It's a sad state of affairs when you can count the Catholics your club has signed in it's 140yrs without removing your shoes and socks. . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenockRover Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Sarver saying all the right things to the hoards (seems familiar) and the rivers of drool are almost at spate level already But.... It's about how much it'll take to unseat the incumbents that really matters. What price for them to Walk Away ? Given Sarver's stated pocket depth, I'll bet that price is rising every day... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also like how you suggest it's normal practice for clubs to offer a manager a place on the board after he leaves, it wasn't as if Jock retired from football management when he left Celtic. Go do some research them come back to me, that's a.good boy. Oh and the anti catholic policy at Rangers before Murray took over was very well documented.

dave.j Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 If there's one thing any faithful fan holds on to, it's the idea that no matter how much your team sucks now, it can get better in the future. Unfortunately for Phoenix Suns fans, Robert Sarver's in the business of mortgaging the team's future every chance he gets. Pleasing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aofjays Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 (edited) Tedi losing the plot again, superb. I'm pretty sure he's well aware he's talking absolute nonsense and only does it in an attempt to be a WUM. We'll find out in a few months he's another snafu type and really supports Aberdeen. ETA. This actually would make a lot of sense since it would explain how it is that Tedi knows so little about the club he "supports".

Ross. Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 (edited) Ashley's playing a blinder here. Is he really business partners with Sarver in the US? Seen a few tweets and comments elsewhere suggesting this. Edited January 8, 2015 by Ross. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This actually would make a lot of sense since it would explain how it is that Tedi knows so little about the club he "supports". I thought that from the start. His five stars cock-up still makes me think he'd never even read a Rangers match report prior to joining P&B. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tio Pepe Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 He owns 10%, you are acting like he has 100. A 10% shareholder will not be able liquidate anything just because he has had enough. Ashley has not invested any money in Rangers, you are contradicting yourself in this post, all he has done is given a few loans that have to be repaid alongside stealing a shed load of retail money that the club badly needs. Why does the club need money? The club is not a legal entity, has no personality, etc. How would it receive this money? Where woudl it keep it? How would it spend it? Something that doesn't exist in a tangible form cannot hold and utilise assets. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sting777 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Think most of us remain sceptical Tedi, but just enjoying how pissed off the haters on here seem to be, that a wealthy investor might ( just might) have an interest in one of the world's most famous and successful football clubs. How do you work that one out when your club is barely 3 years old...lol 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please don't try and rewrite history to pretend it was all just a big misunderstanding Had a wee swatch but couldn't find anything with regards to the C*ltic Board of any note before McCann's tenure but I'm all ears. Found a couple of interesting old photos's though? Would also be interested to see how or where Rangers anti RC policy is well documented, I haven't seen it recorded anywhere within the Club archives. Fair point on former Managers (even one with Big Jock's record) not being invited to take a place on the board, but as a similar notion when did it become a practice to offer your greatest ever manager a job in the Pools office. Cant recall that happening to Brian Clough at Forest, Shanks at Liverpool, Busby at Man Utd or Revie at Leeds, what an insult !!
