sjc Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Why is it Rangers fans seem to favour King &/or the "3 bears" so much? Have they actually outlined how they'd run the Club financially if they got control? King mentioned £50m but wasn't to be raised via the fans? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't densboy claim that they had spent most of their money buying shares? You make allowances, every support has it's share of imbeciles .. some have a majority share however.Aye that's the Celtic support for ye.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AberdeenBud Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) Newcastle are surely in an infinitely better position on and off the pitch compared to when he took over, no? I know the Geordies don't like him but their fans are almost as myopic and deranged as Rangers fans, present company excepted of course.

flyingrodent Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 A proper circular firing squad going on over Ibrox way yet again, it seems. You can only imagine how hilarious this will get if Hearts pump them 4-0 tomorrow night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~~~ Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Ashley has never spoken to the fans at any stage. Ashley clearly has no interest in the club, only the company, so why would he talk with the fans? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjc Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) Yet they are £130M in debt.That's to MA......They owed the bank that previously.Rangers (& Celtic for that matter) fans need to realise that gone are the days of buying ready made star players. Even Celtic's recent transfer policy of buying young foreign players with potential has changed as even that market is saturated by better paying smaller Clubs from bigger leagues. Probably also worth bearing in mind that when playing youngster that come through the ranks that you as fans (and the Clubs management) need to be patient as they won't be the finished article and need to play to develop. Unless of course King et al are promising the land of milk and honey again then crack on.... Edited January 15, 2015 by sjc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strichener Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Could not really give two fucks about Newcastle, no offence. MA has bullied his way into a Scottish club breaking rules as he goes.

Henrik's tongue Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Funny aint it, King is breaking SFA rules, has no interest in Scottish Football or Rangers and the P & Bers seem delighted that he is trying to gain control of a Scottish club When 3 untainted successful businessmen who are interested in doing what is best for a Scottish club, who have not broke any rules, come along with a better deal, the same P & Bers are at best pessimistic, with one of them already smearing them as liars? How is Dave King untainted? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjc Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 What is all this guff? some kind of deflection? Nobody is speaking about celtic`s transfer policy or star players. Ok Tedi.....ignore whatever you will. Answer me this though: why are you so trusting of King or the 3 bears? Is it just because they're not MA? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laying on a bit thick there tbh. I don't see anyone delighted purely at Ashley's involvement. No doubt there's a sense of schadenfreude at the fans not getting what they want, but that's to be expected with anything concerning Rangers tbh. What if King is working on concert with T3B, would moral issues still be at play then? Certainly wouldn't be "untainted". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K Dodd Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 No idea, can it be withdrawn? This was not a definite just stopped anyone else from applying...they could of course take a smaller loan now to tide them through the 35 days before granting security in time for getting the larger loan. Lots of ways to do this, they have not committed to anything and are duty bound to accept the best option. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Podlie Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 One part is happy to be paid back via equity. Which may be good enough reason for it to be rejected as not in existing shareholders best interests.

dave.j Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 I like the 3 bears trick, it's an old one that king used before. Basically making an offer they know can never be accepted by the company. Previously king did it requesting security over Ibrox(?) knowing full well the company couldn't accept it as there was a claim in place from Whyte over the ownership of the stadium. Now the three bears want security over Murray Park, knowing the board can't offer it as there's a 35 day lock down in place. It makes for great pantomime and the press love a rangers minded money man to write about, but really their offer has as much clout as me making one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
