2-2 draw away to well established club Peterhead.

Decent result, but The Rangers were forced to play in old training gear bought from the now defunct Rangers club.

Huge crowd for the newco rankers, just over 4,000.

I thought this shower could have been the first team in Scottish footballing history to win every league game, thankfully it took them exactly one game to screw that possibility up.

What is the Captain of the US mens national team still doing there????

I still think they will promoted quite easily but it is exciting to think that they will struggle to get out of even this division and right now Linfield would probably beat them more times than not, oh how the mighty have fallen!

Hawick Royal Albert v The Rangers
Friendly to-day against an E.O.S.L. team. And a lowly team with it.

Another big win for The Rangers 0-1 away to a team two divisions higher than them. Andy Little on target again, six goals already, making him the highest scorer in the club's history. Surely himself and Deano Shiels are capable of playing at a higher level though.

Biggest attendance anywhere in Scotland again tonight.

Will be interesting when The Rangers enter the Scottish Cup at the second round stage. They might be drew against some team who play on a roped off council park. That will be an eye opener.  :)

OK, maybe i read it wrong.

I took it as he meant they didn't behave as the usual scumbags that they are.

I have no love for Rangers, but they do have a history of fans dying at a game.

I would think because of this, the fans would pay respects.

Of course, Jez  though, i know Rangers lost alot of players. But they are playing in the Scottish Third Division. Alot of these clubs have sheds for stands and have real shoe string budgets. Rangers will of course get promoted, just it does not look like the walk in the Park they (we) expected!

Every time I think they have hit rock bottom they find a way to go even lower, that said I cannot see them not being promoted out of this league but it is an astonishing fall for the new rankers.

I think they would struggle to find a replacement. Who would take that on?

McCoist has them 21 points ahead in the league and is about to get promoted, he is going nowhere, they are loyal to him, and they should be as he was a great player for them and took a huge paycut to help them when shite hit fan!

I think however he is a dose, as benny pointed out he lost a 15 point lead in next to no time despite all the bungs and nefarious shite they were up to, he is more hapless than hopeless and I for one hope he is there for the next 20 years!

The gist of this is Green was Whyte's frontman to buy back the assets of TRFC without the debt. Green stiffed Whyte and now it's payback time. Collaterall damage will be any team playing at Ibrox for the next Millenium and probably scottish football as a whole.

BDO, the liquidators of the first incarnation, should be able to seize the assets and sell them off for the benefit of the creditors of Mark 1, Creditors of Mark 2 (of which there are many) will have to sing for their money.

I see Newco Rankers  have hit a new low already with yer man Green who runs them made racist remarks whilst attending a "Kick Racism out of Soccer" function.

The SFA are all over it but feck me, this new club are shaping up to be as bad as that team Glasgow Rankers were back when they were kind of a big deal in the Scottish prem before folding in disgrace.

RNS Number: 5415C

Worthington Group Plc

17th April 2013

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Worthington Group Plc

Worthington Group Plc (the "Company") - Diversification



The Company has been looking at ways to diversify the Company's activities in order to develop additional growth opportunities. It currently has a property in Keighley and a 44% stake in Trimmings by Design Ltd. Whilst these interests have the potential to deliver reasonable medium term growth the Company has been looking at other potential investments which may yield above average growth.



The Company is now pleased to announce that, as the first step in the possible acquisition of Law Financial Ltd ("LFL"), it has agreed to acquire a 26% stake in LFL for £250,000 payable in unsecured convertible loan notes.  The Company has also been granted an option to acquire the remaining share capital of LFL. The full acquisition would be subject to shareholder approval and compliance with any applicable Listing Rules.



LFL, a recently incorporated company, has a number of subsidiaries, namely Sevco 5088 Ltd, Law Capital Ltd, Litigation Capital Ltd and Media Litigation Ltd (LFL and its subsidiaries hereafter being referred to as the Law Financial Group). The eventual aggregate purchase price for 100% of LFL will be £1m in unsecured convertible loan notes plus 33.33% of the proceeds of any assets, claims or rights currently owned by LFG or transferred to LFG or Worthington pursuant to the agreement payable in non-convertible unsecured loan notes which may be redeemed for cash at the option of the holder at any time after six months of issue. The Company's option to acquire the balance of the share capital of LFL is exercisable until October 31st 2013.



