On our way back Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I don't know if I can handle this new restrained and diplomatic version of Hellbhoy. Tell it like it is son. he's a complete cock. Thus place was better without him 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
On our way back Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Dangerous Dave must be absolutely shiting it now, it looks like he might have to put serious cash in rather than just talk about it.he won't, but. He'll put other folks's money in but not his own. I don't trust him at all. We're better off with Wallace . At least he tells the truth and is a bit more transparent despite the losses the decline is easing up a bit in my opinion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember he said there was no cash flow problem and Rangers did not need a cash injection...that truth? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 , did you expect anything less you plonker ?, as for sensible ? Tedi ? So why the return numbnut ?, any excuse was it to partake in some mudslinging towards anyone who is not of the blue persuasion and the King is returning and you can envision ra mighty Gers bulldozing all opposition into a pulp ?. Christ almighty Hellbhoy. Give it a rest. It's actually been alright having Ted back on here. As you may see, there's been some semblance of discussion in places. Then you come along with your latest brand of tiresome, unpleasant pish. Cut it out. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Re the UoF statement, it ends with a reference to "Dave King' s offer of £30m". Has there ever really been such a thing though? He's talked of such sums being necessary, he's even said he'd be willing to plough money in for no return. I'm not sure that anything he's said amounts to a firm offer though and even if it did, would you believe him? FWIW, I can actually see the logic in attempting to withhold or divert ST money, given how poorly the fans have been served since Newco, by simply handing it over. The problem however is the jeopardy the club may be placed in by doing so. Throw in the fact that the champion of such a scheme is far from entirely stable or trustworthy, and you really do have a rock / hard place scenario. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the event of an administration won't King be able to pick to Club up for a song? {albeit possibly without the assets (Ibrox, Murray Park etc)} 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjc Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 His words were; “I’ve lost £20m in Rangers already and I’m happy to lose another £30m as I love the team. I don’t want to be arrogant but it might be easier for me to lose £30m than it is for some fans to afford season tickets." and "But I would say I would probably have to put in £30m of the £50m over the period of time. And I could probably get other people to put in £20m." and ‘Would I be willing to invest £30m despite what happened previously? Of course. Sure.’ Seems to be 'over a period of time' is the telling phrase. Doesn't actually constitute an offer though does it? I wouldn't be taking that statement as Dave Kings' £30m sitting there ready to be invested tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjc Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 I think we could be heading for a Coventry scenario where one company owned the assets and another the club, they failed a a CVA because the largest creditor was the asset owner and were forced to go down the newco route and find another stadium. The spivs may feel they have a stronger hand though for a few reasons (1) it appears that newco`s in Scotland can not simply carry on in the same division like Coventry and Ibrox is a huge part of Rangers and there are no near by stadiums that could be used. That's how I'm reading it too.........could they not use Hampden in a worst case scenario? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross. Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 That's how I'm reading it too.........could they not use Hampden in a worst case scenario? Would Rangers fans turn out at Hampden? Given a large element of them blame the SFA/SPFL for a lot of what has happened, would they swallow their pride and fund the national stadium? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross. Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 They could but unfortunately many Rangers fans seem convinced the owner of that stadium is on the list of enemies, daft but there you go.

True....but surely by doing this (or even threatening to do so) would force the owners of Ibrox to do a deal......not as if it's a "multi use" venue..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
