    Do you bears think that the current financial situation that you find yourself in has been blown out of proportion by us Celtic fans or do you think that the media have not advertised the fact your are in trouble, or is it a bit of both?

    I remember at one stage the NOTW saying that we could end up having to pay £91m plus interest which could come to a figure of £150m. Most people laughed this off but then there were quite a few people that sucked this in.

    What I don't get is some Celtic fan creating a website called rangerstaxcase.com (I think) and spending money hosting it and countless hours updating it with info.

    So all Ayrshiremen are filled with hate?

    Explains a lot

    Poor wives, if they're not being beaten they are being shunned for an unbroken sheep

    I've seen no evidence to suggest that the guy is a Celtic fan, maybe he's a concerned Rangers fan?

    One of the stories he put up before came from the perspective of a Celtic fan. Do you really believe it is a Rangers fan going to all that trouble to talk about how his club could be hit with a huge tax bill?

    Must also be a coincidence that one of McGillivans twitter followers and Facebook friend is an HMRC employee. A lot of the fans have already rumbled this fella.

    The Rangers Tax case is certainly intriguing, but whether it comes to anything is another matter.

    Here's hoping it doesn't.

    The thing that confuses me is this non-payment of tax, if 5 guys work for me and I don't deduct tax from them, then it's up to them to Pay it, not me.

    Why would footballers be any different?

    Did Alastair Johnston and a few others on the old Rangers board not voice their concerns on the Tax issues?

    I honestly don't know who the guy is or what team he supports and i'm not at the WUM either but he could be a Gers fan, it's not beyond the realms of possibilty but i'll admit that it is unlikely.

    It wasn't a loophole

    It was a scheme used to pay loans that was instead used to pay wages

    As the "loans" were not paid back they should have been taxed

    Players had letters promising that the loans were not to be repaid

    HMRC have copies

    That's my understanding

    Mine too.

    The problem apparently arose when someone at Rangers actually admitted that they were using the scheme to pay wages. If they had kept quiet it would not have been an issue.

    The man behind the scheme was apparently Campbell Ogilvie.