The assets of Sevco 5088 Ltd include a claim, which has been independently reviewed by Leading Counsel who is also a Deputy High Court Judge, to all of the business and assets of RFC 2012 Plc which were purchased by Sevco 5088 Limited or Sevco Scotland Ltd from the administrators of RFC 2012 plc in June of 2012. Sevco Scotland Ltd was subsequently renamed The Rangers Football Club Limited and its share capital was acquired by Rangers International Football Club Plc, the shares of which are now traded on AIM. It is the position of Sevco 5088 Ltd that it is the rightful owner of the business and those assets. After examination of the evidence, Leading Counsel's advice is that there is a prima facie case to answer.   



It has also been agreed that, pursuant to the agreement certain other related rights, assets and causes of action will be transferred to the Law Financial Group or directly to Worthington. Those assets include the Book, Film and Television rights to the two takeovers of The Rangers Football Club in 2011 and 2012 as it relates to Craig Whyte. It is intended that these rights will be commercialised in due course.

It is LFL's intention to enter the litigation funding and litigation funding broking markets.  Litigation funding is a growing sector of the commercial litigation market and the Company is of the view that, in the years to come, the demand for litigation funding within the corporate sector can only increase.



The unsecured convertible loan notes issued as part of the consideration will only be convertible to the extent that the holder or those acting in concert do not exceed 29.9% of the voting capital of the Company.



The unsecured convertible loan notes will give the holder the right, at any time within 7 years, to convert each £1 of those loan notes into 20 new Ordinary fully paid shares in the Company, subject to shareholder approval. The Company will endeavour to obtain this approval within twelve months of the date of issue. If approval is not obtained within twelve months, then the holders may elect to be repaid in cash, or convert each £1 of the loan notes into 10 new Ordinary fully paid shares in the Company.



Douglas Ware, Chief Executive Officer of Worthington Group Plc, said:



"We believe that the transaction contemplated by this announcement gives the Company a major opportunity to increase shareholder value and thus to strengthen the Company's balance sheet, enabling the Company to look at additional opportunities as they arise."

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Worthington Group Plc (the "Company") - Conditional Fee Agreement


Conditional Fee Agreement

The Company is pleased to announce that Law Financial Ltd ("Law Financial"), its 26% owned associate, has now entered into a Conditional Fee Agreement in relation to claims that Law Financial, through its subsidiary Sevco 5088 Ltd and separately, has to all of the business and assets of The Rangers Football Club ("Rangers") which were purchased from the Administrators of RFC 2012 Plc by Sevco 5088 Limited, or Sevco Scotland Ltd, in June of 2012.

The principle terms of the Conditional Fee Agreement are as follows:

Solicitors and Leading Counsel acting for Law Financial will share 7.5% of the recently issued and to be issued unsecured convertible loan stock and up to 18.5% of any successful claim in relation to the business and assets of Rangers.

The Company notes the announcement made on 22 April 2013 by Rangers International Football Club Plc ("RIFC") in which, contrary to other recent public announcements and statements by Mr Green and RIFC, RIFC now, five months after the publication of the Admission Document published for its flotation, claim to own Sevco 5088 Ltd.

We also note today's announcement by RIFC, and would like to confirm that solicitors, acting for the Company and Law Financial, are in a position to provide compelling evidence that Messrs Green and Ahmad received a letter before claim in December 2012, having received previous correspondence, and chose to ignore it.

In the light of recent public admissions by Mr Green, including his admission that he and Mr Ahmad deceived Mr Whyte, a fresh letter before claim is being prepared against, inter alios, The Rangers Football Club Ltd and Messrs Green and Ahmad. This letter will include additional or alternative causes of action to those already particularised in the December 2012 letter.

The shares in RIFC purportedly owned by Messrs Green and Ahmad will also be the subject of this claim.

During the course of the Company's due diligence process, relating to its purchase of a stake in Law Financial, information has been discovered relating to the conduct of Mr Charles Green and Mr Imran Ahmad, this has today been reported to the Serious Fraud Office.
