got the tickets from the box office. So I have no idea of park and ride systems.

All I'd say is driving round there is confusing as hell because it's one way close to the stadium and getting out was time consuming cause it was busy.

So yeah, a park and ride system does sound good.

 

[flake]

Off the post! Dat Aussie spirit

 

[Tim the Wiz]

Ha. Imagine if we actually win this.

 

[GorillaJu]

They should do the same with Real Madrid.

Where To Park
There are lots of small private car parks near to the ground, otherwise it is street parking. Peter Bennett suggests parking at Old Trafford Cricket Ground (cost £10). Try to arrive early (before 1pm) as if you arrive later, it takes ages leaving the car park after the game. Gareth Hawker adds; 'I parked at the Salford Quays Lowry Mall, a ten minute walk away from the stadium, the cost of which was £3.50. There was virtually no traffic on leaving, and the road takes you straight onto the M601 which joins up with the M62/M6. This avoids the congestion of the traffic heading South'. This car park also offers free parking for four hours if you spend £5 or more in the shopping centre and then get a store to validate your receipt/car parking ticket). There is also the MediaCityUK Multi Storey Car Park located at Salford Quays, it has 2,300 spaces and is only a ten minute walk from Old Trafford (see more details below).

kagawa should've scored there, free header.

Just caught the game right when Australia got awarded their pen so can't comment on that. Fine effort from Australia, hit the crossbar. Japan losing their organization behind. Bad miss from Maeda there.

 

[LegoArmo]

They should do the same with Real Madrid.

What's the situation there?

 

[GorillaJu]

What's the situation there?

Both they and Barcelona are in hundreds of millions of pounds of debt with the Spanish government.

 

[LegoArmo]

Both they and Barcelona are in hundreds of millions of pounds of debt with the Spanish government.

Aren't they loans they were given rather than them avoiding paying tax for decades though?

 

[neoanarch]

Both they and Barcelona are in hundreds of millions of pounds of debt with the Spanish government.

Real Madrid has no debt.

editops spoke to soon. What happened to Real having no debt. dodgy financing.

 

[dc89]

So Nasri's finger on lips after scoring yesterday was aimed at the French press. Anyone know why?
