hellbhoy Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 In an interview with Jim White on Sky Sports News HQ, King said: “Myself and my co-investors have agreed to invest any shortfall that the club has while it’s rebuilding itself and we have done that.” ....but but Davy ders nae MEKANISUHMMMM tae invest! King has publicly stated that the fans were co-investors in the club, nice bit of spin from the glib telling the fans they will have to pay up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Blackmail this time! Spend money or Celtic will remain No.1 (though Rangers fans had been No.1 spenders for the previous 100 years apparently). Dig deep berzz...or else... http://www.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/9921177/king-the-fans-need-to-back-the-club For me, more stunning than anything King says, is the nauseating sycophantic nature of White's approach. It's an example of the worst type of succulent journalism, complete with visit to the wine cellar. Jim White is resolutely back in "Brian, why are you so good?" territory and it's really quite embarrassing to watch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Succulent journalisim, isn't that one of Philip mackagoolingtons favourite sayings? The guy who who gets his stories from media house.... It might well be, but the point surely still stands that the forelock tugging nature of the feature is cringe inducing. Or would you disagree? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennett Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 I haven't watched it but Jim whites interview all tend to be sugary and tabloidy, no matter who he's interviewing. I refuse to get worked up by it, I'll leave that to others. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nsr Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Bennett, you really are a master of refusing to address difficult questions. It must be every spiv's dream to own a club whose supporters wilfully turn a blind eye to any bad news whatsoever. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellbhoy Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 I hate to bring the thread back on topic but I do wonder why it is taking so long for the HMRC appeal at the court of session ? Getting bad news before Saturday would be stupendous and then there's the other result they will gloat on about for ages. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiddy Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 DAVE KING on Sky sports insisting the fans must buy more and spend more to take the club forward as it wont matter how much the investors put in the fans are the main stay of the club, Dig Deep Gers fans!Wallets, ready! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insaintee Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 King has publicly stated that the fans were co-investors in the club, nice bit of spin from the glib telling the fans they will have to pay up. Don't you get a financial return on investment? Fans are customers not investers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Flash Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 I hate to bring the thread back on topic but I do wonder why it is taking so long for the HMRC appeal at the court of session ? Getting bad news before Saturday would be stupendous and then there's the other result they will gloat on about for ages. The UTT hearing finished on 7 March 2014 and the decision was released on 8 July 2014, so it could be a while yet before the Court of Session outcome is known. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't you mean the company that owns and operates the club? Noticed Jim White asked if King was going to give money to the club too. Must have been a slip of the tongue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE KING Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 The fact that King is now begging fans to buy SD merch tells us that King has done some sort of deal with MA 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
